A Vacation From My Problems (A Sept. 2010 Trip Report) - COMPLETED 12/14

[that's nice]

I can see I am slowly slipping down on the leader board.....

Going back to your Dec 1st update!

Sorry your MK day was 'shortened' due to the thunder... still seems like you enjoyed your time tough. Being squished in a tiny store doesn't sound like much fun.

Scotty looked like he was having fun with Chip & Dale. Great picture of you and Sarah....

Sorry you didn't get the table you wanted... but at least you got to see something!

Love the picture of Dave eating his pasta!!!!!! That's NICE!

Great pictures of POR! They almost make me want to stay there someday. LOL The pool area looks pretty cool. I'm glad DAve conquered his fears and make it down that slide!!!!

I CANNOT believe you had the tapes with you the whole time!!! Now that is comedy!!!!

Thanks for the great report!!! My movie quoting has fallen off, but hey, at least I beat Marv!!!!!

First off.. Glenn, you spend WAY too much time in front of the cathode ray tube, Dude. Either that or you also have a home theater in that smoky sub-floor of yours.

Maybe....or maybe I just watched the right movies for this TR. If he'd used "Little Women" or "Anne of Green Gables" quotes, you'd have been all over them.

Actually, of the 4 points I got this round, I've only seen 3 of the movies.

Thanks for the great report!!! My movie quoting has fallen off, but hey, at least I beat Marv!!!!!

That's More Than Nice!

Mark, You have some very good shots of the POR pool area. The glow that radiates off your Northern hued skin gives the perfect backlighting.

Glow? I appreciate the understatement. Last night, the Mythbusters tried to set fire to a boat by reflecting the sun's rays to a point on it using mirrors. It failed. If they had used my skin instead, that boat would have been ablaze in no time.

I can't believe you didn't go to Taco Bell instead of BK. Just sayin'.

One note I forgot was that we all wanted to go to...Chick-Fil-A! But none of us thought there was a Chick-Fil-A along that stretch. So, we finally finished up at Subway, hit the road, drove 1/4 mile and saw...well, do I even have to tell you?

I'll bet you weren't nearly as excited to go the other way on the Not-a-Monorail, were you?

I can see I am slowly slipping down on the leader board.....

Well, you do have a legitimate excuse.

Going back to your Dec 1st update!

Which one was that again?

Sorry your MK day was 'shortened' due to the thunder... still seems like you enjoyed your time tough. Being squished in a tiny store doesn't sound like much fun.

Yeah, that's why we left quickly. We figured it was almost better just getting wet.

Scotty looked like he was having fun with Chip & Dale. Great picture of you and Sarah....

Love the picture of Dave eating his pasta!!!!!! That's NICE!

Great pictures of POR! They almost make me want to stay there someday. LOL The pool area looks pretty cool. I'm glad DAve conquered his fears and make it down that slide!!!!

POR is awesome. I'd stay there anytime. Unless someone gave me a room at WL or AKL. Or the Polynesian.

I CANNOT believe you had the tapes with you the whole time!!! Now that is comedy!!!!

Luckily, when I edit the home movie together, I can seamlessly insert footage from 2006, and no one will know the difference! BWAHAHAHAHA...

Unless they spot 5-month-old Scotty. That might be hard to explain.

Thanks for the great report!!! My movie quoting has fallen off, but hey, at least I beat Marv!!!!!

Nice job, and thanks for reading! Now I'll have to read yours!

Maybe....or maybe I just watched the right movies for this TR. If he'd used "Little Women" or "Anne of Green Gables" quotes, you'd have been all over them.

Sorry, I couldn't help you there. By necessity, the quotes were slanted towards guy movies.

Actually, of the 4 points I got this round, I've only seen 3 of the movies.

So which one was the odd one out? I actually just got around to seeing Citizen Kane in the last year or so.

Hmmm, answering quotes from movies you've never seen???? I think you have to default that point and give it to me!!!

That's More Than Nice!

Awww Glenn, that's the nicest thing you ever said about me, calling me nice, since Tim got MORE than nice!!!

 

[that's nice]

Well, you do have a legitimate excuse.

Yes, I do... amd it wasn't my dog ate my homework!

Which one was that again?

The one after Nov. 30th.

POR is awesome. I'd stay there anytime. Unless someone gave me a room at WL or AKL. Or the Polynesian.

I happen to know a guy who got upgraded from CBR to the Poly.... not a bad upgrade huh?

Unless they spot 5-month-old Scotty. That might be hard to explain.

Nice job, and thanks for reading! Now I'll have to read yours!

Hopefully I'll have something tonight... key word: Hopefully.

That's More Than Nice!

Awww Glenn, that's the nicest thing you ever said about me, calling me nice, since Tim got MORE than nice!!!

I guess you can read it that way too! Hello Mr. Nice!

 

[marvali]

Yes, I do... amd it wasn't my dog ate my homework!

Only because that one's been taken!

The one after Nov. 30th.

Is that anything like "How many months have 28 days?"

I happen to know a guy who got upgraded from CBR to the Poly.... not a bad upgrade huh?

That's NIIIIIICE!!

Hopefully I'll have something tonight... key word: Hopefully.

Don't disappoint me man! I'll be watching, always watching, to see if I can be your first subbie........

I guess you can read it that way too! Hello Mr. Nice!

I'm going to officially change my username to Just PLAIN Nice!!!

Thanks for the spoiler alert!!! I have it on DVR but haven't had a chance to watch yet.

One note I forgot was that we all wanted to go to...Chick-Fil-A! But none of us thought there was a Chick-Fil-A along that stretch. So, we finally finished up at Subway, hit the road, drove 1/4 mile and saw...well, do I even have to tell you?

