09/18/11 - DVCers Take Over the Dream (S.S. Member Cruise 2011) - Thread #12

[Hoosier John]

Not only were we not invited, we have been directed not to "crash" the ceremony or risk being brought up on charges...

Wow, sure hope they don't have an emergency which requires a fire department to respond!

How's the knee rehab going?

 

[Luckymomoftwo]

Did anyone here know others before this cruise besides Milford/Shawn, Junior/Debbie, and Wally/Terrie (and of course the 3 Potter families joining us for the first time)?

I think the other thread mistook us for all knowing each other so well simply because that's what we're trying to do. I made myself a cheat sheet so that I could learn everyone's names. And I would feel funny greeting someone on the ship with, "Hi DeerNuts" rather than Sparky (aka Ian).

Of course some of us chose names that would work either way (W@LL-E and Hoosier John for example)

We also knew mark & Lynn, Ian & Laura, Michael & Monika. All from last years thread and SSMC.

Not only were we not invited, we have been directed not to "crash" the ceremony or risk being brought up on charges...

OMG I hope you all know that LOTS of people accross the country support you and are just absolutely disgusted with the "mayor". I would post what I think about him but the DISboards would just put a bunch of ******'s.

Can I have your attention PLEASE!!??

The next prize run will be Lurker Julio free. I will not try for a double. May the quickest refreshing poster win!!

Thank you and God speed!

You expect us to believe that. Well, I can't catch up so I guess you can sit this one out!

 

[TIGGERmetoo]

Now that I got all the FE stuff bagged, tagged and packed up I can start working on other important matters like DRINKS I'm off to the liquor store to get supplies This weekend will constitute concocting the perfect red velevet cake martini I plan on making these while bartending at Dan and Sue's post cruise party at BLT. Now all I need are guinea pigs to taste test and rate each variation I come up with

I suppose I could be talked into doing some testing for you.

Not sure, but I know Milford (disrailfan) has a lot of irons in the fire. Maybe someone else can help here, but I though Milford was talking a while back about getting the website set up so people could enter and post their data themselves. Is that right?

Thanks, I know it's getting close for everyone, I was just wondering

I can't believe you actually went through the threads to find it! You crazy!

 

[Luckymomoftwo]

Did someone post on this thread about that Disney Bride that was told she has to re-schedule her wedding next month? Well, anyway, that thread just got deleted a few minutes ago.

Ah, the benefits of a photographic memory (too bad nothing ever developed). Younger kids won't get that. So Junior, Mickey, Andy: we used to have this stuff called film ...

Actually is was pretty easy, just julioogle the following: site:disboards.com sparky ian

It forces google to search one particular site. And google seems to do a MUCH better job than the forum search engines. You must have no spaces from site:...com

Hello all,
Just back from our dining out to benefit the Houston Bank. Yes had to endure crab cakes, romain salad, a delicious Filet with blue cheese risooto topped of with Creme Brulee. All in the name of charity

Oh, man... The hardship! The suffering! You poor, poor guy! That is truly a sacrifice on your part. I'm so very sorry for you.

I hope our food on the ship is as good as that sounds!
