Yo, I Got Your Chit Chat Right Here

Like hell duck and cover. If I'd known there was hail coming this way I'd have saved ice money and sat the blender outside.

Gawd... you are so practical!!!!

[stacktester]

OK this is the deal. I made a batch of Kungaloosh for Chris and I. He and Jen went to Wal-Mart and haven't returned. Well I'm on number 3. There's just about enough for us to enjoy 1 a piece before I head to MGM. If he doesn't hurry up that's gonna be we could've enjoyed a nice Kungaloosh. BTW, we're not breaking out any massage tables tonight unless he's giving Jen a massage.

This is who's here so far. Kevin who I met in March is in 1400. Tungo is there too. Jen and I are in 1000. The GG should be fun. We let Mean Gene know to look out for Debbie. I told him she was an unauthorized guest and to look for her trying to peddle in here. If she makes it in I'm going to take her down to the settlement and shoot all the otters in front of her.

P.S. Is this a mild attack on Debbie and will I get any points?

[des1954]

Donnie- Ya "otter" keep away from the otters. They are highly trained Guerillas.

Not GORilla, GUERilla. Huge difference. HUGE!!

[des1954]

P.S. Is this a mild attack on Debbie and will I get any points?

Rhonda!!!! Donnie's picking on me again!!

Points!!! Where are the points!!

Oh, of all the inhumanities!!!

[ntsammy5]

but I just found out that a really good friend of mine who is a cavalry squadron commander and deployed to Afghanistan, recently lost 2 KIA. He's having a hard time with it. No surprise. If you get a chance say a prayer for him and the families of the two men who were KIA. Thanks.

[2goofycampers]

Will do.

[des1954]

That really stinks.

[AuburnJen92]

It's 5PM,,,, Does Jen know where Chris & Donnie are??:confused3 :rotfl2:
Jen was making a liquor run, so no....

This is my fault...I forgot to tell Donnie that only I went to not Wal-Mart, but Super Duper Target. He could have knocked on the door and shared the testing brew. Chris was putting together the vinyl musket mickeys in the ac. I am getting the full silent treatment from Chris. Geesh! I go and get the man his favorite beer and Kungaloosh supplies and this is what I get?:confused3

[g8trmom1]

So Jen, getting the cart ready for the Parade, how does it look??:goodvibes

[AuburnJen92]

I am actually starting on it tomorrow, good thing too...it would have been hell towing BK1's cart with all those decorations!

[clkelley]

Well, only 7 hours till I get to start driving South (at the most).

Today's useless fact:

The original game of "Monopoly" was circular.

[clkelley]

Oh, another useless fact:

I get to go to Property Control this weekend :cool1: :banana: :yay: :cheer2:

Just a friend of a friend who's cousin brought his car into DH's shop :rolleyes1

(Actually some friends of ours from our kids high school baseball days, has a daughter that recently started an Imagineering internship). I agreed to haul a box of stuff down to her.

[ftwildernessguy]

Property Control is a crap shoot - sometimes it is a treasure trove of the greatest stuff ever, other times it is full of junk. My wife got a neat Mickey figurine holding a plate which retailed at over 50 bucks for about 5 because the plate was broken. I just bought another plate at another store on property and glued it on. A couple of years ago I got a limited edition set of pins for about 10 bucks.

[ftwildernessguy]

Had a great visit with friends from Orlando area yesterday who were up for a visit. They are both CM's. He works at the gift shop at OKW and she works at the gift shop at AKL.

I love Property Control. I have a friend who would take us the last few years. I can't wait until October because I will be able to go this time and won't have to have anyone take me. :goodvibes I love to take my family there. They all think it's a treasure trove.

[Born 2 Fish]

Everybody have a great day.

Auntie--- You and Bob made it just fine - both pictures!!! Ami kept you from getting all wrinkled!! Carol was up all night & day, didn't nap, and when DH & I drove her to the outpost to catch a bus to go to P.I., she planned on having a LOT of adult beverages!!! She could have saved a bunch of money and just gone to Gatordad's cause BK1's blender was getting quite a work-out!!:thumbsup2

[des1954]

My DH's crown fell out when we were having a burger at Roaring Forks this evening. Why do these things always happen on the weekend???

Wait til you see what I did to your pic Phyllis. You were in the golf parade and yes you looked good. As a matter of fact we had you in 2 pics. It's tonight at the GG when you're hanging on the tree with Al and Rog that I'd be worried about. We'll send you a pic. BTW, I'm in charge of decorating your pics.

