Well done - I knew we were a smart bunch - but what are you doing up and around at this hour?

Allan

But what kind of bees make milk? I'm not too quick on the uptake.

Off to get the root canal...what a way to spend a Saturday. Then to Target to get another rolling duffle for the cruise. I stuff one for the one week so I figure I'll need a second. Also have to get a humidifier for the harp. Jeez...never thought I would buy something for an inanimate object.

The newsletters take about 4-6 hours to prepare.

Tracy

That's it?? I thought it would have taken so much longer to do, lol.


Really, though, you know we appreciate all your time and hard work that goes into making this such a great newsletter.

I'll let Allan tell you the answer to this - it's a little boy's joke!

Good luck with the root canal. I also had a rotten day - in the post this morning I got a tax demand for £5,000.00.

Also, you play the harp? Seriously? It's my very favourite musical instrument, it's such a beautiful sound. Do you think you can get it in your luggage for August 20th?????

AM BAAAAAAAAAACK!!!

Welcome aboard Lisa F!! Barbara will tell you all about being a sister in the fools sisterhood!! Thanks so much for posting the photo of the sideway cabin..My parents are cat 11 deck 5...My mom was happy to see the photo and now excited about it! she likes the set up better this way then the normal way.
BTW, i have 3 cats myself!!!

Thanks! I think I might have a touch of dyslexia because I read that as "I have a cat 3 myself!!!" I was hoping there would be a party at your place, I've never seen a suite in person before! But I'd say having 3 cats are almost as much fun.

Is there some scary initiation into the sisterhood? Do I have to eat something weird?

 

[winotracy]

Nothing scary Lisa, just come over to the WISH board (under community), and check it out.

Subject: Improper Use of JGE-Air Assets


Mark, as always we appreciate your innovative ideas and clever solutions. However, after internal discussions, we doubt that we can increase the size of our air fleet through this method.

Besides, we're pretty sure both planes were female.


Best Regards;

The Management

Wow! You are close! We are right in the Red Oaks Mill area. My DW grew up in Wappingers. How long have you been there?

As to flights...we were all set to book Southeast out of Stewart again, but now they are out of business. We flew with them for our last 2 cruises, it was nice coming into Stewart. This time, we are doing Vegas before the cruise and got a pretty good deal with JetBlue for that flight. Plus with 2 kids (DD's 11 and 7) and a long flight, we thought Direct TV was a good call!

We haven't booked the return flight yet, but we are leaning towards Southwest to Albany. It's easier than dealing with the NYC hassle, but it's a little longer ride home. Southwest's schedule just opened up to 8/3, so we need to wait a little longer.

Paul

We actually just bought this house last april after living in MD for a few years, Houston before that, we both went to school in Troy and I'm from Brooklyn, he's from Rockland. We absolutely LOVE it up here. A good friend of mine moved here first and after looking for houses in Westchester we came up here to get more for our money! I am an old house fiend (I'm getting my Master of Architecture and Historic Preservation) and we bought a 125 year old Queen Anne and couldn't be happier here.

But I don't know where Red Oaks Mill is, so obviously not long enough to know things like that!

I'm thinking we are going to Jet Blue too. Like I said, I am from the city and we have flown them before. DH's grandma lives about 15 minutes from JFK and would be delighted for us to spend the night before our flight there and I think it would be cheaper to leave our car at her place and take a cab to the airport.

Have you ever flown jet blue before? They are fabulous, so good that I will pay MORE to fly on them. The last time I flew with them there were a rash of delta cancellations and I was so glad that we had paid a little extra for jet blue. They really have their act together and I love the directtv. We flew them to SF (oakland I guess) and it really helps make the flight go more quickly. If I am flying somewhere jet blue goes, it's jet blue all the way for us!

Funny you should mention that. We've got some plans for you to join while onboard. It'll make that show FearFactor seem like a sissy game by comparison...Mark

OK, what kind of bees make milk.................................... boo bees!

John is sending me another graphic of the pin, with out the gray box. I know some people have already ordered, and I don't know when I will get the new art. I will have to change all existing products to the new art.

Sisters................the banner words (small print) become blurred when the PP is converted to JPEG and transfered to Cafepress. It must be due to the pixels etc. I will continue working on it, but we may need to figure out another way to create it.

Mark, Mark, Mark...............Don't scare her away, she just booked yesterday!


Lisa, as a member of the fairer and best sex, you are already part of the sisterhood. Making wisecracks about Mark and other members of the Looneyhood will increase your status.

Mark, LYMI!

OMG please tell me that you are not looking for judges for a "speedo wearing contest" for the men!!

This is too funny..........My Dad emailed this to me (no he is not cruising with us).

No, for some reason speedos were voted down by the men and they opted for a thong contest instead. I don't know why?

 

[Mom2Belle&PeterPan]

Wish we could fly to meet you, but we're going to see the Harlem Globetrotters play today!!!

Have fun kmiles! We'll be at DL/DCA twice next weekend "if" our rain subsides. Say "hello" to Mickey & Minnie for us!

Barbara (PS Sounds like a great chat last night! ***Robin, I hope you are healing and feeling better, what an ordeal for you. Hugs! I literally fell asleep and was snoring close to 7 p.m. PST last night. One of those sleepless weeks, so it caught up with me. Sure feel GREAT today! Everyone, have a fun weekend!)

Anyone going to Disney today and want to meet up?

 

[Scratch42]

Ok this is it!

I got the new computer up and running! Gotta go catch it!LOL

Seriously, gotta get used to the 17" screen! So fast that no longer have to twiddle thumbs waiting for next screen!

Thank Goodness Mark won't be showing those toes again! It would really look nasty now!

Now What to Do With the Old Computer!?

I got rid of all the work computers when we upgraded that way. I cleaned everything up first so no personal info was on it.

Too funny! DH is setting up our new computer as I type! We will now have a 19" screen

Our DD age 8 will get the old computer

We still have a computer in the garage from the last upgrade! We purchased from Dell (Intel inside) and they have a recycling program. We will finally be able to get rid of the computer that has been out in the garage for 4 years.

I hope you purchased a computer with Intel inside. DH works @ Intel and helps design all the new and upcoming computer chips.

Obviously, this is not our first or last computer purchase! After we recycle the old one we will have a laptop and 2 desk tops.

Enjoy the bigger screen!
