DIS Dads DDC XXXII: A Dole Whip in Paradise

[Cinderella's Fella]

Not sure, was thinking of just going as a Team Sparrow pirate. Being a snowman would just bring on a lot of jokes and abuse. Still time to figure it out.

Get these and go as Sven.

Cheap win for Uruguay. Quick red card for Italy and then a Suarez bites a player and nothing? Goal scored a minute later. US needs to win or I won't have anyone to root for.

The red was legit. Challenging late with your studs up right in front of the ref will get you an early exit. I can't believe the linesman didn't see Suarez biting the Italian player. If I thought FIFA was corrupt, I'd say they are tilting the pitch to favor South American teams.

Suarez should be done for the tournament. Will FIFA man up and make the right decision?

FIFA is a joke but I imagine we won't see him play for the rest of the tournament. He should have gotten thrown out and the ball awarded to Italy. Who knows what would have happened then.

Hey nemie! US will most likely tie, even though everyone says they won't. neither team will push forward as it will expose them to losing. I would be surprised to see either be too aggressive.

Lebron is leaving South Beach? What did you do?

I say you go as Olaf. No one here would make fun of your choice.

I'll take a draw but the winner will get a much easier game at the start of the elimination rounds.

The moving vans have not pulled up to the James mansion. Don't be surprised if Bosh and Wade also opt out and then all three sign with Miami. A possibility they are talking about down here is Chicago as the main competition. Wether they stay or not, the Heat are going to be a changed team next year. A lot of the supporting cast will be gone. I have faith in Riley though.

Agree the red was legit, a bit fast but you can't argue with it. The ref saw the bite marks and should have done something. FIFA corrupt? Say it isn't so. Did I mention the ref was from Mexico?

"Thought" FIFA was corrupt??? Brackets, schedules, some teams with extra day in between games (like Germany / USA) - not FIFA .....................

I was going to put a winking smiley but that's hard to do on the mobile app.

Long two days. Up and down the mountainsides yesterday scouting ginseng populations for the Feds, transplanted 1/5 of an acre of pumpkins today with another acre to go tomorrow weather permitting. I could be getting too old for this, but until some unknown wealthy relative with heirs kicks off I have to keep at it.

 

[disdadIL]

Good morning gentlemen. I have time to briefly check in and report that Sean's Gungan assassins haven't got me yet. Between my crazy hours, DW wanting to paint the house, and not having much child care there hasn't time to check in. Congrats nemie.

Now that I'm a black belt officially, I have new assassins

Moving up to Ewoks?

I assumed you were tongue and cheek in referencing FIFA and corruption. How about Suarez from Uruguay biting a guy today.

Is that really even a penalty?

What will the Feds do with all that ginseng?

She is busy though. All in the name of padding her resume. The coral restoration is kind of neat. Reminds me a bit of watching astronauts train for space walks. You are nearly weightless and the work is pretty meticulous. Not easy to do and you have to focus on the task at hand..

I didn't even think about the resume padding. I just thought she was having fun.

Hey, I thought you had no $$ left? Liar.

Paul just opted out of his contract and expects to sign with Wade & Bosh &

I think if they thawed out Walt Disney himself and walked him down Main Street he still wouldn't be as big an attraction as Anna & Elsa.

Dead Man Walking? I think they already did that movie.

You don't know? This was a test to see who bailed on reading my Hawaii TR. .

Did you ever finish the last trip report? I think I passed out with some scary story about a baby.....

We are going Sunday, 10/5. Norm is planning on that night as well. I can't remember either, but I thought you were coming in after we are gone. We leave on the 8th. If you are there between the 3rd and the 8th, we'll have to say hi.
?

I'll have my tickets for the MNSSHP that night.

 

[AirGoofy]

Tony & Norm - nice job on the meetup. I hope you enjoyed your mocha tall grande nonfat half calf venti espresso caramel frap whip with sprinkles. .

I like my coffee like I like my women - Yeah, filled with booze.

Can somebody give me the English interpretation of whatever this is???