Well, I'm thrilled to hear that we were included in the parade :laughing: ...but just a little worried:confused: about this here decorating you've done.
Guess I'll have to wait and see.
On the tree with Al and Rog..sounds like we'll be in good company! :thumbsup2

[auntie]

Knock..knock...anybody home?:confused3

Gosh..it's quiet around here.

I just got a text from Ami saying they hadn't been kicked out yet!:thumbsup2

[VACAMPER]

she also said something about stacktesters beans causing so many fireworks some of them went behind the 300 loop for a better view.

[auntie]

I'm a little concerned over this editing to my photo that supposedly Stackster/Donnie has done. I hope I don't regret having sent it.

[auntie]

That doesn't sound good either.

[AuburnJen92]

I'm a little concerned over this editing to my photo that supposedly Stackster/Donnie has done. I hope I don't regret having sent it.

He wrote something to the effect of I am renting Tina's 5'er or something like that. He was so busy defending himself because everyone was calling him stalktester (because he supposedly knows EVERYONE on the boards personally) and strollerslayer (because he used Gatordad's youngest child in the stroller to try and break his fall last night) He also almost killed G8trmom1's mickey lamp post, which would have just ended Donnie's life right there...;)

MsGus made Donnie do a sobriety test in front of his golf cart and he, of course, failed miserably, so he was banished to ride shotgun in the cart parade.

[des1954]

Well Jim, ya went and got TWO threads closed!! You da man!!! Now....go book an off-site resort to prevent someone else from geting it!! :banana:

[auntie]

I saw that. Oh..and I spit out my coffee when I read your remark about "peeing on a forest fire!":rotfl2:

[kc5grw]

My oldest DD just turned 15 today. She's going to get to go the the Jonas Brothers this Wed in Dallas. She's pretty excited about that. DW and second DD will be going also. They're all excited.

Time to start the driver ed thing. :eek:

[auntie]

Wishing Victoria the happiest of days!:wizard: Sounds like she'll have a great time, and a birthday to remember for sure!

[ftwildernessguy]

I was just over on the other side of the camping forum - what is it with everybody wanting to know what the "best" loop is?

[ntsammy5]

100 loop.

I'm doing an intell estimate on that right now.

[Pirate-Jeff]

The best loop -----------is ---the 4700 loop ---- yea that's it .

Or is it the one without us Dis-camping members in it

[bigdisneydaddy]

I hate the loops that have all the tourists in them

[We4mickey]

We prefer the loop with the largest campsites, lots of privacy, close to the comfort station, bus stop and pool, and don't forget it has to be near trails end and the boats too!

[ftwildernessguy]

I have found that after several Kungalooshes, it doesn't really matter what loop you're in. In fact, I spent a great night in a fantastic loop once, and woke up in the parking lot for the Richard Petty driving experience.

[BigDaddyRog]

LOL.....Im not particularly picky either...as long as I can fit my crap on it, Im good. Im not even opposed to the 1900 loop...but then again, I aint an RVer and dont need all the backing in room that you guys need.

Not all from the same sister. I have three sisters and three sisters in law. Although my oldest sister does have five. We had a big party when her Dh finally got snipped.

[LONE-STAR]

[stacktester]

or the lady that took your daughter's pool chair...:lmao:

Oh that's a whole another story. That woman was just a plain you know what. This woman took my daughters chair at the pool that had her cell phone, towel and some other stuff in a bag and tossed it on the ground. I went over and asked her what was up and she said the lifeguard says if a chair is vacant for more than an hour it's your's. I said so have you been here an hour? She says no the man sitting next to it said nobody had been there in over an hour. I called her an inconsiderate B!$(# and her hubby stood up. I said fine let's go. He mumbled and walked away. I had my phone on speed dial to call Gatordad if he beat me up.:lmao: That was pretty above and beyond anything I've seen. The cell phone btw was in water. Luckily it didn't hurt the phone.

[VACAMPER]

That happened to me to. I had all three of my kids put their things on one chair. didn't want to take up to many chairs since they would be in the pool most of their time. This guy walks over and just tosses everything off the chair and plops his fat A$$ down. I didn't confront him though. I'm a coward.

[PolynesianPixie]

I'm here! Thanks for asking! It was an adventure getting home, delayed and cancelled flights, a 2 am fire alarm going off in the hotel I was staying in......but I made it! When I got home, the house was clean, the laundry done, Scott grilled cheeseburgers and a there was a big poster welcoming me home in the kitchen......I need to go away more often! :goodvibes

I had the BEST time! I'm so glad I went!

You should have told them the bag wasn't reserving the chair it was to keep someone from sitting in the pee/poop from that sick 2 year old over there!!!!

