The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

[seahawk7]

Here's our trip outline for next summer. Day one drive to Ga and get some sleep. Day 2 KSC, Day 3 Astronaut Hall of fame grab provisions maybe a quick stop in DTD and check into condo. 2 or 3 days Universal. Here's where I'm not sure what to do. 9 park days, 3 MK with BOG, CP and the plaza, 3 EPCOT days not sure about dining, 2 DHS days HBD Fantasmic dining and one AK day, plus add the water parks or just do 10 park days. Either way we'll take 2 days "off" DTD and outlet shopping. What do you think so far?

Do the 10 park days because 1 more day costs very little then swim at the condo. You could also go one day to the waters parks but the price of admission is comparable to the water park and fun option so might as well get that option if you really want to do the water parks.

My son doesn't believe this, but I remember a time when there were no girls and boys jeans. We all wore the same Levi's and GWG's. Fit my brothers just fine. Me, not so much after grade five.

Thankfully, Brooke decided nothing was going to come between her and her Calvins, and chick jeans (literally Chic jeans ) started to flood the market.

Nope, not for me--ever. I had to wear girls' jeans only. Whenever I tried on a pair of boys' jeans, the waist was always too big, and the hips were always too small!

Gotta run! Time to start cooking for my army. 2 teen boys! Anybody want my food bill?

No thanks

You are always welcome here. We all have strong opinions on topics and we all just move on. We don't hold grudges on Chit Chat. But what we all realize is if we put a strong opinion out there we must also accept that we will get strong opinions back especially when it involves our country in distress. We all just pull up our big boy or big girl pants and keep moving forward. Ya know we love ya.

I agree.

Unfortunately, they did have a tendency to shrink up after washing. And if you made the mistake of hemming them before the first wash, you were stuck with a discolored "old" hemline when you let them down.

It was a fad in our school to paint our cords, seniors, only....I made a few dollars doing that, as I was an art student.

 

[seahawk7]

Yep, mine were in the water before they thought about walking.

Water babies!

So I'm curious, was this person someone you liked?

Yes a friend actually. She needed credit for a flight.

They had unsweetened tea on the cruise but it was a powder mixture.

Indeed

 

[MinnieM123]

Well, Since I have riled many people with my point of view. I am going to apologize and go my way.
I suppose this is the part where I am definitively not welcome here.


Thank you all for all the fun and comments and I hope you all have a nice life in the future.

I might be posting on the forum, but just not here.

But, but . . . you didn't get to read all the replies in this thread. Plus, I just got home from work about 45 minutes ago and was just now catching up on everyone's responses to your comments; and I also added my own, (prior to reading your post above). Please reconsider your decision.

Shockingly, another movie I have never seen.

One day in the parks last trip, Mike and Tam-Tam were singing "Let's go fly a kite".
And I'm like, "What is that song?"

They just looked at me like I was nuts.

I can't believe you've never seen Mary Poppins! It's one of my all-time favorite movies!!

Powder coffee and powder tea both make my tummy hurt. Neither beverage is difficult to make so I don't get it.

I agree. But instant coffee is good mixed into hot chocolate or sprinkled on vanilla ice cream.

So nice

It did have that unique sound. Just like cordouroy pants. Remember those?

Love corduroy pants!

My Dad was a Commercial Insulation Contractor. I was addicted to Duct Tape long before it became vogue.
Hemming jeans with Duct Tape that didn't budge was God Sent. Then after washed enough times they either were the correct length or safe to hem.

Decades ago I should have written a book on the many uses for Duct Tape.

The dad from My Big Fat Greek Wedding would have bought that book.

ROYS!!! Those were my favorite!!

 

[seahawk7]

Yes I second that! I enjoy your posts elsewhere.

What I meant was I enjoyed your posting on other threads as well. I didn't mean I don't like your posts here. I read what I posted and I was like, "What!!!" I hope I didn't hurt your feelings it was just bad sentence composition.

I meant to say all of you, who are interested in real life in the 50's onward. I hope this doesn't sound pushy. Just thought you might find it so different from today, if you aren't interested that's okay too. I'm not great at posting, as this earlier post will attest. I'm trying, and so glad for your patience. Now, I want to sit back and listen to what is going on in your lives.
