May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves...May 2008 Repo Thread...Part 8

kinda creepy that I did that huh? I think (not sure if this is true) that once you post a picture a person can quote it and it will show you the link to their photobucket account. With yours I saw the link in the first post you tried and could tell that it had more stuff in it that didn't need to be there and that was why it wasn't posting correctly. So, I copied and cut some of the stuff, but that didn't exactly work, here is the creepy part, I hit the link and could go to your photobucket account page and see all you pictures Not sure if everyone can do this, I think they can. So be very careful what you post and not personal info of course in photobucket...I'll ask my friend on another thread tomorrow, she is pretty photobucket savvy. She may know how to block others from seeing your stuff. If I find out I'll let ya know. btw, nice pictures on your photo bucket (not that I looked )

For what its worth, Photobucket is inherently NOT secure. Even if you have your photos password protected, once you post one of them, it is relatively easy to see others in the account and there are programs on the net that will help you "hack" others accounts. Part of the problem is 99% of people post sequential numbered photos (e.g. how your camera numbers them). So if someone knows you have photo http://www.photobucket.com/username/IMG_0001.jpg then they can use a program to check for http://www.photobucket.com/username/IMG_0002.jpg, http://www.photobucket.com/username/IMG_0003.jpg, http://www.photobucket.com/username/IMG_0004.jpg even if you have a password on your account, the photos will show. Other sites, like flikr and webphotos?? randomize the display name so you can't do this.

Also, if you don't lock your photobucket, if someone sees your photo name http://www.photobucket.com/username/IMG_0001.jpg then all they need to do is lop off the photo extension "IMG_0001.jpg" to see your entire account at http://www.photobucket.com/username/

So if you have embarrassing photos on photobucket....

It is done!!!!

Nan!!! Molly looks FANTASTIC!!!

I LOVE it! I'm sure she'll feel like her hair is now very light - just remind her to use less shampoo!

What a beautiful girl! And what a beautiful thing to do! I love her new haircut! Connie

Do I understand correctly that you have a Tinkerbell costume?

How could you not wear it to nearly every event on the ship, if for no other reason than to disturb people.

For starts, wear it for the lifeboat drill. Wear it to the pirate party, just to put people off balance. Wear it to the Mexican party sport a French flag.

There are probably 1001 different uses for a Tinkerbell costume.

Molly's new "do" is indeed beautiful.

Did she donate to locks of love - I missed that part if you posted...

Yep

I think we all need copies of Lisa W's and Kelly's spread sheet so we aren't missing anything.

Can I please have a copy of the spreadsheet? I was going to make one from the roll call list on PJ's website, but an excel spreadsheet would sure make my life easier!

I went to Target this morning and actually bought a new swimsuit (2 really). Will try them on tonight (and try not to be too ) and return 1 if not both of them.

They had some shirts that look like they could pass for Mexican wear, so will head back there tonight after work (I only had about 30 min this am-killing time btwn my stop at the post office & work).

I am now going to look at a larger suitcase to take everything in. I think I'm going to have my rolly-polly carry on and my backpack (the lowepro that still needs to be purchased) with me in the terminal. I can always check my rolly polly when flying home if need be.

BTW - RE: Champagne Girls - we HAVE to have the get together----I have gifts!

 

[mishoe01]

Did anyone ever find out if Aunty Brat (Laura) is still on board?

OH! NO! I'd better get rid of those pics of Chuck and me! They are very very scary! Esp. the ones from the TA last year!

I'm at the rolly-polly carry on, because I think someone might have to carry off rolly-polly me at the end of the cruise!!!

Not heard at all. I did send another PM to Ivanova, but guess they don't come here any more. Laura was given a hard time with the post about how she felt the Transatlantic Repo went for her. I wonder if she was upset about that. Otherwise I just can't understand her complete blocking us out when she was so excited and planning everything with the group. The major op and treatment must have had a big impact I realise though.

Did you ever hear back after sending the gifts Monica?

No - so I'm not even 100% sure she got them. I just hope she's ok.

 

[mishoe01]

Look!! Samsonite made a bag just for us DISers....

I know, so do I. Ivanova replied on 9th December and Laura was still planning on being on the cruise then. She is Laura's TA and friend.

Lovely!!!!!!! is it big enough though?!!!

WOW Monica....that is so sweet of you....we will DEFINITELY have the champagne girls tasting/party. At worst, we can order the champagne from DCL onboard.....first option is Karen though. We'll see what we can work out, but we will be having our PARTY!

Had the most wonderful facial this morning with lots of shoulder massage. Pre birthday treat. Going for a back hot stone massage tomorrow and hair colour and cut on Friday. Should be relaxed and half way presentable looking by then!!

The butterfly farm excursion. Does that only go to the butterfly farm, or does it go somewhere else? We would be interested in that excursion if it only did the butterfly farm.


.

It only goes to the farm but I emailed them and they said it is much cheaper to do it on your own ( I think like $6.00 per person) and there is a bus at the port that takes you right to their door ($1.30 per person). If you do go, go early because you will see a butterfly being born.

I'm sooooooooooo Jealous!

Oh and bought a tee shirt and a more dressy top. Still not formal night dressy, but it looks nice. Seen a few items I want to try on when i do my major shopping trip. Dreading the swimsuit buying though as I usually have to try on loads before finding one that does.

Hope yours fit Monica as that is by far the easiest way to buy them.

I have new Sydney pics to share....
