Innocent?? Doogie??

The REST of the band was concentrating on the music, only you were swayed by the girls. . . tsk tsk. . . a much too common story I fear

Sorry John, no advice here.
oh yes I do. . .

Hey doogie
unless you have it on your camera......

Teresa- Julia and i were out to dinner, nice evening
i had wine Julia had two "pain killers"
Then we picked up DS from the skateboard park(indoor)

remember this term from college---"buzz killer'

sigh

 

[LAMPSKIES]

O.K., I remember "tripping" up the stairs to get on stage and jammin' I can't believe I missed that.....the reason I like St. Maarteen so much!!!

O.K. John and Julia, come sit on my couch.........what's goin' on?

 

[the5J's]

i remember a Bill Cosby Joke line:
"may your children grow up to be just like you"
Well it is sorta like that. But between Julia and i, we think we were more mature at the same age. ya know what i mean?

This just confirms why i love the Mouse soo much, i want to be a kid again
It pains me that my kid is making the "mistakes" and i can help him. I am "just an old guy and i don't understand"

Hey!
i just got finished playing 4 games of killer racquetball, tomorrow i'm going skiing, and my hero is a mouse....i don't think i'm old!

everyone must have had a busy weekend -- i found us on PAGE TWO

we spent the afternoon with AEG and my Dad - they graciously offered to take us to the play Peter Pan - with Cathy Rigby. It was fabulous

My youngest DD got a chill with she sprinkled her pixie dust for the first time -- i LOVED Captain Hook

anyhoo -- hope everyone had a relaxing restful weekend. Also -- for those who visit our thread on WISH board for our weight loss challenge for the cruise -- mom and I are really getting serious tomorrow - 'nuff badness over the weekend

Just checkin in after a weekend of watchin DD Hayley play basketball. Had a blast.
Did I see something about Doogie and Innocent in the same sentence? LOL!He does have a great pic from Paradise beach that he "accidentally" took. But I did not see anything from the Go Gos! I missed that one.

John and Julia- power to ya with the teen problem thing. Jeez, if my kids do half the stuff I did, I will not survive....... My pennance is to have two daughters.....

Teresa, any idea when SW will release fares for us?

Gotta go. Sunday nite is poker nite!

John,

No it's not on my camera but etched in my mind. I remember the announcer telling the go-gos to face the curtian and 'show it', they opened up their towels and..."OH MY, THOSE AREN'T HIDDEN MICKEY'S", I thought to myself. I'm sure nobody in the audience could see, but I'm disappointed with the rest of the band. I guess I hadn't had enough to drink?

About your son.. I've had the same discussions with mine... although he's only 11. They're going to make bad decisions and mistakes, as a parent we can't always prevent and protect. I'd love to share with him some of my "stories" (high school and college) but I don't dare. He might think, "it was OK for dad, it's OK for me". We don't want them to think that some of the immature decisions we made as youngsters were the correct ones.

I've told him I'll be his best friend; will always be there for him, but he might not like some of the decisions/disipline I need to make. While the world is a bit more complex than it was 20ys ago, the peer pressure and decision making is much the same. Ok... I'll stop there.. send me a PM if you want more thoughts... Hope your skiiing went well today.

Grammy, Ohmom, I saw your link to the WISH board. I'll add a post...

[silver7]

ooh maybe that ought to be a themed night on the cruise. . True Confessions, or what we dont want our kids to find out what we did in high school (yamaha boy, dont listen!!)

Aw heck we can just find another one of our patented "nobody is sitting in this area lets take it over" specials!!

ps
Bunnies, did you know that the chairs in front of guest services are bolted to the floor?

Just got back from skiing in the Pa. Pocono's

It was sunny and around 34 with a fresh inch on top of the pack. It was snowing much of the day at home. I had to put the plow on and do my duty after diriving a few hours bac home.


What is the water temp at CC this time of year?

This is for you YMCA guys.

Were we blind that day, or what!!!?!!! Probably for the best. Would not have wanted to gawk. Well, maybe a little.

Re the Go Gos, now I know how they beat you guys! That must have been the thunderous applause from Doogie!

[LAMPSKIES]

John, Julia.....knock on wood......haven't had any "issues" with DD (Jessica) since before the sailing....she must now know that "I'm watching".

