Prices to London

[Bichon Barb]

Have you noticed a large change in prices to and from foreign countries or are the big price increases just within the US?

I mean, I hope our friends from Europe, Asia, etc. still want to visit us with attitudes like this?

Pete Werner:

"Now in the two years we have been doing the show, I can really only speak for myself, but I'm pretty sure the rest of the team feels the same way, the funniest moment that we ever had doing this was our July 10th, 2007, show when Bob discussed the Naturalization Ceremony at the Magic Kingdom. We received a lot of feedback on that show; many of you have told us that it was your favorite as well. And the segment did have some darker humor to it, and I had edited the show after we had received some complaints about it. But even the original version that we put up on the site was heavily edited. Now, after a number of requests to put the unedited version into this show, I've decided to do just that. So, here is the version of that segment none of you ever heard. This is the unedited version of the 'Naturalization Ceremony at the Magic Kingdom.'"

Note: The show began with some banter between the podcast members. Then Mr. Bob Varley pulled out the "Fourth of July" Mickey Mouse Ears; they were a prop that he had wanted to share. The team laughed and made fun of the mouse ears. What follows is a part of their conversation.

Julie Martin - "Those are so ******** looking."

Note: The banter continued.

Pete Werner - "He looks like he's 'special'… wearin' that hat."

Note: The teasing about the mouse ears continued. Then Bob Varley attempted to describe the Naturalization Ceremony that he had attended on July 4th at the Magic Kingdom.

Bob Varley - "I actually went there because they were swearing in 1,000 immigrants to be US citizens. And they really did…"

Pete Werner - "Were you screaming racial slurs?"

Bob Varley - "No. I thought this was really good."

Pete Werner - "'Go back to Guatemala'?"

Note: The ethnic insults continued.

Bob Varley - "Just let me know when I can talk again. I'm gonna take a drink."

Kevin Klose - "Holiday Inn was at the Front Gate, catching 'em on the way out. 'You wanna be a maid?'"

Bob Varley - "Okay, I think I choked."

Kevin Klose - "We have Housekeeping positions available."

John Magi - "They went right from the indoctrination ceremony…"

Kevin Klose - "They were handed Housekeeping uniforms."

Bob Varley - "Well, we know this section's not gonna make it."

Kevin Klose - "Housekeeping or Gardner, take your pick."

Bob Varley -- "Delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete, delete…"

Kevin Klose -- "You know there were no Doctors in the ceremony, okay."

Corey Martin - "How are we gonna come back from this one?"

Bob Varley -- "I'm just gonna keep talking."

John Magi -- "We're never gonna be elected the best podcast ever."

Kevin Klose -- "Actually, if we put this in, we would."

Pete Werner -- "Yeah, really. Oh, I will try and salvage what I can, but very little'll survive."

Julie Martin -- "It's almost like he's talking about a shipwreck."

Kevin Klose -- "There were no survivors."

Bob Varley - "As soon as I said 1,000 immigrants, it went downhill."
