At first I was really excited at the chance of going to California for the first time in my life. Problem was the air travel it took to get there. Living on the east coast, it took 2 planes to get to the airport in Ontario, CA. So going there, my first stop is in Dallas (I was flying alone). At the end of the flight the captain's voice goes on the intercom. Apparently the plane was last in line to land at the airport and the plane wouldn't have enough fuel to keep circling around the city. So the flight gets diverted to some place in Louisiana and we wait for about 2 hours on the ground. Finally we reach Dallas and I find out I have missed my connecting flight. So its another 3 hour wait at Dallas until I get a flight to California. By the time I reach it's about 2 a.m. and I can't find my aunt who was suppose to pick me up anywhere. By calling her I find out that she had thought my flight was canceled and that she was still in bed. So I have to wait another hour, by myself in the baggage claim area until she shows up. By the time I finally reach their house, it is about 4 in the morning when I suddenly realized I forgot my glasses in the terminal. So for the rest of my stay I was practically blind. WORST TRIP EVER. - Janis
 
So a few years ago my family planned a trip to Pensacola Beach. We were so excited! Well, when we were almost there, we noticed we were the only car going in that direction, and everyone seemed to be leaving. Finally we got to a point where a sheriff told us there was a hurricane coming so he sent us to the Red Cross Shelter to stay. We had to stay there for 2 days eating off of granola bars, fruit, and water. After the storm passed we left for our condo on the beach. When we got there of course we had to go swimming in the ocean! So we were in the water about a foot or two deep and I was sucked under and was taken away by the waves. I couldn't swim with the 6 feet tall waves crashing on my head, so I scream with every breath I could take. The last thing I seemed to remember was the whole beach running towards me, then I was out. I woke up laying on the beach with tons of people around me asking if I was ok. So after that I definitely stayed at the pool. Many other things happened on top of the MAJOR disasters, like my aunt getting stung by a jellyfish, my sister getting lost on the beach, and it rained EVERY day. But it was definitely a vacation I will never forget!! -  Doreen
 
When I was 10 years old, my dad, his friend, his friend's family, and I went on vacation down to Florida for Christmas break. But no, we didn't fly down, we went in this crappy camper that we bought for maybe 200 dollars. When we had finally reached Florida, the camper broke down in this area called "The Florida Bermuda Triangle", and then the camper started on fire! Since we had no running water, my dad and his friend had to douse it with beer. We had managed to get it as far as a small town gas station with a car shop, when the owners - a married couple - started fighting, causing the woman to cry. At this point, I would have just walked home. We got a taxi to Orlando (the taxi driver had called me a boy...), and we stayed in a hotel for one night that had bedbugs. The next hotel we went to was much better, but then one of my dad's friend's daughters, a friend of mine, started to fight with me, so we had a crappy time together. In the last hotel we stayed in, there were cockroaches everywhere. I'm still surprised that we had made it home in one piece. - Anonymous -

Sometimes I wonder what it will be like
when the aliens come to take us all away.
Most likely we'll be just outside Earth's
atmosphere when some idioy will start
wailing about his needing to use the bathroom.

(Brad Simanek) 
 

Many believe that sarcasm is the lowest
form of wit. Yeah, like *that's* true.
