OK, as far as the FO thing, I'll have to re-read this in the morning after some beauty sleep, cause right now I still don't get it. I'll blame it on a long week... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

ETA, I see what you mean now, sorry, slow tonight!

As for St.Helen's. We live about 2 blocks away from it. We have many friends that are members there. It is a Small World After All... I was actually there once for a funeral of a very good friend in 1998. Who knows, maybe we have crossed paths...

Don't give up. Here's another way to explain it.
If you look back at the top of this page you will see that you had the first post of this page (which is #16). You would then have had to post again right after to claim that first (#16) post as a F.O.(First On the page), before anyone else posted. Just a silly game.

I got it now, thanks... probably time for some sleep for me.

In fact some people get soo carried away with trying to get an F.O. they will realize they are close to closing a page they then post until the page ends and begin a new page with the first post on the new page. Cheating is a better way of saying it.

I spelled "almost" wrong in the previous post. Sorry about that. The brain plays tricks with the fingers at this time of night.

Good night from here. Have fun on the egg hunt. The DW and I are off early for a care oil change and inspection in Victor, Van Bortel.

I think we may have another page coming up. You will see the F.O. when you get back on line tomorrow.

Ill check in tomorrow to see if you did the same and saw the F.O. in real life.

 

[Morsel]

I'm claiming my F.O.!!!!!
The F.O. was for the first post on this page, post #31. Nobody posted before this claim to the F.O., I hope.

Chris

 

[MickeyMomOfThree]

So now I say FO, huh? Have a good night!

 

[MickeyMomOfThree]

OH, so close, but you beat me! Roadrunner is running slow tonight!

 

[Morsel]

You were close in preventing me from the F.O. Thanks for staying with it. Got to go for now.

Just remember, only the originator of the first post on a page can try to claim the F.O.. Anyone can try to prevent that claim by being the second post on that page.
See, one can always learn something new on the Dis boards.

We are not originally from NY and when we first moved here we moved to Fort Drum (Watertown). When we moved to Rochester I couldn't get myself to call it upstate. I mean, in relation to NYC yes we are upstate, but compared to Watertown, not so mcuh, so that is why we always say we are from Western NY.

We lived an hour from Watertown. It's really gotten big in the last few years! Rochester is nice - we went there last year when my dad had a business meeting there. It is way too far from WDW though!

 

[MickeyMomOfThree]

We haven't been back to Watertown in 12 years, but I have heard it's pretty booming compared to when we lived there.

Rochester is a mere 20 hour drive to Disney, we make the trip every other year. I'd love to be closer, but we are already 8 hours from my parents, can't go much further or we'd never see them. They don't fly and we can't afford to. Honestly though, we don't mind the drive, just wih we could do it more often!
