Hi all! Arrived at WDW yesterday afternoon after a (thankfully) uneventful drive here Weather is yucky but I am happy

Being at WDW and having yucky weather is always better than being at home with good weather. Glad to hear you had an uneventful drive. Have fun.

 

[Xclusive2WDW]

And the Spartans don't count? Hey, the Michigan coach should be fired,, a great talent like Denard Robinson and he had no idea how to use him!

No the Spartans do not count. . . EVER!!!

 

[monymony3471]

Pull toy is all smidgy's fault! She did it! On purpose! She even parentheticalled asided me and said I'd be dying after she wrote it!

She set me up!

She's the trouble maker!

Not me!

 

[monymony3471]

I can't say I agree with you here.

<----------State Fan

Well at least we are fans of Nebo.

I forgive you (I mean, you've been under a lot of pressure with school and all, you were bound to be confused about something )

And yes we are fans of Nebo (well really Smidgy, but we don't tell Nebo that ) and really Disney is waaaaaaaaaaay more important than sports

 

[Thumper_Man]

There is where T_Man politely disagrees with you.

Have to kibbitz here. The Man of Thump is spot-on. Sports are like breathing. BTW - The Vatican and I are pulling for the Good Catholic Boys of Notre Dame, come Monday night, against those cute Southern Baptists from Alabama (Roll Tide! Explanation of the shout out to the Loyal Opposition - I am obliged to be kind to my dear sister who married a Rebel and ended up in Jackson, Mississippi).

Sheldon is my hero. If you are a good boy, I will sing "Soft Kitty" for you.

 

[Thumper_Man]

Glad to hear everyone had a nice holiday.
Hope everyone has a magical New Year (yeah I stole the Disney line, feel free to roll your eyes)

Your room was amazing. If we ever do Uni out there I will pick your brain for suggestions and tips.

Are you sure about the Mummy being better than Rocking rc? Please someone tell me that the Mummy ride out in Florida is different than the one out here at Universal studios Hollywood. Otherwise I could only shake my head at that one.

Rode the one out here in November and was not very impressed with it. In it's defense, it is a rather small space so they only had so much room to work with. They took out the E.T. ride to make way for the Mummy.
They did recently open a new Transformer's ride that really is great and I hope they put one out in Florida for the folks that don't make it out this way.

Did you not read Lady H's portion of our TR. tsk tsk tsk.

Other than Lady H, you and myself; we're probably the only ones on this TR that have taken a ride on the Mummy over at USH. Might as well start shaking your head. They are some what similar, but a few differences. They are both short rides. You go backwards more at Hollywood, not so much at Orlando. Graphics during the course of the ride are different. It's not bad, but its not great. Lady H said, if they could combine the 2, then it would be an awesome ride. Yes, Dumb Wife said that.

I totally agree with Transformers. Yes they are putting one in Orlando. I may have a few pics of the construction. If it's as good as the one in Hollywood, people are going to love it. Couldn't get dumb wife off the ride. Only ride she's gone on more than twice. If the park didn't close early, she would've gone another 3 or 4 times. Heck she still might on the ride today if I would let her.

 

[Thumper_Man]

mony, mony.. PULL toy, NOT play toy!!!

Pull toy, play toy. Aren't they the same thing? It's a toy and toys are meant to be played with to have fun.

 

[pkondz]

Apparently , you didn't read my comment on the Thumpers thread about your use of the Thesaurus when "top" can work just nicely as well. And you talk about having to be careful when typing "public?" Well, I just didn't hit the T hard enough when typing that other couples' thread, and it really looked funny as well.

Yeah, I read your comment about the use of a "pinnacle" word. Which is why I deliberately used it again... just to rile ya up.

Uh, huh. And how many jobs have you had where walking faster means you get paid better? Hmmmmm?

I can truly say that I have no idea what you are referring to here, I'm lost. I mentioned she has shorter legs, how can she walk so fast, and you are now talking about employment and pay differentials?
DId you just start a conversation on some other thread and you are going to finish it here?

You used to work as a machinist, no? Standing in front of a lathe perhaps. Smidgy works for tips. She's gotta move fast, right? I never saw Ruby move so fast but when she was a waitress. So for you, it's not normal to walk quickly and for Smidgy it's second nature. Leg length has nothing to do with it.

That's 4 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

Wait a minute, you mean you say "holiday" for "vacation" like the English do too?

I really had to think about that one.

I think you always use 'holiday' for Xmas period, e.g. "So are you ready for the holidays?"
You'd also always use 'vacation' when talking about work. e.g. "How many vacation days do you get this year?"

But holiday/vacation are pretty interchangeable in a conversation. e.g. "Did you have a nice vacation?"/"Did you have a nice holiday?"

Although I think the use of vacation is probably more used then holiday. Maybe 70/30? or even 80/20?

And Ponzi,,, great work on the Min in Black, as your kids would say, "That was Awesome!!!"

Thanks, but my kids don't say, "That was Awesome!!!".... they just stare at me like I've got a second head growing out of a shoulder and then roll their eyes.

Hi all! Arrived at WDW yesterday afternoon after a (thankfully) uneventful drive here Weather is yucky but I am happy

Have a great time!

Pull toy is all smidgy's fault! She did it! On purpose! She even parentheticalled asided me and said I'd be dying after she wrote it!

She set me up!

She's the trouble maker!

Not me!

Smidgy? No, I don' recall that. Pretty sure it's all Monica.



Yeah, pretty sure.

Sheldon is my hero. If you are a good boy, I will sing "Soft Kitty" for you.

Sweet! I don't even have to wait 'til I'm sick!

Okay, Go.

