Good Afternoon, Everyone!!

*waves* I am working on the project from hell at work so I have to come over to the board every so often to regain my sanity. (or what I had left of it anyway)

"I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in."

I'm here...tired but I'm here!

Hiya. Feelin' a little ill. Don't touch me.

Hello, Everyone!! Sorry you aren't feeling well, CrystalSmith. I have spent the last week sick with strep throat, so I know how you feel. Hang in there. Hope you feel better really soon!!

Hi - I as here earlier lurking around but didn't have anything worthwhile to say. I'm wondering who the 22 anonymous lurkers are. Wish they'd drop in and introduce themselves - it's always nice to meet new people.

Back again -- yeah about the lurkers -- come out, come out whoever you are. This is the place to be.

Besides, sometimes I can feel a little self-conscious when we start getting a little silly around here, and I see that there are dozens of silent, faceless people just sitting back and watching.

Personally, I don't mind having the "lurkers". I have been one on ocassion, sorta like Sue mentioned---wanna see what's going on, but don't feel like I have anything worthwhile to say. Besides, if they don't want sand kicked in their faces, they shouldn't be at our playground.

Would it be wrong to install a bed thread on the board so that I didnt have to get up to come here?

...


OOOOoooo... What about a water bed thread?

...

Nah, too 70s, right?

-M

I am here too. Have a good day everyone!

Some people may get motion sickness.

"Leap and the net will appear." Knowing me, I'd fall
off of the bed. I'm a tosser.

HUGS

I made it here again...not too sure if I want to stay up though..didn't sleep well and got a headache! But good morning to everyone!

Good Afternoon, Everyone!!

Heya Bubba. Yer icon is looking mighty hansdome...

Crystal Smith Checking in.

Checking in... Checking it out... And checking it off the list of stuff I felt like doing!

<large checkmark>

<wink>

-M

Thanks. It was just something I threw on. I've been meaning to change it for ages now.

<Mandeville looks between Bubba and Crystal a couple of times>

<He pulls out his 'squeeze box' and begins to play>

"When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza-pie..."

-M

Mmmmm. Pizza....(((droool)))

Mmmm. Pasghetti....It must be dinner time.

lol. The source of the inspiration. lol. Touche!

lol.

...

lol.

Er...(((blush)))

<bursts out laughing>

Spaghetti, Pizza... Not nearly as 'hot' a topic as Amore, but still, wonderful attempts to change the subject. lol.

...

Wait... Does this count as 'shipping?

-M

Yes, I think that would qualify as shipping. Who are we shipping now?

Well that depends, are we done with Bubba and Crystal yet?

oh, btw Mandeville, did I ever tell you you remind me of a boy I knew in college? Why fiddle-dee-dee. (fans self with huge ruffle-y fan.)

lol. Who is 'shipping now?

Background music swells, and we hear

The Loooove Boooooat

I'd have whoever it was sing more, but that's all the song I remember

Meme

Here Meme... I just made copies for everyone for the next sing-a-long in the G-rated section of the bus. It ain't Cole Porter, but it'll do... (What a great shipping theme song!)


Jack Jones - Love Boat Theme
==============================

Love, exciting and new
Come aboard, were expecting you
Love, lifes sweetest reward
Let it flow, it floats back to you

Love Boat soon will be making another run
The Love Boat promises something for everyone
Set a course for adventure
Your mind on a new romance

Love wont hurt anymore
Its an open smile on a friendly shore
Yes love...
Its love...

Love Boat soon will be making another run
The Love Boat promises something for everyone
Set a course for adventure
Your mind on a new romance

Love wont hurt anymore
Its an open smile on a friendly shore
Its love...
Its love...
Its love...
Its the Love Boat
Its the Love Boat

OMG I check in to see the Love Boat lyrics. LOL!!! I just love what I find here.

Yeah, a lot of what I find lately is pretty rare and wonderful too.

Oi

Good Afternoon, Everyone!!! I was just stopping by to say hello!! Hello!!

Hi! this reminded me a a song I used to listen to on Radio Ahs. when I was a kid. It's all about how to say hello in different languages, here's a portion:

'Hello' by the animaniacs
"...In Germany it's "guten Tag"
Which also means "good day"
"Ni hao" is exactly how
Hello sounds in Taipei.
In Portugal it's "ola"
In Arabic, "salem"
Saying "zravo" means hello
In Macedonian..."

anywho, I'll let you get back to your shipping.

Hello, hello hello. What a wonderful word, hello.

"HhhhhhhhheeeeeeeEEEEELLLLLlllllllllOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" - Me saying hello from my rollercoaster of a day.

-M

P.S. - "Monkland: Where all the 'Ships are on the Love Boat!"

Ooooh, Gopher! (((Swoons)))

ROFLOL HELLO!
This is a blast from the past. I actually remember half the words.

Totally loved that show....Gopher was my favorite...anyway I am checking in and wow...Bubba and Crystal Smith are shipping...who is next??? Hey I'm married but I would dream about Adrian or Randy as my cabinmate...LOL

lol. I always liked .. was it Julie? The cute little blonde? Was she Capt. Stubbing's daughter or something? It's been forever since I've seen 'the boat'. (I liked 'Doc' too!) It was always on before Fantasy Island. A good Friday night line up.

And I'd be next if I had a good 'shipping parnter. lol. But that's a tall order. I've got a lot of love to giv, but I am not 'easy' - to live with, to deal with, whatever. I got a letter from an old internet 'flirt-friend' from years ago. Ad it's just amazing how much baggage a person can stir up in just one little letter.

I like the idea of the boat. You get to leave all that other 'stuff' on shore and sail off in to 'uncharted' with someone new. that whole fresh start thing is a real nice idea.

It's just a shame it's so much harder in reality than it is in fiction.

Where's Issac when you need a drink around here anyway?

lol.

-M

M-

You would make someone a good shipping partner. I am sure you aren't as hard to live with and deal with as you think. When the right person comes along, they will over look all of your "faults". The boat is a good idea, and I, too, need that drink.

Isaac's by the pool, flirting w/ one of the passengers. I think he might get lucky.

(((drinkin' a Shirley Temple and flirting w/ Gopher))) Don't tell Randy, 'kay?

I wouldn't think of telling Randy...my lips are sealed!!

G´day, mates!

Enjoy the shipping weekend.
