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

[EmmasGrammy]

You guys have way too much time on your hands!!!


How do you come up with this "stuff"? WHY do you come up with this "stuff"?

You gave me my chuckle for the day!!!

I am considering the REAS package you are offering, but the swimming is a no go!!

Thanks for the HoJo info...especially the King Bed rooms in Bldg 1. We really want to stay in one of the older courtyard rooms (2 story bldgs), since that is what we used to enjoy. Do you know off hand how they identify them. Was probably going to book on line when they become available and noticed some rooms designated "no attractions view - pool view" or "no attractions view- garden view" I'm assuming those are in the courtyard bldgs.

I don't really know. We booked online too. Got a great rate of $59 per night where everywhere else it was $79. I think that was the first clue. It specifically said King rooms though for the cheap price. I'd check HoJos website and see how they describe the rooms. If you want to know good building numbers, let me know and I'll check my map when I get home (I save everything!). Actually now that I think of it, the map is on the website too. Good luck.

I feel these new excursions will be a huge hit..
You guys will be the first to see our new logo also.
Believe me no expense will be spent to show you a good time!!!

Cheers,
Grumbo

Grumbo,
You guys need better graphics.

First a Smurf brain, and now a breast implant gone wild!!!

 

[Grumbo]

Hey izzinmac give us time. Once the U.S. dollars start rolling in we'll be using high quality stuff we've stolen from other sites

Btw there is a bit of a difference of opinion on the acceptance of CTC money. I WILL accept it... Saving for the mosquito magnet so could be useful

Cheers,
Grumbo

Annabelle Inn & Suites
Has anyone stayed here? I heard some good things from a couple of Travel Agents and AAA gives it three stars.

 

[mark & sandra]

Hey Grumbo- Will JGE offer any spa services?? I've been looking into getting one of those pedicures thingys. Could you possibly quote me a price in US funds?

Oh, here a pic to base your price on.

 

[Jazzman]

Mark - we're looking into it but no firm plans as of yet. But yeah, we can probably get those kind of results.

What did the 'before' picture look like?

[mark & sandra]

I hear transportation to the port will be prompt and reliable in true JGE fashion.

For an extra charge we can travel to the pier aboard the JGE deluxe limo with hottub.

Mark

ps. Notice how Jazzman demostrates the huge amount of leg room available in the hottub. One more thing folks, that not water, Grumbo found a way to transport the Zinfandel to the ship.

OK....I am almost afraid to ask this but I will bite...what is Canadian tire money??? Like I said, with this bunch, I am almost afraid of the answer!!

Marsha...good luck on the house....have a glass of bubbly for me!! Mary Jo

 

[Sarah'sMomfrom PA]

Hey Mark...I think you should think about Lamisil instead of the spa treatment by Grumbo...or as my daughter would say...that picture was just NASTY!!!

 

[Grumbo]

OK Canadian tire money or "Crappy tire money" is given at the Canadian Tire Corporation stores in Canada when you pay cash for items. It used to be 5% and has slowly been reduced over the years. You get it if you buy gasoline at their gas bars also.
It is made by the Canadian Bank note company is of the same quality as bank notes.
They come in 3 cent up to $5.00's now I think (I use credit cards so get very little of it anymore).
Number of charitable organizations try to collect it as donations as they can get cash for it.
Lots of stories of Canadians going to Mexico or other foreign places like Pittsburgh or New Jersey and passing it off as real Canadian money. Don't know how true that is but makes for a great story
Here is a photo of some of it.

If anyone is REALLY interested here is the story of it. About a 3 minute read with lots of photos. http://www2.canadiantire.ca/CTenglish/ctmoney.html

Mary Jo--

I [finally] mailed out your picture this afternoon! Sorry it took me sooooooo long!

It's on its way to your house from Clearwater, FL!

 

[Sarah'sMomfrom PA]

Thanks Jason!!

Grumbo...CTM is sort of like our green stamps...you used to get Green Stamps or Top Value Stamps when you shopped and it would take you a million books of stamps to get a toaster!! Am I dating myself or what??? Does anyone else remember these!!

Hey, wait a minute...

This is what my employer pays me in! He said it was honest-to-gosh, real Canadian Dollars!?!?!



Now what do I do with it? I have over $3000 in Canadian Tire Money!

 

[Grumbo]

Travis do I have a deal for you!!!!!
On behalf of JGE I will take that stuff off of your hands, and in return will give you both the new and improved REAS package along with the transportation to the pier in L.A. from the Holiday Inn using JGE's state of the art shuttle.
Please email me for the snail mail address and you too can have pedicure results like Mark requested.

Cheers,
Grumbo
