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

[kmiles]

Good morning fellow Fools!

Chat, as alwasy, was interesting, to say the least.

Welcome JoMouse! Glad to see you registered and posting! Don't forget that we have other places to see and do pertaining to this cruise too. I'm sure your wonderful woman Val has shown them to you by now. And, we won't have you going back to your lurking habits! We want you to have at least 300 posts by this coming Friday! And last but not least, great job on the sig!

Thanks, Pin Man Dan. I like that name. Has a certain ring to it.

That is 318 pins in less than a week! The May repo cruise has about 90 days left and has only 100 pins or so sold!

Pin Man Dan (my new name from my bud Mark!-I know the sisterhood is jealous!)

No green eyed monster here Pin Man Dan! The May repo posted this morning they are up over 200. Dan, do you want me to e-mail everyone on the newsletter list a special update with the pin info? The newsletter came out with only questions of whether or not there was interest. Or can you wait until March?

 

[kmiles]

Wonderful job Lynn.

And let's not forget you played no small part in this accomplishment!

Tracy-

That would be awesome-but Monday Susan should ahve the price quote so maybe we should wait until then. Is that cool?

Dan,

Just let me know what to send and when. And no more thong talk, ok?

I am proud that at least one of the Looneyheads is taking it upon himself to find an appropriate wine for the tasting without taking the easy way out and making me do all the work

Lynn, what a great thing to do for your friends.

Jomouse, love the pirate pin in your signature, too.

Gotta make some superbowl food. DH wants 3 bean dip, I have no idea what that is, and he didn't bring home anything that even looked like that from the grocery store yesterday. Guess I better find a few recipes and make something up!

Kmiles, have you seen the deck plan map? It has some of the cruisers rooms coloured in, but no names, so I will be guessing as you yours...................hmmmmmm.

Good morning Marsha,

I got my camcorder out today and it is already! I think we should use mark as the Director! I just want to be cameraman!

Dan

 

[mickeyfan1]

Great! Make sure the batteries are charged!

Yes I did. Some pricy stuff there, but it looks pretty good. Gonna see if I can find any locally. (The Sangiovese sounds very good and not too pricy like the Cab). You can't get it shipped to you in OH. I was also going to see local wineries near your home.

But I can get it shipped to WI and then you can take it! Duh

Interesting chat, last night!!

 

[dan and scott]

I have enlisted the help of our neighbor! She loves wine and has been trying to get us drunk for the 8 years we have lived here-so we will have a mini wine tasting with her soon and choose our wine! She seems to think that

Couple of questions......

(1) DH is now working on a design for the May repo folks ... I get the impression they like our design and just want to tweak it a bit (BHTM changes to "Kingdom to Kingdom" and of course Eastbound becomes Westbound and the dates change) ... how do you guys feel about their pin looking a lot like ours? Would you prefer their pin be totally unique?

(2) for you lanyard wearing types, would you like a lanyard MEDALLION (for the end of your lanyard) that looks just like the pin we've designed??? It would be approximately the same size (2 inches across). It would cost slightly more but not gobs & gobs more.

--- do you think a 2" medaillion is big enough? If not what size??

As a point of reference, this Stitch lanyard medalllion is 2.5 inches tall and about 2 inches wide.

I don't think the medallion would come with a clip --- so the clip would either have to already be on the lanyard --- or we'd have to figure something out.

Does anyone know if the May cruisers know how many formal nights or anything about entertainment or really any other particulars that would be specific to the Repo cruise?
