Since Tim said I couldn't hug the girls in the office to keep them warm, I've been having some fun with math. 98 months until retirement. Assuming 2 vacation months a year, that is down to 82 months.

Top O the Morning Dads. Since I have basically wrapped up next trip planning with FP yesterday, here's the ADRs and FPs for Christmas trip:
Sunday 28th - Portobello @ DTD

Thu 1st - FOTLK, EE, Dinosour

Good restaurant choices. Was the Kilimanjaro Safari ride booked up at AKL or is that just not your thing? If I had to ride anniversary rides repeatedly, then I may pick that one.

And a lot of them make more at Kentucky than they'll ever make in the NBA. :rotfl::rotfl2::lmao:

Absolutely. Why do all these recruits want to play at UK? Is it the weather - no. Is it the girls - could be. Is the booster support payment plan - ?????. Not until an NCAA investigation says it is. :lmao:

BTW... your care package is one purchase away from being complete. This last item is proving to be a PITA to track down. I'm going on a mission to find it tomorrow morning. pirate:

You've already worked way harder than you should.
 
Do you remember those light up Mickey head USB drives that Disney was sending out with Magic Bands a year or so ago? I sent my son to school with one yesterday with some vacation pictures loaded on it to show to his class as part of his "keep a travel journal" assignment. After he plugged it in and it lit up, his teacher stopped class, grabbed her cell phone and took a picture of it. I got an email that afternoon from her asking where we got it because she loved it so much.

I think this is going to be a good school year for my son. :thumbsup2
 

Spent part of the am voting. Florida is an early voting state and I will be out of town election day. Now if they can only count right.

Morning, guys. Last day of work before vacation! Woohoo :dance3:

I think we need yellow and gray. You doing anything special with your collection?

I throw them in the "whatever you have in your pocket when you get home" vase.

Happy trails!

What care package and why am I not getting one?

Well played.

Good plans. Heaven't eaten at Portobello in a while so let us know what you think

Hi there. :wave2:

Who are you again? And have you heard from your other bean town Goomba?

She is one of us. ::yes::

So you took care of voting early. Now you just need to vote often.:thumbsup2

Why? You plan on sucking up to the teacher with Disney gifts? I guess that explains why you have to keep pulling your kid out of school... so you can get her some Disney swag. :earboy2:

We will be hitting each park at RD. Since we have done this time of year before the parks can hit capacity. So for AK we will hit Safaris first thing so no FP. Plan is to hit Space Mtn, RnR, Test Trac all at RD.

Been several years for us as well so will let yas know
 
Hi Paul, How's the wife and kids?

They're great. We miss you guys though. Visit again soon. :)

Who are you again? And have you heard from your other bean town Goomba?

Sorry about the absence. Some knucklehead from Miami came up here and I stole his credit card at a Red Sox game and spent a ton of money on scotch and disney swag. Needed to lay low in case he frequents this board. Doubt he's smart enough to notice though. ;)

Good thinking. He'll never figure it out. And, Randall will be around to give you a membership number soon.

Yeah, it is great at RD. Even better with a Tusker House before park opens ADR so that you can be first in line and watch the herd running toward you. I think the animals are most active in the morning. I might try to ride it once and FP to ride it again in the morning.

Norm, Louisville fan tonight.

Oh yeah. They just need to keep it up for another half.

I send care packages to those people I've won numerous bets from (except Barry)... I feel bad taking all their money. :lmao:

Glad to accept your sympathy.

I still have mine. It is available for the right price.

I say go for it. The bank had already accepted responsibility for charges. I do find it interesting that Jim built out a man cave right after the credit card was lost.

That fumble after the interception may hurt later on. Great stop on 3rd and 4th down. Damn, a long touchdown.

This year I went from an intense rivalry dislike for Jimbo to he is an a$$. Adopted Bobby's beliefs on discipline. "Dad Gummit, he Ain't in jail so he can play." Bothered me about the last couple of years with Urban when he adopted the same attitude.

I think it is hurting them now. Florida St doesn't have an overwhelming defense, but it is good enough for the Cards. I was hoping crab legs would get it shoved back down his throat.

Dang it! C'mon L'ville don't blow a 21 point lead. Can't take Jimbo and the bad egg QB.
 
Nice bounce back drive by L'ville now hold this lead. Blackhawks kill my nerves going to shootout to win tonight.
 
Hey all. Hope everyone has a happy Halloween tomorrow!!!
 
Morning, guys. Last day of work before vacation! Woohoo :dance3:

From what I'm understanding with these Magic Bands, they are good for 5 years and I think they are all linked together:confused3, If this is the case next summer I think I will wear a different color everyday during our trip:scratching, although probably no one would ever notice, it still seems cool:thumbsup2

I've always been somewhat of a collector, for Disney it's Transportation Cards (have complete sets of all 3 series), Sorcerer Cards, Safety Cards, pressed pennies, different covers on park maps, stickers etc. And now Magic Bands only need 2 more for the complete offered set:good vibes (my son is way ahead of me since he had to have the Olaff & Haunted Mansion Magic Bands::yes::)

Now most of these things are free, and seem meaningless to most visitors, but believe it or not they carry some value, some are actually pretty decent, especially as a complete set:woohoo:

Fun game to watch but disappointing result. Thought they should have pounded it down FSU's throat in the second half. Another example of why college football is the best game out there.
