Oh my goodness you all talk a lot!! Whew!! I'm done reading! LOL Still need 21 more ppl to pay up for their pins so I can order. Thank so all so much for paying so quickly. I love going to the mailbox anyway, but having letters addressed to me (that are not bills) is such a pleasant surprise. Even though I know they are coming (I'm such a geek) lol Thanks for the nice notes too! It is supposed to hit triple digits tomorrow for the first time in like 10 years...guess I'm staying home! Talk to you all soon! I cannot believe we sail NEXT MONTH!!!

That is Just Wrong !!!!!

Pins should all be paid for Bye Now

Please send in your payment .. Info is on page 1 post 5.


there is not alot of time left before this trip ...
She needs to place the order Now ..

On another cruise there was a mistake on the pins !!
the whole batch had to be redone !!
if this happens we could also run into problems

Please send in PAYMENT ..

And if I remember correctly, they almost didn't even make the shipment back to Robin and then she had to carry the heavy box to the ship 'cause she didn't have time to ship them to the ship ahead of time.

Quick good morning before I run into report....don't worry, I won't be posting much today- we'll be able to keep the page count down.


See you all at lunch.

Imonso, you must have a very enterprising young lad. I would be proud of that trait.

Do you have a bubba Mug ? I’ll get by with a little help from my friends.

How do you feel about Walmart ? The stock has been very very good to me, I also admire Sam Walton, interesting guy, and a great work ethic.

Do you like Wine ? Yes


Do you want to walk 20 miles on CC . Sure if it doesn’t interfere with a mile swim.

Hercules for sure over Twice Charmed, I liked it but Herc is funnier.

I concur with Peters Post about the Pins, Let’s get it done. I think Pay Pal was an option. Let’s help out on this.

What's wrong with you people? It's been an hour and a half with no posts?

How are we going to get to 10,000 before our cruise

Back to work for me

TAG GAME.: If you would like to play, please PM SPROS your stateroom # and names. If you don't yet have a cabin #, send it as soon as you get it.we will have one (or two) Mickey shaped door magnets that will get passed around the ship. Each person who receives the magnet will sign it, then go "tag" another participant's cabin door! It's a lot of fun. I'm hoping we can get the Mickey to go around to everyone more than once since we have 14 days!

Unfortunately Kara who planned this game isn't on this cruise but I'm sure someone will remember all the rules.[/QUOTE]

Thanks Elaine for finding the rules. It really is simple - if you come back to your room and find that you've been "tagged", sign the front of the Mickey, mark your name off the back and then you get to "tag" someone else's door that hasn't had it yet. If you don't hold onto the "tag" too long, we might be able to guarantee everyone getting the "tag" at least twice. I will be responsible for TAG. I'm going to see Kara this weekend so I'll get any last minute details from her.

 

[Scott H]

Shari, Say hi to her for us.

 

[rotary2808]

I can go an hour without posts, it's less I'll have to catch up on later.

 

[bluewaves]

Okay, everyone has been very busy....as usual it has taken me awhile to catch up this morning!

ScottH - Congrats on finding the Bubba Grail, and then sorry to hear you will have to get the real "Bubba" for the pictures.

Happy Birthday Kathy (Papa's DW)

Tag??? You're it! Thanks for volunteering IVAN. Looking forward to the game. Sounds a little easy though, just moving it to the next DIS door...I thought we would have to run around the ship and find the next person on the list of participants to pass on the Mickey (maybe on an At Sea day) and try to get to the end of the list by the end of the day???

IMonso - about the green - I found all kinds of info. on the DIS green on the Main DIS Discussion board - down to using the Alien green Mickey Paint samples at Home Depot to identify a DISer. So check out the main DCL board for more info. Also, if you think those cheerleaders are buying those candy bars to eat, well....I bet your son must be a good looking guy, right??? Now we know why he sells all those candy bars. He probably would do well selling those Bubba mugs.

PrettyinTinK - yes, bah humbug on the Pirate costumes. We will either be forgoing or resulting to the cheaper ones as well.

Airforcemomof2 - Okay, I am a procrastinator, but I did just send you my payment via paypal - please forgive me... I'm begging And, I owe you a drink!!

BUBBA MUGS - Yes, I scored two Bubba mugs yesterday at Wally World for just $3.50 each. I know, I think Seaulater found them the cheapest so far - only $2.50 she said, I believe. I am willing to pick up another 2 or 3 if someone still wants them. No shipping from me - I live in FL and will be driving to the port so I can just carry them on. So, just let me know - first come, first serve.

