The DIS Dad's Club IV - Man Laws & Cheese Balls

[afwdwfan]

I don't know, but if #500 is smart, I'm sure he'll read a bit of the thread, do the math and then make sure he's #501 before he applies to the club.

Thank you! If I was a lottery playing guy I would play that number in the lottery, but I can't afford to; I have to feed my Disney addiction instead.



To bad there is no initiation fee, I could have arranged a deal for a cut on the fee's for starting the thread.

Just noticed your tag and that you are from Ohio. On behalf of the Steelers I would like to apologize to to all the people of Ohio for treating your professional football teams (they get paid so I guess they qualify as professionals ) as doormats.

Keyboard Commando Attack!!!

Geez... I was gone for a few hours and this thread blows up!!!

Who knew today was the start of the DIS DAD's membership drive!!! IF # 400 owes us beer, what will # 500 owe us?

You won't let that go, will you?

Wow. It has been a busy month today. Welcome to all new members!

Going to the Yankee-Royals game at the Stadium on Sunday. I go to 2-3 games a year. Few years ago, was there with my daughter, nephew and Brother-In-Law and we see A-Rod hit #500. Same group is going on Sunday hoping to see A-Rod hit #600. Would be some strange coincidence if we got to see both milestones.

By the way, DisneyFed, Thanks for your service and stay safe...

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

I think I deserve an extra man card for all this hard work today! HAHA!
Mark - Thanks for making me turn my Pepsi into projectile liquid... all over the monitor!

Woohoo! I love having that effect on people.

Uh oh.... been a while since a Man Law has been declared. Do we have someone to second this motion?

Not in my mind! Don is definitely the man for the job.

He has taken the DDC to a "whoe nubba levva!"

This may be true, but we did finally get one on the Steelers last year.

And if your a baseball fan, you still have the Pirates (not saying the Indians are better).

If the subject stars with an "O" and ends with an "a" and sounds like someone just pull the trigger in the middle...I'm all over it.

Remember, for the first 6 weeks of the season, the only passes Roethlisberger will be making will be to underaged coeds in bars.

Oh yea, if this moron was any other player on that team except Troy Polamalu, they'd have been gone like Santonio Holmes. As much as I dislike hiim though, he sure knows how to pull out a win in the last few minutes of a game.

As someone who isn't a fan of any of the teams in the AFC North allow me to ask a simple question...

Weren't the Steelers 1-3 against teams from Ohio last year????

 

[stopher1]

9) I've been married for 6 years (this September) and we hope to go back to Hawaii (where we went on our honeymoon) for our 10 year anniversary.

...
We honeymooned in Aruba, and it was also our plan to get back there for our 10 year. Well, you know how things go. It's now our plan to get back there for our 15.

Huh. I guess some folks just make it happen. We honeymooned at WDW, and 10 years later we were back there. And 11, and 12, and 13, and 14, and 15, and 16... by 20 we'll want to go somewhere else perhaps...

...the number that the judges hold up whenever I walk by...

We will be driving. Down will be the evening of Aug 25, back north late on the 28th. I really hope we don't have to stop in Lebanon again.

Yeah, hopefully you won't have to visit Lebanon again! Be sure to honk. I'll be listening for it.

WELCOME to all of our new guys!!

What a morning. Go into a couple of meetings and come out what bam! Lots of new guys! Awesome. And just when we're getting ready to close up shop and move to a new place that's bigger, and brighter, and has more room for all of you.

I knew we'd be shutting down IV soon, but didn't figure it would be as quick as this morning is making it to appear.
