8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 15

[captaincrash]

JR - you're a CHAMP....

The chat is working on the site - and as I understand it if you want you can sign on as a "GUEST" if your access is giving you any trouble. Not sure exactly WHAT that means (IE - what sort of problem point would be resolved by this).

See ya in "The PirateZONE" chat hopefully!

 

[paulasillars]

Does anyone else here listen to the DIS Unplugged podcast? I've been listening for nearly a year and really enjoy it. It is hosted by Pete (the guy who started the DIS) and several other folks who help run the site. The Disney info is good and the banter is a lot of fun.

(For those who haven't heard of a "podcast" before - it is sort of like a talk radio show on the internet. You can listen on your computer or download it to your MP3 player.)

I download it every week and then listen to it as I drive to and from work (and chaufering DS8 around). My MP3 player plugs into a little device that broadcasts the sound to my car radio. If you click on the orange bar in my signature, it will take you to the podcast's homepage....

Pamela (pdarrah)

I'm a long time listener too - they have me in fits of laughter at times. I have to remember to be careful where I'm listening or I get some odd looks walking around laughing to myself.

Paula

 

[paulasillars]

I'll have to check that out. I didn't realize that you could download it and put it on an iPod. Thanks for the info.

You can subscribe via iTunes too which is even easier so it automatically downloads the shows as they release them.

Paula join us in Chat.

 

[pdarrah]

Paula - have you voted for it at PodcastAlley? There is a link from the Podcast page. When I did it yesterday, they were in 16th place for July! It would be cool to push them up into the top 10.

Have been reading but not writing I have had a bad week health wise. Spent all day Monday in the Dr's office and he spend over well over an hour with me. He is a very caring Dr. Being in the medical field this is really rare when all the higher ups are looking for volume. I have worked in Labor and D elivery and in medical offices for over 25 yrs. and you don't see this too often. I have to go back on Monday am and hopefully see what is going on. Sorry for going off subject.

Is there chat going on tonite?

Have a great day!

Karen

Karen there is no subject except getting to know each other & you're not off it! I wish you all the best!

Believe it or not, it seemed he hadn't been to bed . . . or perhaps woke up in the night and couldn't get back to sleep . . . not sure. The strangeness of the hour seemed to be reflected in all those bizarre full monty postings . . .

This made me chuckle!

DW and I just got some good news that FIL and MIL agreeded to watch the kids for a couple of days in August. That means that DW and I can actually get away without the kids. It has been almost 2 years since that has happened. Soooo its.....

Vegas baby.

Woohoo!!!

For those of us natives or long time Californian's, it's no big deal. But I saw an interview this morning with a tourist from Boston. He was pretty freaked out and said he's outta here.....the news anchor followed up and said he was already leaving today anyway

Ah yep! That would be me!!!

I just heard from my Cardiologist on my Stress Test....I Passed!!! There was a small abnormality but he isn't too concerned about it,could have been a shadow. Supposed to keep doing what I'm doing. I was so afraid they'd find something,that's the kind of luck we've been having lately.

Thank you for all of the well wishes prayers and
I truly believe that it made a difference.

Yeah! So happy to hear the good news!

Well this is a bummer! I actually had about 45 minutes free to chat tonight (OK - not long compared to some, but pretty good for me!) I was sitting here, root-beer in hand, all ready to join in! Rootbeer is the closest I can get folks - I'm allergic to alcohol and can't even drink small quantities

Pamela (pdarrah)

I already had a few shots to get geared up for chat & now nothing? Just kidding! I only had coke! Cocoa Cola that is! Don't need to be drunk to join in. In fact trust me on this one....you're much better off if you're not!

 

[allshookup]

So I came floating by to see if anyone was chatting to see that chat was down.

Go to THE website and try the chat link and see if it works for y'all. No guarantees -- I just installed it and have never used it before.

J. R.

Thanks J. R.!!!

 

[allshookup]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TINA/Downrivermama!!!

[captaincrash]

Well...

... chat was nice tonite. Not the usual mass crowd - but nice. May I offer public thanks to JR for graciously setting it up in "The Pirate ZONE" for us in a snap tonight!

[captaincrash]

Well...

.. the threads' activity totals are mounting. The number of hits or visits to the thread now stand at 697,979! And obviously we're at 68,136+ postings. Amazing eh? The thread has existed since January 13th - 2:39PM. So to this postings' moment of initial inclusion (10:12PM) it makes it 188 days + 7 hours and 33 minutes old. This equates to 271,173 minutes.

So ... we've generated one new posting every 3 minutes and 58.792708700246565692145121521663 seconds. This also means we've had one new visit or hit to the thread every 23.31070132482495891710209046404 seconds over the life of the thread. So... I figure we have 392 days, 18 hours and 48 minutes to embarkation - assuming a 5PM embarkation. that translates into 565,608 minutes to go for us til we sail. SO... if we continue this pace of posting and hits - I would like to offer an unaudited estimate of an additional 142,116.9 postings to come to make for an estimated grand total of 210,253 postings at embarkation! Plus the number of hits is estimated to add 1,455,832.6 new hits/visits. So... the total hits/visits to the thread is estimated to be 2,153,812 at an embarkation time of 5PM.

It took me 37 minutes (including one small interruption to deal with a fiesty 3 year old!) to create this posting excluding the time spent to add this final comment. Not too bad, eh?​

I love listening to the podcast each week. They are hilarious. I Love BOB!!!

 

[Friend_of_Piglet]

Have a very Happy Saturday everyone!!!

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Todd, that was the first thing that I thought of, being able to meet you and your family, but alas it will be August 16-18th. I think that you will be in Europe or on your way to board the Magic. Don't worry, the family will probably be back for spring break next year.

Yep ...we Leave Early morning on the 16th ..dang .....Well dont forget we are planning a DIS meet at DL the weekend of March 14 ..Dont forget ...I think a nice lunch or dinner in DTD or DL at the Blue Bayou would be the perfect setting for us Pirates ....

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Anyone traveling to Vegas before Sept 30, you can get tickets to all the cirque shows for $50. These are the good seats too, not way in the back.

http://www.ticketmaster.com/summerofcirque

You get to purchase the tickets for $50 and also be entered into to win a trip to see any other cirque show.



I may take a visit to Vegas just to see Zumanity!

LOVE Zumanity ...I think it is one of the best Cirque shows in town ...

 

[captaincrash]

Happy Birthday wishes to Tina

[paulasillars]

Sorry I had to dive out of chat suddenly today. I just realised how late it was getting and I had a few chores I needed to do before it got dark.

We are having a really busy time at the moment as my inlaws are separating so we are helping them pack boxes as they have sold their house and need to be out by the 3rd August. Things should start to settle a bit after that.

Hope to catch you all next week!

I was just heading to the podcast boards to see how to download the podcast, but stopped here to ketchup first. (Yes, it's an addiction.) Thanks for the tip. I'll set it up through itunes now.

Paula - have you voted for it at PodcastAlley? There is a link from the Podcast page. When I did it yesterday, they were in 16th place for July! It would be cool to push them up into the top 10.

Pamela (pdarrah)

I'll check that out too and vote for them.
