[SIZE=-1] A man called, furious            about a Florida package we did. I asked what was wrong with the vacation            in Orlando. He said he was expecting an ocean-view room. I tried to            explain that is 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."

My favourite:

A woman called to make            reservations, "I want to go from Chicago to Hippopotamus, New York"            The agent was at a loss for words. Finally, the agent: "Are you sure            that's the name of the town?" "Yes, what flights do you have?" replied            the customer. 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 Hippopotamus anywhere." The customer 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!"
