I loved "Bowman the Showman"!

 

[sk8ingmom]

I loved "Bowman the Showman"!

He was pretty amazing for a guy who never actually bothered to practice.

He was also the figure skater most likely to OD and die in a seedy motel room (besides Tonya Harding). So sad.

I loved "Bowman the Showman"!

Me too...just did a quick search and discovered that he passed away this past January - he was only 40 years old

It was really sad...he died of a drug overdose in some motel..I think it was like a Budget Inn or something here in LA. I love figure skating..a few years back (can't remember which year - whenever the last Nationals were here in LA) my DH bought tickets for the 3 of us to go watch the exhibitions that the medalists did. It was so incredible..we were in the 2nd row and really enjoyed it. My family knows..when I have ice skating on..either sit down and watch or leave me alone!

 

[sk8ingmom]

HA!

Daniel Craig was in Casino Royal
with Judy Dench who was in Die Another Day
with Pierce Brosnan who was in Mrs. Doubtfire
with Robin Williams who was
Genie in Disney's Aladin!

We don't need no stinkin' Adrian Zmed!

Green chile stacked enchiladas ROCK!

Yummy!

i'm a little behind on the reading but in case you didn't know jetblue will grandfather all who booked prior to the charging of the second bag.... i got that in writing from them. hope that helps

Thanks!! Someone else had mentioned that too. I tried e-mailing them, also to have it in writing, but only got a form response. I'm going to keeping tyring.

And, Jennifer? I thought resistance was futile?

Actually, according to the guards in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, it's useless. What can I say.... the Vogon's crack me up more than the Borg.

Well actually that is either tomorrow or yesterday depending on the way you look at it (doing this backward ) but definitely not today. Of course by this time we all probably won't know what day it is anyway.

I barely know what today is, forget what today is backwards on a cruise 90+ days from now!! I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.

yet, again, I don't remember drinking the Mojitos...

I remember drinking a Mojito and never again. Tasted like a stinky geranium!

Richard Simmons wears those teeny-tiny silky shorts on TV shows where everyone else is wearing a suit. I don't even want to think about his swimwear.



Today is the first day of the rest of your cruise.

Or was that yesterday? No wait, tomorrow?



BUZZZZZZZZZZ.
Sorry. Time's up.





That's it!



Yeah, just picture those with haircuts and suits.




Turn around...bright eyes...

Gosh I hate that song. Thanks Lisa.

This might really surprise you, but I have it on my IPOD!

Daniel Craig in Golden Compass with Nicole Kidman
who was married to Tom Cruise
who was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon & Keifer Southerland
who was in The Lost Boys with Christopher Bowman

I thought you were doing that on purpose....

What looking like a doofus or posting groundhogs? Guess it doesn't matter, I can't help doing either one!

It really was sad. He was just a guy who never had control of his life. Sure not the thing that put him over the edge, but his my was the stereotypical psycho stage/skating mom.

LA Nationals was 2002. That must have been a great show.
You are getting Worlds in 2009. Last one before 2010 Olympics, should be amazing. Get tickets if you can!

 

[discruiser]

Born in Abq, raised in Rio Rancho, college in Socorro and then UNM again

I love my homemade/from a can stacked enchiladas I usually will only eat my own LOL

Small world! I moved to Rio Rancho back in 1981, graduated from Cibola in 1987 and then went to NMSU, where I met my husband. DH graduated from HS in Alamogordo and then received his bachelor's from NM Tech. Are you living in Albq/Rio Rancho right now? We're in Houston. It's not too bad, but it doesn't have mountains or good (New) Mexican food!

hmmm - I will send an email to the shore excursion department and see what they have to say

I wonder if too many people booked some of the options directly with the vendor and the vendor pulled out of offering them to DCL?

The only one I see listed is the sunset sail

and sometimes lower 900's, especially if it's late at night!!!

True dat -- and even earlier if Crash is involved . . . sorry, Crash but it's TRUE!

I feel much the same way. I have an idea - we can create an artificial inside joke. All we have to do is pick a word or phrase and remember to laugh hysterically any time someone says it. For example:

"Remember the shoelace?!?!"

"Five deckchairs at a time!"

"The shots heard around the ship!"

Everyone will think it's an inside joke, even though it's a complete fake.
(Personally, I think many inside jokes are created in just this way)

But those all are already our inside jokes, Dan! OMG, the shoelace . . . and Stace . . . five deckchairs . . . and Sk8ingmom . . . the shots heard around the ship . . . Radioclash . . . thanks for bringing back all those memories!

Julie
I just heard back from the shore excursion department
Rhythm of the nights is available - There was a computer glitch with it but it is fixed and now on the list of available shore excursion to book for the EB

The evening horseback excursion they are going to get back to me on as they think this one will not be offered.

The Sunset Sail is available at 6:15pm

All of these are for the PV port

Thanks for doing this, Jo! Too bad about the horseback riding because I think dahuffy wanted to do it . . . was that you, Debi?

Brad Pitt was married to Jennifer Aniston
Jennifer Aniston was in Along Came Polly with Philip Seymour Hoffman
Philip Seymour Hoffman was in Charlie Wilson's War with Tom Hanks

Give me a few minutes to figure out a disney connection...

Daniel Craig was Master Kane in Disney's "A Kid in King Arthur's Court" . . . but I'm sure you already knew that . . .
