GUESS WHO'S COMING TO FREE DINNER, or, Feeding Nebo,,,,completed

[Bee]

Thank you for the mention.

I dont believe my ever after is going to turn out as well as you and Diane. But, I will survive.. I am finding out who I am.. It will be a fantastic journey.

I hope you will write a May report. Consider it my 40th b-day gift. I turn 40 on May 19th.

If you get real bored and you want to read my report.. Go for it. It really isnt as funny as yours.. not even close but it is a somewhat finished report. Click the link.. At the time my husband and I owned a small town bar. PM me if you read it.. would be interesting to know what you thought.

It has been a pleasure getting to "know" you!

You are awesome! Dave Barry has nothing on you.

All my love, Belinda

ok, I told nebo I wasn't going to post. he said his goodbyes and I didn't want to "interfere"... but... gee, golly, gosh (if HE can do the "a"s i.e. aghast, agape and agog; I can do the "g"s) even I'M going to miss the "trip report" nebo. not to mention the clever banter from his groupies, fans, whatever. Harem, if you will. (whatever happened to Hound? )
you guys have been great friends!
ps. if you think nebo is an itinerary/planning freak, you should see the schedule I just made out today for our may trip - color coded. TS in one color, CS in another; parades, fireworks, etc, in a third color. AND the flower power concerts! (speaking of which... see you all on Jamiee's report.)
and I DO think he could write for a living. he can sure "turn a phrase", just as he turned my head, more than once, and still does! love you, honey!

 

[Suzflee]

Wow - what you wrote at the beginning about your brain being on the TR even when your fingers weren't on the keyboard is so true.

I am sad to see it end as well so I will add my name to the list of fans that would love to see a May TR. Kids will be out of school in June, little more free time, won't feel guilty if the frig light shines a little brighter 'cuz they can just graze on their own

It's the little things in life that make a difference and you, my non-Mac friend, see the little things.

In the words of Jimmy B, there are a lot less insane people hovering around their computers thanks to you and your ability to keep us laughing.

Here's to a smooth sailing trip in May and that your well floweth over

A "Thank you" doesn't seem adequate so I will ask my sisters to join me in a dance in your honor!

[tiggerwannabe]

Somehow I knew you were the brains behind the adventure Diane

Your itinerary sounds just like my spreadsheet! There's alot that goes into these adventures, behind the scenes stuff that can be totally ready by the time you head out on your trip. Kinda like planning a wedding, the day of the event, alls I want to do is enjoy it~

I pray you guys write another report, as part of the official Harem, I would miss both of you if I don't get antoher report from your adventures.

Yes, drama makes for a good story, but as Nebo has so proudly taught Kay...when there is none, make something up!

I guess I'm headed over to Jaime's pretrippie to get my fill til May...

TTFN


LY all MI~

colleen.

 

[winkers]

Nebo, NOOOOOOOOO! It can't be over! You have to do a may trip report! Hury, start your pre trip right now!!! No, I mean it, stop reading this and go start a pre trippie!...............................you're just like my kids, don't listen to a thing I say! I've loved reading your report and my dh has gotten sucked in along the way too. Mostly because I'd start laughing and he'd come in to ask what I'm laughing about and then I'd have to read it to him.............................................................you get the idea. I know, I'm rambling because I just don't want it to be over. If you'd like to get back at me for my poking fun at you on occasion, you can make fun of me on my pre trip..........................shameless little plug................

 

[luvhockey]

Thanks for the great evenings of reading after the kids were in bed. You have a great style and hopefully we'll get another trippy after the May adventures. I'm not saying I want you to get hurt or anything but if that's the only way you can write another ... then, well .... umm ... ok, stay safe I guess.
Continue revelling in your Bears.
Angela

 

[Philadisney]

A fine trip report, Nebo! Thanks for introducing us to all the interesting characters you met on your journey through WDW. I'm sad to see it end!

 

[SamanthaL]

It's been great! I have a feeling we may see you in May. Maybe?
Have a great trip and don't break anything just for us.

