DIS Dads DDC XVII - Leap year edition

[tutter99]

Morning Dads!

Attention all DISDad's

Just read on the Theme Park Boards.

Photopass CD is going up to $169

This is effective March 21st, 2012

The Previsit offer is still $99.95, and it is rumored to be going up to $129.95

If you buy the previsit offer today it NEVER EXPIRES (although you still have 30 days from the pics being taken to order).

Thanks for the heads up, have to dig up the discount code and get it booked for the December trip.

I think I have this one. My goal is to eat at every restaurant at WDW. So, while I like Via Napoli, I wanted to try something new. Chefs de France fits the bill.

Chefs was one of the best meals we had our last trip.

congradulations on finishing and if i was one of your workers I would be the complainer what i did better !! i want a re review Now Please and see what you would say ?

It has happened, my team pretty much knows that unless you can show me actual numbers where I was wrong, my re-evaluation generally digs deeper and lowers the score.

Good morning

Annual reviews start today and I am first up at 7:45 this morning. If you could say a short prayer I would appreciate it. I hate these things, it's me and four managers

Gee, almost 2 hours and no word on how it went. Wonder if it started of with "We'd like to discuss this Disboards.com with you."

CRUD. Found out my one research assistant I was going to lose in June because of budget cuts is done in 3 weeks because there was even less in the pot than they thought.

Yuck.

My idiot brother texted me earlier saying he needed a favor. Just got off the phone with him after an hour long conversation. This is the brother who I drove to south jersey for in the middle of the night when he had been kicked out of the house he was living in and sleeping in his broken down car for 4 days.

So... he was at my house for a few days, then went to live with one of our other brothers back in NJ, where he is closer to the rest of the family to help support him and get him on his feet. Well, that hasn't stopped him from talking to his ex whom he resided with (along with her family and a cast of animals). Apparently now, she served him with a restraining order. His response is to fight it and he still thinks he can smooth things over and go back to being with her.

It's a long sordid story. But after this conversation tonight, I have half a mind to get a restraining order against him myself. He doesn't want advice. He thinks he knows everything (yet he didn't see this whole restraining order thing coming, now did he?) I don't think he'll ever get the picture.

Everybody has that relative. Sorry you're having to deal with his problems. Hopefully you can finally get him to understand what's going on and get him to correct his actions, but if he hasn't figured it out by now...

Good morning

Annual reviews start today and I am first up at 7:45 this morning. If you could say a short prayer I would appreciate it. I hate these things, it's me and four managers

I'd tell you good luck, but considering your review was almost 2 hours ago...

Just as long as you didn't forget the coverpages on those reports or you might have a visit from the Bobs.

I was going to ask if the 4 managers were named Bob. I knew somebody would beat me to this reference.

I'm going with my initial thought. I got checked out by a hot chick and I'm sexy and I know it.

That's the one I'd go with.

Apparently, you work out.

 

[thheaton]

FRom this morning, see what all that exercise is doing for me!!!

Just got back from run and saw your "sexy and I know it" moment. Now I'm ready to head out and see if I can get a wave of my own.

 

[thheaton]

on a serious note, I'm way out of shape. sad when the first day of the first week of the runner's world 8-week beginning runner's training program whips me.

Need to drop at least 40lbs. currently at 256.

 

[Grubbsy]

I want you to go out and get a pig and please you know what happends from here hope your not squiemish

We don't have many pig farms in Pottstown, but I will see what I can do!

 

[RodBelding]

finally getting off the couch and start exercising today. I'm looking to be ready for a couple races next year. everest challenge and either Tower of terror 10 miler or the half-marathon in nov. would love to run them this year but my class schedule and then clinical fieldwork won't allow it this year.

Good luck! DW is doing the ToT 10 miler, so if you decide on that one let me know and we can meet up.

 

[baseballmickey]

James, you might want to get another freezer, for your brother.

What?!?

Just sayin'.

well, if a second one is offered, i won't refuse it. I'll take it... just in case.

Thanks for the heads up, have to dig up the discount code and get it booked for the December trip.

discount code? I'm all about discount codes right now.

also in the drop 40lbs club... just started, it will be 2 weeks into my attempt tomorrow. Let's do this!! (I wish I could do the run as well, but can't swing the trip)


Thanks for the empathy on my sibling frustration.