That why we take our own chairs to the pool. Some people think there special

[We4mickey]

So I've looked at all the pictures that are up so far. Did Roz aka Rhonda show up? Inquiring minds want to know. I'm thinking not, since it sounds like it got kind of wild. She would have kept you all under control. That or she just saw you all and walked away. :rotfl:

No, Roz didn't make it. She gave some lame-O excuse like she was moving or something. Sheesh, she'd rather move than hang out with us! The nerve!

I'm just picking....cause I really wanted to meet her! She's a legend in her own time :goodvibes

I'm also very scared. I don't think I've ever posted that picture. You're making me wonder what else I have on my photobucket account....

[2goofycampers]

I'm also very scared. I don't think I've ever posted that picture. You're making me wonder what else I have on my photobucket account....

This got me to thinking, so I checked my photobucket account and it said my album had 2070 hits per month, holy cow! Go to account options and check out your settings.

[Us3]

it is that darn work thing during the school year...principals just aren't too kind to let you take off to jaunt to disney when there is work to be done!;)

Darn, that sure does put a damper on fall trips to the Fort huh? :upsidedow

[BigDaddyRog]

This got me to thinking, so I checked my photobucket account and it said my album had 2070 hits per month, holy cow! Go to account options and check out your settings.

2070???? Man.....thats unreal!!!!...Im gonna go check mine.

[BigDaddyRog]

I have 60060 per month!!!! I freaked at first, but then I read their definition of "hits per month"....

This is the total number of times someone has viewed your digital content through direct linking. If you have four images or videos linked from your Photobucket account to a webpage and one visitor views the page that is four 'Hits'. Four visitors to a webpage with only one image direct linked is also four 'Hits'. Viewing your images directly through your Photobucket account does not add to the 'Monthly Hits'.


I post pics from my site almost every day, so everytime one of you guys see one of those pics posted here, it counts as a hit on photobucket.

[PolynesianPixie]

7790

I'm glad you told me what that means. I'da probly died.

[seabee]

Not all from the same sister. I have three sisters and three sisters in law. Although my oldest sister does have five. We had a big party when her Dh finally got snipped.

:rotfl2: Would that be a "ribbon cutting celebration"?

[BigDaddyRog]

Oh...I AM!!!!! But as much as I dearly love you and Frank both....I dont have enough hours in a day to visit your photobucket acct 69 times a day!!!

I just realized that every post I make counts a a couple of hits to photobucket because of the pics in my signature!!!

[seabee]

Rog, dear....sorry, but you have to share this date with me.....it is mine and Scott's anniversary. Lucky 13 today!

Happy Anniversary Ami!! http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/23/23_28_125.gif Here's to many more years together!

[seabee]

Gees, now I'm going to have to go check my account. If you guys saw some of the stuff my DH has on there you'd think we were wackos! He posts some of the sickest stuff on his friends' pages. Of course they think it is hilarious.:confused3 :sad2: They are worse then the kids.

[BigDaddyRog]

I like machine guns, Nicole!!

[seabee]

I wish they had accidently cut a little more off than they did. ( i would say a little more but he couldn't have much) he's one of those men that thought she should have a dozen and he shouldn't have to help with anything.

I thought it was Ami's anniversary.

[PolynesianPixie]

It is. She gets to go out and I'm cooking. Something is wrong with this picture.

[ntsammy5]

I'm not sure I can follow these last few posts, so I won't try.

Good to see you're feeling better Jim.

As for photobucket, every time someone looks at one of your posts that has a picture in it it will count as a hit. Like Rog says that includes pictures in your signature. I'm running at like 6,000 hits a month. Don't worry about it.

[kc5grw]

Happy Anniversary Ami!

[Us3]

I licked a pickle because I'm a ninja. :lmao: Thanks, I needed that laugh.

My house was hit by lightning last night! We are really lucky though...the house is still standing! We're still waiting on the structural people to get here. We have some shredded wood in the attic and a hole on the corner of the house under the roof line where it exited and travel down the gutter down spout. It blew the phone box cover off and into the yard about 25 feet away! We have a ton of fried electronics....the surge protectors strips did nothing for 'em. Tv's, modem and router, my work voip phone, sterio receivers etc ..all toast. Strange as it sounds...the power stayed on...but the cable and phone are out?? Oh well, the kids are ok and the house is standing...so we are LUCKY!

[2goofycampers]

We will be at the F&W Festival this year and the "eat to the beat" band is Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. Who the heck is that? Are they any good?

