Okay...she's going to kill me....but I'm posting a picture of Shelley...BBB..BIP....and her family. She said she wasn't pretty and I'm here to challenge her on that. She's a doll and has a darling family

Shelley....

Thanks for sharing, Stacey.
Hey BIP, great pic

The New York Yankees play the Atlanta Braves at WDW tomorrow afternoon at the Wide World of Sports.

And it is SOLD OUT

Hey Lorri thems fightin' words METS fans here!

Though I grew up in the shadow of Shea, my heart has always belonged to the Yankees. But in the interest of not hurting the feelings of any of my friends's who may be Met's fans I won't get big into it until the playoffs

Well...

... at this point I believe we still all get to have 40 minutes more to fantasize about how we'd all apply our winnings. Anyone care for another round of 7 Mega Lotto questions? ANd since I lost track of my last 7 question deal and thus failed to answer my own questions (unintended)... here are my queries and answers below... Easier to quote and edit:

1) What would you take - lump sum or annual payments?
I want a LUMP SUM
2) What would be the FIRST application for your 1st dollar of proceeds?
I would pay off our mortgage debt
3) Where would go on your first trip with the proceeds?
I would take my expanded family to Italy ASAP
4) Would you continue working or maintain the MAJORITY of your routine?
Hard to imagine if I were the sole winnner of 1/3 a billion... or rather 100 million in after tax lump sum (estimated)
5) What charity or non-profit would be the 1st beneficiary of your windfall?
Make a Wish of the Tricounties would get a nice check from my family
6) Would you do anything special with the proceeds in the near future?
I would establish a self perpetuating scholarship fund in our family name. A little slice of immortality for us while helping a lot of kids in perpetuity.
7) What would be the most crazy thing you might do which otherwise would be far fetched to consider now?
I would buy a flight on the next space flight into orbit with the Russians! It might cost me $20,000,000 or so - but it would be worth it! HEY, I'm a Sci-fi fan... and this would definately count as a flight of fancy!

I didn't win the lottery last night, so y'all are on your own for the cruise. I will answer the seven questions:

1) What would you take - lump sum or annual payments?
Make mine lumpy.

2) What would be the FIRST application for your 1st dollar of proceeds?
I'd roll it up and light it on fire. Always wanted to do that.

3) Where would go on your first trip with the proceeds?
Europe. Probably Ireland.

4) Would you continue working or maintain the MAJORITY of your routine?
I'd finally open my own restaurant. Or buy a minor league baseball team.

5) What charity or non-profit would be the 1st beneficiary of your windfall?
It's mine. mine. mine. mine. mine.
No, the local pediatric hospital.

6) Would you do anything special with the proceeds in the near future?
See above.

7) What would be the most crazy thing you might do which otherwise would be far fetched to consider now?
See above.

I used to just be all lost in the supermarket, now I'm all lost on the DIS boards.

Lots of topics over the last few BAZILLION pages.

Let's see,

I had the strangest dreams when I used the patch to quit smoking. I mean really bizarre.

We got ice cream in the freezer & GS cookies in the pantry.

Taurus here. April 22.

Prayers for everyone who needs them & those who don't

OMG, you guys are booking rooms already.

I can't even think of the rest of the stuff I wanted to say.

You don't appear to be lost, you just summerized the last 1000 pages, maybe you can help out Lisa.

 

[lbgraves]

My family will fill four seats on a bus!!!!!


Lisa, you might want to change the discounted prices for HoJo's on the first page. The latest I know of is:

$71.20 for 2 queen beds with view of the highway
$75.20 for 2 queen beds with a pool view
$79.20 for 2 queen beds with a Disneyland view

Those who have other rates maybe you can let Lisa know what you have so they can all be posted on the first page.

Thanks, Andy! I will update the info.

 

[O'BWV]

OMG I have been on here too long!! This is from 1:30 this afternoon!

Caroline.....you're my hero!

 

[geffric]

Hey, I LOVE ice cream. I have a small chest freezer just for ice cream. My fav local ice cream place is only open April - October. So, when it's the end of September, I stock up on ice cream to last the winter till they open again. Usually I do quite well estimating, 1 half gallon per month. Chocolate, Earthquake, Bear Paw, ChocoPeanut Butter, etc. This time, I counted wrong and ran out in January. Well, I didn't count wrong, they closed early while I was in WDW.

anytime you want to come over here , we have lots of ice cream in the freezer. In fact that is why we bought a 2nd frig , so we would have more omm in the freezer for ice cream..

 

[yargrnhoj]

Hmmmm...about about another fabulous 80s sing along???

Maybe some Wham?

Please tell me you didn't. Wake me up before you go-go with a careless whisper.

 

[PBader]

I'm back, really need that nap. Probably will still be in the bed if Kevin had'nt called from the shop. Felt a little guilty not going up there with him today but I needed some peace and quiet for a few hours. The kids at school were just on my last nerve today. Nothing like having a 350 kids screaming "No gravy""No green beans" "I said I wanted gravy""No roll" "Miss Debi, Nigel cut-ed""What is that?" "Ewww,that's nasty" Aaaaaarg!! I think a I need a double Baccardi Coke.

Hope you enjoyed your quiet time

 

[dahuffy]

In regards to my earliertimes I posted - approximate and I'm assuming you all know that by time I meant walking time. - just wanted to clarify!

Thanks for the clarification as we aren't planning on renting a car for just 1 day.

 

[got2travel]

You are all wicked smart...

does anyone know what Colcannon is?


Chrissie

Probably already answered......but......
I remember learning to make it based on a money saving thread on the Budget Board.....gotta love DIS....mashed potatoes with kale or cabbage, just can't remember which veggie right now.

Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen

This thing called love I just can't handle it
this thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love
This (This Thing) called love
(Called Love)
It cries (Like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (Woo Woo)
It jives (Woo Woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish,
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love
There goes my baby
She knows how to rock n' roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip
Get on my tracks
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip
Get on my tracks
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready (Ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love This thing called love I just can't handle it
this thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love

I liked the B-52's.

Hey dont forget about Wham Rap ....member that one ??

 

[The FairyGodmother]

Hey Lorri thems fightin' words METS fans here!

Do we really want to go there? Tiger Fans!!!! I watched every game. Didn't get to go to any though.

Glad to hear that you are feeling better. Take care of yourself & get well soon!

I will, thanks.

 

[O'BWV]

Though I grew up in the shadow of Shea, my heart has always belonged to the Yankees. But in the interest of not hurting the feelings of any of my friends's who may be Met's fans I won't get big into it until the playoffs

Hey we like the Yankees too! There just no. 2 on our list! Besides a little hometown rivalry is always fun. In our extended family..sis, bros....we have a big mix of Mets & Yankees fans......sometimes it's a fun rivalry.....sometimes it's not

 

[yargrnhoj]

DARN...only 1 number....guess i'll have to pay for the cruise the old fashioned way.....

Embezzlement?

 

[lbgraves]

Well isn't this a fun 'get ta know ya' exercise.
We've got ourselves a head bangin' SA minister sailing with us.
Pretty cool Brack!

How funny! After you meet Brack you will still think he & his wife are the nicest people.
