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

1) Would dark be more expensive and how would the transfer look on them?

For polos, it would need to be embroidered, and thread is thread, so I don't think it would be a big difference visually. For T's that are being screenprinted, it would be a different color screen (and a separate screen charge) for a dark shirt as opposed to a light one. (We are going through this right now with shirts I am ordering for an event... but this is thousands of shirts, where the screen charge gets eaten up pretty readily.)

2) Would everyone be happy being in a dark shirt in late May in Florida?

Personally, no, but, I'll go with whatever everyone else decides.

3) For ohiomickey only - what deodorant are you planning on using for this cruise?

He'd actually have to come out of hiding to answer that question... Oh, Karen... time to wake him up.
(And I can just imagine the story that goes with this one... )

Hey... a longwinded top shared with OM, OM, and Mary! Now its time to get to WORK!!!!
If only I could remember what I changed my password to to get on the 'mother-ships' server... so in the meantime, I wait... and kill time.

Old Spice "Algae Green"

T-shirts....hadn't thought about the regular T's in white looking like underwear, but thanks for the visual, Kevin and Sue! You are right about that.
Not too sure if black would be a might hot in May?? Darker blue works for me. I guess a baby blue would be nauseating with all those other colors?
OR.......what about PINK??? Just kidding, I swear!

Way to go Longhorns!!!

I think for the first time in 35 years - everyone in Texas -including the Texas A&M fans - united in rooting for UT! What an exciting game - I had to remember the rest of the house was asleep at 11:15 last night - it was hard to keep quiet. What an awesome game on both sides. Certainly lived up to all the hype.

When Texas was getting close to the goal line at the end, I kept saying how cool that was, it was making the game really exciting. The girls were going crazy. I had to keep telling them to "shush" because Jay had gone to bed. Their answer? "Well, he shouldn't have gone to bed, then!"
They blamed me for USC's loss, since I wanted a "more exciting" game. LOL I only wish I had that much control of an outcome...I could be a billionaire betting!

Irene, I was thinking that I would book the Seahorse Snorkel for BOTH stops at CC, but only go once. It depends. My reasoning is a little skewed. I thought we would do the SH Snorkel on the first stop, and hold the ressie on the 2nd stop for 2 reasons: If for some reason we don't stop at CC the 1st time, I'd still have the excursion booked for the 2nd stop. If we go the first time and really like it, then we may want to do it again on the 2nd stop. If we don't like it the first time, then we'll cancel the 2nd one. Make sense, or am I goofy??

We really enjoyed "doing nothing" on Castaway Cay last December. The family beach was closed since the predator nets were down, and it was a little chilly, so Jay & I walked the whole area, out to the adult beach, hitting a few bars along the way. We were chased off the island at closing when we were at the Head's Up Bar with Cindy & Boyd. So we were pretty much the last ones at CC that day.
But from experience, it will be too hot at the end of May to just walk around all day...and far too crowded. We will definitely need to get into the water.
I was also planning on trying to get the last Banana Boat ride of the day at one of the stops. We all love it, and usually on the last one, they stay out longer.

Mary, is "Ash" a grey color? That would be good. Or what about "wheat"?

Hey, wait a minute....are you making fun of me?

 

[ohiominnie]

No!! Not at all. I noticed it a few years ago looking at the Lands' End catalog...

Cream
Toffee
Oatmeal
Plum
Berry
Latte
Mocha
Coffee
Lemonade
Chocolate
etc etc....

 

[mickeymo]

Don't forget Bubblegum and Mint...

CRUISE RELATED!!!Attention LATE SEATING!!!


Yes, it's that time! Anyone who is going to be on the LATE seating and wants to be LINKED with a group of us.....

PLEASE PM your RESERVATION number to either myself or Diana.

If you have a preference of WHO you might want to sit with, or who you DON'T want to sit with, let us know. Also, if you think your kids might want to sit with any other kids in particular, let us know that too.

We will do our best to make everyone happy, but we need to remember that we are working with someone on DCL, and we don't always get what we want.
Last time, we eventually moved the teens and pre-teens to one of our tables so that they could sit together and not drive us nuts. Small kids have to stay with their parents.

I think we can get a table for 6, a table for 8 and a table for 10....with tables next to those (but with different servers) of 6's or 8's.

 

[ohiominnie]

Small kids have to stay with their parents.

Party pooper. Nevermind, I won't link then if you're going to make me sit by my kids!! HA HA

Now that Grandma Lightbulb isn't dining with us, we'll need to reevaluate switching back to late dining. I know KT wants to sit with Lauren and Lisa, but I'm not too sure if Mike and I want to sit with Mr. Scuba!!! Can we work it that way???

Your kids don't qualify as small...well, they are small, but I guess I meant YOUNG. LOL
Okay....you were supposed to tell me to NOT seat you with Mr. Scuba IN PRIVATE.....but, since it's too late for decorum......

That was cute. Reminds me of the bit the comedian did on NCL. He was asking why it is that women have to feel everything in the store. He held out one hand and rubbed his thumb on his fingertips....I was dying laughing. I had just left the store where they had t-shirts out "Sale....2 for $20" but I had felt them...and they were really thin, and cheap.

Sure sure - first you tell us you aren't doing SSMC06 and now you are switching from early to late dining. You went from stalking us to not wanting to see us. What did we do Karen?



Yeah - a top with OM and tears.

You're welcome....for the set-up......

There....see Karen, now are you happy?????? You made Mary cry! Shame, shame, shame. First you publicly insult Jim (oh wait, that's nothing new) and then you make Mary cry. Wow.....you're two for two today!

 

[WDWLVR]

Don't worry - I understand. It's all for the children!

Don't drag Mike into this. He is a really nice guy and I would not mind eating with him.

For folks that aren't into t-shirts, you could get a pair of these. Alicia already has hers:

OR NOT!!
