I am so jealous of all the mini-meets. We simply can't afford to go to WDW before this cruise- we're saving for this TOAL ofcourse!

Am I the ONLY Texan on this thread? Can't we get a little mini-meet somewhere down these parts? I guess not if I'm the lone Texan here...

Shelley,
I'm in California - I guess we'll just have to meet here just prior to the cruise.
I love to take my 3 gdks and travel. But - our next trip is to Hawaii over Spring Break to visit family.
(okay - I will be in Florida - just passing thru though - you know that med repo - that I'm soooo excited about - but that doesn'nt count - kinda)

Whatever, I don't even want to hear about your med repo. Just keep that to yourself. I'm not listening. lalalala *fingers in my ears*
:rotfl:
But seriously...I'm so jealous and you have to tell us all about it afterwards. So I can live vicariously thru you!

Oh and btw- can you adopt me? I make a great gdk. I swear! :hug:
;)

Okay I'm getting punchy. I probably need some sleep...
Sure it would be great to meet you before the cruise in Ca... but that's such a long time away. I will find it "interesting" if I'm the only Texan going on this cruise/posting on this thread and all that. Maybe no one else wants to admit they are from the same state as me? hahahaha
 
mr. V., sorry things been hot where you live...you're welcome anytime
to come and dip in our pool. however, i better warn you, our water
is very, very wet. :scared: did you like my names for the new ships?


Thanks so much, if we lived closer I would have taken you up on your offer, I like very, very, wet pools, makes landing on the bottom so much softer.......:rotfl:

Sorry LG, I must have missed your names for the new ships........:confused3

Your thoughts farther down in your post were quite touching, thanks for sharing your feelings!!! I just got offline with the theatre that My Lady and I went to last evening. I just ordered us season tickets for the 2008 shows the theatre is putting on. We really had a nice time last night, and now that our ST is getting older, and she has her friends to keep her occupied, it's time for dear old momster and dadster to share some quality time together again, sadly, it's something we have missed over the past several years.
 
p.s., ...i'm wearing those crazy...like a fox ..crocs! well, i' always been
a fan of gators!


mr. v !..gotta get a pair! :thumbsup2


I was looking at them the other day, but never tried them on, I guess I should have, huh??? :confused3
 

I think you see my self proclaimed tag. Notice that it is still in black.

Is that a little tag fairy envy? :lmao:


I figured you were working last night, based on the periodic drive by postings you were doing. I'm sure Saturday nights are as exciting as Friday nights....


So, what are the hallucinogenic properties of nutmeg?:lmao: :lmao:
 
We had a wonderfrul time at the Yankee game today. It was great getting to finally meet Lorri and Sil and I it felt like meeting up with old friends with Pete and Jack. Here is a larger picture of the one Lorri posted and of A Rod's follow through hitting 500! :goodvibes

You know we are going to be cruising with some pretty great folks! Pete I will get you copies of the pics! Hope it didn't take you and Jack too long to get home Thanks again:)

That is a great shot!
 
Good morning everyone! I'm afraid I missed chat last night - I was working on my Grandma's birthday gift and totally forgot it was chat night. She is 99 today! I bought her a digital picture frame and was selecting and loading photos on it last night. The frame has a 9:6 ratio which of course isn't what photos usually are, so I cropped every one to the right size so they would look nice and not have the black bars alongside. I think the frame looks better in "landscape" position, so it was a little challenging since I have a tendancy to take most of my pictures in "portrait"!

Grandma is rather amazing - she still lives on her own. She has some help that comes in a few days per week to help her with stuff like laundry and little chores that are getting difficult for her. Of course, her older cousin is 102 and rapidly recovering from a cracked hip bone! Her younger cousin is 95 and she golfs several times per week! Those "Anderson girls" (as they are still called back in their Iowa hometown :rotfl2: ) are pretty tough cookies!

I'll be going to visit her later today, so I won't be here much. See ya'll later....

