First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise Ten, Seriously Ten?!? You People Talk Too Much

[jeanigor]

Anyone know how the crowds have been? There was a post on the theme park boards that things have really slowed down, but that was a couple weeks ago.

Cinderella89 (a college program CM who works at Epcot Outdoor Food and Beverage) said it has been dead since Easter. Here's hoping the trend continues another couple weeks.

I think that's a great idea!

Thanks everybody, I'm cracking up looking at it and I had to share!

Alicia!!! That is freaking hilarious!!! I love it!

Holy cow people...not sure how I did it, but I ended up with 300 points out of a possible 300 points on my final from the microecon class!! How did THAT happen???? All I can say is thank goodness for the extra credit questions! They balanced out what I had missed...

You shouldn't doubt yourself. You studied and worked hard, you should know that it will pay off.

What are the chances of being upgraded from a catagory 6?

Probably greater than being upgraded from a Cat 5?

From the "Everything you did not need to know about the Disney Cruise Lines" file.

Thanks Mike. I'm not quite sure for what, but thanks.

I've been reading some post here on the Unplugged Forum that some of you may be nervous to meet the other DISers. Are you?

But I haven't met Jen, Don, Todd, and others...and heck...I was nervous meeting you people too!

I'm not that nervous. I've met many of you, and I feel like I know those I haven't met through the boards. I've seen some of your pictures. Heck, I was holding Jen for a picture during Mousefest, plus Todd, Puck, and Kathy were there as well.

I'm not nervous either. Thanks to the boards, a lot of us know each other--even if it isn't in normal face to face style.

Thought I would throw this out there if anyone else wants to use it.

Thanks John...I think I am going to "borrow" that!

My flattie is laminate to protect it from the elements (water, sand, spilled beer).
I made a few magnets.
My FE are 80% done.
I just have to pack. This weekend.
night all....

Spilled beer? Perish the thought, that's wasteful and isn't in line with the Environmentality of Disney.

Bought some Bonine at WallyWorld today. Oh, and just in case your gonna get your own, it's were the Tylenol is. It took me a good while to finally locate it.... on the very bottom shelf. Fortunately, I looked it up online so I would know what the box looked like before I went. (Not sure why I thought to do this but I did. ) I never would have found it otherwise. Just look for a blue box.

By the Tylenol? Hmmm. Weird. Guess it shows I still haven't bought it, doesn't it?

I'm scared to death Of those I've not met AND those I have

Is there a special rider on trip insurance to cover that? Would it be considered ADD or a pre-existing condition since you were aware of it prior to sailing?

Morning all!!! We have officially left the teens behind us!!!

12 Days Until "Fun on a Boat!" and Buffoonery on Buses!

Good morning everyone.

I've used it three times now and I'm a fan of touringplansdotcom crowd calendar. It wouldn't be for EMH/rope droppers as they have you avoid EMH. I feel I can do more with less hours and less crowds than I can with more hours and MORE CROWDS. FYI

Heyheyhey....I'm right here...

You are who I fear most

 

[DVCsince02]

Fixed.

I'm glad I posted that question. I hope everyone feels a bit better knowing they aren't the only one who is nervous (well, except me and ADP and Tonya and Anna and Todd and .....).

 

[ADP]

N.... na... nnnn na.... No.

Umm...Did you just call BrandiE what I think you called her?

In this case A is for Excellent!

FYI for us AKV peeps...
Where is Kidani Village located?
When arriving at the Animal Kingdom Lodge, Jambo House is the first section of the resort you encounter. Kidani Village is located about a half-mile further down the road. There is a walkway connecting these two sections. The Animal Kingdom theme park is nearby, however you cannot walk there. You must drive or take Disney transportation.

I can't wait to check this place out in person. I found these videos on the DVC Misc forum. They are really good and give you a sense of the inside of the resort. I was surprised the person taking the video get a shot of our names on the Kidani Village tapestry in the library.

Who? Mindy? Well, I don't blame ya.....

 

[scarlett873]

Gooooooooooooooooood morning people!!

It's pretty rainy and dreary here today. Blech...as long as the severe storms stay away...

Must go find a dry cleaner close to home (always used one that was on the way to work before and it's kinda out of the way now) and tan. Then we're on babysitting duty tonight. My sister and her DH never get date night so we told them we'd babysit the munchkins while they went to a movie or something...

 

[tmli]

ASK TRACY QUESTION......

I am sorry if this has been asked.....will we be notified by email or some other method as to palo times, and the other things we signed up for? Or will this be given to us when we board.

 

[DVCsince02]

More taunting...

