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

[kpgclark]

I have some time on my hands right now. Here's one for Marsha's mother:

An old lady was standing at the railing of the cruise ship holding her hat on tightly so that it would not blow off in the wind.

A gentleman approached her and said: "Pardon me, madam. I do not intend to be forward, but did you
know that your dress is blowing up in this high wind?"

"Yes, I know," said the lady, "I need both hands to hold onto this hat."

"But, madam, you must know that your privates are exposed!" said the gentleman in earnest.

The woman looked down, then back up at the man and replied, "Sir, anything you see down there is 85 years old. I just bought this hat yesterday!"

That's okay, I "lost it" about 100 pages ago

Rumor has it that during the next drydock the Magic will be fitted with new IT capabilities. They've even found a way to make it more accessible during "down" time.

[Knock, knock, are you done in there YET ?!?!, I really gotta go]

Misssaugamom, I used to cut out Donny's picture from Tiger Beat as well ! I definitely know how old you are ! I had the pleasure of seeing him in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. He was awesome.

These pictures are just so funny. Where in the world do you get these ? They are priceless.

 

[Scratch42]

They are begining to suspect that I have something Disney Planned!LOL That's the only time I'm this Hysterical!



No Not Me!

Speaking of Donny, my girlfriends brother sat next to him on the Subway but the Dumb*** never thought to get his autograph! She nearly killed him for not getting it!

I was a Bobby Sherman Fan!

How about Shawn Cassidy of the Hardy Boys? Now he was my favorite.

Luv2Dream- Try searching on the net using anything followed by humor photos,(travel humor photos, cruise humor photos, work humor photos).

Is this the Donny you remember??

 

[ehtpnt]

I remember when my two DD considered Donny and the rest of them the cutest thing since time began.

Did anyone else notice that Grumbo and Jazzman have the same office chairs? LOL

Jason- a friend sent you a picture of the two of us. Just so you know it is official and I did okay it. Thanks again for the efforts put into doing the list.

You too Jazzman for the numbers and the lists of whos who and where.

Have to dog tonight so I'm off to put her out in the rain. Have to go along and hold a paw. Hates rain. Gets this look on her face like, "you're the human turn it off." Talk to you all tomorrow. Estelle

I surrender! Trying to read this whole thread will take me until the cruise Started reading backwards - What fun!

Thanks for all the welcomes - And hey to all the other Coloradians - DenverVal, JiminyC_Fan, Barb! I think I read a Colorado meet? Let me know when and where!


Sounds like this cruise is going to be a blast!

 

[mark & sandra]

Sorry BetsyAnn- No, No, NO!!! You must read the whole thread!! Jazzman will be giving a test on Friday.

Can you imagine how active this thread is gonna be as we get closer to sailing when everyone will be excited?

I think we should have a pool. How many Posts and/or Views by sailing date. I'll buy the person closest 1 regular size drink. ( feel free to offer more rewards).

Maybe a side pool for how many posts Verandah Man has by himself.


At our current rate of about 1500+ a month, we could have over 24,000 posts and over 500,000 views.

Imagine the amount of trip reports we'll be posting too.

 

[DenverVal]

Hey, Betsy Ann--I threw the hat in the ring...who wants to plan it??!! We're so spread out, from Colorado Springs to Ft Collins! There are a few more of us Coloradoans out there too--Two Foxes and dencord7 come to mind, and CoMickey who's on the westbound cruise.

 

[DenverVal]

After considerable consideration, I have decided that a thimbleful of zinfandel is insufficient reward for all concerned, so I am offering up these two bottles to be shared and shared alike...

 

[mark & sandra]

DenverVal- I sure hope that's the largest shot glass I've ever seen...Mark

UH UH!! DAVID Cassidy was the hotty of THAT family!!
And my room was PLASTERED with Donny Osmond pictures (does this make me officially old now???) ... I look at my daughter's room (Orlando Bloom everywhere) and just shake my head

 

[Scratch42]

You can tell the difference in our tastes ~

She is Orlando Bloom!

I am Johnny Depp all the Way!

Talking about David Cassidy, now that was one Hot Babe! That was the very first concert that I got to go to! This will tell you how times have changed! My mother waited outside the venue while I went inside by myself!

DenverVal ~ That is so generous of You!NOT!LOL

Mark ~ BTW, where are the pics of David, Shawn and Bobby?

Panama Factoid:

The men who worked more than two years on the project were given medals made from scrap metal from French Artillary. They were numbered and had the face of Roosevelt on the medallion.
