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

Oh man...I hadn't read this, but look what I posted RIGHT after you! spooky!

Yep. Kind of like that old adage: "Two minds in the same gutter." Isn't that how it goes?

I would have said "Two great minds think alike," but I know Crash would never let us get away thinking we had great minds!

Well, I might look like the middle age Mrs. Incredible in that outfit...

That is still better than Mrs. Mediocre.

Thanks to everyone for their kind welcome.
I'm new at this posting thing, but I will try, as my husband (Peter) and my brother (Jack/Fincantieri) have been after me do do so for months.
Hi to everyone.

Tom. Cheryl and the rest of the 'troublemakers': Be careful how much you complain:

"Complaining couple banned from cruise line: Think you can't be blacklisted from the high seas? Meet the Morans"

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24711659/

I won't ever, ever, ever complain again!

He'll turn 10 the day before CC.
Besides, he had his first penance earlier this year, he can just head straight to your verandah after the game.

He'd be welcome . . . as long as he doesn't tinkle over the side!

He could go back to his friends and talk about going to Mass and confession on a cruise ship. Not something most of his classmates will have done in their young years, that's for sure.

This doesn't sound too great:

We then had a beer tasting to attend - we were both looking forward to this since the tequila tastings had been so good. We got to the tasting and on the table was:

1 bottle of Bud Light
1 bottle of Coors Light
1 can (yes, can) of Miller Light

The person leading the lecture tasting was from Anheuser-Busch, and while he seemed very knowledgeable and passionate about beer, I just wanted a flippin’ drink! We waited almost 60 minutes for a taste, and while this guy droned on and on, the beer sat at the table getting warmer and warmer..., which is what he wanted. We finally drank the warm light beer, and then he moved on to warm imported beer. Again, we had to wait while he told us about the sizes and types of glasses that beer should be served in. When he told us that a pilsner should be served in a champagne flute, we knew it was time to go

Yikes

Hopefully she can convert him!

We're hoping! 24dd has always loved Disney and the idea of someone that doesn't even want to give it a try......

For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting Nutritional st udies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

CONCLUSION
Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

This doesn't sound too great:

Note to self..... PIRATES should run their own beer tasting event with cold beverage on Deck 9 by the adult pool.

 

[Stepht5]

This doesn't sound too great:

DH would stroke out.....He has a couple of books about beers and has a list of new ones to try......One night teen dd & I got to hear all about why Porters are called Porters at dinner.... I finally told him that we didn't care and didn't want to hear another word about beer. ever.

Fortunately (or unfortunately) it gets easier. I end up spending way too much time on the DIS.

what if I speak a un petit Francais and pequeno Espanol....does that lower my risk slightly?

This doesn't sound too great:

Seriously???
That's terrible.

Well I'm German and Italian, so I have my wine and pasta with beer and sausage. I only speak English, so I have no chance anyway.

If I walk into our beer tasting and there's can's sitting on the table, I will walk back out

Oui and sí

Okay, I am really behind by quite a bit. Drive by posting. Is anyone else having trouble with the t-shirt ordering. I had preordered, but I am trying to get the actual order through, but it will not list anything. Will have to try to ketchup later.
Thanks

 

[AndyR]

Like that will matter? I thought it was, "What happens on the ship stays on the ship!"

I picked up a shirt which sez: What happens on board, stays on board