And it was probably right next to an electronic store running a 50% off sale on tapes for your antique camera.

Unless they spot 5-month-old Scotty. That might be hard to explain.

Not necessarily. If everybody becomes a kid again at Disney World then maybe it has the power to make a kid become an even younger kid again.

 

[that's nice]

Don't disappoint me man! I'll be watching, always watching, to see if I can be your first subbie........

ROZZ- MONSTER'S INC!

If and If I get it started.... watch around 9-10 pm EST. Just don't be the 2nd post. I would like to have that for my TOC ok?

I'm going to officially change my username to Just PLAIN Nice!!!

I like it!!!! Nothing like starting your post count back at ZERO!

 

[All7OfUs]

Tim, that's during dinner. Push it back a couple hours, k?

 

[glennbo123]

So which one was the odd one out? I actually just got around to seeing Citizen Kane in the last year or so.

Believe it or not, "The Sixth Sense" was the movie I've never seen. Although "I see dead people" is a pretty well-known quote. I even used a morphed version for a chapter title in my TR.

And althouh I've seen the movies that the "depth charge" quote and the "go crazy" quote were from, I didn't really remember them. I just recognized that they looked like they were quotes so flipped on the projector and put on a few reels until I found the right one.

Hmmm, answering quotes from movies you've never seen???? I think you have to default that point and give it to me!!!

What we have here...is failure....ta communicate.

I guess you can read it that way too! Hello Mr. Nice!

As in "no more Mr. Nice Guy"?

 

[that's nice]

Tim, that's during dinner. Push it back a couple hours, k?

I'll see if I can work on that for you!

As in "no more Mr. Nice Guy"?

That sounds good too!

-2 Yippee, I'm ahead of you now!!!

If and If I get it started.... watch around 9-10 pm EST. Just don't be the 2nd post. I would like to have that for my TOC ok?

Just make 3 real quick posts, and we can edit the third one from "that's" to "Just PLAIN" even if someone else gets in too quickly!

I like it!!!! Nothing like starting your post count back at ZERO!

Hey, if nobody knows it's me, maybe I'll get treated better!!!

Tim, that's during dinner. Push it back a couple hours, k?

Oh sure, give a man the whip and you think you can control him forever.......

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Hmmm, answering quotes from movies you've never seen???? I think you have to default that point and give it to me!!!

Hey, I awarded points for movies I've never seen. It's all good.

Awww Glenn, that's the nicest thing you ever said about me, calling me nice, since Tim got MORE than nice!!!

I happen to know a guy who got upgraded from CBR to the Poly.... not a bad upgrade huh?

WOW... that's some serious industrial-strength pixie dust, right there.

Hopefully I'll have something tonight... key word: Hopefully.

Sounds great, but the Titans-Colts game starts at 8:30. You remember the Titans, don't you?

I'm going to officially change my username to Just PLAIN Nice!!!

Thanks for the spoiler alert!!! I have it on DVR but haven't had a chance to watch yet.

D'oh! Sorry about that. I won't spoil the other myth, I promise. And in all honesty, you should have seen it coming. They've already tried the sun thing twice on the show and busted it both times.

And it was probably right next to an electronic store running a 50% off sale on tapes for your antique camera.

I didn't notice, but with my luck, I wouldn't be surprised.

Not necessarily. If everybody becomes a kid again at Disney World then maybe it has the power to make a kid become an even younger kid again.

Oooh, that's good. I'll have to steal that. Then again, it did nothing for my gut and receding hairline.

Tim, that's during dinner. Push it back a couple hours, k?

But not during dessert, either. Or after-dessert coffee. Or second breakfast. Or elevensies.

Believe it or not, "The Sixth Sense" was the movie I've never seen. Although "I see dead people" is a pretty well-known quote. I even used a morphed version for a chapter title in my TR.

Gotcha. The theme in this chapter was "movies with memorable endings" since it was the last chapter, so I'm glad I didn't actually give away the ending and annoy ANOTHER reader with spoilers!

And althouh I've seen the movies that the "depth charge" quote and the "go crazy" quote were from, I didn't really remember them. I just recognized that they looked like they were quotes so flipped on the projector and put on a few reels until I found the right one.

That's some quality research.

What we have here...is failure....ta communicate.

This one would have been a perfect one to include in the story about my parents and their dinner choices. Sigh.

ROZZ- MONSTER'S INC!

-2 Yippee, I'm ahead of you now!!!

You mean that wasn't it?

Hey, if nobody knows it's me, maybe I'll get treated better!!!

I've seen your posts on the other TR's, and you are most definitely a completely innocent victim of the others. No sense of bringing it on yourself whatsoever.

Oh sure, give a man the whip and you think you can control him forever.......

The whip was pretty cool. You have to give her that much.

Hey, I awarded points for movies I've never seen. It's all good.

Why should I be surprised........you ALWAYS take Glenn's SIDE!!!

Sounds great, but the Titans-Colts game starts at 8:30. You remember the Titans, don't you?

From the movie of the same name!!!

You mean that wasn't it?

Yes, but I do Jeopardy movie quotes......and he didn't put it in the form of a question, Sooooo, negative points!!!

Now, now. Complaining about it will only get you into more trouble. Go to your room and think about what you did.

I'll take, "Desperate Schemes for Meaningless Points" for $1,000, Alex.

Sorry, Marv.

Absolutely! That's why I didn't bother to name the movie.

How did you know that was the order of things around here. Round of Port precisely at 5:00, you know, Old Chap.

I aim to please.

Is it bad that when I read this, instead of thinking about the real Jeopardy, I think about how "Sean Connery" could re-read this into something inappropriate on SNL?

 

[that's nice]

I aim to please.

LOL... I thought it was taking aim?
