Stop fantasizing, old man! We all know you're old as dirt. Us youngsters just humor old people like you. The rest of us have no trouble reading the small print.>

What a mean thing to say! And here I was just trying to help you out [as I always have].....see what I get!

Nancy and I visited Patti's brother this afternoon, he looked worse than we expected.....it was quite a shock

Enough with the gloating about OA, you two. You couldn't pay me to go on that big SOB. Besides, RCI doesn't want me on her......I'm way too sophisticated charming to be sailing on Oasis.

I bet that's why I haven't been invited too!! Thanks san...now I feel much better!

Good morning, gang. You too Mr. "I'm way too sophisticated charming to be sailing on Oasis".

San - That must have been an awful accident that Matt's BIL was in. Sounds like he's got a long road ahead to recovery. I really hate motorcycles. My father broke his leg and knocked out most of his teeth while riding his police motorcycle when we were very very young. My brother broke his shoulder also riding a police motorcycle. He still has a huge Harley, but doesn't get to ride very much any longer. I don't think his wife lets him!

Not much planned for today. I'm so glad to have some warm weather return today. The temps the past 2 days were too low too fast. 30-40 degree drops in temperature is just wrong!

Time for another cup of coffee.

Excuuuuuuuuuuuse me,but,I too,had no desire to ever book the Oasis,but if its free,its for me!:clap:As if none of you would do the same thing(and I dont think anyone was gloating,just stating the facts:boogie.......

we just booked the Hard Rock Cafe for the night before......it will be kinda special treat............after all,its Thanksgiving and our anniversary is the day before................not to mention they have a cheap rate

anywho.........Im still half asleep this morning..........could had slept till noon,if I didnt feel so guilty about it.

Rita, are you checking the remember me box to the right of your
username and password, do it just like you do on CC

 

[verosnowbird]

Bob,

i figured out the problem. I had bookmarked this thread instead of the Forum page, so every time I clicked on it, i had to register. DUH!
Thanks for your help.......except you haven't given me my proper title, I'm not being referred to as HRH (that's Her Royal Highness to you commoners).

(AND NO COMMENTS FROM THE LEFT COAST MISTER):no:

 

[PH8]

Glad you got that figured out!:clap::clap:

 

[verosnowbird]

PH, Sometimes I have to be hit over the head, but sometimes my Crown just absorbs the blow..........have to remember to remove it the next time I use the Royal Sceptre!

Oh didnt see your post BB........guess we were posting the same time............Im with you.that cold weather had to go.......too much of a change!

 

[bob]

I'm working on a PROPER title................................

 

[verosnowbird]

Well, I certainly hope so.......if I am anything, I am PROPER!

 

[verosnowbird]

You Florida folks are funny.......complain about the heat, then when it gets cool, you want the heat back. We in NE would never do that

How would you like snow on Sunday, then 70 degrees on Wednesday. Talk about a temperature swing!

PH, that rate at the HR isn't bad. We get "free" rooms at Mohegan, but I called to get a room for Oct. 11 and was told no more "free", but that had a really good deal for me.....$499 per night (notice no decimal point between the 4 and th 99, LOL) so we just waited until Oct. 18 for the "free" room!

We've been to the Tampa Hard Rock a couple of times and enjoyed it. Last time we went we should have signed up for their Players Club cards, but we didn't, so we will definitely do that the next time. Actually won some at the Tampa location. It's much smaller than the casinos in Connecticut, though. Massachusetts is trying to legalize casino gambling, but there are some people who still rail about the "evils" of gambling, like smoking and drinking aren't "evils", too! (Well, maybe not the "drinking").
Problem is the land......they need to put a casino somewhere near major highways and public transportation, but we don't have much land with those specs. We have a large tract in a community about 25 miles south of here, but there is a lot of opposition from neighbors to the land. They want the tranquil lifestyle they have, and a casino would definitely impact that....besides, there is a huge over 55 community that would border the casino land, and the owners are trying to stop it. Proponents talk about the tax revenue that Mass is losing to Conn....all you have to do is check out the license plates of the cars in the parking lots......at least 75% of them are NOT from CT, but from MA, RI, NH, NY. I am really glad the casino is a 2+ hours ride from us....we have to make a trip to go, it'snot something you can do for an evening.....good thing, as we wouldn't have any money for cruises if the casino was closer

Time to go to the office.

[Breeze]

You're right, Rita. We in FL do like to b*tch about the weather. Heck, there's nothing else to complain about down here. We have no traffic problems in FL. Ain't that right, PH? The tourists are all so sweet and friendly. Yeah, right! We live in a perfect world here, so we have to come up with something to complain about once in a while and weather is it. Now if you believe all that BS I was handing you, how would you like to buy a bridge I have for sale?:boogie:

 

[PH8]

yea and lets not forget now what season is upon us,BB.........SNOWBIRD season............Im seeing tags from Canada,MI,and other points north.....I keep yelling GO HOME.........but I guess it helps pay the FL economy........

That rate is great,Rita compared to what they usually get...................so if you happen to change your plans,you can stay there too!! I have never been to any HRCasino......we almost went on Sunday but thought maybe when we cruise outta Tampa in Jan,we could spend the night to check it out..................Now I wont have to.

 

[Breeze]

Talking about casinos and cruising makes me sad right now. No chance I'm going to be going to or on either in the foreseeable future.

 

[PH8]

Thats what I said too.dont give up,BB..............I bet you'll be booking one soon...........

Off to Cox.gotta switch out the box....we cant get ON DEMAND for some reason and the tech said it was the box..........somehow I doubt it(since this is my 2nd box w/o it).but I'll try...............

 

[Breeze]

Just have to wait and see, PH. In the meantime, I'm not holding my breath!

Good luck with getting a box that works this time.

 

[cruisingator]

Hi,

BB and Gordon, were you having a heart attack during Saturday's game. i kept switching back to it while we watched BC, and figured you were chewing your nails! (Or having a LOT of wine).

Rita

Yeah, I was not a happy camper during the game. Someone forgot to tell the offense that we had a game to play. I hope they show up this week in Mississippi.

 

[PH8]

Had a hard time getting on here this afternoon........and now I had to sign in!But its saved so it should be ok

Got a new DVR box but still no on demand...tech is coming out tomorrow between 3 and 5.........Cox is usually pretty good with their appt times.......

I set up the new box and noticed all the channels were screwed up....and no sound! So I call tech help and they fixed it for me......seems I got a box from Gville with their lineup!!

Hey gordon and Janet.....meant to tell you..went to Rogers Christmas House on Sat........the landscaping was terrible.......all overgrown and unkempt(signs of a failing business).......then the candles we went to get were not in for the season yet........and we looked at the Dickens villages(little houses we collect) and they only had 2!!!!!!!

I think they will be outta business by years end................the place looked really,really bad!

Making bacon wrapped hot dogs for dinner...........fancy,huh??
