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

[NancyIL]

I've been feeling kinda bleh myself today. Maybe I should try chocolate cake therapy too!

- Bill

I'd skip the cake and just eat the chocolate.

 

[pal-mickey]

I think chocolate can cure almost everything!

Wiser words have never been spoken! Now I need to go raid the kids' stash.

I just get tired of the cool kids comments. Yes, for the most part we all get along. We've had the opportunity to really bond with some people face to face (MF, 1.0), the phone, or via facebook. I am looking forward to seeing friends and I am looking forward to meeting new ones. But I am human. I don't like everyone, and if they don't like me, well I really don't care. At the end of the day, I just try to be polite. But I will call you out if I think you are out of line.

<-----------is glad she missed the latest drama and wonders how many identities certain individuals actually have here on the DIS, how they manage it, and why it's worth so much effort on their part to be so negative?

Guess I'm a "groupie" and never even knew it. Cool.

Paul, feel free to try to offend me all you want. My skin is think (as is my head). We are looking forward to seeing everyone also! Just let what others say roll off your skin.

Umm....is she taking my spot on the couch? But seriously, I'd rather see Jennie! Shes a gem!



Actually you know, I sometime enjoy a good verbal sparring and could care less if I get called on it! Although I do enjoy a good double entandre to get a thread shut down more!! I'd kill to see what alex suggested though, lets see if we can let a sorry worthless thread like that just go away without commenting at all. RISE UP PODCAST BOARD! ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!!



I'm not apologizing either, in fact I was a bit taken back that it was expected for anyone to apologize to the OP. If the OP had stopped at calling the podcast negative the thread would have been harmless.



You? Call out? no way have been on the business end of that before

Paul, feel free to post whatever you like on this thread. I think I speak for all of us when I say you are a valued member of this community and that alone pretty much gives you the right to say what you want. The reality is the only way the world changes in when people push the envelope of what is acceptable.


Hope you can at least push the button, since TSM is the only format in which I hold a hope of kickin' your butt.

Hmmm....I wonder if I can start giving stuff away and acquire my own groupies?

To tell you the truth, I was put off by Pete's comments in that ridiculous thread more than anything else. I couldn't disagree more with his take on the situation. I'm not getting sucked into those threads anymore.

Paul go to bed! No grumpy posts.

 

[kimisabella]

Paul go to bed!

Can't go to bed now - the Yankee game is on!

 

[Launchpad11B]

Ok Paul, lets talk about this finger of yours again. Any chance you can play on the handicap car? Could you push a button or however the handicap car is equipped?

If they have a car I can use then I'll use it. Do you have any info on such a car? If you do, pass it on!

 

[cocowum]

If they have a car I can use then I'll use it. Do you have any info on such a car? If you do, pass it on!

You know you're not going to use a special car. Rub some dirt on that broken finger and kick butt!

I'll look and get back to you.

The attraction has customized cars for special needs riders. Reader Beth Floro notes: The back of the vehicle folds into a ramp -- 2/3 of the seat rolls out so that a wheelchair or power chair can go in (no scooters - too heavy). The padded lap bar is replaced with a different one, and a seat belt is added. The gun has both the regular pull-string AND a button on top (for those who can't pull a string). The button fires MUCH faster than the pull string. There is a button on all cars to turn on Closed Captioning -- your score screen will show the ride audio (but you won't see it because you're shooting stuff!). The downside? It takes a long time to convert the special car. In my opinion, they should stop using these (there are two) for regular seating and keep them "open" for wheelchairs -- I believe there will be enough wheel traffic to keep them in use. Here are a few photos of the wheelchair loading area:

Let it be known, any use of the button will go down with an "asterisk"

It depends on how the hand is doing at the time. Honestly though, I could be in a full body cast and still not use the special needs car. I'm an idiot like that.

Can't you just use your good fingered hand to pull the string. I did that last year when my dominate arm got sore from over use playing the game during TSM.

Here are some pics from last night at my house...some of the decorations inside:

The pumpkins...note the not so Hidden Mickeys via my own drill handiwork (proud of them!) and the real artistry by DH:

Our cat Bootsie, hiding in the basement from all the commotion:

Our niece, rockin' the WonderWoman costume - she is normally a little red haired girl, so the transformation was something!:

This was my first photo post, so I hope the pics aren't too big! Took me a couple of tries to get it right.

Update: since I can't seem to make the pics show up , here are the links:

He'd rather use his bad hand and get a higher score. He won't notice the pain until after he's done playing.

LOL...I was gonna say "Get a Chat Room" but I wasn't sure how it would be taken coming from someone who is just starting to meet folks on here.

You've been around enough to tease Paul and Alicia
