12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 15

[87Heel]

Can you imagine a DIS Geek cruise special.... then poor Lisa would somehow get trapped into cabin assignments as well as dining assignments??!

 

[MrsMork]

Thanks for not being mad - but it was bound to happen and I apologize for participating - but Todd and I took it up on the Med August repo (see - it's Todd's fault ) - but it is kind of lonely over there - and out of context, it isn't the same. ((And I hate to be an outsider even if I did jump ship before it sailed, but still feel part because I was on this thread for over a year, have a lovely lime green t-shirt, and still think that potpie does not have a crust.)

EVeryone just wants to be this thread - consider it a compliment.

You certainly ARE part of this group even though you did not get to sail. I am confident that we will sail together one day.

Not to mention shore excursions, t-shirt design and Christmas stockings (halloween pumpkins, may baskets - whatever fits the season)

I just can't imagine that we would have had as much fun as a group without her orgainization. WE LOVE YOU, LISA!! I'm thinking we need a website for the May PC group, but who can do that??? We don't have Lisa.

Poor Lisa.....

However a DIS Geek special cruise would be the best cruise EVER!

I thought about volunteering, but then thought again....

Well, where should this DIS Geek special cruise go?

Another double dip? Just CC and sea days?

 

[pjpoohbear]

Darn work, school, etc! We want to cruise when we want and all go together!

A triple dip! Count us in.......at least once Allie is a bit older.

 

[becka]

So how much does it cost to charter the ship?

 

[goofyforlife]

Uuuuughhhhhh.... Who knew that course selection for high school was soooo annoying these days???? We're working through a thick packet of info with Elizabeth... it's like you have to figure out all 4 years at once so that you don't miss any prerequisites along the way.

Tell me about it...I'm mad that the school isn't doing anything for parents other than ..here's the book pick a class and hope it's the right one....

We would SO be on that one!

 

[DrHug]

Do you need a DDD Geek Swat team to come over and assault the villians Lisa? You KNOW we will come out of the woodwork to defend our own!

(remember the formal night controversy, and the sad attorney?)

I am there with you John. After all, Lisa is our Empress, and I am but a humble DIS warrior. Lisa, we you.

I don't know, but......Lisa, can you get your clipboard and contact your people and check into this??

NO!!!!!! I can't keep up!!! I have just done the manifest & email group listing so far...with emails coming in all the time...and there are 192 people so far JUST counting immediate family. There have probably been another 20-30 family/friends that I am not including in the site. YIKES!!!!

Tell me about it...I'm mad that the school isn't doing anything for parents other than ..here's the book pick a class and hope it's the right one....

We went through the public high school forms a few weeks ago and had to make all of the selections; every teacher recommended her for honors level, which is nice... but should a kid take honors in everything? And if you're involved in music, then you have no elective spaces available. But I didn't get really concerned with the process there, since she's switching to the Catholic high school. Now we have that packet... and things don't always translate. You're limited to 2 honors classes your freshman year... decide which subjects (so decide what's important now). Placement tests for math and foreign language. But the public school doesn't call the advanced math in 8th grade "Algebra I." They call it "Integrated Math" (combines geometry and algebra I). So there's nothing in her record to show that she could try to test out of Algebra I, because "integrated math" means nothing. Luckily they do have a long session for registration and information in a few weeks, with department reps there, so we can get everything clarified.
