A Travel Agent's Story
hehe napulot ko lang kay kamote... eh nakakatawa kaya pi-nost ko na rin...
A TRAVEL AGENT'S STORY
A friend has been a Travel Agent for 30 Years. She says, of her 30 years of taking reservation requests from government officials, we are all in trouble.Here are some of her experiences with these people who run the country.
Senator Tessie Oreta asked for an aisle seat so that her hair wouldn't get messed up by being near the window.
I got a call from ex-Mayor Joey Marquez, who wanted to go to Capetown. Explaining the length of the flight and passport information, he interrupted me with, "I'm not trying to make you look stupid, but Capetown is in Massachusetts ." Without trying to make him look like the stupid one, I calmly explained, " Cape Cod is in Massachusetts . Capetown is in Africa ." His response: (click).
Congressman Mark Lapid called, furious about a Florida package we did for him and TV star Kris Aquino. I asked what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando . He said he was expecting an ocean-view room. I tried to explainthat was not possible since Orlando is in the middle of the state. He replied, "Don't lie to me. I looked on the map and Florida is a very thin state!" (so he expected to see the ocean on both sides of the hotel?!)
Sen Ralph Recto's popular wife asked, "Is it possible to see England from Canada ?" I said, "No." She said, "But they look so close on the map.
"Senator Lito Lapid asked if he could rent a car in Dallas . I noticed he had only an hour layover in Dallas . When asked why he wanted to rent a car, he said, "I heard Dallas was a big airport, and we will need a car to drive between the gates to save time.
"Senator Jinggoy Estrada called last week. He needed to know how it was possible that his flight from Detroit left at 8:20 a.m. and got into Chicago at 8:33 a.m. I tried to explain that Michigan was an hour ahead of Illinois , but he could not understand the concept of time zones. Finally, I told him the plane went very fast, and he bought that.
Congressman Ronaldo Zamora asked, "Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know whose luggage belongs to whom?" I said, "No, why do you ask?" He replied, "Well, when I checked in with the airline, they put a tag on my luggage that said FAT, and I'm overweight. I think that is very rude!" I looked into it and explained the city code for Fresno , California is (FAT) and the airline was just putting a destination tag on his luggage.
Former president-able now TV star Eddie Gil inquired about a trip package to Hawaii . After going over all the cost info, he asked, "Would it be cheaper to fly to California and take the train to Hawaii ?
"I just got off the phone with Senator Bong Revilla who asked, "How do I know which plane to get on?" I asked him what exactly he meant, to which he replied, "I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these planes have numbers on them.
"VP Noli De Castro asked, "I need to fly to Pepsi-Cola , FL. Do I have to get on one of those twin engine planes?" I asked if he meant fly to Pensacola , FL on a commuter plane. He said, "Yeah, whatever!
"Congressman Dilangalen called and had a question about the documents needed to fly to China . I reminded him he needed a visa. "Oh, no I don't. I've been to China many times and never had to have one of those." I double checked and sure enough, his stay required a visa. When I told him this, he said, "Look, I've been to China four times and every time they accepted my American Express!
"Senator Miriam Defensor called to make reservations, "I want to go from Chicago to Rhino, New York ." The agent said, "Are you sure that's the name of the town?" "Yes, what flights do you have?" replied the lady. After some searching, the agent came back with, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I've looked up every airport code in the country and can't find a Rhino anywhere." The lady retorted, "Oh, don't be silly! Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!" The agent scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, "You don't mean Buffalo , do you?" "That's it! I knew it was a big animal," she said.

have you guys seen desperate housewives last 09/30/07?
i've seen it on the news... and it was a scene when Terri Hatcher was being told by her GYN that she might be hitting menopause... and her exact lines were...
teri hatcher: "can I just check those diplomas because I just want to make sure that they are not from some med school in the Philippines..."
man i don't think that's fair... that line is totally uncalled for...