Pamela (pdarrah)

That is awesome Pam! Enjoy your visit. :)

i do miss mary rose...:guilty: and all the rest.


..finally, iam with " ms. fairy godmother"..all the way!..we 're only giving
up ..if destiny * ( :cool2: name for one of the ships?) re~routes our future
or death.....for better or worst, we are going to be shipmates...* i can//
have been contary...i am not sorry when those ignored common
coutesty ...but iam sorry when i make a mistake. it is my wish, pixiedust:
for shipmates...:grouphug: & attitudes of :goodvibes .

to me, i admired judy for posting...first she had no interest and it reflected
a person of having alot of feelings toward others. iam sorry i made the
mistake of ever giving her the wrong impression. again, i feel sorry for
my lost..losing the opportunity of not meeting someone of her caliber.

almost everything i posted before this was in fun. to me, i don't/can't
undersand how anyone would/could blame lisa. i admire her dedication
to her family..but also recognizing her community needs..wow! cos
she is so young. * it befuddles me..as anyone could not see the ways
she feels...? & i never -ever met her.

...[ when she posted..are you serious? ...i knew she had been hurt, & i
felt sad...she didn't deserved it. ]

me? the point iam at today..was an accumlation of experiences and
being blessed. not al my stories had happy endings.. .& what I did
expressed are...just a few..very few. my most "treasured blessing" on
earth...is being blessed~with my wife's company to share my life with..
and our family. l like to share- what drove my values home...early...
in my marriage..i was feeling mean and made the mistake of telling
my wife, i cheated on her [thinking that what i had to offer was little
value]....in an instance...i saw a "look'..on her face...that i never
wanted to experienced again--i felt so bad- the hurt...even though
untrue...i saw right then- how painful...cheating could be...& that's
..even after 30 years,..i have no desires/ nor any temptations will
make me weak...how could i? .."seeing her beautiful face..and
inside..the person that had given me my greatest blessings...
that is my strength...and will. :hug:

*just so happpend ,there's a thread on the community board ?
about borderline personality disorder....its ok to make misatkes, but
if one is relating to those type of behaviors....one needs to find
the motivation for corrective measures....if one desires true happiness.
[ part of the reason for my happiness, is finding a lil'courage to make
improvemnts...* if not, and we cross paths..this is my line of work..
one can expect interventions prn...as i see no values in those hurting
others to make themselves "feel' better about their image.

my interest here...was made when i started posting, and my desire, is
to support this :grouphug:


LG thank you and I Miss You TOO!!!! I appreciate your words of wisdom and insight!

I miss sooooo many of you!!!

Maybe this can be a time for healing on our thread. Somethings are sooooo hard to do in writing! Things are easily confused and even less easily explained away, but do know the following things to be true:

1) Many good friends feelings are hurt.
2) Many goods friends are confused, even bewildered.
3) Many good friends feel underappreciated.
4) Many good friends feel they've been thrown under the bus.
5) Many good friends NEVER want to see our thread CLOSED down EVER
6) Many good friends feel so strongly about the items above that they are no
longer cruising with us and/or no longer post here.

If you read back through the posts, LG is absolutely correct, there is hurt behind what appears to be anger in some posts.

It is sad, deep down to the core sad. I have passed away many a day and night posting, chatting, laughing and crying here and I miss it!

We are a large group and it is NOT possible for us all to get along and like one another, life just doesn't work that way.

I think some people deserve apologies and some people ought to offer apologies. I think I fall of both sides of that, but today I am offering my apologies, for things I posted and things I thought, for not being as grateful or as understanding as I should have, for being a chicken when I should have stood up for some, and for trying to sway popular opinion when I had no right to do. For these things, and for many things I AM SORRY!

Alas I am MR and so I will leave this serious subject with a little funny. I will approach this thread from this perspective from now on: Opinions are like Butts...............we all got 'em.........and they all STINK!
 
