Something About Nothing...........#8

[macraven]

So what do I have running through my head? "Mac is Back" to the tune of AC/DC's "Back in Black".



ac/dc is kewl.......



As I look at the snow which has been falling all day, it's nice to know Mac is going to heard us through Fat Tuesday...we clearly need a guide!

Maria

i didn't come back yesterday as i was celebrating Fat Tuesday the entire day.
and i wore all my mardi gras beads while i grazed in my fridge....

I got this song stuck in my head~~Guess who's back,back again,mac is back,mac is back nah nah na na na~~Eminem

Great to see ya home mac,missed ya!!!

tanks homie.
eminem is kewl too......

You guys are weird. I have that damn MACdonalds "give me back that fillet of fish...give me that fish" song in my head. But, I did just see it on TV....just sayin'.

ever since i read your post, i have been humming the fillet of fish song.
thanks a lot buster brown..................:laughing:

Quick stop by to say hi homies cause school has been out here also due to snow and tomorrow makes day 3 and plus DW trip to doctor and back to ER only to find out she has a stomach virus but oh well she is worth it but youngest ds is driving me nuts

prayers and good thoughts and mummy dust for your wife that she gets better real soon!

Mac - I'm ALWAYS here - just don't comment all that often! And thanks for the bday wishes, although I haven't seen Penny around here much at all lately!

Here's one of my brother's pics from Columbia, SC with their 7 inches of snow on the Palmetto Tree - something wrong with that!

Your weather channel suggestion reminded me of when my youngest son started school. He was worried that I would have "fun" all day without him and warned me not to do many things (go get ice cream without me, play with my Legos). When I asked him what I COULD do while he was gone, he thought a minute and replied, "You can sit and watch the weather channel!!"

i thought everyone watched the weather channel like i did.......

 

[macraven]

And yippee! Another snow day tomorrow...I'm going mad...

do what i do.

run away from home.

Hey all!

Welcome back, mac! I missed ya!!

Thanks for everyone's advice with helping me with the resort. I'm getting some "secret squirel" help from miss laurabearz on another, different option, so keep your eyes open for an update on that if it works out. Just trying to make the most of my money, since I'm finally going to follow my advice and wait a few years for another trip to save money (probably after 2013 when I pay off my car and the Fantasyland expansion is done).

wait a minute.
you are taking advice from the lady that loves frogs?

jk, laura will give you great advice.
tell her to give me some too ......

laura lives not very far from me.
but, the only time i ever see her is in orlando.

MAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Welcome back, beautiful. You were missed berry much.
Sorry you're having a hard time. Sending hugs and prayers your way.



Speaking of songs running through the head, I found the soundtrack for Dr. Horrible's Sing-A-Long Blog on the iTunes store. HAD to get it! DH and I have been listening to it a lot this week, humming it, singing it to each other, laughing. Thanks, Andy! I will always love you for introducing it to us here on the DIS board.



DS8 (almost 9) broke a window last night. He grabbed a toy from DS4 and threw it across the room. Really, really hard. DH and I were watching t.v. downstairs when I heard glass shattering upstairs. He won't be able to afford any new Legos for awhile....


I've been recording a few pieces of the Olympics here and there. I finally watched the opening ceremony. Bonney, I love your national anthem. I almost know it, but I always forget a line. Not always the same line, either.


Stay warm, everyone!

tanks for the prayers.
i need every single one of them.

if you have duct tape, you can tape the window up if the pieces are large enough.
the beauty to that is you don't have to use windex to clean that window anymore.


but if that is not an option, duct tape the kid to a chair when you watch tv and don't want to worry about what he is up to....

now im thinking austin powers; along w/slim shady, secret squirrel, fillet of something (im quite sure it's not fish-i'd rather have can of tuna) & an army of window breaking lego dudes...need coffee

mac ha, u got me beat! u stay so long on ur trip to the motherland, u could probably apply for FLA residency

i found cheap connecting flight home from FLL thru SW, i'll hang onto it unless a better deal comes along, then i'll flip it over to Oct...such a game to ferret out the deals lol

marci i must be a bad person, yet im taking solace from the palmetto tree decorated in snow.How's the grad cruise coming along?

i believe keisha is a travel agent in disguise.
i bet she has all the airlines #'s on speed dial.

I'm with Janet....no sympathy for that tree...but does look pretty. Interesting to see a GREEN tree w/ snow on it!

Lawrence... only 3 days..not too bad. We know the feeling...welcome to the club

Tam...Hard to imagine Legos broke a window! Thought only our dog's butt could do that...and yes...$200 later it's fixed.

Janet...you crack me up with your airfares Don't forget Mar 23 (i think) is next SW release (nanner 4 u) You amaze me wheelin and dealin air around...i just pick something and stick w/ it

Bon...are you in Vancouver...or close? Do you not have any snow? What is going on w/ the Olympics and their lack of snow? Really seems the weather is messin them up

4 Mac...of course.

So..what other trouble is everyone else gettin into?

homies, spill the beans.....
this could be fun!


Brab always has the best ideas.........

Good morning all, let me tell you about my own window breaking experience....I was washing my hair one fine morning when all of the sudden, the water went away....just as I was about to rinse the shampoo out so I rinse my hair in the tub, wrap myself in a towel & proceed to the phone to call the water dept & ask what the heck was going on, she says "we're working on the lines in your area,"the phone is right beside a window overlooking our deck, where my dog Chewy(short for Chewbacca so you get an idea on how huge he is) decides he is so glad to see me that he jumps on the window like he's done hundreds of times before....I guess that was one time too many & the window shattered, I scream & the lady on the phone thinks I've been attacked or something, I explain what happened & all is well except my window. When I told my friend Rhonda about it she said "well at least you know that at your age you can still get someone excited to see you half naked"

only a true friend would say that.........

