10/24/2009 Bash on the Boat (I'm with B.O.B.) - Thread #29

[GOS]

we cancelled our hotel reservations and we're taking sleeping bags and camping out by the front gate.

Thanks Heather! See you at the terminal!!

We will indeed. Have a great time at Dizzyworld.

OK, the excitement is really starting to kick in now. I picked up a new suitcase set from Costco (1 suitcase to check and 1 carry on). I also just made an impulse camera purchase. For me, it's all about the pictures. Memory will fade over time, but pictures keep them alive. Sony has a new camera out that has exceptional low light performance and can produce panoramic pictures "inside" the camera. You sweep the camera in a smooth arc up to 256 degress and, voila everything fits in the picture! Of course, a new camera for me means that Megan (DD11) gets to have the "old" camera for herself.

Things are looking up that we will definitely make it for the cruise. I had mentioned previously that there was some doubt. My Father was recently diagnosed with a serious condition and the outlook is not good. I flew to see him right away. The short term good news is that he is doing a bit better and should be coming home today or tomorrow. He just sent me a photo from his iPhone showing his hospital room and saying that he is feeling pretty good today.

Safe travels to everyone who is already on their way or soon to depart. We'll see you on the ship!

Ok Doc

What if the flux capacitor doesnt work though?!

Then you're stuck in the year 1855, and you'll have to wait 143 years for the Magic to be built!

 

[GOS]

you're a regular Paul Anka.
(or are you too young to know who he is?)

He's still going strong Mike.

Here are a couple of pictures with the "Flux Capacitor"

Just a little background - this was my old job at a company called EverDrive (they sell recycled auto parts). At the time, I was the Controller of the company and my boss was the CFO. I started preparing him some Fluctuation Analyses (which I called "Flux") and he couldn't ever remember so he always called them the Flux Capacitors!

He LOVED it!!!

Yep - isn't he the dog on the Gilmore Girls??? (seriously - they named the dog Paul Anka!!)



Yes - I know who he is! (Had to google him to make sure, though!)

Matthew - our luggage is from Costco too! We love it! (Hope we don't get it mixed up).

I am glad to hear your dad is improving. We will keep him in our prayers.

Yay on the new camera! We picked up one for Becca at Target on clearance. Hopefully she won't lose it (it was $20 and the Hannah Montana Video camera that can also take pictures...)

Hate spending money on luggage when you know it's gonna be ruined by the baggage handlers.
