Had router problems this morning. I know it makes sense and if it were my business decision to make I'd do the same thing becuase labor costs in India are so much lower but Good Lawd!! When I'm just waking up in the morning and I'm trying to understand why i can't get on to DIS and I haven't had coffee 
, I just need someone that speaks English with an American accent. Yeah, I know it's not politically correct, but tough. I'm going to send Achmed the Dead Terrorist after them! Or Walter... yeah, definitely send Walter!!!
Colleen - will add you to the hyperlist for your Sun 8:30P Palo next time I put it on here. I'm trying not to do that too often so folks don't hurt their wrist scrolling past it
Deck walking... we never discussed a time yet. I think we'd talked about doing it in the mornings (before we start drinking ... okay, before I start drinking a lot
) so that we wouldn't look like a bunch of Cap'n Jack Sparrows staggering around the deck. But what time is too early/too late. You guys that have cruised before... I don't remember when breakfast things are or when activities start. Would 9 be too early? Too late? Throw out some input on that time and we can narrow it down a bit.
Pictures --> To avoid confusion, I propose the following (and now that I'm reading this over again I realize how despotic it makes me sound, but no matter... no one ever confused me with a nice person ). We'll do one group picture at the DisMeet on Sunday. Not Shutters, but we'll hijack a crew member to take a picture with a couple of folks cameras and I'll get everyone to send them to me after the cruise and that way everyone can get a copy. How's that sound?
Also, I'd love to have a picture of everyone (or as near to everyone as we can get) on formal night and on pirate night. Maybe on pirate night we could meet in the lobby 15 minutes before the Pirates In the Caribbean Party is supposed to start? Would that work (need previous cruisers opinions here). But formal night will be more difficult becuase of the different dinner seatings. Maybe we should do one photo of early seating folks and one of later seating folks? I want to catch the kids before they have a chance to spill anythign on their clothes (did I say that out loud?
) What do you guys think of that plan? If that works, it could be another meet in the lobby 15 minutes prior to the first early seating and meet in the lobby 15 minutes prior to the first late seating. C'mon you Castaway Club members... give me some feedback as to whether or not that will work.
Shirts --> Joan, I'd forgotten that you purchased the shirts. Okay, how about we all make/wear SOH shirts on Sunday - Key West day. Would that work? Or does everyone think that's a lame idea and not want to do it? Just let me know. You won't hurt my feelings.... much... <sob>. Nah... just kidding. Seriously, just let me know if you want to pursue the idea or not. Whether you do it or not, I'm going to still make and wear a SOH shirt (right now I'm thinking maybe the picture on either the front or the back of the shirt and a disgreen mickey head on the "pocket" area with my name on my shirt and DH's name on his shirt and DS's names on their shirts). If I get a chance to make a graphic of my idea I will and I'll post a link to it. I'm gonna make it and wear it and ask all of you to sign it (maybe not while I'm wearing it )
Ahhhhh..... Lilo... I tried to concentrate on your message. I really did. But there's ol' wicked Jack again with that rougish grin and .... ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Okay, back to reality. I have your photo, Lilo, and it's posted... you should have the link by now. Let me know if you don't. Also, I'll add your massage to the hyperlist next time I print it (see above about painful wrists )
Paul and Dave also sent me pictures so y'all go out and check out what they look like. Guys, if you want to send more that's fine too. Anyone that wants to send pictures and get the link send 'em on. Hypermommy@comcast.net. Put "Showers of Happiness" in the subject line so I don't lose the email. Remember to tell me your board name. Let me know who the folks in the picture are. You know the drill by now. Oh, and you know the sense of humor
I have so check your picture as soon as you can after you get the link so that if I said anything in the description that offends anyone or hurts anyones feelings you can let me know so I can change it.
Regarding the shuttle launch --> I sure hope it's delayed a day or two becuase I'd LOVE to see it take off live. We did a trip with the Scouts where we got to go out and drive by the launch platform and stuff (as well as sleep under a Saturn V rocket -- that was a coooool trip! ). I was astounded at the size of everything. It'd be really, really cool to see it live. Even watching it on Arial view would be okay but not the same, ya know?
Dave, thanks for the offer of Valium in case I freak out... but I think rum and vodka and beer and wine will probably do the trick. I think I'd be scared to throw valium into the mix
Jeff, no, unfortunately not near Daytona. We're in Tallahassee. It's pretty much South Georgia here... they just drew the boundry line wrong
But have a great time on your trip and get some pictures to send to me for the website.
Okay, I guess that's it for now. (I heard that ... "boy, that's enough!") I'm going to go wake up the kids and get moving out to work. Catch you guys later on.

, DD & I will be wearing pirate tee's & DH has no idea what he is doing. 
But it's so hard to help the babies understand why they can't go. Hope you'll be feeling better soon.
