Hi, miss you guys. Well, we had to admit Frank (DFIL) back into the hospital this morning. I am sitting at his bedside now typing on the bberry. He has a very sick stomach and a high fever. They think it is his gall bladder. While in the emergency room he got the worst case of the hiccups and they have given some drugs but he still has the hiccups.

His roommate is crazy. He is screaming and yelling all kinds of crazy stuff. He looks like he is very old and very sick. He should be in a private room. The nurse said they are trying to get an order for meds to calm him. Oh what a nightmare.
Lisa

Lisa, and prayers for you and Frank.

It was someone (an unnamed Canadian) who turned me on to the Chumby.

It was love at first site for me. It has everything going for it:

• It's electronic
• It's Internet enabled
• It has wifi
• It's cute
• It's S Q U I S H Y

I knew almost at once I HAD to have one.

• It will replace a creaking old radio in my kitchen.
• I am planning to stream radio through it (NPR of course).
• Use it as a clock.
• Stream iTunes through it.
• Have it display the weather.
• Have it display my trip countdown.
• Have it cycle through photos in it's spare time acting as an electronic picture frame.

One has to name a Chumby. You assign it a name when you register it with on the Chumby network (the name can always be changed).

So many gadgets I want. Now I have to add one to the list.

Here's a ? for the computer/techie/electronics gurus on here...

I am looking to get a piece of equipment that will allow me to transfer my cassettes (admit it...we all have those) to cds....can anyone help me???? (without breaking the bank)

Monica, they make such a device for record albums . . . a turntable with a USB output.

Here's one for cassettes for $150

Hang in there Lisa!

yes the s5....

The pictures are great!

Give it a chance V. I looked at one at Best Buy the other day when you were all talking about it, and it looked like a solid camera. Just take some time to get used to it.

For all of those in the lifebaots with me, I thought you would like to see our accomodations -

Looks pretty plush to me!

I never pictured them with a roof.

This isn't so bad a place....I'll keep my cat 4 room and you're invited any time to enjoy the verdana and to waive to the other lifeboaters.

 

[lillygator]

Lisa - hope you are ok and Frank is doing well.

I am watching an old/new Brothers and Sisters I missed.....love this show.

 

[lillygator]

hey if I can get a boat MAN, in a skimpy outfit with a hot bod....but if so, I'll give up my room and take a life boat!!!!!!

 

[Jhalkias]

I loved her hair, she seems more grown up now!

Amy came back and Sophia got her hair cut too. Not quite as short as Samantha's just a bit longer. I liked the long hair too, but I guess it is a growing up thing.

When we were in port once - forget where, we saw Marco driving one around just like that. They have to do drills when in port from time to time.

Make it a skimpy bikini and female instead, and I may trade down.

If you don't tell Amy, I won't tell John.

 

[nskjerven]

So does Robert. He is also the guy that thinks we have "Family Style" dining around our table each night and he orders at least 2 appetizers and a minimum of 2 entrees each night!

what time and what table, I like this man...

 

[nskjerven]

Doug and I would like to introduce Mickey's Mouse better known as Mickey. He came home today and right now is telling us in no uncertain terms that we should be paying attention to him and not the Dis. The cats aren't quite sure what to make of him.

Carol

he is adorable, nice name...

 

[lillygator]

john2 had long hair too!

 

[lillygator]

notice the princess backpack??? such a good go with the flow guy!

 

[pjpoohbear]

john2 had long hair too!

And a pink and purple backpack too.

 

[nskjerven]

Of course we can do the Photo Op.

I'm checking to see if Sukie and I can have our appearance times posted in the Navigator along with the other characters.

well if you are going that far then you must include Wilson, he will also stand up in that crowd

I have decided to name my Chumby, "Mrs. Bennett."

On another note .... I was asked what the toaster and coffee maker were named. They are not named ... at the moment .....

You have though given me a very good idea.

I think Margaret would suit the coffee maker and Ethel might suit the toaster.

"Damn it Ethel! You burned the toast! Again! I swear, if you don't shape up soon, I'm going to dump you and start cruising Target to pickup someone else!"

LOVE IT! I tell ya I'd be getting the Chumby, if I didn't have an ihome with my ipod in it. yes I don't take it anywhere it just sits in it's home. it's also a clock, but the Chumby has alot of nice features...I'm sure when I see it I'll have to buy it.

Monica,

I would try Monoprice (www.monoprice.com). They are the BEST and CHEAPEST source for this kind of stuff. I recently needed HDMI cables which are about $50+ at Best Buy, $40+ at Target.

A friend in Canada turned me onto Monoprice (I have lots of friends in Canada).

I bought them through Monoprice for about $5.50!

I did find the following on their site:

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...d=1031105&p_id=1614&seq=1&format=1#largeimage

It's about $19.00

You might want to call Monoprice and see if this will do what you want.

It was mclovin...such a clever use of star friends!

Do you have a clearer view of my warped sense of humor?

I can totally appreciate your sense of humor. Have you ever seen the movie Eurotrip? Matt Damon has a cameo in the movie - the main character's girlfriend is cheating on him with Matt Damon! Matt sings a song called Scotty Doesn't Know - and it ends up being a running joke through out movie.
