    Tipping Mousekeeping

    Point me to the specific facts you're citing. All I've seen are posts by people who say they do it but several surveys in which only about half say they do it. That's so weird that you know the behaviors of "most hotel guests in the United States." You must be more well-connected than you...

    Tipping Mousekeeping

    Just because you say something is factually incorrect doesn't make it so. Just because you and your friends do something doesn't mean you're in the majority or that it's common practice. I worked as a housekeeper during a few summers in college at a hotel in a touristy town and in my...

    STK Orlando now offers brunch, including The Ultimate Brunch For Two

    Gotcha, I misunderstood your point. Thanks for clarifying. I'm the same way with bottle prices.

    STK Orlando now offers brunch, including The Ultimate Brunch For Two

    True. I've gotten it as low as $80/bottle at a restaurant before but I don't know what STK charges regularly. I usually try to compare alcohol prices to retail, but that's just my personal preference.

    STK Orlando now offers brunch, including The Ultimate Brunch For Two

    Depends on the Veuve Clicquot. A regular bottle of Yellow Label goes for $30-60, but La Grande Dame goes for about $150. They don't specify which this is, so I'd assume Yellow Label. ETA: I just checked their website and it is Yellow Label.

    STK Orlando now offers brunch, including The Ultimate Brunch For Two

    Yes, STK is high-end. When did anyone mention Michelin stars? You obviously aren't understanding the difference, so I'll just leave it be.

    STK Orlando now offers brunch, including The Ultimate Brunch For Two

    No, you're misunderstanding me. Being "good" and "high-end" are two different things in this instance. Not saying that a "high-end" place can't be "good," but one of the hallmarks of a high-end place is that they don't include sides. Like other posters have mentioned, this includes places...

    If you've never been to a place that charges extra for sides, you haven't been to a high-end steakhouse. I'm not arguing that it wasn't good, but there's a significant difference between the two.

    STK Orlando now offers brunch, including The Ultimate Brunch For Two

    Exactly. There's a huge difference between the "really good" steakhouses he's referring to and the "high-end" steakhouses you mention. They are truly in a whole different category but if you've never been to one of the high-end places, those prices and charging a la carte for sides seem pretty...

    Purchasing tix via 3P - Tickets at Work

    I've used Tickets at Work twice over the last three-ish years and I was very happy with the process. They provided the tickets quickly, and the confirmation number can be added to your DME account just as if they were tickets purchased direct.

    Is DVC worth it?

    Thank you as well for the civil conversation. Always nice to learn from someone else so thank you for that, Ralph!

    Is DVC worth it?

    Fair enough. My apologies for not properly understanding the situation. You definitely have legitimate concerns and I appreciate them. I'm not in IT myself, just have a strong interest (I'm actually a tax accountant, so you're right about tax issues being paramount :)) and I used to be...

    Is DVC worth it?

    Sounds like you could use a password manager. Check out something like LastPass, 1Password, or Dashlane. They store all your passwords and can generate and store complex passwords so you can have unique passwords at each website, which greatly increases your online security. As someone with a...

    Tips for a pregnant woman at Disney World

    That list looks a lot more familiar. That said, she did ride Soarin', Frozen, and the Safari without issue, so I guess we didn't totally follow their recommendations. Frozen is very similar to Pirates from what I remember. I believe there is a drop and a couple bumpy-ish areas, but it wasn't...

    Tips for a pregnant woman at Disney World

    We went to WDW last November and my wife was 5 months pregnant at the time. She skipped the rides that Disney suggests you don't go on while pregnant, which you've identified in your list. I believe she also skipped 7DMT. We went on Pirates no problem, even with the small dip. Can't speak to...

    Bob Iger's contract is extended

    Disney's Termination Right and Iger's option of Termination for Good Reason are both separate from voluntary resignation and Termination for Cause, which are the two items I addressed earlier. From Iger's original employment agreement: “Termination Right” means the right of the Company, in its...

    Bob Iger's contract is extended

    I think you misinterpreted what that section is saying. If he voluntarily resigns or is fired for cause, then his consulting duties will not occur. If his employment terminates for any other reason, then he would immediately begin consulting duties.