We're just outside of Edmonton which is about a good 12 hour drive north east of Vancouver (over the mountains). Vancouver is much like Seattle weather wise, so they rarely see snow in the winter (mostly rain). Whistler (where the skiing is) is in the mountains, so yes they do get snow, but it's been unseasonably warm there this winter. This map will show you where we are in comparison to Vancouver.

that's a kewl map!

now we know the way to your place for the next party.........


you don't have any alarm systems in your house, do you?

 

[circelli]

Hey there Homies!!

It is awfully cold here with a dusting of snow......I must keep sharing I don't want to be the only cranky one

What are peoples thoughts about the Motherland at Christmas? I am trying to get my DH to think about a trip with the kiddies!?!!?

Off to do more see ya on the flip side

 

[Mad Hattered]

Damn, Bonnie!! You are way the hell up there. For some reason I figured you lived in the Toronto area. What's being off by a couple Canadian provinces amongst friends though.

 

[minniejack]

School maybe tomorrow with a 2 hr. delay..

Waah... rumor has it that since West Va. is now allowed to finally change their start/stop dates for the school yr. that this yrs start date might fall right when we are supposed to be at Disney. I hope that my pin code for 40% off is still good for earlier dates.

And I just got my itinerary and all my Table service confirmations...

you are such a hoot!!

you kill me.

So.....I made up my mind. I'm gonna splurge and do AKL with the regular dining. Its the number one resort I've always wanted to stay at (next to the Contemporary, but when I called they only have club level available), so I figure, why not since I don't know if I'd be able to afford it in the future. Yes, its going to cost a pretty penny, but why not spend it while I can. Just ross your fingers for me that everything works out well for me!! If not, it'll be the POP, or if worse comes to worse, off site, but I'm pretty sure I'd still be able to do POP if something goes haywire.

Anywho, just finished season one of The United States of Tara. It was really good! I love Toni Collette!!

 

[Tinker-tude]

I know, I absolutely love that ... I downloaded the 3 videos from itunes and have it on my ipod!!!

We just watched the DVD again tonight, and one of the special features. We want to watch it again with the commentary. Do the three downloaded videos include the special features, or is it the show in three parts? If you don't have the special features, you have GOT to get them!

that's OK, I can sing along to yours if someone else is singing, but if I had to sing it myself, I probably couldn't ... and why I have a tendency to say "play ball" at the end of it, I'll never know

It's because the tune is carefully crafted to increase specific chemical activities in your brain. You're lucky. People with certain genetic traits have an increased tendency to get a temporary case of turrets syndrome when they hear it.

I myself feel an unnatural urge to throw baseballs at those people's heads....

Mwahahahahaha! You shall all be come my Dr. Horrible minions!!! Or at least my minimum-wage paid day laborers.

I don't need money, Master.
I just need access to a few big bank accounts.

And a pony. I've always wanted a pony.

now im thinking austin powers; along w/slim shady, secret squirrel, fillet of something (im quite sure it's not fish-i'd rather have can of tuna) & an army of window breaking lego dudes...need coffee

That paints an interesting picture, yes indeed....


Oh, Barb, he didn't throw legos at the window. It was a big plastic pegboard used to teach preschoolers colors and counting. He won't be buying legos for awhile (his current obsession) because he'll be using his money to pay for the window. He pays for the glass, we'll pay for the labor. It doesn't pay to pick on your little brother, steal his stuff and throw it....

Your dog's BUTT broke glass? For some reason I see a cartoon dog launching projectiles from you-know-where.

Good morning all, let me tell you about my own window breaking experience....
...my dog Chewy(short for Chewbacca so you get an idea on how huge he is) decides he is so glad to see me that he jumps on the window like he's done hundreds of times before....I guess that was one time too many & the window shattered, I scream & the lady on the phone thinks I've been attacked or something, I explain what happened & all is well except my window. When I told my friend Rhonda about it she said "well at least you know that at your age you can still get someone excited to see you half naked"

I think I'll use that for a scene in my movie. Now I just need to get the money and know-how to make it.

We just had a similar experience a few months ago, but without the funny stuff. Big dog jumped at our big glass door one too many times and busted the pane. After several months of waiting, we're finally getting a security door and windows to protect the glass. The door is a really odd size (almost 200 years old) so the security door and side windows had to be custom made. Monday! We may be safe from a repeat on Monday!

but if that is not an option, duct tape the kid to a chair when you watch tv and don't want to worry about what he is up to....

My husband used to say, "If you start with the duct tape early enough,
you can convince them they're crippled."

I said, "If you start earlier than that, they WILL be crippled."




It's supposed to be warmer today.


Here's an angel to watch over you.

 

[Poohbug]

I feel for everyone who is having a crazy winter. A couple of years ago we had a record breaking winter-over 100 inches of snow-thinking about it still scares me. Ten days off school Nothing like spending the summer in school-they may as well have year-round classes.

Nice to see you back Mac.

Sending window repair men(nice hunky ones) to all those who have broken windows.

 

[minniejack]

No school again today!!! This time ice! Aargh!!! At least one teacher got smart and sent homework via email.

[Worfiedoodles]

My ds12 just asked me, "Do you think we should go back to Universal for Harry Potter?" -- eyes wide open, very innocently. He totally knows which parent to work!
