10/24/2009 Bash On the Boat (I'm with BOB) - Thread #7

[JLDSMD]

This is Thread #7 of the BOB threads.

If you're new to our group, you're not alone. Several of us have sailed together before (on the 10/20/07 Western Cruise - a.k.a. Konked Kruisers) and several more are new. To indicate the ones new to the group, we have put an * infront of their DIS name. There are 11 new DISers and 18 returning KKers.

The following is the same as the other first posts. For those of you new to our DIS Meet thread - WELCOME. There is plenty of good info in this post.

As usual, I'll be back here to update this post periodically. I will try to keep important information up here for all to reference as well as for all our new friends who come to cruise with us. If something of importance comes up, PM me and I will add the link.

We have dubbed this cruise "The Bash on the Boat" because so many people are celebrating birthdays or anniversaries on this cruise. You will also see "KK2" in the title. As you will read, many of us just sailed together on the 10/20/07 Western Cruise. So, with many of us returning here, we are dubbing this KK2. For those of you who didn't sail with us, please don't feel that you are not part of the group. We are a very open and welcoming/friendly bunch. We had such a great cruise last time, but feel it will be even better this time. Come along and enjoy the fun. We will get off-topic many times over the next 2 years, but it is a great way to get to know everyone.

First, here is the list of Characters:

* 2Princes_&_1Princess = Brandee and Justin and their 3 kids. Florida.

Here you go. Thought y'all need this today.

Andy, guess we closed down #6 well in advance of you leaving for FL.

Don't think we'll close this one down by the time you get back.

 

[JLDSMD]

I'd sit and get the whole first page to myself again, but that would be to easy.

Happy posting guys, I'll check back in later.

 

[Hockeychic]

Hey I can post early in the thread this time.

Lots of stuff done today. Now just watching the hockey game. Figure I will take it easy for the rest of the weekend

Have a good one all.

Kim

 

[JLDSMD]

Hi Kim.

I figured they'd be at Page 250, Post 3750 soon enough, I better get #7 up and going.

Not sure if the Mods will like two running threads, so we better go finish off #6 quickly and then start going on #7.

 

[Verandah Man]

I was looking through the cruise meets thread and found this one, can't let you have the whole first page Sneaky #1............

Wasn't going to try for it Andy. That's a one time deal.

BTW, I sent you a PM regarding the closing of #6.

 

[Verandah Man]

Wasn't going to try for it Andy. That's a one time deal. With you, one never knows

BTW, I sent you a PM regarding the closing of #6.

Yeah I know, I was already posting a message here when the PM notice popped up..........

I was surfing the cruise meets forum and saw this new thread had just been started, so I jumped on it.......

 

[Verandah Man]

I was going to start up chapter 7 myself earlier as a joke, but decided not to do it...........

 

[Verandah Man]

Well, looks like Chapter #6 is now closed for good........

 

[Verandah Man]

Oh yeah, the checkbook is still driving me

Not yet, I even brought out last month's statement, but that checked out fine. I'm going to the bank's website and see if I might have something on there I might have missed, but I doubt it. Hey, at least the $400.00 is to the good and not the bad!!!

As Jeff would say, it's the last post that counts, because some threads are closed before reaching the 3750 mark...........
