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

Happy Birthday Amanda! :thewave:
Oh to be 30 again!!! Gee...I'm old enough to be your mother!

Thank you all for your condolences. I am leaving for Boston 9:30 PM...if it's not cancelled. My mom's flight for 12:30 today was cancelled by 8AM today!! And not a flake was in the sky...honestly no reason why they couldn't fly at 12:30.

Welcome aboard DebM...don't try to read it all...skim or speed read!

Happy Birthday Amanda !!!!

Welcome to the newbies...don't worry you won't be new long....we love to have you just jump right in. The more the merrier is our motto.

I believe someone asked about a priest being on the Magic during our cruise. I'm not sure anyone answered her. I don't know the answer myself. Does anyone?

It just started snowing here....8:15pm They are saying about a foot of snow. I hope for no school tomorrow. Then I won't go into work.

Marsha, I'm e-mailing you too, but I need your help, quick (before Bob whines any more). I need you to e-mail the lanyard picture. I can't download it properly. Thanks! Otherwise, half of it is black.

Bob, get after Marsha if you want the newsletter faster. I'm missing American Idol, dinner and probably chat, just for you

Please share with me a range of emotions from relief to elation to exhaustion (okay that's not an emotion but you get the point) as I proudly announce that FINALLY:

I HAVE READ THE ENTIRE THREAD!!!

I am just so excited to have achieved this, even though I now feel like the Ship of Fools Obsessive/Compulsive Poster Child.

I had originally stopped posting/reading on Page 38 back on 5-14-04. I then started back up as a lurker on 1-24-05 on the last page as of then: Page 600! I have stayed current with the thread from that point, as well as reading forward from Page 38.

On 1-28-05 I was up to Page 140 and decided to "delurk" (Page 629) and join in the chaos (said lovingly, of course). As of today, I have read every post on every single one of the 809 pages to date!

I know that with such a rare accomplishment I join an elite group of Fools who have completed this task. Is there an award for this? Maybe a special JGE certificate or something? Anything?!?

It's on the way in a moment

Leave me alone Bob, you old meanie!

Wow, Nancy, I have been here from the start and haven't read it all.

Please let me know if you have any problems. I did this a little different this time.

Tracy,

Works for me. Actually this one is better than the last way you did it.

Thanks,

Reneé

Outstanding newsletter Tracy!

Just wanted to let everyone know that the "Printable Cruisers List" mentioned in the newsletter is already located on the other site. It's in PDF format and can easily be downloaded and printed. The only drawback is that we need more people to list on it!

Night all!

 

[DenverVal]

Wonderful Tracy, thanks so much! I had no problems accessing or downloading it, now I'm going to curl up on the couch and read it!

 

[dan and scott]

GREAT newsletter Tracy!

 

[jweiss]

Those of you who ordered the free stuff from chadwicks .com.... did you get an order confirmation??? I didn't get any thing and am wondering if my order went thru????

 

[jweiss]

Are the countdowns gonna come back?????

 

[mark & sandra]

No, you should go to edit my signature section and delete it, unless you like the words down there. BTW there are a few people over in chat now...mark

 

[winotracy]

I got confirmations Jennifer.

 

[RobinMarie]

I HAVE READ THE ENTIRE THREAD!!!

I don't know of any rewards, but wanted to do a cheer in your name!

Nancy Nancy she's our gal
If she can't read it all, nobody shall!

Those of you who ordered the free stuff from chadwicks .com.... did you get an order confirmation??? I didn't get any thing and am wondering if my order went thru????

I received last wednesday's order yesterday, never received a shipment confirmation.

 

[mickeyfan1]

Chadwicks, got email confirm of the orders, but they don't ususally confirm shipping.

JWeiss, the countdowns are no longer allowed, there was a message from Alex early last week when they were disabled.

About 4 inches of fluffy white snow so far this morning and its still coming down. Did I mention I am sick of this? A good friend is flying into Boston today from Atlanta. Guess I should check out the flight delays!

Have fun kids, the newsletter is printing and I am going to be lazy today.

Tracy--

Thanks SO much for the very special gift you sent! The package arrived today and was waiting for me in the foyer when I walked in the door from work. It's very cool and I can't wait to use it for Saturday's chat!

We've actually looked at several of those shakers before but never purchased one. Can't wait to give it a try!!!

Thanks again!

Glad you liked it! Can you see why I thought of you two? Ok, actually I was just thinking of you, but I know you're roomie would be jealous, so I got two. Thanks for everything you've done for all of us Fools! And me too!

Tracy

Congratulations Nancy on a job well done !!! The only prize is our knowledge of your total commitment and dedication to our cruise and all it's goings-on. A true accomplishment in itself. As a fellow "full-reader", you have my utmost respect.
