[atakaratemom]

Congrats, you did it. And with that I'm to bed. Night all!

 

[got2travel]

The countdown is on!!

I missed 2,000 (only earlier this evening) so will have to settle for 2,100. CRAZY that another 100 posts have gone by.

We'll just have to have a late night post fest when we get close to 3k....or some other k....at the rate we're going, we'll get to 3k tomorrow..

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Is this as good as the mile high club???????

Oh come on ....

 

[got2travel]

I feel sorry for all those poor souls who are sleeping peacefully right now. Imagine the shock when they get up and head for their morning dose of DIS.

I hope you all grab your coffee first, your gonna need it.

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Pirate wench power & whatnot.

WOW! Snagging #2,000 was dumb luck on my part.

No such things as dumb luck ...your a Pirate now ...LOL

I think I'll join you--oh wait, blackbelts everywhere. Not that much of a pirate. Off to my bed I slink!!

I think when I left work today I was some where around page 118. Last count (almost too hard to stay current) we are at 141.

Good morning (or maybe afternoon at this point if you are finally catching up) to the rest of the crew.

G' nite.

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Wait until everyone gets up and realizes that yesterdays tally count went from page 109 to page 138 or more.

What do you mean next morning ...I went away to watch AI and I come back to almost 10 pages ...This is plain nuts ...I wonder if we are going to scare off people that make there ressies on wednesday expecting to find a very new thread for the August PC Repo ...LOL

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Here you go!

Okay this is almost as bad as Bobby the Banana ...I think the Monkey should be the Mascot for this cruise ....Of course we have to name him JACK ....

Jack the Monkey

 

[DisneyVegas1]

OK, in honor of Lisa's Ode to Shakespeare (who I am sure would be immensely proud of this thread) I have surmised what his assessment might be were he here to join us.

To cruise, or not to cruise: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the end to suffer
The scrimping and debt of spending a fortune,
To set sail upon a sea with Captain Jack,
No use opposing it then? To cruise: to pillage;
Once more; and by pillage to say we give not
and take all and the thousand natural shocks
of final tab at cruises end, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd away. To cruise, to pillage;
To plunder: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For once you cruise with Captain Jack what dreams may come

Sweet Dreams Everyone!

That was GREAT ...LOVE it

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Loved the video and yes I still hear the music in my head. Thanks Todd!

Your Welcome ....What did I do ???

Getting back to today's anticipated press event. Looks like the early leaks of an event at Disneyland today were wrong. There are definitely things happpening at WDW this week, but so far DL has been quiet.

I did however, find this at Career Builder. You can win a Disney Dream Job for a day, along with a trip to DL.

[captaincrash]

...on snapping up the 2100th!

[captaincrash]

OK folks...

Time to take stock of how this VOYAGE is progressing here....

We embarked on 1-13-2007 at 2:39PM PST... so RIGHT NOW we are approximately 11 days, 11 hours and 35 minutes into this trip... which works out to 11 days and 695 minutes ... or put another way ... we're at 11.4826 days into a trip that runs 582 days, 23 hours and 21 minutes til embarkation at an assumed 5PM EST. That works out to 582.9729 days til they pull away the gangway in Port Canaveral.

So ... in 11.4826 days we've generated 2,115 posts. That works out to 184.1917 postings a day. That's like having generated 7.6746 posts every hour til now - or for the past 11+ days we've generated a new posting every 7 minutes and 49 seconds since just after 12 midnite last nite!

And extending this forward - if we were to maintain this average pace over the entire 582+ days... then we would end up with 107,378+ postings by 5PM on embarkation day!!! That would certainly make for an AMAZING Story on the DIS!

ITS SUNG BY THE PILLAGE PEOPLE

THAT is one of the funniest things I've EVER read on the DIS. Way to go.

ROFL! Young fry you egg! Yes that is an actual quote from MacBeth.

Excellent well, you are a fishmonger! (Hamlet)

Jack the Monkey

Correction: Jack the Undead Monkey

I must be the last one here . . .probably only an hour or 2 before the right coast takes over. Have a great Thursday!

Well about 15 pages, and one hour later, I'm finally all caught up, what a chatty group we were overnight. My brain is fried, and my day is just starting!!!

 

[captaincrash]

You're not kidding. I've already sent out for my Evelyn Woods refresher course!

And here it is...

I don't want to really think about how many pages I'll have to read to be fully caught up... but it's a lot!!!
