August 20, 2005 - L.A. to Port Canaveral - Eastbound Repo Cruise - The SHIP OF FOOLS Part 2

[Mom2Belle&PeterPan]

Melinda, you dug yourself into a hole on this one, lol! Really, I totally understand...this board is my entertainment and fun for the day most days. We'll welcome your dh, guess I should encourage my dh to join in too...he's just like the rest of them.

OK, back to real work. Hope you are feeling better Melinda, and Happy Saturday to all!

PS I really think Mark should be voted in as an equal partner with JGE, so that would make it JGME - Why? He's really been carrying the load of the entertainment of the thread lately - lots of lol's from me from his many stories! Should we take a vote?!)

I agree....I think Mark wanted that in the first place but Grumbo and Jazzman wouldn't let him....
You got my vote....

Aww, too bad i don't have a picture of Mark to put on my signature to vote for him!! LOL!!! I guess to some people, it would be better than George!!

Ummm, Melinda, I hate to mention this, but I don't want to see Mark either. Just kidding, Mark. I'm sure you look more normal than you act?

Izzinmac, I'll deal with PMS when I have to, but right now I need help getting through DD's puberty. I believe it's Melinda who refers to her DD as Tinkerbell. That's what we call our little darling also. Since you're so accustomed to girls, maybe we could send you a couple of extras?

That is so true!! I love hanging around with my sis in law!!! SHHH!!!(that is my own secret!)

Not any more, especially since your DH is now here!!

Mark thanks for the link...will keep me out of trouble around here for a little while.

As for lurking, I may hold the record, or so DH says. Hey, it's entertaining and keeps me from driving everyone else crazy when all I want to talk about is the upcoming cruise. Since we have no exciting travel plans between now and then, this has to be a good thing.

Melinda, I would love to hear about your experience at WDW at Thanksgiving, since we are planning to do the same thing next year. We'll be able to manage an eleven day vacation with our DDs only missing 4 days of school. Since they'll have missed a week at the beginning of the year, and we just can't put off our trip "home" any longer without losing our points, I think that'll work.

I have some Peppermints as well as some Imperial mints I'd be willing to trade. I'm not familiar with your Denver or Philly mints but is one filled with Coors, and the other got cheese steak on it?

thanks for the offer, and I hope nothing Coors gets on our state quarter! Seen enough of him in political ads lately. BTW, you have some pretty interesting quarters too, kept some that I got when I visited last. The Canadian Rockies are beautiful!

Melinda and Renee, I have the following Denver mint quarters, and will look for whatever you need:
Arkansas - 6
Connecticut - 1
Delaware - 2
Florida - 1
Georgia - 2
Illinois - 1
Indiana - 1 (and one P mint)
Maine - 1
Maryland - 1
Michigan - 2
Missouri - 2
New Hampshire - 2
New Jersey - 2 (and one P mint)
North Carolina - 2
Rhode Island - 1
South Carolina - 1
Texas - 1
Virginia - 1

Renee - you have all but two that I need--would love to trade!

I'm looking for Arkansas Florida, Maine, Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi, and Texas. I also need Iowa (sorry I don't have any extras from Denver yet but I'll keep looking) and Wisconsin whenever it comes out. PM me!

I get a roll of quarters every time we go to Florida. Seems to be a 50-50 mix of D and P, though.

Mark, too much time on your hands?????

So I finished working early today and I guess I was a little bored. Now boredom is'nt an easy thing to contain when you have a, lets say, overactive imagination. I decided to get the street signs that were removed across the street from my house, due to new contruction and transplant "NO PARKING" signs in front of my house. When Sandy and my sister came home from work they all but freaked out. They moved their cars around the corner and were screaming about contacting the Village Hall first thing Monday morning!! Well it's Saturday night and I've yet to tell them it's a hoax!! I don't know if I can wait till Sunday night, but I'm gonna give it a try. Oh wait, I'm feeling bored again!!...Mark

I AM CANADIAN!!!!!

I loved the list! A number of them were pretty true, though ... The Rant, The Barenaked Ladies interplay (We'll just eat MORE Kraft Dinner and buy really expensive ketchup - Dijon Ketchup!) Skinna-ma-rink, (which my DD promptly started doing!) and the milk bags with the corner-clipper! You mean you don't have bag milk?????

Oh, yeah - I also read it thoroughly!

Thanks so much, Barbara! This looks like an awesome website for DL! I'll have a great time reading it all! (Of course, I can't let it cut into my DIS time, EH?)

Midnight! Well you're staying long past Thanksgiving, and the following week should be wonderful! I am so envious! Wish we could go too! Have a great time and in the meantime I will live vicariously through you!
