P.O.T.C. On Stranger Rides! The Missing Chapter,,Final Thoughts,, Preview Thoughts.

[queenbetsey]

I hate that I couldn't tell Nebo & Smidgy I hope they have a wonderful trip, but our internet was out for 10 DAYS while we waited for ATT to get their act together and send us a new modem (yes we could have bought a new one, but if we waited for ATT to mail us one it was free and that put another $100 towards the next Disney trip) but hopefully it's not too late to post my guesses.

A. How often did Nebo fall down? 3
B. How often did he bleed afterwards? 2
C. How many times did Smidgy say, "How many times did I tell you to watch out!" This is a hard one but I'll go with 4
D. How often did Nebo require professional medical attention? (includes dentists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, nurses, ER doctors, proctologists, etc.) 0, I don't think he'd waste Disney time going to a doctor
E. How often did Nebo inflict pain on himself and not fall down? (Examples would be: stubbed toe, barked shins or banged knees or elbows) 3
F. How often did he try to prank Smidgy? (Think, tube -o -water) Another tough one! Since they are there for 2 weeks I'll go with 4
G. How often was he successful? (Think balloon toss) Sorry Nebo, Smidgy's pretty smart so I'm guessing 0

Terri

Oh Terri!
Thid is great! But you forgot one. How many small children will Nebo elbow in the face? I will go with 2
As far as the rest I think you are being pretty conservative. They are going to be there two weeks after all.

I'm going to go with Pinky & the Brain from "The Anamaniacs".

music... the same... I'll let you decide who is who.

My younger brother used to love "Animaniacs"! As a good big sister I had to watch too. It was a very snarky,sarcastic cartoon show. I miss it!

The countdown for Nebo and Smidgy's return is on"like Donkey Kong" now! I know they probably feel like the time has flown by, but I am really anticipating reading about their adventures. I suspect the drive down might have been fraught with peril, what with the rain and wind that was forecasted. I can't wait to hear if they kept the ADR at Tony's or at Sanaa. If they went to Sanaa was it a SaNO! for Nebo or did he find something he could eat? Sanaa has the potential to be a epicurean failure for Nebo that could, dare I say it, even top the eel from Rose and Frown.

Oh, I am really looking forward to Nebo's return!!

See? I've never seen it so I couldn't say anything. But... snarky and sarcastic? Bingo!

The countdown for Nebo and Smidgy's return is on"like Donkey Kong" now!

If you're reading this Monday morning, two things...
1. Why aren't you working! Yes you! At the desk! Get that spreadsheet back up and get to it! (DISboards goes from 12,000 online to 3)
2. Still here? Okay, 3 days (or less) 'til they're back!... Is it just me or does that make you think of Poltergeist: "They're baaaaaaaaack". Maybe it's just me. (and yes I know Carol Anne actually says, "They're here." But I still think it.)

Sanaa has the potential to be a epicurean failure for Nebo that could, dare I say it, even top the eel from Rose and Frown.

But could it top Ohana's shrimp?

Oh, I am really looking forward to Nebo's return!!

Yes! Nebo will be home in 3 days! Like he's going to rush in and turn on the computer to read ALL OF OUR MUSINGS. lol

 

[pkondz]

Yes! Nebo will be home in 3 days! Like he's going to rush in and turn on the computer to read ALL OF OUR MUSINGS. lol

Well, no. Of course not. First he'll trip on the front step. Then he'll stumble into the chair in front of the computer. Then Smidgy'll yell at him to bring in the suitcases. Then he'll drop the heaviest suitcase on his foot. Then he'll hop around cursing for a while (and knock over the potted plant spilling dirt all over the carpet). Then when he's finally done hauling, cursing, bruising and cleaning, he'll go back to the computer... at which point he'll find Smidgy already happily ensconced there, so he'll have to wait some more. Then he'll read all of our musings.

And of course there has to be some adult beverage consumption as soon a they walk in after a long road trip like that!

