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

[budamacdvcr]

Good morning gentlemen.

I got up almost an hour before the alarm. MK today with stops at Harmony, BBB, and CRT. DD is going as Merida while DS decided to wear his Jake pjs today. They look great and don't look like pja at all. I put the over under at 4.5 for times we get accused of dying and/or perming DD's hair.

Last night two teen girls were dressed as present Belle and Briar Rose and headed to MNSSHP. They got a shock when DD ran up and gave them a hug. The girls kept in character. It was hysterical.

Enjoy and very cool about the older girls staying in character for DD. Halloween time is still on my DISbucket list

Good morning Dads! Listening to MK opening / entrance area music loop and being caught up here - nice to be back to normal

Anyone have any thoughts on the Avatar Land and AK announcements or did I miss that while away? Have a good one guys and enjoy.

Happy Tuesday Men!

Afternoon guys. Just got back from fedex where I sent off all the official apostilled documents for our dossier to our adoption agency. We also put together photo books for each of the kids. It was a lot of fun putting those together. I really hope they like them.

I hope they enjoy the books! Glad to see it is continuing to move forward.

If you need to FedEx anything else over, like a care package, or any other paperwork let me know. I work for FedEx so I might be able to help you out, *I* get an 85% discount or something crazy.

Any my rates are up about 85%.

81 more days!

It kind of makes you wonder why these types of people would spend $200-300 to get in, buy alcohol and get tossed into jail. I can think of at least 30 ways to get arrested for next to nothing. Loser!

Ok we'll stop talking about them.

On this date 10 years ago, Marlins beat the Cubs to force game 7 in the NLCS. They would win that game and eventually win the series. If you are a baseball fan, ESPN did a great show about the fan who tried to catch the foul ball (he was one of many), called Catching Hell.

Last time the Marlins were relevant. Feel bad for the guy but we will take the win.

EDITED: It is on ESPN 2 at 7:00 Eastern tonight.

EDITED EDITED: The program directory was wrong, its not on now.

Hey CJ. Patriots now have a 2 game lead in the division. With the Fins idle, you must have been watching the game and sticking pins in the Brady voodoo doll. Looks like 6-1 with the Jets coming up next week. Let's see if the fins can keep up.

Did you see the foul ball that Fielder dropped and tried to blame on the fans? Went off his glove and may have cost them the game. And this right after failing to stop the throw from SS that bounce and he couldn't catch. My DD could have caught that one. Without those two plays we may be looking at 0-2 right now.

Back home after long week at wdw with the extended family. maybe we can win an emmy for best family drama series. And dodged a major accident on 81 in Harrisonburg VA. Jack knifed tractor and five cars.. just in front of us. Luck of the Irish in that it only cost us five minutes because we were able to drive around it. Didn't look like any injuries but very messy.

Glad everyone is OK and you were able to avoid the accident. Is there a family drama TR in process? I like to read these things, it makes me feel better about my dysfunctional family.

Oh...

I had higher hopes...

Then your on the wrong board.

-Smirnoff Ice triple black

-Smirnoff Ice mixed drinks (screwdrivers, blueberry lemonade, peach bellini, cranberry lemonade)

- Budweiser Platinum

- Samuel Adams Octoberfest seasonal variety (6 different beers per 12pk)

- Bacardi Hurricanes

All in one keg? I'm coming to your house.

Evening guys, you all seem like a good group of guys, glad to be a part of it.

Stick around. That opinion will change pretty quickly.

So not only do I get to hear it from all the sports talk radio shows, but I have to hear it from you too? Et tu, CJ?

Bartman's play was far from the reason they lost. It's actually comical that he gets any blame, given how many things went wrong after that. I think part of the reason it became such a big deal was the way Alou reacted to it, which was ridiculous.

Yeah, Bartman didn't deserve that. Right when it happened, I was just as upset as Alou was, and I can't blame him for his reaction. I would have reached for the ball too if I was in that seat. And I really think Alou would have caught it (although he says otherwise). Just another chapter in my long sad history with this team. I'm guessing we'll lose at least 90 games next year. In 2015 I think we'll be competitive.

There were announcements? What did I miss?

 

[mm1971]

We did cross paths I think, in the OKW hospitality House parking lot on saturday afternoon, if the GM crew cab pick up with the rear window sign for a farrier was you. We were in the blue jeep grand Cherokee waiting for you to vacate the prime parking space close the building.

You didn't even say hi with the opportunity for a meet up? Norm, he must still be POed about not getting his share of the dues.

MNSSHP was really good. You ask were right about the Halloween shirt selection. No big deal. We'll keep checking back to see if they have any more inventory.
Prayers to anyone who needs them.

Thanks for positing. Looks like AK will be open later int he evening in the future. We used to enjoy the EMH at night. Everything looks very interesting.

THIS GUY

Now that guy needs to be congratulated!

THIS GUY

Thought you did something like this a few weeks ago, did you save even more?

 

[that's nice]

THIS GUY

Do you cancel and rebook?

 

[mm1971]

Do you cancel and rebook?

Nope. On SW, you just sign in and then rebook the flights. It makes the changes without having to do separate transactions. They make it really easy.

 

[that's nice]

Nope. On SW, you just sign in and then rebook the flights. It makes the changes without having to do separate transactions. They make it really easy.

But then you get credited toward a future flight that must be used 1 year from your original booking date not cash in your pocket... correct?

Yeah, what he said!

But then you get credited toward a future flight that must be used 1 year from your original booking date not cash in your pocket... correct?

Yes, that's the down side. I don't actually get cash back, and the credit expires after a year. But with some of Southwest's fares out of Milwaukee, we can usually find a destination and price that matches where we want to go.

 

[Wherem I Now]

Let me guess. Yuo were thinking it would be a good day if your peanut butter and jelly sandwich doesn't get mushed in the bottom of your lunch bag?

A lot you know. It was Roast Beef!

But it did get mushed...

What were we talking about?

How many thumbs? You must secretly be from KY.

No, don't be ridiculous. He's drafting Tim Couch.

It could only improve my team.

I'm looking forward to it. The safari ride is one of my faves at all of WDW, but we rarely go to AK because of the early park closing time. And, it is so big with the major rides really far apart.

MNSSHP was really good. You ask were right about the Halloween shirt selection. No big deal. We'll keep checking back to see if they have any more inventory.
Prayers to anyone who needs them.

Yeah, not a great selection. Since I missed the ones at MK, I got a limited edition pin at DTD. We usually do most of our shopping there.

Teddy Bridgewater????

Maybe. I might try to get an actual keeper RB first and then Bridgewater with the second.
