Mary Diamond Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Good News! Good News!!! After a bit of Bad News ~ My Dearest Mark requires shoulder surgery this Friday for a torn rotator cuff and SLAP tear (both in the right shoulder) ~ too much volleyball, and we aren't as young as we used to be. The Good News ~ the surgeon allowed him to still go on Vacation! He has to wear a sling 8 hours a day, but I am happy he will still be able to attend. Oooh, shiny!

Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I've a question about hot drinks...might there be any hot water around for tea? If there aren't enough kettles making a trip down to be included merely for hot "grog", I'll bring one. As much as I love the smell of coffee in the morning, my stomach prefers something a tad lighter. While you may not want to make the walk in the mornings, I will have hot water inside the fort on the parade grounds as I am doing herbal teas.... i'll bring my official "pyrate solar cook book."..lots of wonderful recipes.... for hot tea:.....mix tea with water...pour in cup...set in hot sun...and wait for lamb:....tie securely to ground....and wait for roast pork:...tie securley to ground....and wait Muhahaha...that was enlightening M.A.d'Dogge. I try the tea bit daily at work but in reverse (office is very cold). Thanks for the offer Goddess! I may take yah up on hot water in the morning if I miss out on it at breakfast. Silkie - Mine is probably a cup or two smaller, and isn't period accurate (stainless steel). I like yours though...I've seen quite a few on ebay that around similarly shaped. Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Jim Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Ah, but I'll give you an "arm back" guarantee. (What you do with the arm is your business.) Would he then be "re-armed?" Mind you he might try to hit you over the head with said limb, thus becoming "armed and dangerous." "Pack that in my sea-chest; I'm sure there's elbow room in there..." Of course you could go out on a limb start your own game show, "Stump the Pyrate." Or would that be "Stump, the Pyrate." Avoid all of this Mark. After all "forewarned is forearmed" as they say...

Patrick Hand Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 OH BOY... this is gettin' interestin'.... Carol was going to use her American Advantage Miles to get me to PiP.... but when she tried to get a reservation, they told her that there wasn't an available flight for the days I wanted to go... But Carol had already looked up if there were flights, and told the person at American... they told her that there weren't any available flight for people using Advantage Miles.... So American Airways is being a bunch poopy-butts... the Advantage Miles are only good sometimes... they don't say that when they try to get you to fly with them.... Anyway... I might be getting a flight with Continental Airlines.... Hey... nothing like waiting until the last minute for this sorta thing..... American Airlines is a buncha Poopy-Butts.......

That's no unusual with airlines these days. The frequent flyer seats cost them money and since they're bleeding dough, they are pulling back on everything that costs them money -- peanuts, pillows, and frequent flyer trade-ins. Spirit! did the same thing with us going to Port Royal. Thankfully, they didn't end up charging our mileage plan once we finally worked everything our so we got two free trips to Jamaica in the space of two months.

Silkie McDonough Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 hurricane, you may be right but I like Patrick better so of course ...he's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hurricane is right. The frequent flier programs are not like they used to be. They only reserve a few (like 4 or less I think one airline told me) seats on each plane for frequent flier miles trade-in and once they're gone, they're gone. Unfortunately this means you're usually out of luck if you wait until the last minute to try and book a flight with them.

Patrick Hand Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Yeah, airlines are cutting back.... no Honny Roasted Peanuts....and they charge you for your baggage..... But to get people to fly with them instead of another airline, they offer incentives.... such as....Frequent Flyer Miles... So they make their money when someone flies with them instead of searching for the least expensive Airline... It's when they won't honor their agreement that they become Poopie-Butts.....
