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

[pyramid2000]

ole, I'm back!!!

No, I didn't lock the keys in the car.

Got home to find our cable internet service was down again for about the 10th time today. Bad thing is, we have cable phone service as well, so when our cable goes out we lose the internet, TV and phone, which isn't always a bad thing I guess.

OK, I'm signing off for the night, but I'll be up bright and early tomorrow.

Night All

And I thought that was a local problem here. Guess it is Jersey wide?

Lisa?? What is that????

I love thepiratezone.net ! I'm sure we'll hear from others soon.

Do you think we can do a bulk order for lime green carpal tunnel wrist braces? I think I'm gonna need one of those by the time we sail!

So that's what our lime green bracelets were really for!

Darn time difference, it's only 9 pm here.

Do we have a west coaster who doesn't turn in before 9pm?!?!

Bite your tongue! I've been wearing a lovely black wrist brace since 2 weeks before Thanksgiving! And most likely will be wearing it for a good long time...unless the doc does what he threatened, and puts a cast on my wrist.
I fell, landed on my hand/wrist, and damaged the tendon just below my thumb. I would have been better off had I broken the wrist!

Ouch! I hope you get it off soon.

Question: Am I better off trying to book with an agent or on my own? Do they have a discount for repeat cruisers? AP holder? AAA members?

Thanks!

Thanks!

IMO its best to try to do it yourself and then you can always transfer it to a TA to get any perks they are offering. there are no discounts for repeat cruisers , AP holders or AAA members from DCL directly.

Morning
Hope I don't have that many posts to catch up with tonite. Hope everyone has a great day!

 

[tiggrbaby]

Thanks, Winnyis! I've been searching for this info and I couldn't find any answers! I will anxiously await the 31st and sit with the phone and computer!

I have to make this quick, cable going in and out this morning again. I started answering this post three times already, and each time I was cut offline.

That's what I thought, but I wasn't shore, get it, shore? I kill myself sometimes!!! For those that don't know, Cape May County is part of the Jersey Shore area.

Morning all

I've been to club 33...

... I had a cousin who was working at the park at the time in marketing and he got me in. And an old friend used to recently work AT the park - but just relocated to WDC to join the US patent office. He's a patent attorney who sort of short circuited in private practice - and took a huge step back to regain his health. Then we took a nice low stress job at DL... and now that he's better he rejoined the legal world at the US patent office. I'll email him for a friendly referral to see if we can arrange anything... or find out what the scoop is on how they run club 33 now-a days.

Now wait a minute... my cousin just got a private tour of the closed lots for the Disney animation studios - and they have a friend on the inside who arranged it. Plus I have folks I meet at our local playground who work as imagineers for Disney. Maybe I can ask them if I run into them again at the local park.

Either way - I'll have to "develope" an answer for you....

Give me a few weeks to get a serious and reliable answer - I'll bookmark this or PM you a memo so I can find this later. No guarantees on a reply... as I offerred my services to LBG - and my "bell" has not technically been rung yet. <chuckles>

I'll keep my fingers crossed

Lisa once we get to Jan 31st we should add all important info to the first page ...and did I sen you the banner logo ..the good file ...yours looks a little distorted ...

Now go to bed ..cause I am ...

ROFL! That is because I did an edge effect to get the feel of the Twilight Zone. :lmao. I do have the good file now. I think that we are all set as far as logos for this group.

OUCH! I suffer from carpel tunnel actually. It started with my first pregnancy. I couldn't stir batter or even eat without a lot of pain all the way up my arm to my neck. It came back with DD. I went to a chiropractor for severe backpain and also mentioned the carpel tunnel because my doctor had referred me to an orthopedic surgeon. He was able to help me. After 5 months of treatments I was able to let the kids hold my hand without my being in pain & I can pick them up and carry them around now...3 years later when they weigh a lot more than they use to. I can appreciate how difficult it is to be without full use of your hands.

Good Grief! A girl steps out for a couple of Margaritas and comes back five pages later into the Pirate Zone. Now even in my slightly less than with it state, I can safely say that is a Zone I will dare to enter!

Mathamatician Alert!!!

So lets' see... if we were to estimate what we needed for daily posting production to achieve 100,000 posts by embarkation day... lets keep it simple. First...

So - if our thread has been up for 7 days and 8 hours...
and produced 886 postings...
then this is a daily average of 120.8 posts ...
and in the 573 days remaining I can estimate our current pace will accumulate 69,580 postings.
EXACTLY what I predicted earlier.

However... in order to achieve 100,000 postings by embarkation -
then I predict that we have to average 173.62 postings daily.
That excludes making up for the short fall of 370 posts in the last 7 days!

Can we really maintain a posting pace that achieves 100,000 or more postings by embarkation?



​

OH NO!!!!! WE HAVE ANOTHER BECKA HERE!!!! Actually, that can happen. There were days when we passed 1000 posts in a day.

IMHO, Cape May County IS the NJ shore area!!

I'm pretty sure between the tequila and all of these posts I am going to have some pretty wild dreams tonight. Do you think Captain Jack will make an appearance? Makes me want to get some shuteye asap. SHH! Don't tell the DH.

Sorry I couldnt make your dreams , I was fast asleep
