09/18/11 - DVCers Take Over the Dream (S.S. Member Cruise 2011) - Thread #6

[Steamboat WillyNilly]

All this chat about keys made me remember the Dylan lyrics "coming in from Los Angeles, bringing in a couple of keys"

So now the TSA will be searching our bags looking for the keys you are bringing in.

Since you brought up a drug reference, I have been watching a show lately called Breaking Bad. A great show starring the dad from Malcolm in the Middle. The premise is he's an over qualified high school chemistry teacher that is diagnosed with cancer. He has money problems so he starts to use his chemistry knowledge to cook crystal meth to pay hospital bills and to provide security for his family after he's gone. It's very good! May not be for some people but the writing, directing and acting are top notch!

Wow, that's very cool ... it was a 'first' for both of us. Congratulations!

Enjoy the long weekend (and try to squeeze in some time for the Indy 500 on Sunday)

That's why we have the DVR - - set for both Monaco and Indy.

So now the TSA will be searching our bags looking for the keys you are bringing in.

Actually it was an Arlo Guthrie tune.

Coming Into Los Angeles
Words and Music by Arlo Guthrie

Coming in from London
From over the pole
Flying in a big airliner
Chickens flying everywhere around the plane
Could we ever feel much finer?

CHORUS:
Coming into Los Angeles
Bringing in a couple of keys
Don't touch my bags if you please
Mister Customs Man

There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico
No, he couldn't look much stranger
Walking in the hall with his things and all
Smiling, said he was the Lone Ranger

CHORUS

Hip woman walking on a moving floor
Tripping on the escalator
There's a man in the line
And she's blowing his mind
Thinking that he's already made her

CHORUS

Coming in from London
From over the pole
Flying in a big airliner
Chickens flying everywhere around the plane
Could we ever feel much finer?

CHORUS

Enjoying my Saturday morning, watching "Gnomeo and Juliet" with Lilly, when Jim comes in and says we have VOLES!! What???? What the heck are those? Looked it up online and I am totally grossed out. Terminix is on the way out.

 

[Truffle]

Holy guacamole Batman! We are almost 20 pages down! Reading to catch up, will post afterwards...

Junior, please add the 2 of us for the Signature Room. Thanks!

Wally and Terrie, are you flying into Midway (MDW) or O'Hare (ORD)? We will be happy to pick you up and take you to the hotel.

 

[Truffle]

Okay Kelly, now is the time to be pushing the 'go' button ... Happy Birthday anyway.

Just like your birthday party when you were a kid. You have to wait until everybody else gets their cake first...

 

[Truffle]

I want the "key" too, Wally!! I just go screwed on my Birthday....and it's not the "good" screw either!

CONGRATULATIONS! And your (belated) birthday treat was the following:

You just made Sue spew water out of her mouth AND nose all over my shirt when I read that out loud to her!!!

 

[Truffle]

not where I was going with that John, but since you have headed us down that path were you saying if you can't get a swan or pirate, a is the next best thing.

I have heard that they are hot...

That was Arlo Guthrie, not Dylan!

Good afternoon everyone! I thought I'd take a little break and see what's going on here. I bought a new coffee I'm trying. It's the Raspberry Chocolate Truffle by Van Houtte. Smells heavenly and tastes pretty good but too hot to be sure. We finally got our refrigerator fixed yesterday and also got the new one delivered. Just finished transferring everything into the new frig. I'm disappointed that they couldn't move the old (just fixed) one to the basement but it wouldn't go through the doorway. My youngest son is quite excited since he will be getting it since they one they have is an old one and he doesn't have a "beer" fridge like our oldest son and we do. Well, Tim's home now and he's gonna think I've been sitting here all day goofing off. Catch ya later!

Hey Wally! I think it's just us and you guys on Sunday. I tried getting a hold of Milford and Shawn but I haven't heard from them yet and everyone else seems to be doing other things that day because it's Fathers Day. Unless someone else speaks up, what do you two want to do that day?

We're game for whatever...

Jim and I are still trying to decide if we are staying Saturday night. I would like to and then head home Sunday afternoon. But with Father's Day and all, who knows what he wants to do. It's not like he did anything for me on Mother's Day. I had to cook, OK???????????/

Sounds to me like you guys should stay Saturday night and head out Sunday afternoon