 

[lexmelinda]

Hear that Nebo? we need a pre-trip report, talking about the thinking therefore you tink stuff!!

Marita is right! Suggested title for the upcoming pre-trip report:

THINK BEFORE YOU TINK: THE RETURN OF NEBO & SMIDGY

Any possibility you could start by Thursday?

 

[tiggerbell]

I don't think you've allowed to stop writing trip reports unless you've spotted Devine in AK...

I think that's a Dis rule, sorry nebo, looks like you're stuck for at least one more report!

DEVINE OR DIE TRYING!

 

[nebo]

Hello
Salutations!

Can't remember if that's from Stuart's Little or Charlotte's Web.

Anyway.

Crap.

Ok, now double crap, I'm talking like Mel now.

And I haven't looked at her report in 5 months.

This trip writing thing is harder to turn off than I thought it would.

Yep. "Hi, my name is Steve, and I'm a Disneytripreportholic."

(all of you guys

"HI, Steve"

I haven't even finished and I already miss it.

What's wrong with me?

I'm a fiftytwo year old, highly intelligent, levelheaded, handsome, stud of a guy.


Well, I am 52 anyway.

And I can't wait to get back there. Right now, I NEED it. Badly. Down to four days a week at work now, and never sure if the bank is going to cover the paychecks. We are so far in the red at work. Can I try my new carreer line on you now? Practice?

Would you like fries with that?

Would YOU like fries with that?

(think Joey)
How YOU liking fries with that?

Whatcha think?

No, honestly, don't worry about us.
I'm like a sloth, or a bat.
I always land on my feet.

Well, foot.

As you can all tell by now, I am not really this illiterate, stupid , machinist that I have made myself out to be.

I"m much dumbber.

And, as you can all tell, I screwed up again.

And probably will again before this post is done, too.

Philadisney, I forgot about you but I remember you used to be a reg.
Thanks for hanging on. And the encouragement.

And MMEB144, thanks, you also made me feel good. A few times.



(um Winkers, just sit there, not what I meant, Geesh!)


Jaime, thanks, when you gonna learn to spell your name right?
And remember, it's "Geesh". Honest, look it up. Everybody, remember, miss Tiggerbell has a trip report coming up in May, just in case you haven't heard.

Soonergirl, I"m sorry, can't believe I missed you, you have added a lot at the end of this report. My bad.

(ok, somebody slap me now for saying "MY Bad")

And Angela, little Blues fan, again, my ba,,,, ahem, I have been extremely negligent in not including you in the final act of this ubiquitous remonstration of my life. (boy, wish I knew what I just said.)
Thank you very much, hockeygirl, you have helped make this entertaining more than a few times.

Special Kay: I can't say thanks enough for you, even your farewell here was clever and well thought out.
I think it would be scary if we were ever to meet at a Dis meet. We'd probably be yakking by a pool till it was early entry time. Hugs

Melinda, Lexmelinda, Lexluthor, YOU are the sweetest thing. We both loved what you said, and I thank you so much for making me smile everytime I see a Melinda post.

Ok, now, well, on the pre trip report? No, I"m not going to do that. I've already talked a bunch about the upcoming trip, and I just think it would end up needless babbling. I am wondering something though, our next trip is a combo with the evil empire first, (588-2300) , and I hate leaving that part out of the report. Can I? Or would Oh Mari come over and beat me senseless? The Universal trip reports threads are a graveyard, not going there.

As I started this post, yes, I do like doing this, and I haven't ruled out a May trip report. We'll see how it goes.
If I'm lucky they will lose our reservations and we'll end up at the ALL STAR SPORTS resort, I will come down with the 24 hour Anthrax, and Diane will find out she's pregnant.
It will be a miracle.

Ok, scratch that last one,
That's not even funny!!!!!!!!!

Speaking of miracles, with all the sightings lately of the Virgin Mary on everything from tree trunks to pizza, to the bottom of a turtle,to water stains on a ceiling, does it mean anything that I have recently found Mary Magdalenes initials carved on pieces of a whole bunch of candies?

