86'd From the Poly? No worries-bring us Margarita's & Wiener Salad! A TFW Meet Aug 08

[Lauralee131]

Darn! I need a dancing wiener smilie!!

This was as close as I could get for ya this early in the AM!!

OK, I'm officially freaked out. I just had a lady stop me while I was shopping in Target to tell me that she was a lurker on the DIS and read all of my TRs. She was excited to meet me. She was really nice and wanted to get together sometime to talk Disney. This is the 1st time that this has happened to me outside of WDW.

I don't know how to feel right now...

Oh no...you know she's reading this and is getting mad that you're freaked out...

Well, I'm sure she's really nice though. And hey - you just had your 15 minutes of fame, my friend!

Nice wiener, LL! Yeah, I thought of that, but if she *is* reading all of my posts, then I guess I *do* have something to worry about, right? So, how's the fall trip planning coming along? Did you get your grand villa yet?

OK, that's it. I need a WIENER/WEINER clarification. I keep looking at that word and wonder which way is the right way to spell it. So, I finally looked it up on Dictionary.com...

weiner, AR (city, FIPS 73940) Location: 35.61916 N, 90.90204 W
Population (1990): 655 (319 housing units)
Area: 2.6 sq km (land), 0.0 sq km (water)
Zip code(s): 72479

wiener
1904, shortening of wienerwurst (1889), from Ger. Wiener "of Vienna" (from Wien "Vienna," from L. Vindo-bona, from Gaulish vindo-, from Celt. vindo- "white;" cf. O.Ir. find, Welsh gwyn "white;" see Gwendolyn) + Wurst "sausage."

So, I guess W-I-E-N-E-R is it.

Back when conversations first began about my love for wiener salad and a possible Wienerfest, T called me on my misspelling of "weiner." Somehow it just feels more German with the i and e switched.

How Many Days Till Wienerfest??

First, you all do me proud. SO many good answers! But only one wins the prize...

Yes, but, in the world of V's fuzzy math, you don't count this month or the month of August....So, I'm going with 63. With the removal of Memorial Day, 4th of July and Leo's birthday, no weekends, not today, and not April or August. How'd I do?

DING-DING-DING-DING!!!!! The actual answer is 64 (we don't count the month we're in or the month of the event, no Memorial Day, no Independence Day, but I will count Leo's Bday since I'll be working) So sharkB8 was as close as anyone could get without going over!!!

BUT, if you wnat to see something even fuzzier... I'll be on vacation July 21-29. So, for me, it's only 57 fuzzy days away.... which is less than 2 months (assuming 30 days per month.)

This was as close as I could get for ya this early in the AM!!

So close, so close and yet so far...(Extra points for the name of the song )

Oooh...since you are taking your vacation days off can I deduct my weekend at the beach June 20th - 24th?

I seem to be singing it in my head, but I'm stumped!

Well, Janet, I didn't think it was possible, but now I've got that song going through my head. Funny thing is, I think I only know the words as I thought they were when I was a kid Something about "though I never laid an egg on you" just doesn't seem right

Don't feel bad Kate, you know how long it took me to figure out Pink Floyd wasn't singing about Dukes of Hazzard in the classroom, but dark sarcasm in the classroom.

I know, you Brit's really don't like the fact that we celebrate Independance Day, right

Independant from whom? No honestly we don't give a damn here!

[Disneyland_Mama]

Nice wiener, LL!

OMG! If that isn't tag worthy, I don't know what is!!!

 

[sorul82?]

Independant from whom? No honestly we don't give a damn here!

Ouch!

 

[DisneyJo]

Ouch!

I wasn't being nasty, I meant it in a no-one here ever thinks or comments on it

 

[sorul82?]

I know you weren't! Do you even have a mean bone in your body?
