8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 13

[mousehouseman]

OK why am I up at this hour? I am having my gas promotion this morning. $1 a gallon. Starts at 7am. Just spoke with my 3rd shift cashier--he said the customers have been driving him nuts all night. We have had police officers on the lot since 2am. Customers have been trying to camp out at the pumps since about 1 am. Each customer will save $38 today during the promotion.

$1.00 a gallon, gas here in Chicago area just went to $3.65 overnite. I drive 52 miles a day, it's killing me.

Good morning all

all. DH talked me into joining the ranks. Was at the Disney store today and saw an Elizabeth Swan outfit (Asian one) for girls for $50. Plus the shoes and the headress...... It was beautiful, has anyone else seen it? My DD6 Austyn would make a beautiful Elizabeth.

Sometimes it's better to be fun and well-equipped than be a super genius!!!

AMEN Sister!!!!!

Pretty much "summed" it right up

groan....

I totally agree Stace! So, let's just all agree the Brainiacs are all really, really, really, really smart. They are all equally as smart as one another, and they are smarter than each and every one of us "regular" peeps! They win! Now back to our regularly scheduled DISsing! Thank you!

Just for the record, I only linked to pictures and cut/paste pie, I mean Pi, from Wikipedia, I was not actually discussing math.....

 

[tom31b]

THANK YOU!!!!!​

for showing that it is possible for one person to get two posts in a row in the same minute with several others posting in that same minute to claim the pirate!

I saw that and figured you would appreciate it.....

Of course JR took 79 out of 100 posts in a row..... must have had a little too much coffee....

Pie, did someone mention pie, I like pie, almost as much as

I feel like Alice after falling down the rabbit hole. Or is that Dorothy waking up in the Land of Oz? Or perhaps I AM back in that horror of high school and college.

But somehow, I could have sworn I logged onto the DIS. A place for fun and fancy and discussion of cruises, trips and stinky teens!

No....instead I find myself lost in the netherworld of brainy mathematicians trying to one-up eachother.

LilGrumpy...whatever wonderful world you live in...will you take me there, please? It's way more fun than all this math crap.
Loved your pictures and your memories. I wish we could fill pages with those!

Advanced math gives me a headache. I know enough to get by, but when the talk turns to math I'm outta here!

I was beginning to feel the same way........... .....................
(I am glad it wasn't just me)

Ditto!

A formula that this crowd can sink it's teeth into!

Now that is math that I can stomach! I think I'll have some

Ditto and thank you MR!

Depends really ....they want me to do pictures ...they are setting up a back drop ..something like Disney so who knows ...but I am sure at least 4 or 5 all the way through ......

OH MY! The eye roll is for Melissa's benefit. You are going to be impossible to be around for a week or so. I hope that they have you set up in AC. I can't imagine that the outfit would be comfortable for that many days.

 

[lbgraves]

Oh my - I decided okay I'm going!! Westbound Transatlantic Repo - went to the website and DCL's computer is down!!! I sure hope that isn't an omen.

HOW EXCITING!!!!!!

Morning..

 

[lbgraves]

OK...now that it is officially the morning after....let's get down to a sderious discussion.

If you haven't watched your tape of AI or DWTS yet....this is your spoiler warning for the next post & beyond.

 

[lbgraves]

I nearly did it myself one time, of course I had two computers going at the same time..............

Now I don't see how anyone could possibly think that I have an advantage for the pirates with someone doing that! We only have one.

 

[lbgraves]

OK...here goes!!!!


First of all AI!!!!!! O---M---G!!!!!! Jordin was AMAZING last night!!!!! I enjoy Blake's bbopping but only the first song was good for him last night IMO. The second song was just blah and the last one had no business ever coming from his diaphram. He was flat at several points & looked extremely uncomfortable...especially apparent when he was bouncing up & down in the middle of the song. Let's just say I hope that he doesn't win so that he doesn't have to ever sing This is My Now again. They always have a song like that for the final song...so it's not like they purposely chose a song that he wouldn't be able to sing. Melinda would have sung it beautifully too. I know that some people are posting that Jordin has rich parents who have given her everything but I have to say SO WHAT? They can't buy her a voice that sounds like that. That is a gift.



Now for DWTS! WHOOOO-HOOOOOO!!!!!! I am so glad that Apollo and Julliane won!!! They are such a cute couple...I read that her engagement has been postponed. Engaged at 18??? How can you know what you want at that age? I would LOVE to see this year's tour.

I was going to post the same thing!!! This is a subject that I can sink my teeth into.

This one isn't bad either....and cream cheese and bananas sound a little more appropriate for breakfast.

Looks like youll be joining some of us from this cruise as well .....

your too funny ...yes they will have AC ..its inside a big casino ..lol

That needs to be a tag!

And I agree! I love looking at everyones pics! And there is a reason dh & I pay someone else to teach High School math to our kids (we homeschool).

 

[lbgraves]

your too funny ...yes they will have AC ..its inside a big casino ..lol

LOL! Well, I knew that Melissa and I would get along well when I met you guys at the Goofy pool the first afternoon of the cruise and told her that we weren't too sure what to expect with you and your "CJS obsession." She seemed glad to hear someone else use that word. Just in case anyone else has been wondering about that...both Todd and Melissa are really nice people.