Now, after getting caught up and posting this message I will have to leave in about 15 minutes to take my son to a Pool party before school starts tomorrow!

 

[seaulater]

I've got the disk at home with the mini-navigator instructions from the PC cruise for the Tag Mickey. I'll bring it tomorrow and post what I put in last time. I deleted it out of the mini-navigator for this cruise, cuz I didn't think we were doing it.

I'll put it back in.

Who's in charge of Mickey Tag?

Linda

 

[seaulater]

Another thing...........

Last cruise we had one stateroom on each deck who volunteered to have a list outside their door with either stateroom numbers and disboard names of changed staterooms and guaranty's and for any last minute changes. I know that Aphoenix (Tony and Adrienne) have volunteered for deck 2. Any other takers out there for the other decks?

Deck 2-Tony and Adrienne (Aphoenix)

I will also put in the mini-navigator each deck and the stateroom number if you need to look for the latest changes.

Just post if you want to be the "floor monitor" HA

I volunteer to be the "floor monitor" for Deck 7! We are close to two of the elevators and stairs.

How are we going to get to 10,000 before our cruise

Back to work for me

Late last nite I did my job with 5 postings ...

Lets see... if I can do 10 a day from now til sailing it would add about 400+ postings in 40 days.... and if only TEN of us would COMMITT to this pace then we'll be at 10,022+ in 38.5 days offerring a couple of days to spare before embarkation... eh? This allows for a little drama if we drop below 100 a day sometimes.

So who shall step up a notch to this insanity with me? Yesterday I noted we posted 103 in less than a day.... SO ... the REAL problem comes when someone poses the question... who's gonna help me get this to 20,000?... or 100,000? Awww shucks.... lets not mess around... who's with me to a MILLION!?!?!?! LOL.

At any rate ... I'm good for 400 more before embarkation. And that's true if I have to post four letters on a dew dozen entries to avoid getting my finger tips sore from all this typing.

Oh yeah....

If we can't get ten psychotic types together to do 10 a day - then why not settle for 5 really wild hearts who will do 20 a day? ..... for 38 an' a half days?? OK.... so if no one will join me little madness here then I'll just have to do it myself.... THAT"S "IT!"... Why I'll just post 100 a day ... MYSELF!!!! for 40 days straight! I know... (thank you)... I know my "sacrifice" shall go down in the DIS annuals of history as another shameless exercise in insanity....

OK.. lets' just keep it unstructured and meaningful. Entries with purpose (other than to pad the total) and lets maintain some sembelance of purpose here... so forget the 10 a day committments.

Now if someone wanted to PAY us to post... say we got an endorsement contract ... and maybe some ESPN or Google coverage ... NOW we're talkin'... 10 a day if not 100?!?!?!?

They could install one of these powered skycams in YOUR HOME (if you sign on as a contender) and it would follow your every keystroke and mad dash for "pit stops" in the kitchen and toilet!!!! It could even follow the "action" as you return to the keyboard in a sprint from the car after work or in the middle of the nite! ESPN could even hook you up with a HELMET cam to get a true action perspective as you race to get the 7000th, 8000th and final ... dramatic 10,000th pposting!

Jimmy the Greek would send scouts to pay for interviews with YOU to evaluate the true potential of your contribution to the spectical! There woud be odds quoted at race tracks, vegas and Indian Casions across the nation... plus a few Carribean and Monte Carlo Casinos!

And when it was all done - we'd all embark for the voyage and begin a "Live from the Wonder" thread and sign new ESPN endorsement contracts! MAybe then they'd finally change our compensation from peanut bags to real Pesos!

​

.... ther would be a new sky cam outside your cabin door... etc., etc., etc., .......

OMG... What am I teaching my children with MY involvement here.... wait!.. I'll call ESPN and see if I can secure an "advance" for us....​

Thanks Shari!! I'll include this in the newsletter! Good thing this is an electronic publication because I think it's going to be a big one

 

[winotracy]

Captaincrash, if you type so much in each post, you are going to get really tired with 10 posts a day. I'm good for a few posts a day, but I can't do it for 40 days I can only do it for 37 1/2 (just for you Peter!), then my rate will slow.

Linda, Shari is going to do the Tag.

I was going to volunteer for deck 7, but bluewaves beat me to it We did this on the eastbound PC cruise too and it worked great. Bluewaves, what room are you in? We might be neighbors because we're very close to the aft lifts.