Just got back from Best Buy, where I bought a PanDigital personal photo scanner/converter (4x6). Just scanned a quick pic, and one negative strip to test it out. Works pretty well. A lot quicker and easier than my all-in-one printer. I am pleased with how the negatives came out, although they do need a bit of color correction. Lastly, it can scan directly to an SD card, which is cool because I can take it with me and scan photos anywhere. Probably doesn't excite everyone else, but I'm in the middle of scanning two rubbermaid bins full of old photos I got from my mom... and now I can take them on the train with me, or to work and help chip away at the pile when I have downtime.

Here is the pic I scanned. It's one of my personal favorite WDW pics, and it's the last time I was in the HoP.

as you can see, the dust and scratches are pretty evident. Mental Note: wipe the photos first to at least remove the dust.

 

[afwdwfan]

Gee, almost 2 hours and no word on how it went. Wonder if it started of with "We'd like to discuss this Disboards.com with you."

Hmmm... almost 4 hours now and still no word. Maybe the firewall got expanded.

 

[thheaton]

Good luck! DW is doing the ToT 10 miler, so if you decide on that one let me know and we can meet up.

I will keep you updated. not sure if i could walk that far without giving out of breathe at the moment.

 

[tutter99]

discount code? I'm all about discount codes right now.

I'll put DW on it, normally she finds ones for $25 to $50 off.

also in the drop 40lbs club... just started, it will be 2 weeks into my attempt tomorrow. Let's do this!! (I wish I could do the run as well, but can't swing the trip)

We do have the other thread from the New Years resolutions that is still going. I've got 12 weeks to be able to get up to a respectable 20 mile bike time.

This is definitely getting worrisome. I liked middlepat's review better.

Here is the pic I scanned. It's one of my personal favorite WDW pics, and it's the last time I was in the HoP.

Is that you in the middle with your arm around Millard Fillmore (or whoever that is)?

 

[RodBelding]

give it time. You'll be surprised how quickly your endurance increases once you get a good base under your belt.

 

[that's nice]

How is the training going

It's going... but harder than I thought. Not the actual running, just getting the time to get out there and do it. Barry is going to be screwed once the baby comes.

I need to post an update on our PTR..

Happy birthday to the little Princess.

Thank you!!!! She had a crazy weekend!

Thanks! I'm sure she'll love it when I show it to her.

 

[that's nice]

I'm still in a state of shock that this thread is still going.... I mean, it's the middle of MARCH and yet it keeps going like the Energizer bunny. Good thing Aaron created the distraction board

I'm shocked this thread is still going too.

Photopass CD is going up to $169

Thanks for the heads up... I pre-bought my CD last night.

 

[that's nice]

And remember a week ago when I had that stuff cut off of me and the stitches and all that stuff?????

Well - it's cancer.

Prayers not needed - just something I'll have to keep my eye on for the rest of my life.

Fortunately, it's not the kind that spreads. Big Thumb----->

Man, that sucks. I'm glad it was caught early. Sending prayers anyway.

Signed up for the 2012Disney Wine and Dine half Marathon today with my wife. Anyone else running the raCE?

I think I'm going to run the 5k. I'll be in the middle of training for the WDW 1/2 marathon in January.

 

[that's nice]

nice picture love the BBB

Thanks!!!!

So, my initial thought is that I'm sexy and I know it.

LOL... keep telling yourself that.


So if UCONN makes it to the second round, we placing a wager on the game?

A great start to the day.

On the way to work this morning, I look over at the light and an attractive woman is looking at me. She waves. I wave back. The light turned green and she turned right. I tried to get my phone to take a picture, but no luck.

So, my initial thought is that I'm sexy and I know it.

Then, i think, did i have a booger on my nose? No. Or, did i date her in past? Don't think so. Or, does she have a child that is in dance, soccer, softball, basketball, percussion, school, swim, tennis, summer camp, or anything similar with one of my children? I don't know. Who can keep up?

I'm going with my initial thought. I got checked out by a hot chick and I'm sexy and I know it.

Go with your gut instinct on this

Did your new iPad arrive yet?

 

[theduck619]

So, the review went well. 2 of the Sr. Managers could not make it so that made me relax a bit. They think I am oing a good job, gave me somer additional goals to work towards and got an attaboy.

No raise though. I'm in sales so my raise comes from selling more

Anybody need adhesive or foams?

Yea, happens to me all the time. If you got it, you got it.

Glad it went well. Do you have foam cheese heads? I may be in the market for a few for the half marathon.

So you're in bondage?


Afternoon everyone, happy hoops season! Haven't really been keeping up with the thread too much this week as I've been enjoying this wonderful spring weather (oh, and that little thing called work). Hope everyone is doing ok.

Interesting moves by my Bears. I think Brandon Marshall could work out great so long as he can stay out of jail.