Oh that's ok, your a man, you guy's are supposed to be wrong. . . it's genetics

now, I've done a lot of nasty things to people in mylifetime, but I have never "parentheticalled asided " anyone in my life!!!

And yes we are fans of Nebo (well really Smidgy, but we don't tell Nebo that ) :

I am SO HAPPY!
I am going to copy and paste this, print it out, and sleep with it under my pillow (just like I used to with my Paul McCartney trading card when I was a kid)

I will give you 10 YEARS!! added to your life!! for understanding about my job, and how I have to move move move!.

Yup. I get it. Hey! Wanna know who works harder then people in the service industry?

No one.


BTW, I appreciate the 10 years, but don't worry about it. I intend to live forever.

 

[Thumper_Man]

Oh that's ok, your a man, you guy's are supposed to be wrong. . . it's genetics

So if I said " Nebo is the best trip report writer here on the Dis," would I be wrong?

Nebo, in light of this new evidence, you better be careful when picking Uni over Disney. It's going to be the WRONG answer.

The service industry is very difficult and you are appreciated even if you don't hear it on the job. (Saying please and thank you is apparently too much like right these days).

You thought you had me with this question didnt you? Admit it. Wellllll in front of every correct incredibly awesome women. . . there's at some point. . . one lucky *the Dis site is blocking my word* man!

 

[nebo]

Who are all these people?
Can I just sit back and watch?
No, guess not, gotta start with Sam;

Have to kibbitz here. The Man of Thump is spot-on.

Man of Thump? That sounds legendary! I remember when rabbits were only called peters.


Sports are like breathing. BTW - The Vatican and I are pulling for the Good Catholic Boys of Notre Dame, come Monday night, against those cute Southern Baptists from Alabama (Roll Tide! Explanation of the shout out to the Loyal Opposition - I am obliged to be kind to my dear sister who married a Rebel and ended up in Jackson, Mississippi).

So tell me, does it get uncomfortable in the nether regions sitting on the fence like that?

I totally agree with Transformers. Yes they are putting one in Orlando. I may have a few pics of the construction. If it's as good as the one in Hollywood, people are going to love it. Couldn't get dumb wife off the ride. Only ride she's gone on more than twice. If the park didn't close early, she would've gone another 3 or 4 times. Heck she still might on the ride today if I would let her.

Mike, I can't wait for that ride.

Pull toy, play toy. Aren't they the same thing? It's a toy and toys are meant to be played with to have fun.

Um, please stick to talking about rides, IN THE PARKS! Shudder.

Yeah, I read your comment about the use of a "pinnacle" word. Which is why I deliberately used it again... just to rile ya up.

Yeah, well, guess what Smarty!
It worked.
Are you good at playing Pinnacle? Queen of Diamonds, Jack of Spades, that kind of thing?

That's 4 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

Oh, my Goodness. Yes, you are right, I stood many hours at lathes, and yes, you are right about her walking.
Ok, that said;
It took you 4 minutes to type that pissant sentance?

Although I think the use of vacation is probably more used then holiday. Maybe 70/30? or even 80/20?

Oh, Ok, I get it now.
(geesh, there's two minutes of my life I won't get back)


Thanks, but my kids don't say, "That was Awesome!!!".... they just stare at me like I've got a second head growing out of a shoulder and then roll their eyes.

Yeah, I know. There's nothing better, than when you can get your kidsj off guard with a line that they can't help bu7t laugh at!





Smidgy? No, I don' recall that. Pretty sure it's all Monica.



Yeah, pretty sure.

No comment



Okay, Go.

Oh that's ok, your a man, you guy's are supposed to be wrong. . . it's genetics

Wait. What's wrong with genetics? They are a lot cheaper than name brands.

Yup. I get it. Hey! Wanna know who works harder then people in the service industry?

No one.


BTW, I appreciate the 10 years, but don't worry about it. I intend to live forever.

Want company?

Yeah, well, I have it covered. Yep, I got it, I'm on it, yeah baby. And, as you can see, we'll get to the point soon, and then we'll see what's right,,,,,

The service industry is very difficult and you are appreciated even if you don't hear it on the job. (Saying please and thank you is apparently too much like right these days).

Nicely said X Factor.

You thought you had me with this question didnt you? Admit it. Wellllll in front of every correct incredibly awesome women. . . there's at some point. . . one lucky *the Dis site is blocking my word* man!

Really nicely said X Factor.

Do you come with subtitles?



ok, done here, question;
You guys don't mind if I go off topic for a chapter do you?
i'm sorry, sometimes I get thoughts or little stories that aren't Disney and I want to run and play with them!

Like the time Smidgy and I were on the top deck of the houseboat going down the big MISS.
By our selves.
And then ,,,,,

Post away!! Hmm. that doesnt sound right... OK, let's hear it!

peters? nether regions?

How'd we get back to the pull toy again???

Are you good at playing Pinnacle? Queen of Diamonds, Jack of Spades, that kind of thing?

Queen of Diamonds? Jack of Spades? You must have weird pinnacles down there. Up here when you bust 'em open with a stick, candy spills out.

It took you 4 minutes to type that pissant sentance?

One minute to figure out how I'd explain it while using little words so you could understand it. One minute to watch the commercial which started out to look promising but ended as a dismal failure. One minute to actually type it out. Another minute to drink some coke and ponder all of life's mysteries.

Oh, Ok, I get it now.
(geesh, there's two minutes of my life I won't get back)

It took you 2 minutes to read that pissant sentence?

BTW, I appreciate the 10 years, but don't worry about it. I intend to live forever.

Want company?

I'll save you a seat.

ok, done here, question;
You guys don't mind if I go off topic for a chapter do you?

ummm... I think that's been happening anyway.