 

[ICEMANPAD]

We're not looking forward to the headaches of raising a teenager!! It's difficult enough raising a 5 year old!! We had a "conference" with Mason's Kindergarten teacher this past friday. It seems that Mason at age 5 wants to be in charge of the class!! I know, I know "small children = small problems and big children = big problems". That's why is nice to look forward to good times--the Disney Cruise!!

Hi Everyone
Sorry to vent on the DIS
Thanks for the support
DS and i had a great time on the HILL yesterday
i am doing better, can't say that for Jeff, he still gets the 'big air' but having trouble landing
OUCH!
he says he is sore today- he won't wear the wrist protector b/c it isn't cool...
now his wrist is hurting from one of his 'landings'. other than that his attitude changes as much as the weather....actually more than the weather! So it has been good for ......TWO days! celebrate the small accomplishments!

Hey lamps congrats with DD i remember sharing a beer and discussing kids!

Doogie- if i ever say what i did as a kid, it would justify his now and future behavior. I won't take that risk. Other than saying what i have already said before.... I like the Big Hair rock bands, my '70 Cutlass w/350 4br Rocket, and my DW and i dated when we were 15yrs old.....you all can fill in the blanks...
i'll deny them ALL!

John

I agree 100%!!

 

[LAMPSKIES]

I don't even want to think about my "younger years" being passed on thru my kids.....LOL You all have seen me I am "all grown up"!!!! And just think....she says I "embarras her".

 

[LAMPSKIES]

DD has been on "good behavior". She found out I didn't sell my Grand Cherokee when I got the Liberty last August......My uncle came in town and used it and Kim drove the Expedition and I took the jeep home from work to drive......she gets her permit in March.....

Hey John....looks like me and mama are going "on a road trip"! You ever been to Caesars Pocono resorts? Sometime in either the begining of May or June.....I prefer June....Corvette road trip Doogie!!!! Now, where does Kim sit? On the cooler? Here is my delima......if the convertable top is up on the Corvette I can reach into the trunk for a "cold one". If the top is down the top is in the way......have you seen those fishing chairs that have a cooler under them? If Kim just sat on one of those do you think the wind would bee too bad? Seeing as have her face would be over the windshield? Sunglasses would take care of the bugs in her eyes, but she'd DEFINATELY have to brush her teeth every time we stopped!!!! LOL

 

[LAMPSKIES]

O.K., so it's a little slow here at work this evening.......all you 04 Turkeyday sailors know me, right? And all you 05 probably have a good idea of what to expect.....nnaaaa, you'll have to see in person.....I'm going to make a new thread on this but I thought I would share this with you guys first...

As most of you know our 11/29/03 Eastern sailing was our "replacement" for the one DCL cancelled 11/30/02 on us (long story). So after a year of waiting and negotiationg with DCL we finally arrived, we were finally going on the Easern!!!! So, we arrive at port after two days at WDW, Thanksgiving and the Friday after......our "dis meet" didn't go so well, Izzinmac didn't predict 50 degrees and windy for the sailaway.....I did find the beer though......So the ship sails and it's time for me to get in vacation mode.....miller lite here I come!!!! (O.K. I already had a few I was just going to pick up the pace) We had a great evening, beers were cold and the air was starting to warm. I went and hung out at Signals and then deck 10 just enjoying the Carribean air. Brad, who sailed with us came strolling by and we went to Diversions and met Pierre.....he was the Mgr. that year. We had a few drinks and watched Kerokee....eventually headed back to the room........did anyone notice how long those halls look at 2 in the morning? LOL!!! And all the rooms look the same!!! Anyways, that's not the funny part.....I hopped in my boxers grabbed a glass of water and slid into bed.....next morning I wake up and reach for the endtable for my glasses and can't find them.....so I figure the slid und the bed......I reach my hand under and feel around a little.......what do I pull out? A Bra!!!!! And IT'S NOT KIMS!!!!! Yep, I turned and looked and yes, I was in the right room......I thought WOW what a night!!!.......Until the last sailing......Doogie, did you say the "gogos" had no bras on after their show?....Hmmmmmmm maybe I was Ron Bon Jovi the year before and just didn't remember.....

 

[LAMPSKIES]

You'd think it was summer or something.....two days in a row of almost no posts......am I boring you....LOL

 

[DOOGIERUNNER]
