[kpgclark]

When do you all want to do the gift exchange? I thought it might be fun to do sign ups in September or so. What do you think?

kpgclark...can you email me or pm me the list of who is going to be coming to K of P (adults vs. kids/teens) and I will work on something....piglet33 are you in with me??? Reneé just can't refuse me since she has to put up with me on the October cruise!!! I would be more than willing to put in a $ amount for either each of us or as a family and maybe we could all put a question or trivia on a piece of paper and the person that answers it, gets something. I will look at the Disney Store over the weekend and also look around at Wal Mart, etc.

sandygirl...I have never been at a formal dis meet but I sort of make my own meets wherever we travel...it is nice to hook up with fellow dis'ers either at lunch or dinner. Mary Jo

I'm in. I just posted on the DIS Meets thread.

hmmmm $10 a piece and could probably cram 25 - 30 people in to watch you swan dive.....

Hey this could work well

Cheers,

Grumbo,
I think your offer to Mary Jo is commendable, but somewhat short sighted. Just think of the money making potential if you included EmmasGrammy, aka "The Legend of May Day Falls" The spectators for that event may cause the ship to capsize!!

Hello fellow vacation club members......
Did any one else see they posted the points for the reposioioning crusies!!!!!!!!

Was any one else besides us told we could not use points for this cruise??????




Sure would have saved some of us money to use our points!!!!!

Continuing our theme, remember, I only post 'em, not write 'em.


Chick Drinks-

Seven New York City bartenders were asked if they could nail a woman's personality based on what she drinks. Though interviewed separately, they concurred on almost all counts.

The results:

Drink: Beer
Personality: Casual, low-maintenance; down to earth.
Your Approach: Challenge her to a game of pool.

Drink: Blender Drinks
Personality: Flaky, annoying; a pain in the ***.
Your Approach: Avoid her, unless you want to be her cabin boy.

Drink: Mixed Drinks
Personality: Older, has picky taste; knows what she wants.
Your Approach: You won't have to approach her. She'll send YOU a drink.

Drink: Wine - (does not include white zinfandel, see below)
Personality: Conservative and classy, sophisticated.
Your Approach: Tell her you wish Reagan had had four more
years...Alzheimer's
and term limits be damned.

Drink: White Zin
Personality: Easy; thinks she is classy and sophisticated, actually has no
clue.
Your approach: Make her feel smarter than she is...


Drink: Shots
Personality: Hanging with frat-boy pals or looking to get drunk...and naked.
Your Approach: Easiest hit in the joint. Nothing to do but wait.

Hi WDSTK sorry about the points. Would have been nice to have a little extra for those bingo games.
Hey Grumbo we have a port hole on deck 7 maybe we could get a few people in and Mary Jo could wave as she swans by.
I have the dog sitting job this evening. So I am off to settle her for the night . Night all. Estelle

 

[Sarah'sMomfrom PA]

Grumbo...izzamac was right...just think of all of the money you could make if Marsha, EmmasGramma and myself dive off of your verrandah--now I know it wouldn't be like the cliff divers in Mexico but heck, we could make a show out of it and make you some US money in the process!!!

Marsha...pixie dust for you!! Mary Jo

Where did they post the vacation points??

 

[WDSTK]

There is a link in the July member clubhouse e-mail. I am sure its on the vacation club web site as well.

 

[DenverVal]

I'm new to DVC, just registered on the website, can't find it there, and haven't received the newsletter yet... 'course it's all academic at this point, but does it say how many points it takes for 2 adults in a category 8?

 

[WDSTK]

ok under the members only section, after you log in..... Go under view points charts..... look under 2005 The disney colection....Disney cruise line west coast sailings and click on it........it shows both repo cruises as well as all crusies from Ca.
Hope it helps. We are calling first thing monday to see if we can apply points

DENINE: I can't believe you said there wasn't alot of postings. I was SEVEN pages behind

IZZINMAC: Happy Belated Birthday

Planning on going to the King of Prussia Meet - can't wait!

I will read anything! Love mystery novels with a medical story - Patricia Cornwell, Robin Cook, etc. but love all mysteries. Also like SciFi - all time oldie but goodie "Stranger in a Strange Land". My daughter had me read a few of the Oprah suggestions & they were really good.

Off to an antique car show this afternoon. There are supposed to be over 700 cars! Hope you all are planning a fun-filled weekend. Toodles JEANNE Can you feel the love?

 

[Luv2Dream]

EmmasGrammy, you are tooooo funny. If we need an extra verandah, I'll be up on deck 8 and I'd be pleased to offer it up for diving. What a crazy bunch! Happy weekend everbody.

Hey WDSTK-- check todays' (Sat.) Morning Call section 1 page 3 last column on the right top of page. The day care is mentioned in relation to Mr. Bushs' visit to the valley.
DD took about 20 of the older children to the near by road that the presidents' motorcade was going to go by. The kids got to wave at him. DD says he saw the kids and waved right at them. Of course one of the kids announced to his Mom last night that he saw...George Washington! And the one quoted in the paper was far more impressed with the size of the buses. Very impressed..not.
Going shopping this afternoon. So no one do anything too crazy, until I get back so I can LOL at all the things you all come up with. Estelle

Been very busy at work so I haven't had much time for posting, but I just wanted to say hi.

[macbaby]

Well, I’m off for a week in the Western Caribbean on the Carnival Conquest. Hope ya’ll keep it to 10 or less pages a day! Even with my summer off, it’s hard to keep up with you!

 

[Denine]

Good Saturday!

Sorry Jeanne! Maybe you should stay home a little more. Then you won't have so much to catch up on.

Picking names for the cruise exchange in September sounds good. We will be a bit busy with the new house and moving, but we will be here.

We are having an open house tomorrow. Anyone intersted in a nice ranch home in Ohio?
