We still don't have our docs either. Whenever I hear a truck drive by in the afternoon, I always look out to see if it's the UPS truck..... I sure hope they come soon.

Oh no! - It's certainly not my intent to make anyone look bad. All of you have been such a big help to me. It's very therapeutic to be able to discuss the upcoming cruise with fellow cruisers. If it weren't for all of you all, I'd be going crazy because I've had to be so tight lipped with family, friends, etc. I've shared very little with any of them because one inadvertent slip of the tongue and the cat is out of the proverbial bag. So you all are very important to me. Thanks for letting me share.

Any Demon Deacon fans on this cruise? They'll be playing Temple on 12/13 @ 7:00 on ESPN2. As soon as dinner is over, I'll be down in Diversions watching the game - hopefully with my lucky sweatshirt on if my wife will let me pack it.

Hey Sam... Are we going to have to arm wrestle to see whether we get to watch the MNF Titans -vs- Chiefs game, or the basketball game? The UK-vs-Indiana and UK-vs-Louisville game happen on the 11th and 18th respectively, so I should be able to catch those games somewhere.

As for packing your lucky sweatshirt... That's the beauty of me getting to do all the packing. DW's Tennessee Titans jersey WILL end up in the suitcase (along with mine)

LOL! I was on the Magic back in early March and caught some of the end-of-season b-ball games in Diversions. Rest easy knowing there are multiple plasma TVs in Diversions, so we can all be happy.

And if anyone sees a dude walking around the ship with a WAKE sweatshirt on, please introduce yourself.

Hey Guys,

Sorry as for me I am a Syracuse fan all the way. Anyone else? They are doing well this year so far. Let's go champs. YEAH! It will be an orange Christmas for my boyfirend who LOVES them. I found a great web site for college items.

It is www.collegefootballstore.com

I bought two shirts on sale and a great Nike Jacket that is all Syracuse. I can't wait for this cruise. Also, sorry ahead of time because due to wear I live the next team to route for would be Temple. SORRY!

Well, I'll be sending Pixie Dust for everyone to get their docs and also for the party to go off without a hitch.

And if anyone sees a dude walking around the ship with a "Ron Artest Jersey" on, throw him overboard (Sorry, way off topic)

Oddly enough, on the wall opposite my desk in my office, as I type, I'm staring at a framed newpaper banner and layout from April 2, 1996 that says "UK 76 - Syracuse 67" (Sorry, I had to do it) - Did you just take your pixie dust back? lol

I'm a part time Temple fan myself. A young man named Chris Gaither, who we've sort of taken under our wing when needed played at Temple for a couple of seasons. He's from our hometown. I had an opportunity to meet Coach Chaney on a couple of occassions. He's a legend, and I always enjoyed my conversations with him.

 

[thejenjens]

Thanks. HA! HA! No you can still have my Pixie Dust. My boyfriend lived down the street from the basketball coah for years. His dad used to go to every practice that they had..I mean basketball and football. When they went to the first game one year his dad said look at this kid is from such and such and is however tall...and gave him all the stats of almost every player.

We were so happy last year when they won the champs. You can have your 96 however we have 03..LOL

Maybe we'll be their again this year fighting it out for the champs. We'll see.

I won't comment on UK basketball, but at least one good thing comes out of Kentucky - Corvettes.

(Duck and run...)

To be considerate of all those who are uninterested in reading Jen and I throw our basketball weight around, I've moved this to a PM. Let the applause begin!

I must add my 2 cents in as I am a woman from Kentucky but am neither fast nor beautiful.

Smchan, you've made a quick alliance with my dh. Though we are misplaced Kansans here in Kentucky we are NOT UK fans. But we ARE Chiefs fans! My dh is already planning on catching some of the Monday Night Football game on the boat!

Also, re: the "Ron Artest" basketball melee. Should any of you hear on the radio, see on TV, or read in the newspaper about a certain Sport Psychologist from Murray State University who studies fan behavior, THAT'S MY DH! He's been interviewed almost non-stop since the fight happened and was even quoted on the front page of the Houston Chronicle on Sunday. So if any of you have an opinion on the matter just find Dan....he lives for this #%*@.

 

[jwann]

Just got off the phone with DCL and got the list of movies that will be playing on our cruise:

Around the World in 80 Days
Brother Bear
Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen
Finding Nemo
Ladder 49
Home on the Range
The Incredibles
The Village
Miracle
Mr. 3000
Raising Helen
Pirates of the Carribean
Princess Diaries 2
National Treasure

Argh!! We've been infiltrated here in good ol' Kentucky! lol This must be that "insurgence" I've been hearing about on the news. Let the record reflect that it was neither Sam nor myself that said anyone was NOT beauitiful! lol - I guess my Honeymoon here in the forum is now officially over. My good neighbors down the road don't like my Cats or my Titans. Sounds like we're going to have a GREAT time at Diversions on Monday Night! You all are too much fun. Have a great day everyone!

Did I miss something? I thought Nemo had already been found - DD got to go see National Treasure yesterday on a school trip. Said it was "Awesome Dad! You'll Love It!" So, I'll have to take this one in. Popcorn's On Me!

 

[DisneyFam5]

Jwann - Thank you so much! I was going to call about movies next week. I didn't know if they'd have the info yet.


And to all you basketball fans. You can stop your arguing right now, because the Illini will be crushing all your dreams this year! Eventually they have to live up to their hype and potential and not completely fall apart in March! It's going to happen sometime in my lifetime! (I hope)

 

[jwann]

Everyone have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Safe travels!!

 

[DisneyFam5]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Jwann - I'm a stalker now! I googled your husband and read his article from the Houston Chronicle. Pretty impressive. Tell him that we will want his autograph now!

 

[Disneyfan37]

Come this Saturday 2 more weeks!YES!

Maria
