Flying from Dallas to Chicago to Detroit

DFW to MLI

The bathrooms at DFW are usually bad.  It also depends on which one you go to.  If it’ a high traffic area then usually it’s relatively clean but you just don’t know.  The most annoying part about trying to use the restroom at DFW are that the door open in.  I don’t have to tell you what a pain in the ass that is.  I can’t imagine someone who isn’t so fortunate and has a larger chair then me.  I can barely fucking fit!

Bumbershoot 2007 Festival

I was going through my e-mail just now and followed the following link path: www.vegoose.com > www.amesbros.com > Google Search: seattle bumbershoot festival > www.bumbershoot.com

What I found was yet another music festival I wish I could attend this year and maybe I will.  What's a Visa credit card for anyways?  Bumbershoot has one of the most gimp friendly accessibility page I've come across.  I don't mean technically but more so how it reads.  Discounted tickets, complimentary wheelchairs, what sounds like possible push service and even what to do if a venue entrance is not accessible.  Wow!  Not that any of these would sway my decision to attend or not but simply because the service is even there.  I think this is incredible.

Now of course I have not actually been to this festival and experienced it for myself so I'm hoping that someone who may read this has.  I hope that someone is a friend and will let me know how indeed accessible the festival is.

Six Flags Over Texas, Arlington

Most of my family was in town for a long week of bickering, secrets and miss-communication but in the midst of all that we made it out to Six Flags for some good ol' family fun. I love the thrill of roller coasters and being on the controlled edge so it's even more perfect when I get to skip the lines and head straight to the front row. Of course my family doesn't mind either. In fact it's sort of a ritual now when they come down for a visit. Anyways - here's my review.