Thanks for all the kind words everyone, we both have appreciated them.
and sat here together last night reading them. Hope you all have many nice trips left in you, and maybe we'll be back together here come late May, early June.
Steve and Dobby

heh

heh

 

[tiggerwannabe]

Yes Please!

I would encourage you to come back and tell us about the WHOLE trip!!

Ok, scratch that last one,
That's not even funny!!!!!!!!!

Well, almost the whole trip



Yay!!! Nebo and Smidgy are coming back!

I'll be waiting over on Jaime's thread

 

[tiggerbell]

(think Joey)
How YOU liking fries with that?

Everybody, remember, miss Tiggerbell has a trip report coming up in May, just in case you haven't heard.

I'll be waiting over on Jaime's thread

OK - I'll play, I have no pride...

Come on down, people - I've got lapu lapu's and zebra domes and dole whips and pomegranite kirs for everyone!!! (As soon as I learn how to spell "pomegranite", shouldn't be that hard!!! )

And, in my trip report - you are all on the free dining plan!

On another subject - did anyone else notice nebo posted BEFORE Dancing with the Stars came on tonight???

 

[TiggerandTink]

Well I have to jump in and say that I too am sorry to see this TR come to an end. I have been more of a lurker lately but have still tried to keep up and always knew that Thursday evening there would be a GREAT story waiting for me. I hope you do decided to write a report for your May trip (see even I know you'll be going, you love it too much to stay away!) And Nebo, you could even make an "easy peasy, lemon squeezy" trip into a terrific tale! I love your style.

THANKS!!!!!

Not worried....OK, maybe a little worried. Any possibilities. I really think you should start work on "Uncle Steve's Disney Bathroom Reader."

Melinda, Lexmelinda, Lexluthor, YOU are the sweetest thing. We both loved what you said, and I thank you so much for making me smile everytime I see a Melinda post.

Ok, now, well, on the pre trip report? No, I"m not going to do that. I've already talked a bunch about the upcoming trip, and I just think it would end up needless babbling.

Um....Steve? Just sayin....we enjoy your needless babbling. And I'm nosey and wanna know what's on the spreadsheet. Really!

As I started this post, yes, I do like doing this, and I haven't ruled out a May trip report. We'll see how it goes.
If I'm lucky they will lose our reservations and we'll end up at the ALL STAR SPORTS resort, I will come down with the 24 hour Anthrax, and Diane will find out she's pregnant.

That would be some good material

Hope you all have many nice trips left in you, and maybe we'll be back together here come late May, early June.

Would a cash offer help? I've got 3 bucks!

Love ya, love your wife, love your writing.......gonna miss you.....til May!

That's okay - I've been much more of a lurker, than a participator (I can't believe you said 'my bad' )

If I'm lucky they will lose our reservations and we'll end up at the ALL STAR SPORTS resort, I will come down with the 24 hour Anthrax, and Diane will find out she's pregnant.

Let's hope not!! Of course, if that is what it's going to take to get you to write another TR, I'm all for it


Thanks for sharing your trip with us, nebo & smidgy - I've enjoyed every minute of it!

 

[missmun52]

I have to say that I really loved your trip report. I have been reading it for some time now and think your reports are so funny! It is really a favorite of mine; you’re a wonderful trip reporter (is that grammatically correct?)

I hope that you do a May report as I am already looking forward to it.

I am hoping that free dining will be announced on the 12th like we have all been reading , so that you can take your second trip this year, hopefully…….. I sure use hope a lot don’t I, anyway…….. a week earlier than planned so that maybe I can meet both you and your lovely DW. I am all booked for 9/1 - 9/8 but will extend it one night if free dining happens .

Hello

The things you come up with!!!! I'll never look at M&M's the same! (that is what you meant isn't it???) I can only imagine how funny your trip report or um pregnancy report would be.

 

[SamanthaL]

Diane maybe you should start taking the prenatals now just to be on the safe side. Folic acid is very important to a woman in your condition.
