5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 2

[WDWLVR]

now, now KIDS please stop fighting.

Woo Hoo - the old lady gets the top!

 

[ohiominnie]

Of course she has a British accent - she's from London!

Yeah, she never offers the "Ohio" part after telling ppl she's from London.

She has fooled many a Brits with her accent. She only gets stumped when they ask her "where abouts in London are you from?"

One lady then asked me where I was from (guess my LACK of any accent gave it away) so I said "Ohio" and she could NOT believe that KT would fly across the Atlantic Ocean (although she called it "the pond") all by HERSELF and proceeded to tell KT how brave she was for doing that and that her kids would NEVER fly across the pond by themselves!!

Also like the restaurant on the top of the Contemporary - Can't remember the name

No wonder. At YOUR age, that Alzheimers will creep up on you! HA.

Isn't it the California Grill?

(ducking)

She started it!

I meant "lady" as in sophisticated and intelligent, not "old."

 

[ohiominnie]

WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!

I just sold about $100 worth of my homeschool curriculum!!!

AND, to top it off, the lady lives in Columbus, has relatives in London, and is willing to drive here to pick it up!!! That means I don't have to worry about finding boxes for all of it and shipping it!!

 

[ohiominnie]

Ok, ok, I really must go, although I am enjoying the wit and camaraderie here.

I have destroyed this house trying to organize it and must get it part way back together before picking up the children today.

 

[WDWLVR]

Very cool Karen - congrats.

Great suggestions for dinners. So far, I have a PS at Hollywood Brown Derby for lunch one day, Sci-Fi for dinner (kids favorite), Chef Mickeys (kid's runner-up), Boma (dinner - never been), Rose & Crown (fav. illuminations spot) and am still trying to decide on the rest. Wish Tepanaki was using the DDE Card. We also love La Cellier and have been a couple of times to Whispering Canyon. Thinking real hard about LTT, we have only eaten there for lunch one time.

We also may try some off-site restaurants this time because we are staying off-site more then we are on. That will be a first for us Got a great rate at the Cypress Pointe Villas outside of DT Disney (5 nights / $400 for a 2 br). We are going to start the trip off with 2 days at Universal (Hard Rock).

Well, off to church for now, will check back in later.

Monica,


The joke goes, How many aggies does it take......
We have a major war going on at work. My boss is a UT grad and one of the other guys is a Texas Tech grad, but his son goes to A&M. They are always ribbing each other. Tooo funny the practical jokes they play on each other

 

[ohiominnie]

Wish Tepanaki was using the DDE Card.

If you do Teppenyaki (or however you spell it) for lunch, the prices are approx 20% off and you still get more than enough food. Dinner portions are obscenely way too much food!

 

[ohiominnie]

yeah, but if you knew Julia in college...

AWWWWW....I'm tellin' her you said that!!!!

 

[mickeymo]

The website is ready to launch - I'm just testing my signature to see if the renamed link appears...

 

[mickeymo]

nope,

Here's the link meanwhile, I'll still work on my signature. Much better than doing laundry and cleaning...

[WDWLVR]

Monica - the site looks great! I'll definately add a link from our site over to Scoopie's. Thank you so much for taking on this task!


Woo Hoo - got a top with Monica and Scoopie!

 

[mickeymo]

Mary how did you rename your links in your signature?

 

[WDWLVR]

Mary how did you rename your links in your signature?

Monica - highlight the "Where's Scoopie" then click on the insert link option above (it looks like a globe with a chainlink). Then a pop-up box will come up and you type the link in there.

 

[MickeyMo'sBo]

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to take a minute to say Hi. Monica has been so addicted to there boards that I thought I would ifnally pop on and see what was up!!!

Looking forward to meeting everyone in a year!!!

 

[mickeymo]

Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank You!!!

I knew it had to be something simple - trust an engineer to make it more complicated than what it really was!!! (And if he's decided to log on and lurk, I only meant it in the nicest way, John!!!)