[mmeb144]

<sigh> I can so see it, just like you described.

 

[queenbetsey]

this is going to be the longest three days ever!

 

[pkondz]

D'oh! You're right! How foolish of me to omit this crucial step. It should read:

Well, no. Of course not. First he'll trip on the front step. Then he'll stumble into the chair in front of the computer. Then Smidgy'll yell at him to bring in the suitcases. Then he'll drop the heaviest suitcase on his foot. Then he'll hop around cursing for a while (and knock over the potted plant spilling dirt all over the carpet). He will then proceed to pour himself a little something from the bar, followed by cleaning up a lot of something from the bar and floor and a change of clothes (you don't think he spilled just on the bar and floor do you?) Then when he's finally done hauling, cursing, bruising, cleaning and changing, he'll go back to the computer... at which point he'll find Smidgy already happily ensconced there, so he'll have to wait some more. Then he'll read all of our musings.

Pkondz, "Animaniacs" was practically created with you in mind. I am going to go out on a very short limb here and say you would love it! It is hilarious! My six year old son has a few episodes to watch and he laughs a good bit, but much of the real humor goes over his head at this point. I advise you to check out You Tube and see if you can find some episode clips.

But could it top Ohana's shrimp?

I can't even begin to imagine what would be able top the Ohana shrimp experience in my opinion. There were just so many facets to the shrimp fiasco, but what am I thinking? This is NEBO we are talking about! Of course it can be topped, it's not if, but when!!

This my friend, is Nebo comedic gold!! I absolutely love it!!!!

LOL that's probably pretty close.. so while he's waiting for Smidgy to finish, he'll fix himself a couple of manhattans, to enhance his witty rebuttals to all of our musings!!!

Man after two eye surgeries, hurricane Irene and tropical storm Lee coming by I missed telling Nebo and Smidgey to have a great time on their trip. I can't wait until they start writing about their trip, it always keeps a smile on my face.

Poor fellas! They look drowned.

I was surprised that they came out the way they did, but they just didn't seem to care. The wind was blowing, it was raining and it didn't stop them. It also kept the grandkids and I entertrained because we didn't have any power so we watched them.

Really? So I should be expecting some royalty cheques in the mail any day now? Sweet!

Don't know when... but I will. Actually I seem to recall my BIL talking about this when it was on.

That's very true. With any luck (for us... not so much for Nebo) we should know pretty soon.

This my friend, is Nebo comedic gold!! I absolutely love it!!!!

Didn't Nebo already warn you about not encouraging me? Now he's gonna be mad. Don't say you weren't warned!

Here is what a hummingbird does during a hurricane:

Those things are attached at the top aren't they? Was it sheltered or was it swinging around like crazy? And is it one bird or two?

In all that you forgot about the Earthquake too i'm in Va too.. it was a busy late august and early september for sure.

 

[teedee]

I may have been hoping for a kinder, gentler nebo. But who am I kidding! Just to get back in the game I'll guess Nebo elbows 4 small children in the face!

Guess who, I'm thinking your state hates me. 2 vacations that started in IL and both were plagued by rain.
Hmmm, Packers are coming to the Flat Land State this weekend-that means the Bears have to play on the Frozen Tundra in December.

Back to page 11. Should no better to click on sooner.

It's Jeff Burton-Either he or I, is getting old. Especially after you see Trevor Bayne.

 

[anut4disney]

Thos things are attached at the top aren't they? Was it sheltered or was it swinging around like crazy? And is it one bird or two?

It is hanging under the eave on my deck and it was doing some swinging. It is only one bird on there but others kept trying to come but the other one would chase them off. The grandkids said it looked like it had a mowhawk, lol.

In all that you forgot about the Earthquake too i'm in Va too.. it was a busy late august and early september for sure.

Oh my gosh, I forgot about the earthquake, that was an interesting thing. My relatives from my dad's side of the family live where it started at but everyone was alright.

When Nebo said we could take over I bet he didn't think there would be pictures of wet hummingbirds.
