Most Expensive / Moist Exhausting Continued - Final thoughts and wrap-up

[All7OfUs]

You need to attach one of those wallet-chains to yours!

But you're right, I don't remember "feeling" that drink too much.

OH, that'd be quite a sight!

I was going to ask about that. I swear it's a save money conspiracy.

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

if Im going to be honest, and I do try not to lie all that often, I've gotten like 4 in my "Disney life" (which is since 2009) - 2 via a postcard in the snall mail and 2 via email.....

you stinker.

Well, it was a tough choice: go with a rhyme that refers to underpants, or go with one about beaver butt. In the end, (no pun intended), I figured I couldn't lose either way.

you could have added to your chosen title, i see london i see france, marv has dirty underpants.


i dont think he will catch that since he isnt around these parts much.

Now why didn't I think of that? You're genius Dan!

i always thought that was implied but thanks for typing it.

I will let you I on a little secret I found out if you keep it quiet OK?


Go onto the Disney website and "plan" and save a vaction. Order the planning video as well, either at the same time or on a different vist.

Usually those things sometimes yield a pin code. At least that's how I got mine.

ahh very wise there....i will try that next year for sure.

Since A and B were 1st timers, I did order the video for them and I have gotten a pin code specifically tagged to them. I got them since I used my email but it had their address on it because I had it sent to them.

I've found that I consistently get pin codes and offers soon after my trips where I stay at a WDW resort on-site. Make sure they have your email address on file.

After poking around on the internet a little bit....I put in an order with these folks in Richardson Texas:

colorenlargement.com

They can do some really odd sizes, which my World Showcase photo definitely is. I only ordered a print of the World Showcase photo to see how it turns out. It's a little pricey, so it feels like a gamble. Plus, I have no idea what I'm going to do with it once I get it. I just want to see it!

I ordered it 56 inches wide, by 11 inches tall. Even at that, I think I'll have some white area along the top or bottom (or both). But I'm hoping that it's big enough that some of the detail can be seen.

I'll let you know how it turns out!

COOL!

The photo you posted has a Width to Height ratio of 8.66 to 1.

At 56 inches wide, your photo will be 6.5 inches tall if they maintain the aspect ratio. (Which one hopes they will.) That would give you about 2 and a quarter inches of white space above and below.

To take up the full 11 inches, you would need a photo 11 inches high by 95.25 inches wide.

You'll have to let us know how it looks once you get it in.

HOW on Earth did I miss the start of part II??

...Going back to catch up...

 

[glennbo123]

OH, that'd be quite a sight!

It'd probably even be worthy of a picture in somebody's trip report.

I was going to ask about that. I swear it's a save money conspiracy.

I hope not, but it probably is.

you could have added to your chosen title, i see london i see france, marv has dirty underpants.

Oh yeah, that's better.

i dont think he will catch that since he isnt around these parts much.

But it's like tempting a lion with a great big hunk of meat.

i always thought that was implied but thanks for typing it.

Only us other geniuses picked up that it was implied.

ahh very wise there....i will try that next year for sure.

Me too.

I've found that I consistently get pin codes and offers soon after my trips where I stay at a WDW resort on-site. Make sure they have your email address on file.

But afterwards....is a little too late. I think I'm going to do some planning on their website, order a map, check the mail.

I did some figurin' of my own, but it was the Capt. Kirk version whereas yours is the Mr. Spock version.

I thought it would be about 6 inches high at 56 inches wide, but 11 inches is the smallest height they offer. I thought about going to 72 inches, but it would have been over $20 more.

By the way, I got an e-mail today that it has shipped. I ordered it on Saturday.

Sorry about that...we've missed you Kelly! Just use the links to go through the chapters, they're pretty short. I'm glad you found us!

I will DEFINITELY keep that in mind.

He wont know cuz he's never here !!!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Hmmm, I thought I posted a couple of days ago, but don't see it. I usually find myself catching up and posting at midnight, and the DIS goes down about that time - I need to type faster!

Loved the update and your pics! It will be fun to see how your order turns out! Looks like you really enjoyed your slushy!

Hey, I didn't say anything about Spock's underwear! Just Spock, generically.

Actually with Marv being absent sooo much I declare it
PICK ON MARV MONTH!!!!

No, too much of this month is gone already. Wait until April 1st. (Which seems appropriate anyway.)

Don't you hate that? I was finishing up some replies the other day, and I had Photobucket open in another window. It got hung up trying to load some advertising video or something, and Internet Explorer shut down, including my window with the replies I had just typed out.

Thanks! Oh, I did, I did!

For crying out loud...I forgot to subscribe too... *sigh*

I swear, I'm here for real! AND caught up!


...my brother is really into French everything. He bought a baret (hat thingy) at Epcot's France one year and they made him Frenchman for a day. He thought it was awesome...he was also like, 20 at the time.

See, that wasn't too bad. (The slowness of my updates helps. )

When I was reading that I was picturing someone about Marlene's age.

Hey, you wanna hear my French Elvis impression?

<with curled lip> "Merci. Merci beaucoup."

Just stopping by to say hi and that I am indeed still following along... just in spirit

I hate when that happens. If it happend twice I usually just bite it and restart the computer to clear out whatever demon is causing an issue.


I have learned though when the screen goes blank or says I have a fatal error after I hit submit reply it usually goes through.

PB has been having some issues lately.

Same here- just hit reply again and 9/10 it'll go through. ANd every once in a while, you'll have to just suck it up and start over. Of course, those will be the ones that you've multi-quoted 10 folks on, and have written really spot on, witty replies for.

I'm either punchy tonight, or that's actually funny We'll go with actually funny

Yo! I know you are. I was recently thinking though, that I hadn't heard from you in a while. But I figured that you were keeping an eye on the developments here.

I agree, when I see that message after I hit Submit, if I try again it always says that it's a re-post of something I just posted.

My work computer has an outdated version of Internet Explorer and it doesn't get along well with Photobucket. It has trouble loading the advertisements and sometimes crashes.

Right! Well, at least in my opinion they were.

I agree, let's go with actually funny. Although I bet a lot of people on here would accuse you of being punchy tonight.
