8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC #3

[cruisin'Mike]

Ahoy there, Mike!

May I offer a share of the booty if you'll handle my dealings here? In my accord I'd like to keep me good name and steer clear of any direct involvement. So shall we say you can take one share of the take for handling all affairs in this matter? That'll be net of any paypal fees or expenses Andrew attaches for handling any financing. And, of course, Andrew's proceeds are net of OUR fees fer referrin' clients his way.

Do we have an accord, mate?

Aye, Mate!

TAKE WHAT YA CAN!

I'd send him to school tomorrow with swim goggles.

MARCO!

wish I had thought of that. If you can't be prepared, at least be funny.

When is it going to be spring? We were supposed to have nothing but rain today and guess what we got? SNOW! Over 5 inches of the stupid carp here at home, 8 inches at work. I made my poor DH come to the office and bring me home and had to listen to him lecture me about how my next vehicle WILL BE a 4 wheel drive something - I wanted the all-wheel drive version of my car, not my fault he fell for the pitch about stabilization and rear wheel drive.

I don't really like my all wheel drive in the snow. My last SUV was a pathfinder. It was much better.

 

[GoofyontheHiSeas]

Aye, Mate!

TAKE WHAT YA CAN!

GIVE NOTHING BACK

Wait until they hit middle school! When DS receives a project for English his teacher does not allow them to bring it home to work on. She gives them limited class time to complete it and hand it in. She has extended project deadlines at least 3 times that I know of because more than half the class isn't done.

my DS10 would never get a project done if he could only do it in the classroom.

 

[radioclash2]

Hey M,

Thanks for the recipe!

those are so cute.

 

[captaincrash]

I'm not sure ...

( Nick, Tom & Brendan )

And for BRENDAN:

2 thoughts, one - on the website there are links to a couple of companies that do this kind of insurance.

Two- I usually find USAA's rates hard to beat on anything

I didn't even think about USAA for trip insurance. D'oh.

 

[captaincrash]

Aye, Mate!

TAKE WHAT YA CAN!​

G.N.B.!

OK... I gotta go now friends.... this evenings' gymnastics has been cancelled on account of the macys' extra 60% off sale (not) and we're going to meet up with my shop-a-holic wench (true) to go Macy's Hoppin' this evenin' ... so maybe I'll meet up in chat tonite - maybe....

TTFN​

 

[radioclash2]

I

Although even worse would be to have to fly on USAir! We'll do just about anything to avoid flying them into Philly.

I'd rather be sling shot from MCO to Philly, than fly USAir into Philly.

Lisa,

Be careful what ya ask fer... cuz we can ARRANGE for the human sling shot option... especially since our "FARE" will be only $1 less then the prevailing US AIR fare!

Just wanted to stop in and say hi - I got on the cruise right before the holidays - one of those flukes when it said they had availablity. Looking forward to it. I am traveling solo - so looking forward to meeting some of you. I already have my flight to LAX on 8/15, hotel at Disneyland, my park tickets for Saturday, and flight back to SFO on 9/1! YIPPIE!

Howdy neighbor.

May I ask who you are flying on Sep 1? Haven't booked our flights yet. Will fly into SFO, OAK, or SJC depending on who has the best price.

Other than making excursion reservations...I have only two things left on my TO DO list.
I need to call the Hyatt at MCO and make reservations for a day room and I need to stop at our local Enterprise to reserve the Mom-Mobile.



Along with Thelma and Louise, we need to come up with three more names for our motley group.

mother, jugs & speed? Any big ****s in the group?

 

[radioclash2]

wait, you can't say **** ?

 

[mkygrl]

Chrissie, are you registered on the "do not call list"?

I am!

So here is an update.....

The number just came up again..so I answered....
Very nicely I said "I do not wish to participate and answer your questions,I am on the do not call list and want you to remove my name from you call list...I do not expect to have any more calls from your company. Thank you have a good night"

Not a minute later my phone rang again...it was them!
I picked up and said hello....no reply..but i heard background noise...
I said "I just told you I was NOT interested and NOT to call again and you call right back! I hope this is being recorded..I find your practices of persistent calling and harrassment intolerable!Do NOT call me again!".....I hear CLICK!

ARRRGGGH!

Chrissie

Interesting reading that was forwarded to me:


Easter is early this year. Easter is always the 1st Sunday after the 1st full moon after the Spring Equinox (which is March 20). This dating of Easter is based on the lunar calendar that Hebrew people used to identify Passover, which is why it moves around on our Roman calendar. Based on the above, Easter can actually be one day earlier (March 22) but that is pretty rare.

Here's the interesting info. This year is the earliest Easter any of us will ever see the rest of our lives! And only the most elderly of our population have ever seen it this early (95 years old or above!). And none of us have ever, or will ever, see it a day earlier! Here are the facts:

1) The next time Easter will be this early (March 23) will be the year 2228 (220 years from now). The last time it was this early was 1913 (so if you're 95 or older, you are the only ones who were around for that!).

2) The next time it will be a day earlier, March 22, will be in the year 2285 (277 years from now). The last time it was on March 22 was 1818. So, no one alive today has or will ever see it any earlier than this year

My DS7's birthday is on Easter this year.

Just had to share my parental pride with you all. Lauren was in the school gymnastics competition today & won 2 golds & 1 bronze, competing with girls from her year and the year above at school . Unfortunately she can't go on to represent the school next week as she has been selected to join the aerobics squad which is considered competitive gymnastics, so makes in ineligible!

Interesting facts on Easter & make our school terms wierd to say the least. They get Good Friday & Easter Monday off, then go back to school for a couple of weeks before getting a 2 week break w/c 7 April!

Celestine

Congratulations to your daughter !!
