DIS Dads DDC XXIV - What Bacon Shortage? We're Full Of It!

Andy, I had a phone interview with Purdue, but they said I am overquailified. Apparently knowing what a cover 2 defense is and wanting to re-establish a recruiting base in Florida, Texas and California is not something they want to do. Sorry

Been to Delaware many times mostly a quick 15min drive thru, but I do spend a few days a year there at my friends house, Things I like about Delaware, no sales tax, you can carry a unconcealed firearm, small quick to get around state.

As we've said before, there's a lot to do in Delaware. You can go to Philly, Baltimore, DC...

Like your strategy...

Are you going to follow it up with a Kitchen Sink chaser?

We'll have to see. I've never visited the Beach/Yacht Club resorts, so if I can get enough assistance from the rest of the family, we could try to venture over that way on an EPCOT day.

My birthday was a little over a week ago and my mom has been asking me what I want to do for my birtday dinner. I have definitely considered throwing that option out there, depending on whether we have time to head that direction.

You obviously have no idea what is going on up there anyway. Recruiting isn't the problem. Especially Florida and Texas. Purdue has always had a great pipeline out of Texas and Hope has done a great job of recruiting Florida.

Now you'd be overqualified if you were asked what the best situation is for running a bubble screen and your answer was anything other than "all the time."

He’s gonn’a need a bigger belly to pull that off

That’s like being down here. We’re the spot where you spend the night on the way to Orlando or the town where you buy gas on the way to the beach.

Happy late birthday!

The ultimate would be to take on the Kitchen Sink, then saunter back into Epcot and tackle Mission:Space. It would give new perspective to the phrase "blow out your candles..."

Everyone we know that's been to St. Lucia loves it. The only thing that kept us away is that a lot of resorts have many steps to get down to the beach.

We were to St Lucia on our first cruise, along with St Maarten and St Kitts. St Lucia was our least favourite of the 3. We did an island tour of both St Lucia and St Maarten and like St Maarten much more. Now I'm guessing it is a bit more expensive as well. The bonus though is Orient Beach.

We went to Beaches in cream the night after the marathon with the intention of sharing a kitchen sink. When we got there we all agreed we were too tired, so we wound up getting milkshakes or ice cream cones. Too tired to eat ice cream was a new level of tired for me.

That’s like being down here. We’re the spot where you spend the night on the way to Orlando or the town where you buy gas on the way to the beach.

I thought that was Wilson or Raleigh.

Oooo - interesting plan. Especially if you add in a stop by Club Cool for a nice cold Beverly on your way to Mission: Space (Orange, of course).

Don't give me ideas. My wife won't appreciate it.

Parade float ownage!!!!

Howdy Fellow dads, hope all is well, prayers go out to everyone who needs them. DDs daycare asked her to be on their Christmas float this Sunday during our city christmas parade and of course my Diva DD said yes. I'm excited that she got picked and she wanted to do it.

Same general area…
Same generalities apply.

A kind of Culinary Iron-man Triathlon.
I won’t be attempting that one either.


That being said...

I triple dog dare you!

Very cool! She should have a lot of fun.
Every kid should be in at least one parade in his or her life.
No matter how big or small.

I was talking about stretching the field and slant patterns and they looked like I was from Mars

Nice! Enjoy the parade!

Where's the tag fairy when we need them. Scott said I'm awesome!

Her also once said I was right...

Only to be buried in DISDad history.

Andy, it is a TRIPLE dog dare afterall....

With that exciting new, I have to add, apparently since I do not pay them to watch DD on weekends, I have to also ride in the float, not happy about that but I'll gladly do that for DD, especially since she's so excited about it

 

[AirGoofy]

Look what arrived in the mail from Ron. Hmmmm, so things do make it past Stitch. Where are all those dues dole whips, bacon, beer, or cake? Or, does Stitch not like caramel popcorn.

Excellent news. Congrats to her.

Well, someone has a good opinion of you.

If you decide not to do a park one day, head over to that area at night. One of my favorite restaurants, ESPN club, is over there. Then, a short walk over for that Kitchen Sink. But, walk back over to the Boardwalk and check out the free entertainment. They usually have a magician, plate spinner, or other act(s) doing street performances. And, the acts move around the Boardwalk, so that you can sit on a bench without moving and the kids can run to watch the performance.

Too tired for ice cream? Confused. .

Pull her out of school for Mickey? Why not?! But I think we realized last night that the only one getting pulled out of school is my wife(teacher). New Girl won't be ready for an American middle school, so we'll probably home-school her for a year or two which means we can say good-bye to my wife's income for a few years. I just have to remind myself, I'm not losing a DVC contract, I'm gaining a daughter.

Stinks about the income and DVC contract, but worth it. Congrats.

I dreaded coming back to the office this week, but I have to say the Main Street USA Christmas loop on d-cot has certainly eased the pain!

Hope everyone's having a great week.

That is a great loop. The POTC music gets me going.

Low sales tax, as in zero sales tax. So yeah, it's pretty low. I always get messed up in other states when I go to buy something and they ask for an amount that's different than the one on the tag..

KY taxes everything - sales, income, property - and has the lowest education, highest obesity, and voted republican. Try to find any logic there.

I used all the Thanksgiving food for a good purpose this year. I ate as much as I possibly could in order to stretch my stomach and get into condition for our trip next week. I'm going to do some serious damage to the ribs and bottomless milkshake at Whispering Canyon next week. They might not be in business anymore by the time this epic DDC meal takes place in January.

Excellent plan. I wish you good luck.