:thumbsup2 pics, pbager and everyone..has big smiles....what a great
experience...too.



..ok...crash cpt., rigggght ?....going to feel sorry for you..in hawuii,

however, if you want to shock the wenches...be my guess.

..oh, you might be related to paul revere or that another raider? might'yo?

silly in..to break the ice...or i could be testing for any weakness for
distracting you away from thos awful ( very fattening )...:mickeybar

bars?...and greedo to...a trait i blame on her mother...howver, when it
comes to vegtables..she'll give'um right off her plate....figured that one

robin. ]

mr. V., sorry things been hot where you live...you're welcome anytime
to come and dip in our pool. however, i better warn you, our water
is very, very wet. :scared: did you like my names for the new ships?

..after midnight...all wenches invited for a fun time skinny dipping...
well? what would you do swabbies, when the captain away?

i do miss mary rose...:guilty: and all the rest. i sure hope sk8..gets
settled so she can sneak on back....she probably making up a new obstacle
course..or climbing the washington m. ? however, not unusal for lady
bobcat...& she got the meowing down pat! :thumbsup2 , go green!

So, what are the hallucinogenic properties of nutmeg?:lmao: :lmao:

From Wikipedia,
Nutmeg

Nutmeg seedsMain article: Nutmeg
In low doses, nutmeg (Myristica fragrans) produces no noticeable physiological or neurological response. In amounts of 5–20g it is a mild to medium hallucinogen, producing visual distortions and a mild euphoria.[2] Use of nutmeg as a recreational drug is unpopular due to its unpleasant taste and its side effects, including dizziness, flushes, dry mouth, accelerated heartbeat, temporary constipation, difficulty in urination, nausea, headache, and panic. A user will not experience a peak until approximately six hours after ingestion, and effects can linger for up to three days afterwards.

The pharmacology professor that I got it from had first hand knowledge of it with a first hand account.

I must give a Shout Out to my Good Jade East Friend Sil! Excellent Job Pal!

I am so sorry to have missed what looked like a really great time! And I must concur that Pete and Jack and families are the Hosts with Most!

Hiya Laura and Roger!!

Tonight we have The Police Concert at Giants Stadium and we're totally stoked!
 
I saw the Police in Mid-July in Philly. They were beyond great. You'll have an awesome time.



Thanks Lisa! I have been hearing really great things about their concerts (after hearing terrible things early on) Glad you enjoyed it. We saw them at Live Earth last month and their few songs totally rocked the house so we have high hopes for tonight's show!

They are all three phenominal musicians, but, Sting? His voice is spot on. And, he still makes me weak in the knees. :rotfl2:

Am I the ONLY Texan on this thread? Can't we get a little mini-meet somewhere down these parts? I guess not if I'm the lone Texan here...

Don't worry...you are not the only Texan on this thread!! I live in Houston, sorry if I don't post much but all I have time for right now is just to read on what is going on!! I will be in San Antonio the first half of the week and in Arlington from Wed. thru Fri.
 
I will approach this thread from this perspective from now on: Opinions are like Butts...............we all got 'em.........and they all STINK!

oh come on....:lmao: Really...Where is the tag fairy when you desperately NEED HER?

You are missed by quite a few here (as well as others who haven't been posting.)
 
BTW ....had to change the signature... 60 was so last month...

It's -70 as of this morning (so fitting on the eve of our 70K post)...:banana: :banana: (i loose weird in steps)

Going to Towson to meet Brack and Annette for lunch at the Rain Forest Cafe there..... VOLCANO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure they will have a camera...will post pics later.... If i miss the 70K mark congrats to that pirate:
 
I am a WB cruiser....

I see no reason to start involving the press in this....


I like Joel110's idea of writing to the newspapers (usatoday). I decided to "hit them where the live". I will be drafting a letter tonight to both reporters listed below for the Orlando Sentinel. Please join me in corresponding to these two gentlemen.


Thank you,

Jeff
