And What and I Don't Know (third base) Sorry I couldn't resist!

I didn't think you youngsters were old enough to remember that A&C sketch!!
Aunt Michele

[edit] The sketch
The names given in the routine for the players at each position are:

First Base: Who
Second Base: What
Third base: I Don't Know
Left field: Why
Center Field: Because
Pitcher: Tomorrow
Catcher: Today
Shortstop: I Don't Give a Darn! (at other times the phrase was stated as "I Don't Care" or "I Don't Give a Damn")

 

[NHdisneylover]

Not only do I know that skit, Marika and Rio LOVE it and break into the routine all the time It is about the only baseball related anything any of us knows

Well I promised to give an update on my order for t-shirts and journals that were ordered on 10/13. My order status is still "Production", and I haven't received any emails with concern for copyright infringement. So my fingers are still crossed!

Keep us posted and hopefully when I have the funds to order next spring we will still be able to. I can't wait to get my shirt. Lois

So are you packed yet ?

 

[lynnemcb]

Wish i was packing. After I posted to say we would be joining you on the cruise i spoke to a friend whose a school teacher who said that our Autumn school holidays are a week later next year (not at the time of the cruise|). Have checked with education department and thats true so looks like we wont be joining you any more. Was already taking my daughter out of school for a couple of days for travelling to Florida and cant justify taking her out for a full week and a half.

So looks like back to the drawing board - going to contact Disney this weekend and see whats available the next week - dont know how that will work out financially though.

Enjoy yourselves and hopefully I'll be posting on another meet thread soon

Just to let you know a few of us are booked the next week two if you are going that week it is the buccaneer thread

Oh Lynne...I'm so sorry you guys will not be with us!!! I am hopeful that you'll still have an opportunity to select another date, however. It is completely understandable. So work on getting a new ticker date to make you feel better!

 

[Buckeye Gal]

Drea, I hope you don't mind me sharing this.....

I was reading a trip report which Drea had replied to. Someone posted after her with the following comment about her signature block....

Hi

Your mickey logo is beautiful design

Scottishwee35

Isn't that cool?!! Others like our logo too!!

 

[Belle1997]

Well I personally think our logo is awesome

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Hello everyone! My router was out for a couple of days - need to catch up! Imagine my surprise when half my siggie was missing I tried to use our logo for the Avatar(?) and I can't get it the right size - any computer savvy people know how to do it? That would take it out of the siggie area.

Brandy and Cyndi: Hope your "babies" are still on the mend!

Lynne, sorry you won't be going with us - I think they have the same cruise the next week - hopefully won't cost too much more.

Kimberly, our "update queen" I can now give you our final plans! Mark and Lindsay won't be joining us Their school schedule is just too hectic next year. I know Myles would have enjoyed playing with all the other 3 yr olds. Since he keeps talking about going to the Big Boat and Mickey Mouse, it was breaking all our hearts, so we booked a suite at the DL Hotel at the end of June So we can switch the conversation and the video - he will still mention the boat, but we'll tell him he's going when he's older - that's one of his favorite phrases lately! "When I'm older, I'll use that hammer." Ryan and Dana and Mason will still be joining us, and Lounge 6080 will still be open! Thanks for keeping track of all of us!

Sorry you will not be joining us and I know you will be missed. However, on a more positive note I am sure there is a cruise for the week of your break and that there are DISERS who will welcome you with open arms. If it is the week of 10/4 that is a regular Western. Janet and I are currently booked. We would love for you to join us. What ever you do I am sure you will have a great time. Lois

For those who are puzzled about the siggy's. They developed new rules that limit the amount of space for each siggy. There is a sticky with the new rule. I had to make some adjustment but managed to get all of mine back in. I am sure we can all figure it out. Hope this info helps. Lois

Please Read - New Signature Guidelines

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From Webmaster Alex:

Our signature rules were written a few years ago. Back then a lot of our posters used dial up connections and the VBulletin software did not have the functionality it does now.
The old rules were difficult to understand and they took a lot of moderator time to enforce. We have developed all new rules that should be much simpler and much easier to enforce automatically.

1. Your signature will be limited in length. The program will do this
automatically and anything over the allowed length will be cut off

Explanation- the biggest complaint we recieve is that signatures are too long and it takes too long to scroll through threads. We are going to start with a height of 250 pixels, you'll see what that means when we roll this out. We may add an additional option so that a signature only appears once per page.

2. You will be limited to a total of 25 images and smilies The program
will handle this automatically

Explanation- That should be PLENTY considering the amount of space

3. All content and links must meet DIS board posting guidelines.
Signature have the same content rules as any post on the boards

Explanation- Pretty obvious I hope, this includes commercial link, links to innapropriate sites, etc etc

4. You may not have a signature that is so wide it causes the page to
expand

Explanation- This is something the software can't control. Basically the only way to do this is to have a really really wide picture. If your signature means people with a normal resolution monitor need to scroll from side to side you'll be told to remove the picture causing the issue

5. We reserve the right to remove or modify signatures that cause
issues with the boards or slow page loading. Please make sure any images in
your signature are hosted on a reliable site. Any signature that contains
malicious or harmful code will be removed immediately and the poster
sanctioned

Explanation- Most of this should be pretty obvious. One thing people might not realize is that when people complain about the boards being "slow" it may not be us at all. When the boards load a page, if it can't find an image, it can make the boards appear slow.

We will roll this out in a few days, probably Wednesday. You don't need to take any action now, but you probably will want to check your signature after this goes into effect to see how it was affected.
If you have any questions on this please post on this thread on the tech support board, I will monitor those.

The Webmasters believe that these new, simplified rules will make the boards a better place for our posters and moderators.
Thank you for being a DIS boards member!

Alex
