[STEVEMED]

My pirate name is RED SAM KID.It says "passion is a big part of my life".I always told my wife I was a good catch.I'm macho yet sensitive.

 

[Snoopyto]

So My name is

My pirate name is:

Dirty Davy Kidd
You're the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean -- not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

Well at last I can keep my given name. As long as I am not in Davy Jones locker. But if it is my locker, why should I be in it, I can put people in it.

Anyhow suffering from a case DTH- Daylight Time Hangover.

 

[mketting]

for anyone who read my second post ranting about my supervisor I apologise if the language "referenced" was offensive I was really in a mood. I have removed the post.

 

[castlegazer]

damn, I missed it!

Knew that would draw you out Mom2cobysyd!!!

 

[ohsodisney]

LOL , my pirate name is Mad Mary Cash , what the ? This is what it said :

Your pirate name is:
Mad Mary Cash. Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. You're musical, and you've got a certain style if not flair. You'll do just fine. Arr!

They at least got the crazy part right !

 

[ohsodisney]

Here is Barrys , watch out Tom !!!
Your pirate name is:
Captain Harry Read
Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. Even through many pirates have a reputation for not being the brightest souls on earth, you defy the sterotypes. You've got taste and education. Arr!

 

[ulittletinker]

Your fine, Its nice to vent, I too have a boss, who is difficult to work with. She "DRAMA QUEEN" and it all about her. try and have a great day

[mom2cobysyd]

"Awful Arthurs" that my DH still raves about. Are you familiar with it?

I am familiar with it (see the signs and ads all the time) but we have never eaten there.

A pre-cruise meet would be fun at Easton. We could shop or eat- lots of great restaurants there. Where are you at in Ohio- I can't remember?

 

[Belle and Rella's Dad]

Just wanted to say hi to everyone, Len welcome aboard, and Shann, boy do we have to talk, I am not sure who is luckier, you or the Queen. Just had 5 days of laying in the sun sipping drinks, have 4 days left of this, tough gig but we are up for it.

I will try to post later, Pango keep up the good work, and LLL how is D boy?

Tom

 

[ohsodisney]

OMG , well I'm heading to bed but all I can think of is at our meet we will be known as Captain Barry and his crazy lunatic wife

 

[Pango]

My pirate name is:
Captain Davy Rackham

Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in CHARGE. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

Come lads and join in... I think our President is haveing to much fun down in the land of sand and rum.

What is that I smell Lads... A MUTINY

 

[suziemva]

Okay, here goes:

My pirate name is:
Dirty Anne Kidd

Hey! Sounds like I have a lot of friends in low places on this cruise! My, aren't we all the same!!

Had a great day today! Started out going to Canada on a day trip to see the Storyeum, an underground live action tour about Canada. So, while waiting at the border to get in, took some pics that I will have to download tomorrow and post. Had a fun time at the museum and Tori was excited to see the Dinosaur exhibit from China there. Really cool but the life-size mockup of Sparky the dinosaur spooked her a bit. Was really real looking!

Ate dinner and headed back. Unfortunately, I had a hard time reading the map and Trish had a hard time navigating....took us a bit of time to get out of dear old Canada! Pretty funny at the time! Kept thinking we'd end up in the water or Alaska!! I'm not at my best trying to help in the dark and when it rains, poor Trish having to put up with me! I wasn't even paying attention half the time and I kept thinking she knew where she was going! Silly me! Bummer was they never stamped our passports entering or leaving ....

After many hours last night searching the internet, this is what we have come up with:

So, let's all take a minute and vote to see if we are right about one of these. I'm hoping Sue will be kind enough to tell us if we are right.

Okay, hopefully off to bed soon. I'm really tired today and hope to sleep in a bit tomorrow. Gonna try to make some really yummy banana bread tomorrow...no offense, Steve! Do a little baking, a little scrapbooking, a little laundry, and who knows what else!

BTW - that was a recipe from Emeril Legasse! Sounds pretty yummy, actually! May have to try a rendition tomorrow!

 

[Pango]

I Have a minute to catch you all up on the countdown....

JT sorry about the late post yesterday....

 

[Belle and Rella's Dad]

Pango my boy, you cannot pop in with your 20 something posts and just expect to be Prez, I have work very hard to become the self appointed President of the SteveMed fan Club. Just because I am on a little precruise jaunt, does not mean that I am shirking my responsiblities. In fact at the Ron Jon the other day I had my Tweener (btw that is what we call Sarah, Pango gave her the nickname because she is the middle child) running through the store holding a Speedo yelling "Mom, Dad says he is going to buy this". Lindsey, our oldest was mortified, in fact when I bought a sharks tooth necklace, that I am wearing on this Vaca and the Cruise, she said "Dad that is so not you", I told her that it is about attitude, Pango you know that it is about getting in the right state of mind, you are the king of that. The Presidentcy is not something that I am willing to relent, so if you want it big boy you will have to earn it.

