DIS Dads DDC XXX: Mike Mike Mike Mike Mike, What Day Is It Mike?

[Cinderella's Fella]

Aren't all Canadians cool by definition, and latitude?

So, the attitude at that latitude is cool?

 

[that's nice]

The life of CJ. I'm not working today either, but I have to sit at my desk a few hours in case work needs to be done.

Yes. We do a MNSSHP every year. We close a park the day before, sleep in late, don't go to a park that day, and then go to MNSSHP at 4:00 PM. The decorations and extras are worth it.

Nice plan.

iT's good. New York Strip and a mahi mahi dish were both good, because I have to sample a bit of what everyone orders. Also, reasonably priced for dinner and we had great service. The prime rib at SSR Turf Club further down river is excellent as well.

I'd probably stay away from the steak... and go for the seafood pasta or the seared scallops.

I have but cant remember what I had, it was a few yrs ago when we stayed there. It is ok to good but not great. They had Yeungling ! so it could not have been to bad.

Oh yea Yeungling? SWEET!

My dad just dropped me off another case of it. I guess I better start drinking it.

Today's date has been circled in Red on the calendar. Tim agreed with me!

I'm not your nemesis, I agree with you on occasion.

Every time I receive an email notification for this thread I think "Is today hump day....again?". Seems every day is hump day at the DDC

You have it set up to send you e-mail notifications of this thread??? What on Earth were you thinking????

I was gonna type the same thing.

They def DO NOT need accounts and Disney wouldn't permit if they are < 18 (of course that's based on what you enter). I'm like you, my kids have no knowledge of email and I don;t expect them to for some time!

The intent of FP+ here was sound but execution flawed.
It makes sense based on a group and having someone who can coordinate for said group. But it's tricky once multiple people decide to make changes.

Re: the kids and their accounts...
Your wife can extend an invite via mutual friend (i.e., you) so that you don't need an e-mail. Then you can accept on the girls' behalf and DW can then makes selections for the whole clan. That way, you're both able to make choices for the whole family.
Not terribly difficult but not documented well.

Being a manager of technology, I like to see things in action versus reading the "how-to" section. And beinga man, I generally don't feel like I need direcions.

Essentially, you can make choices for everyone...but ultimately, if the person is an adult and managing their own account, they can take actions for their own FP+.

Real example:
1. DW made plans for the family to do Tomorrowland Speedway. I can modify my FP+ and my girls (I manage theirs) but DW has to change her own. Same thing with cancels. I can't cancel my wife's FP+ for this one b\c SHE made the selection.
2. I made plans for Soarin for the whole family. I can\did modify the time for all of us b\c I had made the reservation on behalf of them. If I wanted to, I could have also cancelled.

It would have been nice if DW or I could override choices, simply b\c we both do planning. But i understand the conundrum it would present. There should be a setting that enables spouses to manage each others FP+.Like an option in the profile that let's you enter your spouses account name and select a radio button that says, can override FP+ selections.

In our case, my wife had made some plans that we opted to change. But now we'd need her to modify if we wanted to move to a different attraction or time. This actually caused us to lose our FP+ selection for Illuminations. When she booked FP+, she only did it for her\me, not the DDs as they weren't linked to her account. When Dis went to add the kids on, the # of FP+ for Illuminations were gone.

For DW's phone, she uses my account anyways, reduces a lot of headaches

It's a good thing you have email notification for this thread, as it get so few post.

No I was looking for people to add to the Bieber list, from either side of the border.

I've had A-Rod and Anthony Weiner on my "Just Go Away" list for a while.

Has anybody told the wives?

All of Don's co-workers are giving him the stinkeye since his phone keeps beeping every 15 seconds.

I figured out how to avoid a war selecting a DisDads logo. Except for the lawyer part, which I have evaded like a draft doger moving to Canada.

Pretty Cool there, Mr. Bill.

Anthony Weiner .

Is it wrong that I giggle every time they mention this guy on CNN.

 

[twokids0204]

I went years ago, late April '03. Arrived the day after Easter, and crowds were non-existant? No idea why that was, for all intents and purposes, it should have been slammed. I know at the end of that trip, MK was closing early for Grad Nites

I have nothing really to add here, except I am impressed on seeing the saying "all intent and purpose" actually used correctly.

If I had a nickle for every time I hear someone say "all intensive purpose" I'd.... well, probably have a couple bucks...

Good on ya Brent!!!

I like the new guy, taking shots at Canada already.

That's alright, we laugh at him here all the time too. He is a living version of onomonapiea (I think I spelled that wrong).

I really enjoyed the last podcast, I liked the format and discussion!

 

[mattsdragon]

I did it again. . .

I went to the TPA&S board again.

Why do I do it?



Someone smack me next time I go over there.

I think I said that in a job interview once.
