Something About Nothing..........#5

[Sharon G]

Sharon, what is the "Orlando Magic Rate Card"? Sorry for my ignorance. Probably missed this discussion somewhere??

Thanks for any help!
Mike

Here you go Mike.

http://www.orlandoinfo.com/magicard/

On the right side click on download a magiccard

On the same page, scroll down to the bottom to transportation. There are rental codes for Dollar and Thrifty.
The Thrifty code even worked for Fort Lauderdale. It was a bigger savings than even for the Orlando rates. I think its because the Orlando cars are already pretty cheap. I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee (need the space to move DS into dorm) reserved for 5 days for $139 including all taxes. I have an economy car reserved for 3 days in Fort Lauderdale for $172...
Also join their Blue Chip rewards for a shorter wait in line. I like Hertz cause they have your name and slot # on a board and you just go out and get the car, but I have not found any good deals recently for them.

I bring the magic card with me, but have never been asked for it.

I've never been to this side of the dis (even though I've been to IOA/Universal way more times than disney, we know a guy) and just wanted to say how much I love the word "mummy dust"!! Who came up with it? It's AWESOME! Do you ever get the urge to ride a rollercoaster? I'm in the mood for the mummy right now..wonder why..

 

[Tinker-tude]

here i am again...

i got off the couch 30 minutes ago and went outside to get the mail.

a stupid but now dead bee flew up my nose.

i now have a new pain/ache to complain about...

picture this: i now have an ice cube in my nose.

back to the couch for me

Bees AND icecubes, huh? Will you take a picture of yourself with an ice cube up your nose and send it to us? Is there anything else you like to stick up your nose? Mice? Teeny, tiny dogs? You could probably make money somewhere doing that.

I guess this is the first time your nose has had a cold of this exact nature. Just don't sniff your runny nose as it melts. You might drown 'cuz water is thinner than boogers and snot. I guess you wouldn't recommend killing bees with your nose. I think I would have screamed and BEATEN my nose. I'd have a stinger and bruises to boot.

Seriously, I'm feeling sorry for you and hope your nose and the rest of you are getting better. I'll eat spinach in your honor if you're not in the mood for it.

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to this crazy thread! We have fun here. Does your name mean you like to sit in front of racing cars and disappear just as they swerve to miss you? Or are your plans darker?

Evening all!! Work is killing me. Anyone got some mummy dust to send me to birghten my day?

*POOF*

There you go. Feel better? Here's some popcorn, too. Wait until the dust settles to open the bag or ewwwwww, you'll be eating a dead body.

we have been known to rename posters when the mood hits us.
Rob became Andy on his second night here.
Tammy became many people, Tu Tu /Taminator etc

remember, yesterday at noon/afernoon when i snorted the bee, well, it still hurts. but your comments about it made me smile

 

[macraven]

You say that like it's a good thing!

I, for one, am in no hurry for January. Or December. Or even for summer to be any more over than it already is! Slow those clocks down!

Mac, the next time you try to catch bees, use a net like everyone else....at least it wasn't the crabs.....

ok health teacher, how do we get rid of crabs? if you answer the question correctly, i'll give you a yellow star and you can also be a sneetch..

Evening all!! Work is killing me. Anyone got some mummy dust to send me to birghten my day?

for you andy

Good morning all..

Hows da dose mac ?

I've never been stung but the boy has.....when he was a toddler he was running round the garden in just a vest and nappy (diaper). He was playing away happy then he just suddenly started to scream.I ran to check him but I could not see what was wrong.My mom said maybe he has been stung so i pulled of his vest but nothing....then i pulled off his nappy...and there it was...a dead bee,the wee scone had been stung on the butt !!

Every time he sees a bee he asks me to tell him that story and he laughs till he cries !!

that is so cute, he still asks to hear the story.


boy, am i lucky !
my bee went up my nose and not in my shorts.
i outgrew the nappys so that was the next best way to say the other end where bees can sting.



i am assuming homies are having a life today.

not many of us home.
but what we have here is enough for me to be happy!

i just wuv my homies...

 

[jillybeene71]

hey, who works on saturdays???????



people who need to fund the vacations they keep planning, but dont have the money to pay for it.