If any of you want a little Disney magic, but want to enjoy the beach, have to tell you that Vero is the place. They had a great sing a long campfire last night, and instead of singing BINGO, they sang PLUTO was his name o, kids did the un birthday party last night, just having a great time, in fact I think it will become a SpringBreak tradition.

Will check in later, gotta run the kids are starting to wake up, almost 9 gotta love Vacation and Summer.

Tom

Hi gang!

CG- OMG I FINALLY watched HP GOF last night and WOW is all I can say. I thought it was a little weak early in the movie and went too fast(the book was WAY more descriptive) but then near the end, right after HGP went up to sleep I was paralyzed with fear....I was pretty sure Voldemort was following me upstairs last night. The thunder and lightning didn't help either.... It was neat to see how they did the scenes for the tri wizard tournament and the Yule Ball! Really cool effects. Alright- enough out of geeky me! PS- Was Ralph Feinnes Voldemort?

My priate name is

Iron Jenny Roberts: A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you're a tough person. Two things complete your pirate persona: style and swagger. Maybe a little too much swagger sometimes-but who really cares? Arr!

LOVE IT! Pat's was the same as Pango's so I guess I will have to do his again!

We are leaving in 3 days. Thankfully, I think I will have all my orders done(yes Suzie, including yours) before I leave! YAY

Welcome to all the newbies on the boards. I have been kind of absent lately- busy couple of weeks. Patty emailed and we are trying to figure out what time to have Happy Limo pick us up at the hotel(near the airport). I said 9:00 since we have a grocery stop included. Getting excited, but the weight loss has stopped....I don't care. A few lbs really makes all the difference!

Your West Coast mini-meet looked like fun! Ruby's mom-where is Bellingham? We are all headed to the Seattle area this summer(late Aug) for a niece's wedding. My BIL lives in Kirkland, apparently near Bill Gates. Somehow I can't imagine that happening but whatever....

For those of you who are concerned about Katie's hair(CG I know you were curious what she looked like) she is going to survive. She actually looks kind of trendy since short chuny layered bangs are kind of in right now......BUt it still pains me since we were growing them out for 2 months......

Hope everyone's day is going well so far. Yet another windy garbage day in PA! I need to get packing- Friday at 3 is liftoff! I am secretly happy for this crummy weather bout we got yesterday....It will make FL seem that much better!!


PJ

 

[castlegazer]

yeah until Florida weather craps out on you too - like what happened to me. Here's hoping for sunny skies for you down there.

It's really awesome to "hear" from you ChardonnayJen - I missed YA!!!!

This is my vote! But I'm thinking this may be more like it: #3 A fertility specialist



FOR PRESIDENT!!!!

But that was a damn good speach by the incumbent.

 

[castlegazer]

Forgot to say, yes, Ralph Feinnes was Voldemort - cool, hunh!? I listen to it in the car when driving - kinda like books on tape - and I don't even like listening to that part he is so over the top creepy as Voldemor. I loved the movie as a standalone piece - you have to suspend your knowledge of the book to see the movie. I liked the book story much better, but the movie is totally visually stunning and fun to watch!

 

[castlegazer]

hey guys, good news, my friend geffric just got back and she is going to scan in the new Navigators and send them to lbgraves - only problem is that they are Western ones. But it will be good to see some new ones as the Kids club stuff is now on the same as the adult ones - it's altogether if that didn't make sense.

 

[OHJulie]

Tom and Julie - Glad you are having a great time on your vacation! Did you buy the Speedo? In fact, I think you should buy several so all of you boys can match! Wouldn't that be cute??? And it wouldn't raise any eyebrows at all!

Mom2 - I live in Akron. When are your kids on spring break? My kids are out the week after Easter. Anyone else going to be in Ohio soon?

Well, I just took Jessica to school at 10:00. She came home from school with a stomach ache yesterday and then it came back this morning just before it was time to leave, so I waited for awhile to determine if this was real or memorex. I believe what we have here is an urgent desire for a few days off - don't we all need that about now?! (except for T & J)

Anyone else having a hard time focusing on work??? I am ready to just leave now and hang out at the Ron Jon for 25 days!!

OHJulie

 

[castlegazer]

I've never seen this picture before - it's the little boys room in the club:

That is totally cute!


Catrina is going to be all about this kitchen set up:
