Hi -- haven't checked for two days and got behind. Back to the questions about the shots -- we had Hep A. Hep B is three shots over six months. Hep A is two shots over six months. I was told Hep A is specifically for travel -- Hep B is more for social diseases.
We also all got boosters on our Tetanus shots. Can't hurt.

Zinfandel is great for both DH and I.....Love white, not so up on the reds though.
As far as martinini's go...Cosmo's are my absolute favorite, had a chocolate one the other day a a local restaurant, it was awesome.
As you've been say on the Ship of Fools they better watch out!!!
Can't wait to get some Cabo Wabo tequilla....Ever had it? It's great.
Let the countdown continue!!!

Mark,
However did you get my picture on my fav hog, Bessie? I very rarely ride her into town! LOL
Well, I got my door magnet this past weekend (thank you Andy!) so I am ready to go!! I already have it hanging on the inside of my front door. My DH thinks I'm nuts, but who doesn't?
Warning to all newcomers...Run as fast as you can!!!

Hi Jan,
I used to be like your dh so we took mostly driving vacations, but now I fly. You will have fun on the Amtrak, we've only taken it for fun to San Diego - wait, I took it with my dd's class field trip from Union Station to the Santa Ana Zoo. It was lots of fun! I'll bet somebody here has been in the sleeper cars and will share their experiences.
Again, welcome and have fun planning with our Ship of Fools! You are going to have a magical time at WDW too, wait until you see it for the first time!!!
Barbara
Welcome aboard all 
Mostyn17 -- you were on the 9/4 opps 9/7 Magic too ? My sister & I were there too !
10 months to go !
My sister - Benita - now has a Dis name to - Dis Dog - right now she is lurking and reading some of the posts. I had her almost conviced she couldn't get onboard the ship without wearing a lime green Bringing Home the Magic T-Shirt <G> She does love the design -- but wants a different color.
Maybe we should ask DCL for our own check -in area ?

Okay everyone Jan will fit right in with this bunch of crazies.
Benita (Dis Dog) if you send a pm to Andy (Verandaman) he ccna give you an address for a company that makes the tee shirts to his design. And they come in different colors and styles. I think it is zazzle or something close to that. You might also find it some where in the first 100 or so pages of this thread.
Rain seems to have stopped but it is a nasty kind of grey day. Fall is supposed to be brilliant sunny days with leaves of different colors. So far we haven't gotten close.

A joke for our SENIOR members-
A old woman is in the bar of a cruise ship and she asks the bartender for a scotch and two drops of water.
As the bartender gives her a drink she says, "It's my birthday today and
I'm on the cruise to celebrate my 80th birthday."
The bartender says, "Well, since it's your birthday I'll buy you a drink.
In fact I'll take care of this one for you."
As the woman finishes her drink a woman to her right says, "I guess I should buy you a drink too."
The 80 year-old woman says, "Alright. Bartender I want a scotch and two drops of water."
"Alright" says the bartender.
As she finishes her drink, the man to her left says, "Since I'm the only one around you that hasn't bought you a drink I guess I might as well buy you one too."
The old woman says, "Alright, bartender I want a scotch and two drops of water."
"Comin' right up" the bartender says.
As he gives her the drink he says, "Ma'am I'm dying of curiosity. Why the scotch and only two drops of water?"
The woman replies, "Sonny, you learn that when you're my age, you can hold your liquor but you sure can't hold your water!"

A man left work one Friday afternoon. But - being payday -
instead of going home, he stayed out the entire weekend
partying with the boys and spending his entire week's wages.
When he finally appeared at home on Sunday night he was
confronted by a very angry wife and was barraged for
nearly two hours with a tirade befitting his actions.
Finally his wife stopped the nagging and simply said to
him, "How would you like it if you didn't see me for two
or three days?" To which he replied, "That would be fine
with me."
Monday went by and he didn't see his wife. Tuesday and
Wednesday came and went with the same results.
Come Thursday, the swelling went down just enough where
he could see her a little out of the corner of his left
eye.

Why we should all imbibe on our cruise.
A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest
buffalo, and when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest
and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This
natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because
the general speed and health of the whole is maintained or
even improved by the regular culling of the weakest members.
In much the same way, the human brain can operate only as
fast as the slowest brain cells through which the electrical
signals pass. Recent epidemiological studies have shown
that while excessive intake of alcohol kills off brain
cells, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first.
Thus, regular consumption of beer helps eliminate the weaker
cells, constantly making the brain a faster and more
efficient machine.
The result of this in-depth study verifies and validates the
causal link between all-weekend parties and job related
performance. It also explains why, after a few short years
of leaving university and getting married, most professionals
cannot keep up with the performance of the new graduates.
Only those few that stick to the strict regimen of voracious
alcoholic consumption can maintain the intellectual levels
that they achieved during their university years.
So, this is a call to arms. As our country is losing its
technological edge we should not shudder in our homes. Get
back into the bars! Quaff that pint! Your company and
country need you to be at your peak, and you shouldn't
deny yourself the career that you could have. Take life by
the bottle and be all that you can be.

For those of us who plan on drinking a "little" on our cruise, here's a handy list for you to rate your upcoming hangover.
1 star hangover (*)
No pain. No real feeling of illness. Your sleep last night
was a mere disco nap which is giving you a whole lot of
misplaced energy. Be glad that you are able to function
relatively well. However, you are still parched. You can
drink 10 sodas and still feel this way. You are craving
a steak bomber and a side of gravy fries.
2 star hangover (**)
No pain, but something is definitely amiss. You may look
okay but you have mental capacity of a staple gun. The
coffee you chug is only irritating your rumbling gut,
which is craving a rootie tootie fresh and fruity pancake
breakfast from IHOP. Last night has wreaked havoc on your
bowels.
3 star hangover (***)
Slight headache. Stomach feels crappy. You are definitely
not productive. Anytime a girl walks by you gag because
her perfume reminds you of the random gin shots you did
with your alcoholic friends after the bouncer 86'd you at
1:45 a.m. Life would be better right now if you were in
your bed with a dozen donuts and a meatball sub watching
the E! fashion awards. You've had 4 cups of coffee, a
gallon of water, 3 Snapples and a liter of diet coke --
yet you haven't peed once.
4 star hangover (****)
Life sucks. Your head is throbbing and you can't speak too
quickly or else you might puke. Your boss has already
lambasted you for being late and has given you a lecture
for reeking of booze. You wore nice clothes, but that
can't hide the fact that you missed an oh-so crucial spot
shaving, (girls, it looks like you put your make-up on
while riding the bumper cars). Your eyes look like one
big vein and your hair style makes you look like a reject
from the class picture of Revere High, '76.
5 star hangover (*****) AKA "Dante's 4th Circle of Heck."
You have a second heartbeat in your head which is actually
annoying the employee who sits in the next cube. Vodka
vapor is seeping out of every pore and making you dizzy.
You still have toothpaste crust in the corners of your
mouth from brushing your teeth. Your body has lost the
ability to generate saliva, so your tongue is suffocating
you. Death seems pretty good right now. You definitely
don't remember who you were with, where you were, what
you drank, and why there is a stranger still sleeping in
your bed at your house.
6 star hangover (******) otherwise known as the "Infinite Nutsmacker"
You wake up on your bathroom floor. For about 2 seconds
you look at the ceiling, wondering if the cool refreshing
feeling on your cheek is the bathroom tile or your puke
from 5 hours ago. It is amazing how your roommate was as
drunk as you, but somehow manages to get up before you
the next morning....You try to lift your head. Not an
option. It is when you turn your head too quickly only
to smell the funk of 13 packs of cigarettes in your hair,
and suddenly you realize you were smoking, but not ultra
lights...some fool handed you Marlboro reds, and you
smoked them like it was your second full time job. You
look in the mirror only to see remnants of the stamp
"Ready to Rock" faintly atop your forehead...... that
explains the stamp on the back of your hand that has
magically appeared on your forehead by alcoholic osmosis.
You have to be to work in t-minus 14 minutes and 32
seconds and the only thing you can think of wearing is
your "hello kitty" pajamas and your slippers.

Mark LOL at the first two and grinned at the third.
Sorry Tracey I forgot the idex..you know over the hill and not imbibing enough alcohol. Or was it under the hill... and imbibing too much.
Youngest DD came home tonight with some Schmiernof Ice V. Have to try it later and see if I like it. DD says they should have it on the boat.
: You'll notice I can't even spell the companys' name right. Must be those slow brain cells.

Paul,
We have something better than Cabo Wabo. Purchased in Cozumel
Tierra Reposado Tequila (100% Agave)
Now THAT is Tequila!
I had a patient come in yesterday that brought me a present! He had gone to Disneyland Paris in May and brought me back some brochures and a Mickey Pin Trader pin that says Disneyland Paris. Wasn't that sweet!
Doesn't take much to make me happy!