 

[bubba's mom]

hey, who works on saturdays???????

I do!

Well...i did earlier today..... getting ready to go to a picnic later

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend....and welcome to the noobs

 

[roseprincess]

Awww, Mac


Hi homies
Hope everyone is doing well.

I've been busy yest. making Dr.appts and such for Chrissy.
Have a 24hr heart holter monitor appt set-up for her I think for this coming Tues. It's a routine thing for her- once a yr thing.
Cannot get an appt with her Ped Card. until sometime in October. The office will call me back when they have an evening opening. They are finally hiring another Ped Card at the office. THe new Doc starts end of Sept THey have been using only 1 Dr. for about 3 yrs and the office is so behind on appts. My DD's original Ped Card retired about 3yrs ago and they never found a replacement for him. So now the office will have 2 Ped Cardiologists starting end of Sept.!
I hope this new Ped Card sticks around awhile.

Update on my grandma. She is doing whole lot better! She is up in the w/c all day. She is eating solid foods again. It's like the big episode that happened 2 weeks ago never happened. This woman is like a cat, she has at least 9 lives b/c she is always coming back from the dead seriously!
It's another false alarm again. Throughout the almost 6 yrs she has been in the nursing home, she has had a few "near death" episodes. Besides this latest one, she had another big episode last November, her blood pressure dropped extremely low and she fell 2 days beforehand and hit her head. Being 92 yrs old, God still has her here on earth for a reason.
She is scared to go into her room during the day lately. So she stays up in the w/c in the hallways until the evening.

Other health news, DH had his follow-up appt for his diverticulitis this morning.
Everything seems ok so far. Pain is gone. Tho his Dr. wants him to schedule a colonoscopy in the next couple of months, for just a routine thing. I told DH last night, don't be surprised if Dr. wants to schedule a colonoscopy. DH is like "yeah,right." Well, Doc wants him to get one

I won't be here much this weekend, as we have a family wedding to attend tomorrow. I still have a lot of stuff to get ready for the wedding.


Barb- have fun at the picnic!

K-fish- have fun at the Poconos! I haven't been there since my honeymoon.

Mac- glad you are doing better Hope the swelling goes down in your nose

Hi to all the homie redheads


Oh boy, at church tonight, they are going to talk about s*x.
Always a bigger crowd when this subject is discussed
I pretty much know what the pastor is going to preach about.


Have a good day, homies!

Welcome to the Dark Side! Good to have another Universal fan to play with. We have fun spreading magic with Mummy Dust, but I have no clue who came up with that term.

mac I laughed so hard on that bee in the nose

Just last week I took a drink from my soda pop can and it had a yellow jacket on top of it.It nailed me wright on my lip.Walked arond allday like someone gave me a huge fat lip (its been known to happen )

Another reason I like DIET drinks. No sticky sugar to attract bugs. Woo-Hoo! Of course, being diabetic, I've been drinking diet stuff for so long the regular sodas taste like syrup to me. Sorry about your lip and the sting!

Hey youse....


Hows da dose mac ?

I've never been stung....

Sounds like you've got the luck of the Irish. Reminds me of a joke I heard.

Q: What's the difference between a Scotsman and an Irishman?

A: The Scotsman had the sense to GET OUT!!!!!!!!!

So are you a descendant of those first Irish clans that took over Scotland?

I had luck until I was 36. I had never been stung by anything up to that point. Then a bunch of wasps starting building a nest in the corner slats of our fence right at the drive-thru gate. I came home, closed the gate, and was stung on the wrist. PARALYZING FIRE UP THE ARM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but the boy has.....when he was a toddler he was running round the garden in just a vest and nappy (diaper). He was playing away happy then he just suddenly started to scream.I ran to check him but I could not see what was wrong.My mom said maybe he has been stung so i pulled of his vest but nothing....then i pulled off his nappy...and there it was...a dead bee,the wee scone had been stung on the butt !!

Every time he sees a bee he asks me to tell him that story and he laughs till he cries !!

Love it! Anything about a butt is hysterical to my 7 y/o, too.


Gotta get the kids ready for baths and bed now. Then I need to finish my lesson. I'm so behind. I might be back later. I hope.
