A PDA discussion is one thing I am saving for the cruise. I'm looking for a new one and figure getting you, Mark, and several others in the room (no Mac vs. PC talk) would steer me into the right direction.

I'll have my Palm Tungsten C with me..... aww... you mean I can't bash PCs....

The shirts will make it easy for DM to find everyone, she may not be able to find me, hmmmmmm.........

 

[scuba diver]

The world won't come to an end if we don't get the shirts until the cruise, but it would be nice to wear them into the terminal and turn heads. BTW - Bears getting a shirt too.

Well, it is for Bear than we will do everything possible to get him his shirt.

Just for the curious, my PM to GaRy was to simply meet me at my office in Daytona Beach to save him time. No reason to come to our house in Port Orange and than to Daytona Beach when I am there already.

Bear needs his shirt for Saturday. Don't want him to be a bare Bear (like you have never heard that one before).

Would be more than happy to discuss. I would say one thing mac vs pc that I know nothing about, which has better ability to interface with a Mac, Palm or PocketPC os?

Virgil - is that the one on the commercials with Snoop doing laundry and stuff or am I mixing up my techie toys?

See I knew if I mentioned bear you would melt like butter you old softie!


Me and Scuba Jim sharing a top thanks to Bear!

Has anybody watched the video of Illuminations that Webmaster Corey posted with the new pictures? It's pretty good.... Sitting here at work watching it..... (for a change we're not that busy....)

and yes - I'm working diligently to change the subject!

uhh.. Isnt the video at the top Wishes?

Which I do have to say after experiencing it in person, they finally have a show at the MK that rivals Illuminations.

This brings back a memory. I was sitting in for my boss and went to an IS/IT meeting for him. I guess English was the spoken language, I didn't understand any of what they said. Maybe that is why I go the early out offer

OK you knew what I meant...... I do wonder whether it was a normal one or an extended one like they'll have Friday night for MVMCP......

Glad you're keeping me straight Mark!

THANKS VIRGIL!!!!!

Speaking of Illuminations, you are right, the pictures are pretty good.

Glad you are not too busy, I'm still at work, but headed home shortly to try to get more stuff ready for the cruise!

Can't believe only 3 more sleep nights here in Utah! Need to get on the cruise though so I can actually get rocked to sleep!

Linda

When I got into bed last night, I was thinking about being rocked to sleep! That's funny!

Don't feel that bad; it's an entirely different language, not quite english.

Have you seen the extended one for MVMCP - it is awesome! Watched it from both inside the park and from a tower room at the Contemporary last year.

BTW the 17th is sold out!

I havnt' watched it yet, but.. did the ending have fireworks everywhere? It was probably the MVMCP one if it did.

 

[Dancind]

That might work, especially if it is later in the week. We can work out those details on the ship. Planning the next trip before this one is over, great idea!

You don't think Kevin will let Alicia dive with Manatees without him, do you? I told them tonight that if it was to dive with the Manatees, they could go on the 29th or 30th. But they have to be back for dinner!

Garry & Vicki, didn't know you guys were sticking around after the cruise. Where are you staying?

 

[magiroux]

ok, a little overwhelmed here. Did you you ever think you were in GREAT shape to meet a deadline then BAMM!!!...you just get this total feeling of doom that you will NEVER get done in time. Well, that's where I'm at now.

So, what the heck am I doing on these boards then instead of packing...just wanted to say to all that are heading down to WDW early, safe trip and look forward to meeting you on Saturday.

I spoke with Shirley today to order baskets for the kids (big kid, DH and little kid, DD) and she says it is very cold. She says there is gonna be something extra from her in my cabin to bring to the DIS Meet for you all. She is just such a sweetie!!!!

I am sorry people are getting thier excursions cancelled. That is such a bummer but remember you will be in the happiest place in the world and everything will work out

Both work quite well actually... there's 3rd party software for the PocketPC that reportedly works better synching with a Mac than with a PC.... I've just always had a Palm - and the investment there justifies not switching.... Some of the new iPaqs... with Bluetooth and WiFi... are pretty cool, though....

I might take you up on that, Stacey. Sounds like fun! I will call and see if it's still open. Someone took pity on poor lonely me!

I know we won't come close to having as big a group as the "original" Pirate cruise....but we can still have some major fun!! I'm told they make a wicked rum punch. The last pirate ship I was on, I think they spiked my punch...I climbed out on the mast head and did an imitation of "Titanic"!! And Jay almost fell over board! Maybe you'll think twice about going....LOL

Reminds me of back in the day when I was a copywriter at Sears (for the catalog) We used a software called BestInfo (not sure if it is even around anymore). Anyway between the Sears talk and the BestInfo talk we could confuse people. I was a Sr. Writer and the other Sr. Writer and I were having a discussion one day in front of one of the newer people. After 15 minutes she looked at us and said "what language are you speaking".

 

[Dancind]

I think you have to have a suitable wine cellar and inventory before that becomes a necessity. If Jim is like us, the wine doesn't have a chance to hang around that long......

You know, at one time I had a nice collection of wine. That was before I met you....


Maybe it has something to do with having someone worth drinking it with.

Did I just say that?

 

[MarkRG]

I want and watched the clip, that is the entirety of the stock version of Wishes. The MVMCP version is even better, believe it or not.