[Shannone1]

Hi everyone :wave2: I have missed all of you so much !! I am sooooo far behind on this message boards so I am not even going to try to catch up. I am going to try to go through and look at the 4th of July GG threads so I can check out your pictures and reports...I hope you all had a great time.

I also hope everyone else had a great 4th of July...even those of us not lucky enough to be at the fort !!

I just got my laptop back today from the Geek Squad. They had to replace a couple of key componants including a mother ship or something, :lmao: Luckily my hard drive was fine so all of my pictures and files are safe !!

I should have no trouble staying caught up now...if I missed anything really important, please let me know. I HATE feeling so out of the loop !! :sad2:

[VACAMPER]

welcome back shannone, i've wondered what happened to ya.

[BigDaddyRog]

Do you still have bats in the belfry?

[ftwildernessguy]

I never get in trouble, I never get Pm'd, I never get points. Boy I tell you, one of these days I am gonna go off on someone, and really let them have it with a bunch of 8 letter words....

Rhonda has given me a couple of warnings, but no points. I still have a "get out of jail free" card.

[Shannone1]

Do you still have bats in the belfry?

YES, actually :headache: We came back from 2 weeks of camping to find a dead bat in our bathroom sink and bat mess in the loft again :scared1: . We hired a new company and the are taking a different approach. They are even giving us a 5 year guarantee. They are out here right now sealing up the whole house. Once they are done we are going to wait 5 days to give any that were trapped inside a chance to die.

Thank goodness for the motorhome...we are camping in the driveway right now. We still use the house during the day, but come evening we run out here. We should be back in the house by the beginning of next week. :thumbsup2

[PolynesianPixie]

Wow Shannone! What a mess! Good luck!

It's nice to have you back, though!

Glad you all are ok. A customer around here had there house hit by lighting and some how the strike put a whole in the gas flex line to the water heater and they had a 3 foot flame burning in the attic. Here is the scary part it had been burning for 3 days before they found it.

Why is it that we sit on this board everyday....slamming and insulting and belittling each other with no regard for each other's feelings....yet we all get along so well in spite of that. But let someone who, to MY knowledge has never laid a single post on this board get a little tickle of a slam and they get all bent outta shape??? If they are lurking, they MUST HAVE NOTICED that we are a "who can out gross who" type of bunch...sometimes the thickest people have the thinnest skin.

Go figure people sometimes just cant take a joke. Have I told you the one about the. Oh wait nevermind

i'm pretty thick. When I went to check in at the Fort, the clerk said to me, who's that behind you, and then said, oh, it's still you.

:rotfl2: thats funny :thumbsup2

HUH? I used to be able to keep up, but lately I am soooo not in the know!!

Well come out and play.

YES, actually :headache: We came back from 2 weeks of camping to find a dead bat in our bathroom sink and bat mess in the loft again :scared1: .

WOW that sucks hope it turns out ok for yall.

[Us3]

Thanks guys. Yeah, we have about a 3 foot hole under the eve on the side of the house. The lightning found the metal on the gutter and traveled about 30 feet down the down spout before it hit the phone box and cable box. Just found out that the garage door opener is fried too.:rolleyes: The guy is finally here now...so he's on the roof to find where it actually entered the house. We have a couple of rafters in the attic that look like string cheese...completely shredded! :eek:

Rog, Bud has a list going of all of his electronics! We have to have an electrician sign a lightning affidavit and they *should* cover it all.

So I'm playing on the internet with my aircard. VOIP service was transferred to my cell phone...so I guess I have to get back to work.:rolleyes:

[Shannone1]

WOW that sucks hope it turns out ok for yall.

Thanks !!

[auntie]

Okay...we only finished up with school here on June 27th. Yesterday I received a "back to school" sale from Disney Rewards. Crazy. It's been all of a week. :rolleyes1
Already getting the catalogs with the fall items in them as well. They really rush the seasons. I feel as if the summer just started, and here come the fall ads.

Glad to hear everyone is okay. We lost all of the electronics at our cottage last month because of lightening. Be sure to check your refrigerator. We thought it was okay because it was on, but the compressor got fried. Insurance covered everything.

please, please, please, find a REALLY GOOD ELECTRICIAN to check all the wiring in your house...my father does lightning strike repairs on the big sportsfishing yachts and it takes a while to find all that was "altered", no one finds everything the first go around...

Thank you both for the advise. We keep finding things!! Perhaps its a good thing that the electrician and cable folks couldn't make it out here today. We found the garage door opener and two dvd players that are toast too. :rolleyes:

We only have 4 weeks until school starts again! DD9 is already bugging me about "back to school shopping". Since it hot here until late fall...perhaps I should humor her and go shopping while the summer clearance is happening! :rolleyes1

Anyone heard from Debbie today? :confused3 I haven't noticed her post. She's usually popped in by now. I hope her husband is okay. He was having a problem with his back.

