Hi there!

I agree on the point that one person shouldn't be representative of an entire group of people. In fact I just responded to a PM from someone who was totally confused on what was going on (and thought something wrong- so I had to make sure she knew that wasn't the case) and in my PM to her I told her that it was just ONE person that sent both spam emails out and I would HOPE that if someone on this board were to email everyone on the other board telling them how much their board stinks and asking them to come to DIS instead- that those people would NOT think this was representative of all of us or speaking for all of us. It was one person, and we need to remember that it doesn't mean she's speaking for all of them on another board. That's all.. just one person.

I know some wonderful people that do post there but still post here! So I know that they wouldn't agree with the email about the DISboard being so horrible.

I agree. I don't want to be worrying about who I'm talking to and if they are on the same board/same group and what if I'm talking to so and so and the other group sees me talking to them and gets their panties in a wad thinking I've "changed" sides.. I don't want to have sides to this. I wish we could just all go together and not have to pick sides. :(

Oh and btw, this is just my opinion but I think it might be better that if we receive more emails from said person that we not discuss it on our thread. First off I don't want our thread to be closed down for any reason! But also it really confuses others who read about it but didn't receive the emails... it confused me the first time I heard "hint" about some other board and I had to go to PMs to ask about it and now I've been asked about this recently too (from more than one person). Maybe we could just PM Lisa or something to let her know it's going on (since she is a moderator) and leave it off this thread. :)


that is probably the best idea should it happen again!!!:thumbsup2
 
Mary Rose, thank you for your reply. :love: I didn't see it all but I have great memories of you and John and your lovely family! Believe me when I say that I wish they wouldn't do it, it only slurs the name of another great place to meet like minded people.

Julie, I live way down south in Cork (Cobh to be exact!) and it'll be nice to meet you too!

Darth, we're like one big family here (answer = no), but we are looking forward to raising the Triple Crowm on Saturday!

Moira.:)
 
Oh and thank you for the welcomes! And BIBOBOO (I was born lazy!) that's a great idea, and thanks for suggesting it.
 

Yup, I guess most of us have gotten it . Don't know what's behind it:confused3 ,but reminds me of DD's school days with cliques.

BIP sending some pixiedust: . Hope it turns out ok.

Tom, do you ever sleep?I remember the days I could stay up that late. Not anymore sadly to say. Love the pics of you and the spouse. Can't wait to meet you in person as you seem like a really fun guy.

Today is my TGIF:cool1: .Tomorrow we are going to see a Yankee spring training game at Disney. My DH bought a mitt with the dreams of catching a ball:lmao: First Thursday with no Dr. appts as well. No complaints with the knees since the shots.

They say 2 winners so far and there may be more. Wouldn't mind sharing in that pot. It's time to cook up dinner for later.

:wizard: Have a Magical time!!!!!:wizard:
 
To all with health issues, :grouphug: and :wizard: for a quick recovery. And for those who have loved ones with health issues, the same!! :grouphug: :grouphug: :wizard: :wizard: :grouphug: :grouphug:

And all I will say is LISA we love you!!! :grouphug: :love: :grouphug: :love:
 
Just a little update on our lives...

Jeff had his appt this morning and they did give him the shot in his shoulder but did not give him an Rx for anything for inflammation like I'd hoped. They also scheduled him with a physical therapist but it's at a local gym (the one we had a 3yr membership but it ended in Dec 2006 LOL) and I'm not sure if the therapist there accepts insurance. So this may end up being costly. :(

Meanwhile I have to contact my dr ASAP because I have something very scary going on right now. VERY scary- like bad scary (not like pregnant scary- that can't happen anyway! LOL)
Any prayers you can throw my way would be MUCH appreciated. :(

:grouphug: Certainly prayers are being sent your way for your DH and you too :wizard:
 
I feel like the Mastercard commercial...

Deposit on Trip of a Lifetime $2000
Wench Costume $ 200
Duct Tape $ 3


Sailing with Captain Jack and the kindest, funniest, most wonderful crew ever...Priceless!


:thumbsup2 :wizard: totally agree!!!!:wizard: :thumbsup2

couldn't think of a better way to spend TOAL and the time planning and waiting for it!!!!!:thumbsup2
 
OK - DD is here to show me how to post - 1st attempt - sorry if its big - still a newbie on this part - anyway - does anyone recognize this head waiter - I know his name is Alen but can't remember last name or country he's from. If anyone can help - would be greatly appreciated! Thanks and Lisa - sorry if its too big - now to find my PC night shot! Wish me luck!

PS. - that's a shot of the family minus DS-21 now 19 at the time - this is from our Mexican Rivera cruise July 23-30, 2005. The family vacation.

Great pic Laura!
 
I guess none of our Jersey folks are millionaires, huh? Oh well. (maybe we'll hold out for the ones in CA!) :rotfl:
We played too...We have Powerball here in MO, but Illinois has Mega, and Jen works "on the other side of the river". So she picks up tickets on her way home sometimes.

I'm going to pick up a Powerball ticket today when I stop for gas. It's only a mere 120 MIL for tonight's drawing, but that's still a good chunk of change...:lmao:

:grouphug: My thoughts are with you.
 
Also got the SPAM, and wasn't happy to receive it :sad2: Personally, I have enjoyed my time here getting to know you all, and am really looking forward to cruising with a whole bunch of new "friends". I like it here on the DIS and plan on sticking around. Lisa, you are doing a GREAT job ... not just on this thread, but throughout the cruise boards. THANK YOU for everything and know that I am very appreciative of your service.

Now, BACK to the imporant stuff ... :confused3 which song was it that we were singing along to this morning ;)

:grouphug: Have a good day, my friends. And for those of you kind enough to share your warm temps of the day with us, please don't be offended while I sit here enjoying average daily temps that are 30 degrees BELOW normal for this time of year and ignore you :rolleyes: Global Warming? My Big Toe!
 
Speaking of REPO men...

We were on NCL this past Christmas and were chosen to play "Family Feud". They asked each of us what we do for a living. The crew member was not American, but I don't remember what her nationality was right now....either way, she didn't understand English all that well. She got to my dad, and he said he was a "Repo Man". She didn't understand, and asked him to repeat it...about three times before my mom stomped on my Dad's foot. Then he told the truth and said "I'm retired" and my mom (who thought she was whispering, but forgot that dad was holding the microphone) said "More like retarded".......the audience thought it was hysterical....I was ready to slink slowly off the stage........:(

BTW...he used to sell insurance.

:rotfl: Great story.
 
OK all - hope this works - I hope you all enjoy and get to make your own pixiedust: memories in '08 (keep in mind this was at 8 pm - 1/2 hr to late seating)

Also - the next step is to learn how to resize so please accept my apologies if I'm driving you :crazy: on the sizing

That is beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing. :)
 
Yes the email was sent by the same person as last time. It was a pretty nasty email. I will forward the contents to anyone who wants it via PM...

Guys, the last thing we need to do is spread the animosity. Let's just focus on our cruise. Block sender on your email and move on. :thumbsup2

Hi Moira;

My grandparents left Cork city to come to America (and my oldest daughter has the red hair to prove it! my grandmother and all six of her siblings had various shades of red hair). If DCL can stop luring me with so many great trips, I want to bring my girls to Ireland . . .
