Ok, I do remember seeing those. And it did remind me that our Gateway was our second desktop. We had a Macintosh Apple brand before that. We held onto that computer until maybe 5 years ago. It functioned very well and they had a great deal of games they didn't want to part with after we bought the Gateway.
Unfortunately about 5 years after we bought the Macintosh, Apple went into that dark period where it was hard to find programs being developed for them so we were kinda forced to getting a new computer that also played with aol dial up better.

Ha! It would have to be retroactively. My kids are long out of college now.
Yeah, MJ just gave me the Willies.
As a young boy he had a lovely voice but he flatout creeped me out as an adult. My kids even now have no interest in as a performer. I understand that is many peoples draw to cruises. Just can't be reached.Our cruise was the first time that I’ve felt truly disconnected during the past 15 years. Until I opened my email...
My DS doesn't look at email but because he oversees multiple departments, has many managers and supervisors under his charge along with 250-300 general employees at times things go really wrong and they want him to know before his boss is told. He asks for a text or a flat out emergency a call. So far they have been pretty good at differentiating between what they can handle, what will keep along with what is SOS worthy. Sadly his normal days off...not so much.
Not that CRT is easy but I've found since BOG opened it took the pressure off CRT. Ohana my DD had to really work at. Even Homecoming in Disney Springs was hard to get in the right timeframe but she finally got it. Then came Irma and we missed our reservation because we were on Lockdown at the resort.
Our first world problem.

I got Starbucks at Target. But I did the online order thing so I wouldn't wander aimlessly through for an hour. Especially since I have to start working again...

I think moving the welcome show affected CRT more than BOG did because it made BOG the only PPO reservation that gave you an advantage at Mine Train

Maybe there is a convention on that specific date?
Prices can skyrocket when those align.
I remember in february during my cochlear convention, the entire Coronado was booked.. and the price went from 150 a night to 300 a night for the last rooms.
The Edison group was meeting, 5 other companies were meeting as well as the one we were (Cochlear)

Minnie’s Holiday Dine is the only reservation that we’ve ever had trouble with. 2 consecutive years we couldn’t get it. One time slot finally opened, but it was 15 minutes before the dessert party, so obviously had to pass. Needless to say, I was able to secure it for my sister’s trip.lol. Maybe springtime is easier than Thanksgiving week or week after.Ha! It would have to be retroactively. My kids are long out of college now.

Could be.. I’ll play around with dates this week.
Regarding weather in Mexico..
The first week of December would be better travel dates for me than Thanksgiving week..but I’m worried about Mexico and Belize being too cold to swim. I could barely get in the water this past Thanksgiving. But...I really want to see the ship and destinations (specifically NOLA) all dressed up for Christmas. I think I have to stick with my plans and choose warmth.

Please don’t remind me. I haven’t bought one thing yet. Not even an Easter outfit.

That's great. Hope they open up similar venues up here. Skee Ball was my mother's favorite arcade game, at a beachside arcade area (no longer there). I'm going back many years regarding this memory.

One of my first clerical jobs was working for a manager of an accounting dept. When he went on vacation, he really got away--like northern Maine woods and northern Canada. He'd go hunting once a year, and he and his pals would pack very deep into the woods and mountains.
He told his office that he'd call in exactly once during his vacation, so they all had to be sure they had their questions ready for that one call. Anyway, he'd go to such remote areas that there was no phone service (this was well before cell phones even came out). So they used this old radio telephone (I think that's what he told me) and they'd have to hand crank it up, and it would (somehow work). I don't think it was a field radio like the Army would use years ago, but it "might" have beamed off solar? They'd have maybe 20 minutes for calls. That was all he could stand on his vacation. (I tried to find an image of it but couldn't, but I have seen pix before--it was a big tall thing, not smaller like the field radios in boxes were.)
