a big welcome to our newest homie......





mickman1962

so glad you have joined us.
you do have to come back again and play with us here.

once you post on the thread, you become another homie just like us..
and that is a good thing..


that is awful of being without power for 12 days.

i do hope you ate all the ice cream up before it melted.
that would be my first plan of action also......

 

[macraven]

Ugh! Monday. We had some wicked weather here this weekend. We had a tornado touch down 3 miles from the house on Saturday and were without power for over 12 hours. It made it difficult to do laundry and pack for our Hawaii trip that begins in TWO DAYS!

i don't like tornados at all.
i heard the sirens going off different times during that storm.

i was driving to walmart at that time.
yea, down in your neck of the woods.


did you look up the hawaii site for the pictures?
i will call my dumb brother tomorrow to see if he can answer my questions on those locations.


wednesday is almost here!!

Was having a guy tell me today that if I dug up my foundation today for a new patio, then I'd be w/o power and phone for a few days and that scared me...this is the 1st year that we haven't had the power go out for any length of time... yay!!

Have fun on your trip! We survived the tornadoes on Saturday and Sunday, too. I drove through part of a storm on my way to a meeting Saturday. It was really intense, but moving so fast that I was out of it in 45 seconds. Since I never listen to the radio, I had no idea it was a seriously dangerous storm with tornadoes touching down until a few people at the meeting informed me of how bad it actually was. My angels take good care of me.

Hey Lucy, I'm home.......................in my best ricky ricardo voice..

Welcome home, Mac! Hugs to you! Hope the PUs are doing well.

 

[macraven]

tanks tude!

off to work.


when i get home after that, i have to do laundry.
i think it is so sweet that that the family left it for me to do when i returned.
they think i'm special..........

after idol and glee tonight, i will be back and ketchup on what i have missed.

have a great tuesday homies!

 

[Worfiedoodles]

Happy Tuesday! We are wrestling with what to do about our summer vacation. We could either go to Universal and HP, or cruise to Bermuda. The advantages of HP and RPR are obvious, plus we can stay in Tampa a few days and visit SIL's pool...the cruise means no flight, home 10 minutes after we find the car, and being out of cell phone range...Decisions, decisions! We can't go until the end of August, and dh isn't going to let me book anything until June, but I feel like I want to be settled!

[minniejack]

welcome home Mac

For all of you animal lovers out there quit reading now....



DH just got home with a huge turkey--turkey for supper tonight! yummm

 

[tink1957]

Yay, mac is back!!! We missed you, hope your visit went well.

My internet service has been spotty since the weekend storms. That's what I get for living in the sticks & having dial-up.

Hope everyone is having a good week.

 

[macraven]

Puggie the Pooh? my grand-dog is a pug....he's a spaz, sweet but crazy. knock on wood, our verizon service is still working fine...i hear all the time how much faster comcast is from my kids

mac's on the road again...sans the net...maybe she'll read harry potterive yet to finish the series, no spoilersguess i better cross it off the bucketlist before Oct trip or i'll be a clueless muggle.

me a parry hotter fan............

phbt...you know mac better than that....not only will she NOT read HP, she HATES Parry Hotter...remember?

now this homie knows me......

Afternoon everyone ... sure is quiet in here with Mac gone ...

Hey Minnie-the-pooh ... saw your thread on the other side about refillable mugs - you sure know how to cause trouble!!

... to answer your question - Refillable mugs are a very hot topic on the other side and you'll get the Dis-police telling you it's "illegal", "immoral" and "stealing" to reuse a mug from one visit to the next. I believe when some of the older mugs were sold, they didn't have an expiration (not sure which ones or when), but the more current ones are "supposed" to only be used for the length of your stay. Technically you are "supposed" to buy a new refillable mug each time you return.

We've been going since 2003 and have taken our refillable mug back with us on more than one trip

. When refilling our mugs, we've seen old resort specific mugs, mugs from resorts other than the one we're staying at, current mugs, older mugs, and even mugs from 7-11, Seaworld, etc. No one from Disney has said anything to anyone using these mugs, and honestly I don't think they really care. It seems the only people that care about resuing the old mugs are the people on this board.

i know.
i talk a lot.

or shall i say, i type a lot......

i have disney mugs from 1996 from the all star sports resorts.
i was there the year that resort opened.

when i bought them, the sign said good for life.
that is why i have 3 of them.

was told then i could reuse them on each trip. and i do....
now if you think i will post that on the motherland side of the threads, don't hold your breathe.

i'm not stupid.


i have the ice/blue dueling dragon mug from 1999.
yes, i still use it for the cheap refills.

 

[macraven]

Good afternoon(almost evening) homies

I had to cut my grass for the first time this season...welcome spring. At least I got some exercise as I use a push mower.

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.

Cdn, ITA about the mugs.

we had another frost last week.
end of discussion........

I'm just a hillbilly, redneck THUG at heart. I don't remember who came with the Totally Hot Uni Goddess, but I've loved and used it ever since. Thank you!

you are kewl you homie THUG you..........
my g'ma is from west virginia so i guess i'm with you

OH NOoooooos they don't!!! poseiden is one of my favs (or i should say was...before the water vanished) a good TM really makes it pop. Although ive gone on record how it could easily morph into HP-vibe w/the snake in sewer....don't ask me which book, i don't remember

speaking of the books, u never know, mac might go to the HP side...NOT lmao...im just tweaking her to see if her spidey senses r still working

figure i'll 'catch it good' when she returns





bonny - u rogue u

i vote with keisha on poseiden..
kewl is the word for the day ....


i will be checking out the parry hotter land.
i want to see what it is all about.
of course, i will need a translator for all the pictures and background stuff when i go there.

but, i still don't like Mr. Hotter or his books or his movies.....

