The warehouse address is:
Disney Cruise Lines
9001 Marlin Street
Cape Canaveral, FL 32920

address the package to them and, in the bottom left corner of the package put the following information:ATTN: HOUSEKEEPING
STATEROOM # XXXX (GTY, if you don't know what it is when you send the package)
PASSENGER NAME: (name of passenger on reservation)
VESSEL: WONDER or MAGIC
DATE of SAIL:
NUMBER of BOXES: 1 of 1, 3 of 4 or whatever.

OK - Is PJ's post correct, Lisa's, or both? HELP!

We have ONE BIG BOX already, and I told Amy ship it to the port - NOT the hotel, or we WILL need a truck like the Beverly Hillbillies.

Okay Ipod Geeks, I need a recommendation.

I have a Nano, but eventually i will probably get a video ipod.

I need a ripper -- something to get the music from my nano back onto my new laptop (originally the music loaded onto my old laptop).

Eventually I'll probably want to rip video to the video ipod.

What's the best thing to download/buy so I can take care of current and future needs?

Thanks!

For song ripping I use Ipod ripper (came in handy when I restored by HD) , and for converting my DVDs for my ipod I use Handbrake (this only works on actual DVDs.)

you maybe looking for ABC liquors...but now Publix has a liquor store attached.

Here the costs are the same; DSL might be a little less (hard to say with all of the specials both keep running). I think you have to get a local answer. (Which provider works better... and what is better in your neighborhood) We have one of the best DSL connections in our neighborhood because of where our house is located. And too many cable customers in one area can be a problem.

Just another FYI . . .

DSL keeps having deals for NEW subscribers . . .

I call and tell them that if I don't get that deal when I renew, Cable will have a new subscrber. Works every time.

You know i'm right....

Is that a throw back to Aaron's D&D days?

 

[brack]

I have been listening to Christmas music on my XM radio all day and looking at these pictures. How sad is that?

 

[elaineteresa]

Rachael Ray is on....making Pot Pie, no crust. I really like her...

Jaea - loves loves Rachael Ray. I looked at some kids classes at the Culinary Inst. for her but you have to be aged 8.

EVOO to you.

Ok I'll stop torturing us with the pictures.

 

[Jhalkias]

Ok,, but we still need a verdict on the clawed furry monkey-bird shoulder beast...WHAT IS IT? Is it a Missouri thing? Where are my Wildlife of Missouri books?

Well,

The mystery remains, but I still have 26 pages to go . . .

(looks like a dead stuffed monkey-bird from the Wizard of OZ)

You say Mac/DSL and I say PC/Cable and yet we still agree that DCL and DISing is a great to spend the day!

 

[goofyforlife]

ok can't wait up for becka....

But i know i'm right.....It's a griffon...Mythical beast with the head of an eagle (ok in this case sorta) if we could see the back of said beast it would have the body of a lion.

 

[brack]

Time for bed. I have a staff meeting at 8AM tomorrow. I'll be back tomorrow sometime and for chat tomorrow night. Good night.

Lisa - you put your pics etc. in there too waiting to be scrapped? I never thought of that - great idea.

thanks.

OK here goes.....

I use the top loading pages so when I sit down to start a book I plan it all out. The first book was 20 inserts each in 2 books. I wrote out the themes that I wanted to do & wrote those on post its on those inserts. I order the pictures. When they come in I slide those in the insert they belong to. I can then go thru and select the paper that I want to use for that page (if I haven't already) and put it in the insert as well. I pick the matching paper for backing the pictures and any embellishments that will go on the page then too. I then crop the pictures and mount them on the backing paper, then cut that down. I then have all that I need to put the pages together in each insert. I can jump around the book that way & do what interests me at the time. HTH.

Born May 12, 1984 according to one source I found; not sure if it's reliable

Guess I was too tired to check the math.

 

[Jhalkias]

Don't keep us in suspense Becka...just what is that thing?

Maybe I am getting closer to the answer . . .

What would you do with an 8 year old who loves her piano lessons, but cries when she practices if she has a little trouble?!?!

Jaea does the same thing - every time she practices with daddy she comes out crying and stomping her feet. The teacher says she has a very good ear but she just doesn't like to stick with things she doesn't do well at instantly. I don't like to let her off the hook that easily.

Maybe have her practice for shorter increments of time? see if mornings on the weekend make a difference when she isnt' tired?
