Would love to join people on 4/30 who love talking "Disney" as much as I do. Keep me posted when you know a time. Thanks. Karen (knolan@palmerdodge.com)

Work on it, Ann. Maybe we can get the piano players to entertain us with it at Jerry.

OK...so last night I'm sitting around and I start humming "Charlie on the MTA"....but it was
"well let me tell you of the story of a meet named Jerry........."

but then I sort of lost my train of thought... and I'm not sure it's the right concept ...the whole "never return thing"....and a lot of people might not "get it" anyway

so....I'll keep thinking.....we'll have SOMETHING to sing at the piano bar

 

[TLinden16]

LOL, Ann. It could work because you know, Jerry never did return from that meet.

[TLinden16]

No he never returned no he never returned
His fate is still unlearned
He dove for ever on the streets of Boston (or so some people claim)
He's the man who never returned

 

[CamColt]

OH Karen thats good.
And FWIW, I was just showing this to DH and he doesnt recall any diving. But, hes pretty oblivious anyway.

 

[TLinden16]

I knew I liked your hubby

[whois figment]

Ok I'll bite is Jerry just part of your imagination like figment? I had to ask. It will be a last minute decision based on my sons hockey playoffs but I would love to make it if I don't have a scheduling conflict.

 

[NHAnn]

Nice try Karen, trying to pin the dive on poor ol' Jerry!! sheesh, the nerve!!
It was a SHE who dove...not a he

whois figment: Jerry is the name of the meet...last June...it's kind of hard to explain...but if you can come in April, we'll fill you in

 

[goofy4tink]

Shame on you Karen...trying to pin bad doings on poor ole Jerry!!! We all know who 'dove' and nothing you can say will change the facts. Can't wait to see everyone again. Do you all think it will be warm by then??!!!

 

[mickeyfan1]

OK I was in Boston earlier today, near the aquarium and then at Downtown Crossing, I looked all over for Jerry but he was as elusive as ever.

 

[goofy4tink]

If you listen to our illustrious leader from last year, she would have you believe that Jerry probably 'dove' for cover!!! Probably won't see him again until April. Either that or he went home with the pirate guy over by the Aquarium!!!

 

[zippeedee]

Maybe he fell in with that group of Russian gymnasts that Karen was telling everyone about. Maybe he's home in Minsk?

 

[winniedapooh]

Just checked in with my DISer in crime and we will be there! Karen I sent you a PM for some info. OK anybody got a mugshot on Jerry so we can begin looking. Can't wait to meet some other DISers!

 

[TLinden16]

I forgot about the Russian gymnists. LOL.

Michelle, I sent you a PM.

Yo Karen, Are most of the gals here named Debbie? Would that mean we are all over 40? Still planning on meeting you. DH is getting cold feet, worried we are all just too weird.

 

[TLinden16]

Debbie, tell your DH that we're weird in a good way. Either that, or let him stay home. You'll have more fun without him

Oh dear...this is just how my dh felt last spring. But, he actually said he had a really good time with us. He never knew that there were so many people out there just like his wacky wife!!!! He hasn't complained once about going in April!! So, tell your dh that there will be other 'normal' men there that he can hang with if it gets too weird for him!!! See you there.

Hi Karen....

 

[NHAnn]

My DH would not let me go "alone" to meet other DISers at the first Swan/Dolphin "cheerleader" DIS Meet at the Dolphin in the summer of 2000! He figured if he came with me he could protect me from internet weirdos and have an excuse for a getaway trip with me. We both had a wonderful time.

Lots of the spouses seem relieved that there are other "normal" people at these meets. well, they think they're the normal ones

He was a little skeptical last June that we were going to a meet that had a name and that I was going to Caper on the Common with Karen....but he figured he wouldn't run into anyone he knew in Boston He enjoyed the day