Expensive crap to overpower the flavor of the bad coffee. I like the Dunkin Donuts blend coffee.

Wow, my 1500th post. I want to thank all of you. If you all didn't accept that I refuse to multiquote and that I notoriously pad my posts, I wouldn't have gotten here. !

Congrats.

Yep, BIG fan of BLT! And we finally added on the points, too since I last posted.

Yeah, we added on a small contract but I had to sell it. The van died, so I sold the BLT contract to buy DW a car. I still have the BWV contract, and one trip a year is all we really can afford.

Not so good news for me today. I hurt my knee skiing back in January. Still have discomfort\pain, so they sent me for an MRI. Torn ACL. Now I can blame my slow 5K time in March on that. Trying to get surgery scheduled for July. I want plenty of rehab time for our November trip. Fortunately, they aren't reconstructing (yet). Just cleaning up scar tissue and meniscus since the knee is stable at this point.

It's hard for me to get into soccer. I don't hate or disparage it,just tough for me to enjoy. With that being said, I'll watch our country compete in anything. I mean I've watched competitive marbles and lawn mower racing before.

We are getting a live stream of the game at work on Thursday and having lunch brought in.

Moving up to Ewoks?

They are shifty and dangerous with sticks, rocks and other items that can be harvested in woodland environments. Much like our Canadian neighbors, they are cute and fuzzy, but shouldn't be trifled with.

I think biting should be far more permissible than it is. I mean c'mon, it always get media headlines when it occurs. Just seems like good PR to me.

Stupid cars. You know my reason for adding, to get the resort that we want versus getting whatever was left at 7 months! Ideally, we have more than enough. at some point in my life, I'd like to think we can do 2 trips. Perhaps a family trip and DW\Me trip.

Hate to hear that, hope you have a speedy recovery! sounds like it could of been worse.

Are you legally allowed to wear gloves without a concealed weapons permit?

Sorry to hear that. I tore mine on on Easter Sunday and have opted against surgery. Insurance covered a fancy brace that I wear whenever I doing something strenuous or that involves a lot of twisting. I don't have much pain on a day to day basis, so I'm ok with that. Good luck with the surgery and recovery.

Morning guys.

I thought about keeping it for later, but my goal is to be living near WDW later, so hopefully I won't miss the extra points.

Morning guys. Scary storms here yesterday. A tornado touched down a couple of streets away. DW could see the funnel cloud forming so she got all the kids into an interior room. They were a little shaken when I got home , but everyone is safe. Thank God.

Glad to hear everyone is OK! Those storms were no joke.

T minus 3 days and counting until Emma's Dad comes for a little visit.

Anybody else in Ohio on Saturday....stop over...we'll be out back having a beverage or 6!



Have a great Wednesday everybody!

I've always been more of a potato sack racer myself, but it's never a bad idea to diversify.

Glad you're all OK. Nothing like a Near Death Experience to say Welcome to America!

‘Morning all…
It occurs to me that I should stop asking folks: "just how stupid can you be?"
It seems some of them are taking it as a challenge.

Read that there are now the slow "rope walks" at MK due to E&A and Mine Train so not sure you can run. I will look for it but the walk behind the ropes goes all the way down Main Street. Anyone been there recently for MK open?

Interesting…
Kind’a like sending out the pace car before dropping the green flag.

I think if they thawed out Walt Disney himself and walked him down Main Street he still wouldn't be as big an attraction as Anna & Elsa.

I believe you’re right.
I’m a bit dumbfounded by this one. I like the characters and enjoyed the film.
It was good, but does it really deserve this magnitude of fervor?
I must be missing something here.

Get these and go as Sven.

Brilliant!
I’m pretty sure my DW wouldn’t allow me to keep the girl though.

Sorry to hear this. May the procedure and the PT go well and progress quickly.

Sorry to hear that as well. Must have missed where you told us about it earlier. Are you still running?

I just get this image of a frozen monkey with a bionic leg hobbling across the savanna…
While randomly beating folks over the head with a walking staff.