house md season 4
FOX · Tuesdays 9pm · Season 4 . Starts Sep 25, 2007
hay naku... nag start na yung bagong season ng fave tv series ko... and i can't wait na mapanood yung mga next episodes... para sa mga walang cable, you can watch house's latest episodes on http://onlinetvhouse.blogspot.com
double happiness
pag sumakay ka ng victory liner na bus papuntang olongapo... meron silang 15 minutes na stop over sa isang restaurant sa lubao pampanga na ang pangalan ay double happiness... pwede kang gumamit ng comfort room o kaya bumili ng meryenda...
just recently, sabay kami umuwi ni chockz sa bulacan and it was raining so hard... so pagdating ng double happiness, gusto kong kumain ng mainit na arrozcaldo, pero hindi ko naman kayang ubusin yung isang buong bowl ng caldo... so sabi ko kay chocky, hati na lang kami. bumili si chocky at kumain kami sa bus... ako yung naghawak ng mga bags namin tapos siya yung may hawak ng caldo, masyadong mainit yung caldo kaya hinalo-halo muna ni chocky at hinipan-hipan para hindi kami mapaso.
alternate, susubo si chocky tapos ako naman ang susubuan niya since ako nga ang may hawak ng mga bags. nakahalata na ko... dalawang subo sa kanya taz isang subo lang sakin, kalahati pa yung laman nung kutsara (dahil pag hinipan mo kalahati na lang matitira sa kutsara... ) mejo bitin yung kalahating kutsara kaya sabi ko kay chocky "beb follow up!!!" bigla kaming natawa dun sa sinabi kong yun... kaya bigla kaming humagalpak ng tawa sa bus... bigla akong nagtampo na tinawanan ako ni chocky kaya sabi ko ayaw ko ng kumain... busog na ko...
ang sabi niya sakin "beb ang pangit... biruin mo malalagay tayo sa news : MAGSYOTA NAG-AWAY DAHIL SA LUGAW!!!"
six years beb? masisira dahil lang sa lugaw? ang panget... pano mo ie explain yun sa magtatanong kung bakit tayo nag break? hehe
joke ko lang naman yung tampo tampo, nakakatuwa lang na tawa kami ng tawa sa bus, kami lang naman nagkakaintindihan kung bakit kami tumatawa....

January 18, 2007
nung christmas eve, i got the chance to talk to maryan again (salamat sa pldt 10 peso unlimited call!)
hindi na kami nabigyan ng chance na magkita ulit nung christmas para mag exchange gift (luge si meng ksi binigay na niya yung gift niya samin nung nag meet kami nung dec3!)
nweys habang nag uusap kmi nagtanungan kami kung anu ang gusto ko ma-receive na xmas gift... ang sabi ko DVD's gusto ko ng grey's anatomy o kaya SCRUBS o kaya ER o kaya buong season ng CSI VEGAS...
anne: pwede ba bitag na lang?
petski: pare, SOCO naman...
anne: alam ku na... ung compilation na lang nung bagong songs ni bitoy...
petski: huuu papa-burn ka lang kay kent eh...
anne: naalala mu pa si kent?
petski: photogenic memory pare...
anne: kala ku si kent ang photogenic...
petski: parang crime scene foto pare... maganda pagkaka imbalsama!
anne: hoy kahit itsurahing extra yun sa CSI e magaling naman!
petski: wala naman akong cnabi na di xa magaling eh... hindi lang talaga binibigay ng diyos ang lahat...
anne: galeng galeng mu talaga mang asar. di halata. for that papadala ko mas panget nyang picture nyahaha!
just always pray at night!
petski: di bale sanay na me makakita ng gore...
anne: hay pare ibang level na yun!
hay naku... bilib aku ako kay maryan...one day she would fall head over feet over someone, get hurt and then move on... just like that... plain and simple... although i can feel na kay kuhol panot siya na devastate ng husto...
one thing i admire about maryan is her unique taste pagdating sa guys... siguro dahil na rin sa impluwensiya ng kanyang mga fave tv shows... the x-files... roswell... buffy the vampire slayer... charmed at CSI. nweys here are some of the crime scene photos of kent... "the ultimate kuhol" (hindi niya ko pwedeng kasuhan ng copyright infringement noh? nakakalat lang yung mga pictures niya kung saan saan eh...)
