I finally joined the DIS...

[PJAY]

After spending the last few months looking over my wife's shoulder while she surfed the DIS discussion boards, I finally decided to make my own DIS account! I must admit, the amount of info on these boards is a little overwhelming but we found the DIS to be valuable while planning our last vacation this past October. I love the whole LGMH thing and the Fokker signal has made me laugh more than once---unfortunately I didn't get to use it on our last visit, but there's always next year!
Looking forward to learning more about Disney...

Welcome to the DIS family.

I'm new here too! I have been lurking for the past few months in preperation for our trip in January. Spent alot of time lurking the Resort Boards looking for discounts and pins. I saw the message here about the 4/3 deal for the first half of 2009 a day before it came out to the public. That helped me get on the phone right when the deal came out and I got what we wanted.

So, I decided to create an account to at least say "Thanks" :thanks: to the DIS board for helping me get a great discount when we needed it. :woohoo:

Aren't the two of you cute. It think it's great. Wish I could get my DH involved, but he knows less about the computer than I :)

The Fokker signal is from Meet the Parents (and its sequel Meet the Fokkers). The signal is you point to your eyes with your middle and index fingers (in a V) and use those same fingers to point at the Dis'er of your choice. It's hilarious!

Thank you for answering that question. I am assuming this is what you do when you pass by another fellow DISer.

No problem!

The only problem with using the "Focker" signal is that it is really just a small group here on the DIS that does it/knows about it. The LGMH is really the best way to recognize and talk to other DISers. Usually just a "Hey, I DIS too!" is the best way to start a conversation.