9 more days for us - we are now in the single digits

As for being nervous - I'm not nervous myself, but I'm a little nervous for my DH - he isn't as into the DIS like I am and I think he's going to be more shy and apprehensive around everyone

I've been reading some post here on the Unplugged Forum that some of you may be nervous to meet the other DISers. Are you?

ME!!! Although in the last month or so it's gotten less that way. But, yeah, I'm scared of all of you.

I have no doubt I'll enjoy everyones company! I'm a watch and see type, I'll manage, but I just need that first drink to get me going.

Will you get me one too, please? I might need a couple.

I'm not that nervous now but I know I'll be a wreck on the drive over there. I'm not setting foot on that beach without my... oh, what the heck was the name of that drink?! It sounded like a pina colada but not. Nicole? Dodie? I think one of you talked about it. Anyway, when I'm good and liquored-up, then (and ONLY then) will I stumble onto that beach! Nicole, I might need ya to hold me hand a day early.... for support. I'll be a bit tipsy.

I'll hold your hand, Dara!!

I'm scared to death Of those I've not met AND those I have

It's a good thing there's a couple normal ones like me, Tracy.

Now that's just about the funniest thing I think i've read in a long time!

I checked for typos, what's so funny????

 

[tickledtink33]

Good morning

It's going to be 91 degrees here in Massachusetts today.

 

[scarlett873]

Normal...none of us are normal!!! Tracy may have been at one time, but i'm sure that we managed to drive her mad months ago...

Shhh, if i keep telling myself I'm normal I appear a little more sane.

Gooood Morning!!!!

I have my anatomy lab final today so I won't be around much but I just wanted to comment on a few things:

More taunting from the podcast crew!!! They just don't stop . . .

I was nervous meeting everyone at Mousefest, this time not so much!!! I am actually a very quiet and shy person until I get to know you but I feel like I know everyone already! And some of you I do know from MF. So, to me it will be like seeing old friends again!!

I can't wait!!!! Tomorrow I will be in single digits!!!! I have soooooo much left to do plus getting ready for finals!!

On a sadder note, as you know, today is the one year anniversary of Bawb's passing. I actually didn't start listening to the podcast until soon after Bawb died. In fact I think the first podcast I listened to was Bawb's Memorial Show. Since then, I have gone back and listened to every podcast. I fell in love with Bawb and his quirkiness. I never had the privelege of meeting Bawb in person but I feel like I lost part of my family. I had the privelege of talking to Diana in August at the DWFB meet and was very touched by her love of Bawb. They worshipped each other and drove each other nuts I'm sure. They remind me of my Grandparents who have been married for 63 years!! They adore each other but they certainly drive each other nuts!!! I continue to think about Bawb on a daily basis and all of the lives he has touched. I know he will be looking down on all of us next weekend and smiling!! Bawb would have had the time of his life on the cruise, but he will be with us in spirit!!!

We miss you Bawb!!

Shhh, if i keep telling myself I'm normal I appear a little more sane.

And if I keep telling myself I am going to be taller and have blue eyes, it'll work too, right?

You know what they say: Wish in one hand......

 

[aGoofyMom]

Is that like Muppets from Space?

But seriously DP points out everything that is lime green. Like I would expect a child to as he learned colors. "Look a YELLOW school bus!! Look a GREEN tree! Look at the BLUE sky."

Look, its a DIS GREEN truck!
Look, its a DIS GREEN building!

DD does this...

I survived my flight-barely. It was as bad as I predicted. Have a good evening and tomorrow all! I should be back online Wednesday morning.

Holy cow people...not sure how I did it, but I ended up with 300 points out of a possible 300 points on my final from the microecon class!! How did THAT happen???? All I can say is thank goodness for the extra credit questions! They balanced out what I had missed...

Way to go!!!!

AGGHHHHH - tooooo close to work related for me!



Alicia - the poster is AWESOME!

John - Grahpics are great - I will be borrowing!

Add me to the list of slightly nervous. I am looking forward to it, but I am always shy in meeting new people...even ones I have talked to for months.

So Dara, you're saying as neighbors we shouldn't be out in the hallway waiting to ambush you with the welcome wagon when you come aboard?

Nervous?!?! What are you nervous about?

You already know me, Mindy, Shelly, Aaron, Paul, Alicia, Yvette, Emiel, Lori, Rick, Kim, John, Katherine, Chris, Tracy and the Podcasters. (I'm sorry if there were other people at Mousefest that are going on the cruise that I have forgotten, it's late.)

I'm surprised she didn't cancel the first possible chance after meeting us at the DATW at MF!

You are who I fear most

I must concur with this one!

Shhh, if i keep telling myself I'm normal I appear a little more sane.

Yeah, we'll go with that one!


Morning everyone!

I too still think about Bawb on a daily basis, and truly miss his genuine heart.