We only have 4 weeks until school starts again! DD9 is already bugging me about "back to school shopping". Since it hot here until late fall...perhaps I should humor her and go shopping while the summer clearance is happening! :rolleyes1

Seems like we've ended a bit late. June 27th, and we're starting Sept. 3rd. It's a shorter summer break than usual.

By the way auntie, it was an honor to have you and Bob on our cart! Ami didn't join us on the cart until the end, so we put you right up front!

[Gatordad]

Auntie was alright, until her makeup ran in the rain that night.

I hope that squirt was from a water gun and not part of his "outdoor plumbing".

My house was hit by lightning last night! We are really lucky though...the house is still standing! We're still waiting on the structural people to get here. We have some shredded wood in the attic and a hole on the corner of the house under the roof line where it exited and travel down the gutter down spout. It blew the phone box cover off and into the yard about 25 feet away! We have a ton of fried electronics....the surge protectors strips did nothing for 'em. Tv's, modem and router, my work voip phone, sterio receivers etc ..all toast. Strange as it sounds...the power stayed on...but the cable and phone are out?? Oh well, the kids are ok and the house is standing...so we are LUCKY!


WOW!! I'm glad you all are ok. Good luck with all the damage, that is crazy. Thank goodness your family is ok.

Awww, thanks, Phyllis! I was actually BUSY at my office yesterday, and then had to work at THD last night. I left home at 7:30a & didn't get home until 10pm. Can you say, POOPED OUT?? DH is going for an MRI on his back tomorrow. We'll have to wait & see what comes of that.

Sonya- Lightning struck our former home once. It was really weird, as it struck the cap to the fireplace in the family room. This HUGE electric ball hung in front of the TV in the family room for only a split second, but long enough to imprint on your brain. The picture tube on that TV was de-gaused, but otherwise, okay. The drywall nails on either side of the fireplace "poked" out, too. The lightning nailed everything on one particular circuit which led to the master bedroom & garage. It got the TV, VCR, cordless phone, & clock radio in the bedroom. In the garage it got the garage door opener & timer to the sprinkler system---but not the air handler for the A/C. It also got a water pipe under the slab that must have been too close to wire mesh or rebar. Thankfully, we noticed the sound of running water in just a few days, or we would have had a sink-hole under the house.

Do as Jen said....have an electrician check EVERYTHING. Oh, and BTW, surge protectors do not protect against a lightning strike. They only prevent a power surge on the electrical lines from harming equipment. If you truly want to protect expensive electronics from getting fried, you need to get a battery back-up. We have one on our TV & sound system.

Battery back up won't help. Lightning can and will jump the circuit board. Lightning can jump from the clouds to the ground it can jump a circuit board Just ask my neighbor it fried every electric circuit in his house. Even the Batteryback up and his Generator. Not to mention the firewood all over my back yard when the lightning hit the tree next to this house. The clean up crew said the lightning hit the tree jumped to the house fried everything in there came out the electric meter down the wires to the generator fried it ran back up the power wires to the tranformer that the nieghbor hood shares fried that and than jumped to the ground. The tranformer box looks all swollen now. the lightning also fried every thing that was hooked to any electric circuit in the house from light bulbs to TV's even his Gas stove

I will post a picture of the electric box just as soon as I can take a picture and upload it.

[des1954]

You're correct on one point....if the lightning directly hits the electronics, ZAP, POOF, POP!!! Gone for good. However, if it hits the romex & travels via that path, the battery back-up will take the hit first. Bottom line, nothing is sacred when it comes to lightning. You can only protect yourself the best way you know how.

I have seen lightning do some weird things - living in the lightning capital of the country (West Coast of Florida). Back in the days you HAD to rent telephone equipment from your local telco, I saw many a phone that had been melted by a direct lightning hit. I've also seen "glass" made from lightning running thru the ground or sand. It makes a beautiful "tree branch" like pattern.

Those so called "surge protectors" do more harm than good. I have seen a few actually be the cause of the fire. The last big storm we had knocked power out to a little over 1/3 of the community I work in (old, poorly maintained infrastructure) The only fire we had on my shift from the storm was from a surge protector.

I'm still stuck on the spider one. I figure I sleep with my mouth closed so someone is eating my share of spiders at night each year.

the spiders are real big in Tx, I'm sure you would know if you would have eaten one.
