The Dis Dad's Club II

[tutter99]

Dang. I tried, but kept getting an error message. Maybe it's reached its limit?

Oh well. I'm a movie music geek, so this was right up my alley. Giacchinno's score was really good, too.

The site is getting hammered. Some of the people on the board where I found it commented that it took them 5 or 6 tries but eventually it went through.

Hello, looks like a fun thread.

I'm in.

I have 1 daughter. just turned 2 at the end of October. Taking her on her first Disney trip in March.

Don't listen to that other guy, I'm Canadian, how am I supposed to know what happens in Wisconsin. I'm lucky I can spell Wisconsin.

That's how you spell it right?

Good to see you here! Just watch out for Disney Daddy-O. He's been trying to make fun of Wisconsin, but only with what Google tells him about our fair state!

If you warn them as they get here, how can we have any fun.

Welcome to the club!

hey, you changed your picture!! tossed me a curve ball there. if i was ryan howard i would of missed it!! how you make out w/ your dvc question? i like reading those threads, they really get going on there. people have spread sheets and predict there futures and you get the finacial advisers throwing in there 2 cents.(which is about what they have left in the stock market.) its a rip.

I can't bring myself to finance DVC points, I want to pay cash and be done with it. We were ready to buy, but now we decided to finish our basement so I think DVC is on the back burner for a few months.
I think it was a good decision to do the basement because I got some pretty good news today. I often enter the sweepstakes to Orlando or WDW that mousesavers organizes on their site. I entered the Dollar Suave Ultimate Family Sweepstakes and today FedEx arrived with a letter stating I was a First Prize Winner. (Not Grand Prize Winner) I won a 52” Sharp Aquos LCD TV, a Bose home entertainment system, a Shard Aquos Blue Ray DVD player, a $250.00 gift card to Blockbuster Video, and a Cuisinart Popcorn maker.
The downside is I would have to pay Taxes on $5,000.00 but if I am finishing my basement I have the “Man Room” looking good.

Nice! You should put a sign over the door saying " All those entering this Man Room must follow MAN LAW!

I got an error too. I got a kick out of the legal fine print. "Offer only good while supplies last." Um, hello? It's an electronic download. How do you run out?

I was wondering the same thing!

You would have loved Food and Wine when I was there! It was the opening weekend for it, we took the boat from Hollywood Studios to World Gateway, between France and Canada you couldn't go more then 10 feet forward without having to turn right or left to go around a group of 6 or 7 people standing in a circle drinking their wine. WDW is the only place we let DS sit in a stroller since we normally full days at the parks, it came in quite handy that day for taking my frustrations out on people's ankles who were blocking the path.

Way To Go could be a new game - Stroller Bowling, I see these popping up everywhere even in the main aisles of stores and they are always blocking the way. I refer to them as Town Hall Meetings.

We played all the time growing up, I make a rink on the river in my backyard and my kids play on there now. I will try to get some pics up, when I go home.

I am a Leafs fan, please no jokes, I've suffered enough.

It's just not the same now, I am having a real hard time really getting into it the last few years. Hopefully they start to win a few more games and things get a little more exciting.

that sounds cool. i hope its not frozen already? dont worry, as a flyers fan, im not doing to well.

Mike,
I was just past your exit on Sunday. I had to make the return trip to Newark to get my in-laws from their cruise. I would have stopped but that would have been longer that I had to spend with them. I had my nine year old with me to keep me company (and sane) during the drive. We dropped the in-laws off at their house and we were heading home and my son starts compaining that his ears hurt. I asked him if he is getting an ear infection and he tells me no they hurt from listening to Nanny the entire trip home.

If you and Dave are ever in the Reading area (or any other Dads), look me up.

Kevin ~ You were within a mile of my house! We should do some kind of DIS Meet for all the "local" guys on this board.

NICE!

I think maybe next year we are considering a road trip in the summer, we have some relatives in NC, we would probably stop there. Alabama might be a little out of the way but one day I'd love to come check it out. I'm a foodie so, I hear there is some good BBQ down there. I may have to ask a few questions about where the locals eat, those are always the best places.

Our DD's in-laws live in Calabsh, NC, and we always get the BBQ in the vinegar sauce down there. We like it much better than the red sauces. I think you have to be pretty close to the shore to get that one, though.

We were talking earlier about rinks on my river, so heres a pic.

That's a river?!?! Looks like our Route 33 in February!

Grand prize 7 Night 8 Day trip with meals, ground and air, park tickets, $10,000.00 in cash. Total value $25,000.00.

That's really cool. I think the neighborhood should chip in and go buy a Zamboni.
That is the official vehicle of Canada, isn't it?