Getting ready to leave work for the day already. I've been asked to cater a golf outing tonight. Looks like I'm grilling (20) THICK t-bones, baked potatoes and corn on the cob.

oh yea, now you cook the good food while i am back home.
hope you have a great trip tomorrow!
have fun with the hula land peeps.

My dog would jump on you.

mine would hump your leg

My cat would curl up in your lap. Maybe we should talk about pool-hopping? Good thing it's allowed and encouraged on the Dark Side!

Maria

i have 2 cats.
i think the dogs outnumber us here.

everyone should be a rebel at least once in their life and hit the dark side..

 

[macraven]

where is everybody--this thread has been quiet for weeks

until now............brace yourself..

I guess you guys will have to start rooting for this guy!

did i ever tell youse guys that he used to date my brother's daughter?
she said he was a jerk ..........

thanks for the quick reply!!

I am getting excited for our family trip the end of September!!!! We have even got 2 more ppl to come with us to HHN!!!

Hey homies.Its Friday and the beer is cold!

Anyway,we leave for RPR on Monday for a 3 night stay.Its our annual DW's B-Day getaway I promise her.Its alot easier to do this then trying to pick up a gift!!

The sad part is I'm planning this trip like a vaca to DW.I'm not the person to plan anything.But the economy got me budget every penny for meals and such...

I see why now people on the other boards go crazy if not downright mean,it's enough to drive one crazy.[

sorry i missed your send off.
hoping you and the mrs. have a great time and a wonderful birthday celebration!!
trips are more fun than gifts.....

Good Morning, Homies! I'm from St. Louis, and I never heard of the slinger...now mostaccoli and toasted ravioli, I'm all over...

Maria

what part?
i'm from that area and miss not living there.
how long have you been out of the midwest?

the slinger looks like the steak and shake plates.

Really OT from all the regional food but I just found out that I have a mouse in the house. It's bad enough when they come in the basement but this one is in one of my boy's rooms upstairs. Well, I know what I am doing the rest of the day-killing mice. I've got a field across the road and I've got a big pole barn they can live in but when they come in my house their days are numbered.

Just going to buy some snap traps but if anyone has any suggestions-they will be appreciated.

get a cat or two and your mice will leave.
honest.

Hey locals....have a question for ya....

My niece is flying into MCO (to meet us) on Tues., July 13th....pretty sure she gets in around 12:30-1pm.

What's the best way to get from MCO to the PBH?

Just in case I-4 is a hot mess...DH will want to go around it!!

Thanks!

i would think that metro west would know the answer.
where in the ham sandwich is he ??

 

[macraven]

Yay, mac is back!!! We missed you, hope your visit went well.

Hope everyone is having a good week.

vicki, i hate it when i can't get internet service.
i hate that too.

how close are you to town?

it took 4 days of moving boxes in a van from their house to the apartment.
then 2 days of a rental uhaul truck for the furniture.

imagine trying to dispose, trash, or move 8 rooms of furniture from living in a house for 31 years to a 3 room apartment.

whew........

i moved them to a senior citizen joint.


i'm taking a break now.
i'm tired of reading.
i read all day long today to the students.

Well...I wont bother then !!

 

[Mad Hattered]

ALOHA! I'm getting ready to head off to Jurassic Park at 5:30 am tomorrow morning. My plan is to get as many site pics as I can. I suppose that has the chance of being hampered by the alcohol intake. I will do my best....that's for sure! Sometimes one just has to buy into Dr. Ian Malcom's Chaos Theory.

Life finds a way...

Edit: That was my 666th post! That doesn't sound good!!

 

[marciemi]

i have disney mugs from 1996 from the all star sports resorts.
i was there the year that resort opened.

I know it was open before that - here's a pic of my guys in Feb of 1995 there:

I'm not in the picture being 7 months pregnant with #3 and enormously bloated in the background taking the pic! I know we do have a bunch of those mugs still as well but not sure from what trip - we stayed there in 1995, 97, and 98.

we had another frost last week.
end of discussion........

We have a frost warning tonight so I don't want to hear about it!

I'm a great fan of Dr. Ian Malcolm's Chaos Theory! Love the pic as well - can just picture it from JP. Have an EVIL trip it sounds like!

 

[macraven]

marci, i had a typo on the year.
1994. (not 1996)
that resort opened in i think february and we were there in june.

 

[macraven]

Hooray for #666................hoot hoot........!!!


wishing you the best vacay of all.......

i bet you don't sleep much tonight.
i never can get decent sleep the night before a trip.
too excited and my mind races instead of getting the shut eye.


i missed a lot of the homies postings in my quotes, don't think you were over looked intentionally.
i got tired of finding the last page i quoted from and finally gave up.


no skool the rest of the week.....

hip hip hooray....

testing for psat and act with friday an institute day....
i'm sleeping in tomorrow morning.
well, at least to 7:30 that is.
