I don't remember seeing any of the original runs of the series when I was a kiddo, but, I remember watching and liking the reruns several years later.
The only other series of the show I also got into was Next Generation, which I also started watching a few years after it first came out in syndication. It came on at 11p and I would stay up late to watch it. :)

Ours is coming up in 32 days. I start packing at 30. It's a short 5 day trip. Getting excited. We will skip Hollywood Studio's with so much down. And possibly animal kingdom. We like Epcot's food and wine. I love to try small bites of the food. And Magic Kingdom for rides and shows. We like the shows in Epcot. France is my favorite. I love the music to that show.

I hear ya! Really hectic day today, so I came home and we took the dog for a walk, then hubby had to go to a wedding rehersal so it was time for "me time". I filled the bathtub (piled high with bubbles) and relaxed with a beer and listened to some Disney instrumental music. By the time that bath was done I was really relaxed.

Did the beer come from "Bed Bath Beer & Beyond"....?! o_O :D ;) :)

You're still not getting the point.
It almost feels like you're giving excuses to people who dont perform BASIC HYGIENE that was taught everywhere and reinforced with signs everywhere. And then claiming that all is because "you need to man up and your immune system do your work".
These people are NOT BABIES.

Next are you going to say that its ok for everyone with lethal illness like the korean chicken flu, the Ebola and other deadly illnesses prance around in airports hugging, shaking hands.touching everything other people do.. because we need to "man up" and "get our immune system to work" ?
There is a huge difference in being paranoic (aka disinfect everything every 5 minutes with super strong sprays, using heavy chemicals on your skin to "clean up", using masks every day. Than using basic hygiene.
And I'm not even talking about people who dont even flush or stain the seat with pee/poo everywhere because they are aholes... :banghead:

I've told you a million gazillion times never to exaggerate. I do hope, in spite of what you think, that no one with Korean chicken flu (whatever that is) or Ebola ever comes up to you in an airport and kisses you on the lips. So I guess I wasn't going to say that next. Let's not over-react shall we?

I believe that I do not now and have never concerned myself about stuff like that, yet, for some unexplained reason have not been made ill to my knowledge. I have never had food poisoning for example. I have had a stomach flu occasionally in my life, but, I refuse to dramatize it to the degree of calling it poisoning. I'll leave that to those that need that type of "important" definition to make themselves feel better. I have never cared one way or the other if someone washes their hands before leaving a bathroom because if there were really a need to, they would know it and that would be the 60% that do. I do not care if they touched the handle on the door or the toilet seat with their hands. I do take exception to the people that use their foot/shoe to flush a toilet instead of their hands and then if I do it the way it was designed I get to have the residue that their shoes pick up from the floor. I far more disgusting place then their hand.

The entire point of what I said was that the overreaction, be it mild or be it extreme, is still an over-reaction. It is a statement to the rest of us that you are pristine, contain no germs of your own and are pure as the driven snow because you washed your damn hands every time you did something human and re-leaved yourselves. It means the you defy the findings of science that making sure your immune system is given the means to fight the outside bacteria's that are everywhere and believe what the soap companies sell you that says to clean and disinfect your way through life. Fine, that is your business, but, do not sit there in your superior chair and decide that I am less then able to understand what makes things work while you have the answers. You, like the rest of us are merely victims of large marketing machines bent on scaring you into buying things that you don't need in an effort to prevent your own body from doing it's job. Washing you hands was only a minor part of the exposure we get on a daily basis, but, you folks have made it sound like those of us that don't worry about it as much are guilty of spreading the plague.

Please don't make it sound like I would ever leave a bathroom with my hands covered with fecal matter and seek you out to stick my fingers in your face. Or anyone else would do that, for that matter.

I'm with Cesar on this one. It simply is impossible to know how many germs have gotten on your hands when you use the bathroom. Regardless of whether you yourself get sick or not, you're touching a lot of stuff outside the bathroom, which other people who might not have as good immune systems may get exposed to. It's not necessary to obsessively wash all day, but washing after you use the bathroom is just a good idea. It also keeps the general human population healthy.

It is quite amazing how easily germs spread. I took a science class several semesters ago. We did a hand washing experiment, where we thoroughly washed our hands and then took a swab of our hands to see how much bacteria was on them We then touched stuff in the classroom and took another swab. It was so gross. If there were that many germs just touching things in the classroom, then I am definitely washing my hands when I go to the bathroom.

But it's not just me saying this. The CDC and the WHO both recommend regular hand washing, especially after using the bathroom. Numerous studies find that there are germs on faucets, toilet handles, and door handles in the bathroom, so it's not just a matter of getting something on your hands. Those germs are already there. It's important to wash your hands, and quite frankly, If Cesar was seeing a lot of people in the bathroom on a cruise ship, which is a contained area, I can understand why he was concerned. Failure to wash one's hands does in fact spread disease.

That is abosolutely true.

Speaking of which, why do we always say "Good morning". There is nothing good about mornings.

I had to get up at 6:30 this morning. I thought to myself, "Boy, I can't wait to go to bed tonight." :joyfull: I try to wake up at 9 or 9:30 on days where I'm off work and have later classes. It gives me time to work out or do homework before leaving for class. Saturdays and Sundays are for catching up on sleep.

I was also watching Gilmore Girls and I think I found my favorite Lorelai line: "5? They have one of those in the morning too?" :hilarious:
