The Brass Ring

[Whine Lover]

For you younger folks :

" A brass ring is a small grabbable ring that a dispenser presents to a carousel rider during the course of a ride. Usually there are a large number of iron rings and one brass one, or just a few. It takes some dexterity to grab a ring from the dispenser as the carousel rotates. The iron rings can be tossed at a target as an amusement. Typically, getting the brass ring gets the rider some sort of prize when presented to the operator. The prize often is a free repeat ride. The phrase to grab the brass ring is derived from this device. "

What if you reached out, caught the Brass Ring....and then, didn't get your " prize when presented to the operator." ?

What happens then?

Do you keep riding the carousel? Keep reaching? Or, do you find another ride at the amusement park of Life?

( The questions are rhetorical. The Industry speaks for itself. )

Have a Nice Day....Even if this " Isn't your Father's airline business anymore."



P.S. - Oh, and wear your Hat.

Nothin' like some OJ and OE to start the day.
