DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams December Event Info – DISapalooza (continued)

[DVCsince02]

Hey - DIS Facebook experts. I have a bizarre question for you.

Is there anyway to introduce one of your Facebook friends to another one of your Facebook friends using the technology? Without being too "obvious" about it?

See, I have this one Facebook friend who I honestly don't know well, but he is a handsome DISer, and is apparently single - but I don't want to ask too many questions because I only know this person through the DIS and don't want to seem like a wacko.

I also have this other Facebook friend who is a friend and coworker in IRL. She's beautiful and perfect and an amazing person, but just hasn't met Mr. Right yet. She's not "desperately seeking" or anything, but, from the little I've been able to figure out about him, I think they have a lot in common and might get along great - in spite of the great distance between them. I even think they are about the same age.

Should I...

1. Forget this crazy idea altogether because aforementioned guy will think I'm a wacko and I don't really know him IRL in the first place?

2. Forget this crazy idea altogether because it's a meddlesome, foolish thing to do?

3. Figure out how to give it a go?

Maybe it's the romantic in me coming out because it's my wedding anniversary.

Ask them if they are interested in an introduction. I say go for it.

Hope you feel better soon..

If anyone has to get sick, hopefully it will be now, so we will all be well for DAP.. Everyone take vitamin C!!!!

I plan on taking airborne a week before I leave and the whole time I'm there. Don;t know if it will help but it can't hurt.

I take Airborne almost everyday. I figure if nothing else the vitamin C is good for you. Oh, and I like the way it taste. Weird I know.

The chandelier....hmmm....well my DW was doing a tasting at a winery in Comfort, TX and their chandelier caught her eye. Christy is a great "lover of the grape juice". I can still hear her voice, "Honey, I would really like one of those. I know you can figure out how to make one." My first thought was to go up and ask the guy upfront "How much?" But my engineering mind kicked in and said, "I can take some pictures and recreate this." (What was I thinking!!)

I then had to hunt for a French, Wine Bottle drying rack. Christy's mom and I were at a HUGE antique sale in Central Texas and I found, for $250 (yikes), a galvanized French, wine bottle drying rack that was 3feet taller than the one we had seen in Comfort,TX.

So I had the structure, now I need bottles and lights. Christy's job was getting bottles. Christy was loopy for months. Actually, since she is from the Texas Wine Country (Hill Country), she was able to procure many of the bottles we needed from relatives and from her Mother's B&B (the customers leave their wine bottles on a very tall shelf in the Kitchen).

I had hang a 600lb test chain in the attic and attach it to the beams (with a safety rope) So I hoisted it up where the bottom is 12 feel above the floor. (we have a 22 foot tall entry hall). I then had to tie it into the electric and put christmas lights in all 150 bottles (I only lost one to the tile below). I also put rope lights around every rung.

The whole thing weighs between 400 and 500lbs and I have a set of double pulleys in the attic so I can lower it to change bottles or lights.

Wow the one you made looks way better than the winery chandelier. What a great Job! That is Awesome!

John and I went to a friend's wedding 11 years ago on this date as well.
I still have the wedding invite as it was so neat!
It was a poem!

OUR HALLOWEEN WEDDING
When the temple of love's gates open at seven.
You'll think you've died and gone to....
A seat is reserved with you in mind.
Don't miss the show. It's one of a kind.
But first help yourself to the witches brew.
Spirits will be served at the bar too.
After our marrage vows have been heard.
We'll toast our wedding on a night most absurd.
Then sink your fangs into the buffet spread- A dead cold buffet
Complete with servered head.
And when you are done and had your fill
It's time to mingle, dance and chill.
Dance on a spot at the right time of night
We'll give you a prize (and maybe a fright!)
Pose for a picture in our gallery of ghouls
Bring your camera- there are no rules
And because we are celebrating halloween
dress in costume and make us scream!
But if costume wear is much too scary
Please wear black for Lorraine & Larry!

That was a pretty cool wedding invite. It sounded like it was a fun reception.

I'm not sure that DIS Captain equates to Maritime Captain, but its worth a shot...

Good Afternoon! I am having a blah day today. Not sure why. Probably the rain we have had for the last week. Hoping tomorrow is better.

Hope you feel better Brandie!

This is the first year I have no disney costumes for my kids. Hallie is a Goth Zombie princess and Tyson is Scooby Doo(with bite marks on his face)

That is horrible irony. Is he doing okay?

Slow thread today! I'm doing the unthinkable (quoting myself), in hopes for more feedback on my question asked earlier! (Thanks Jen for your answer.)

He is doing really good. He went to Hallie's school yesterday for her Halloween party and was showing all the girls his owie. He loves the ladies!

 

[jeanigor]

Perhaps suggest them as friends to each other, via FB. Since you probably speak to your co-worker from time to time, if she asks, just say exactly what you told us. That you think they have some things in common and woudl get along.

Props to him!! Knowing how to work it already!! Heart breaker in the making.

Is the guy from your area? If so, I would probably ask the coworker first if she was interested. Women tend to be more picky then men, sorry fellas.Then send the friend suggestion to the guy.
