Oh mark, did you find anything informative about the Repo cruise??

 

[mark & sandra]

not so much you guys, MINE!! They thought I was serious. I asked them how they could have thought that?? There's hardly ever anything serious on this thread. They meant what was said on their thread, they took your warnings to heart, but I've think I've either changed their views or terribly worsened it!!...Mark

Key west was great, cold, wet, but great. I was infront of camera many times around 1:30, I felt like an idiot standing there looking into the camera not knowing if it was the right one.

 

[Grumbo]

Yep Mark I did a screen save.. Having never met I just knew it was you though. Holding the sign up was a good idea.

Cheers,
Grumbo

Hi Everyone,

I had a lot of fun chatting last night. It had a different rhythm to things and really allowed for a more personal and interactive feel. We talked about excursions, occupations, hobbies, families what what Mark was up to on board.

I encourage anyone to join the chat, even if you haven't posted much here. No doubt you will enjoy the playful atmosphere and learn something new which will enhance your cruise-waiting experience. Please do not hesitate to ask how to chat if you are new at it, there were many folks who were chatting online for their first time!

Thanks to everyone who helped make me feel welcome. I look forward to future chats and 'meeting' more of you!

Well Mark, did you explained to them about your Dr. jerkyll /Mr Hyde situation??
Don't worry Mark, on your next cruise, you don't need to explain yourself to us!! We know all about you!! :Wink:

Grumbo, I gonna surf some rauchy sites later for some of your photos. Who cares if these computers get a virus from those sites. If you don't hear from me again it means I destroyed their system looking for appropriate material for our thread!!...Mark

Melinda, I am hereby volunteering to teach class #1. I would love to get the chance not only to explain the secrets of toilet paper but also the right way to put the roll on the spindle.

I hope we don't get the 6 inches of snow mentioned by Mark. An inch or so would be fine. It's when the stuff goes over the shoes that I feel we have had too much.

I have trouble believing that anyone would think we really mean all the stuff we put on here. We know we are only kidding... right sisters!?

Melinda you will be pleased to know that the Christmas decorations with the exception of the wreath and the naked tree, are all taken down and put away.

Huh? Geez you saying that is NOT you?
I showed it to Jazz and we both agreed it had to be you...

Have fun Mark and stay off the damn computer. You paid big bucks to escape... Heck you're gonna be stuck with these nuts for 2 weeks later.

Cheers,
Grumbo

 

[Bmwdsny]

Estelle, Class #1 is yours!! You may want to be a clothpin with you in case...it tends to get stinko in there!!

You made my day today taking that THANG down!!

 

[Grumbo]

Yeah I took alot of the lights off of our house after your subtle reminder Melinda. In fact I took a photo an hour ago to show you.... You can see there are only a few left.

Cheers,
Grumbo

Grumbo, i don't care what you do in Canada!! You can put up Easter Eggs on your tree for all i care!! I got my own country to worry about and have to keep some those darn Americans in line. We got to uphold our rep!!

I'm not touching that response with a 10' pole (or a 3.3 meter one either )

I second everything RobinMarie said!

Did I miss something? What was said that was offensive to the May cruisers?

Mark went over there and insulted them again. It was awful. So embarrassing.

Mark has really become the "black sheep" of our cruise family. It's best not to associate with him.

Hi Kathy; Actually the thread being referred to is the one for the 1/15 Magic cruise that Mark's on now. He's been a prime "ringleader" in posting on the threads of any fools going on a cruise before now (ie, Melinda, Izzinmac). However, he has been a different person (very quiet, laid-back) on the 1/15 thread. A few of the "sisterhood" posted there jokingly "warning" them about Mark and some of the photos he posts here that were absent from their thread.

A few of the 1/15 cruisers freaked out about their thread being "hijacked" and whether they should even talk to any of us if we were on their cruise!

As Mark discovered this morning, many of them did NOT have a sense of humour, even though he HAD explained to them before what was going on.

Oh well, no explanations required on his NEXT cruise! We love him just the way he is!

Hey Melinda - You will also be happy that we took down all our Christmas decorations both inside and out and put it all in the basement. The bad thing is that Lenny slipped on one of the steps going to the basement and hurt his ankle. After arguing with me (why do men do that all the time?) about not wanting to go to the ER and then having his ankle be 3 times the size of the other and not being able to feel his toes, he finally gave in and I took him. It turned out to be a bad sprain so he has to wear an air cast for a month and be out of work for a week. Now it's my fault, because I told him to take the decorations down! I can't win.
