Welcome home, Missy! Glad to hear that you got back safely. I don't think that I could have taken another day away from home...unless it was on the ship!

 

[pjpoohbear]

You didn't lose your pics from this cruise already did you? The board is going to be shut down for a couple days anyhow starting tomorrow night. I was wondering if anyone is on IM or another message system.

msn and yahoo, here
<---- you can add them to your profile and it will show up over there. click on it and you can message me anytime!

Which one is easier to use, PJ? I have used ICQ before.

I like both MSN is simpler for me, less buttons in the window. and you can add those who have yahoo in you msn messenger and see everyone at once.

I think I'm coming down with something - perhaps this explains why I am feeling so cantankerous. Okay mood change....Put on a Happy Face.....

I'm not sure I can imagine you crabby Carla. hmmm.....

 

[lbgraves]

ROFLMAO!!!! You should see some of the pms I have gotten. OY! That is the Veruca Salt coming out.

I am just thinking out loud after going thru the DIS goodies from the cruise and washing the dishes. Let's see who I can think of who has rebooked for 12/8/07...

Lisa & Mike +2
John1 & Amy +1
Steve & Kim +1
Vanessa & John2 +2
Brack & Annette
Angie & Dennis & family
Carla & Carl maybe +1
Jill & family

That fits the private dining room at Palo for brunch &/or dinner. Everyone already has their stockings. How about an ornament exchange? We will have almost a year to plan & make them.

Good idea Lisa . . .

I might suggest trying to find or make ornaments that are not too fragile. We were very sad that the ornament we got from Brack and Annette did not make it to Ohio in one piece.

I will need a primer in how to do this . . . I am not savvy on the IM front. I have not even used iChat on my Mac. I used PJ's link, but it has all that foreign looking playschool style Microsoft stuff on it! Gives me the willies seeing those MSN weebles everywhere!

Lisa, if the Boards are down - no Friday night chat?

I guess it is Christmas weekend!

what will we do if the DIS loses information when the upgrade happens? we are a big lump of data.

[waltsgirl]

I thought we weren't even going to notice when they did the server change over. The boards being down for a couple days is not something people won't notice???

 

[waltsgirl]

Oh well I guess if the boards are down that will give me more time to work on, I mean, talk to Penny's DM.

 

[TanaL]

Has anyone else been following David Pogue's Circuit column on Netiquette. Very interesting.

Carla do you have a link? tried googling and didn't find it. Thanks!

 

[TanaL]

Okay people I have been off line the last 18 hours cause my Desktop crashed in a huge way....Dang I hate PC eeerrrrrrrr.... Come to find out on my Sony Desktop I have two hard drives running in raid 0 (for you techno nuts...lol) and one of the HD's got bad something ....So its at the Computer Dr. and I am on the laptop ....Now ..Most likely I will lose all of my info and pics and everything .....

So I need your help ...I know a few have sent me pics to my email ...but now they are lost so could you please hold on to any and all pics and when I get this resolved could you then please send them to me ....

Sorry , please bare with me ....I am so mad right now cause I have lost alot of pics ....I am hoping they can get the data back for me , but two people from two different places have said all is lost ...eerrrrrrr

So if I dont make it on before Christmas ....

Merry Christmas

I am not a "Have a Happy Holidays" Kinda person , I always say Merry Christmas ....unless of course I know that person is of a different following ..

Merry Christmas!

Unfortunantly I was thinking the same thing for the same reason. DH didn't realize that I had packed it carefully in the cooler and stuffed more things in it at the last minute. I am thinking that if we pack them in a shoebox to get ours onboard, we can store the ones we get in the same box with tissue paper. It will be alot less to bring home.

NOOOOO!!!!!!!! YIKES!!!! How can we back up this thread???

 

[pjpoohbear]

view in printable mode and copy and paste each page into a word document?

give many people each a small number of pages to save then compile on a remote site.

[lbgraves]

HEY! I just tried something & it worked!!!! I went to the meets forum & right clicked on the thread selecting save target as. I just opened up the HTML file & it is there.

 

[pjpoohbear]

oh, and it is not just linking back to the thread? if not a great solution, woo hoo!
