This thread makes me think we should all have "DIS next of kin" who can track us down IRL to let the boards know we're okay. Lol. If anyone ever starts missing me, ask @ronandannette my whereabouts. She has enough of my personal info to find me.

You can run, but you can't hide!!!

 

[RedAngie]

Lookin' good Red! Maybe you ought to PM me your name, SS number, address, phone number, email, computer passwords and bank card pin - in case we ever have to come after you!

Nope. If I ever find the Shrangri-La that Eliza and WillyJ now inhabit, the last thing I'd want is to associate with DIS people.

And in addition to Tipsy, if you're ever looking for me you could always ask @kimblebee, @CdnCarrie, @Magpie, @declansdad, @Teresa Pitman, @lisaviolet, @Disneylover99, @NFLDERS or heck, even @tvguy's Sasketchewan cousins. 'Cause all Canadians know each other - right?

Speaking of people who are missing, I've often wondered what happened to TDC Nala. She was a mod & regular on the restaurant board, then seemed to just disappear. She was always so helpful. I asked another mod, if she knew what happened to her, but she was wondering too. If anyone knows anything about her, please fill us in.

Of course, you do.

All of us Americans are exactly the same, so we should be able to predict what everyone is doing & why they would disappear.

What is this, you want to gang up on me? You trying to start a Canadian war?

Also, you forgot @quandrea. She's Canadian. Come on @ronandannette, how hard is it to remember everybody? There's only, like, 37 of you up there.

Calm down @TipsyTraveler - you and I are still in this together.


Oh, and hi @quandrea - I look forward to meeting the only living Canadian I don't already know.

Of course we do. And if you go missing, I'll be over in no time. After all, I'm just a measley 3400 km drive away.

Fine, you move 4,000 miles away and suddenly you find you've given up your citizenship. Hummph.

Sorry, eh! I didn't mention @Frozen Canuck either but here's hoping you both find your way home soon!

 

[Skywalker]

Hello! Hey, I didn't revoke my Canadian citizenship over here sheesh.

Funnily, I was talking to the person in the office next to mine (I started here (Switzerland) over the summer) and she mentioned that the person who used to be in that office was also Canadian. She started talking about what she (the person in my office before) did and I realised that I did know her! We worked at the same organization in Canada. Then I took a conference call and it turned out that person leading the Canadian organization and I had done our PhDs together (and knew each other well). I was informed that I wasn't helping the "all Canadians know each other stereotype".

LOL. I always love the "Do you know John, he lives in Toronto?"

 

[Colleen27]

I've wondered about Eliza too. I enjoyed her posts and we took a few conversations to PM after or to avoid the points we knew were coming if we continued participating on a thread, but I wasn't around much for a while and when I came back, she was gone. I hope she's off traveling the world and just doesn't have time for us little people, or that she said something highly gratifying and got a time-out that made her decide not to come back.

This thread has me thinking - my husband has a list of e-mails to send should anything happen to me unexpectedly, mostly groups I've been a part of for decades that don't have other members close enough for me to get together with IRL often. The DIS isn't on that list, though, so if I disappear it will remain a mystery.

 

[ronandannette]

Oh of course, Toronto John - the one that works in an office, right? Pretty sure he's the one @SirDuff is talking about.

We went on a Disney cruise a few years ago and we were talking to a couple one night and when they found out we were Canadian they said "Our dinner table mates are Canadian, maybe you know them". We rolled our eyes and laughed but we all got together for a show it turned out we DID know them! They were actually former co-workers of my husbands lol.

 

[Sabeking]

Yeah, I didn't quite understand it myself. I don't know if they discovered at some point that they lived near each other and exchanged info or what. All I remember is that she was going to check on him because everyone was so worried. She never came back here. Someone else had his phone number and tried calling, but he was not returning calls. In that case, I believe Willie gave his number to that person.

I pm'd with Willie for awhile after his mom passed. He was really in a bad place at that time. He was struggling being her caregiver then when she passed I think he felt some guilt. We were able to relate on that because I had lost my mom and was her caregiver. If I understood she was the last of his family and he felt very alone. My last pm to him he never responded back.

 

[dish rag]

I actually know personally one of the Canadians listed. And they are one of the best people one could know.
