5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 4

[ohiominnie]

Sorry... I was on the phone... probably the first 'real' work I've done all day!

Ok, since when is it ok for "real life responsibilities" to interfere with "DIS time?"

Wow... we still haven't made it to the milestone post today... I'm amazed. So, maybe we can get our post count up... here's a post count booster...

The 'DCL dress code' is getting some good mileage on the cruise boards today... what's the concensus here??? Anybody?

(And see, its not shameless post-count-boosting... its CRUISE related!)

I am very disappointed with the new policy as I like the concept of dressing for dinner - not "formal" everyday, but at least something special. I wear jeans to go to my favourtie Sports bar when I am on land. When I am at Sea, spending $$$$, I want to be special and look "pretty".

Jeans = 0
Dress = 6 (Pirate night does not count!)

 

[ohiominnie]

And I have to get dressed up for this wedding!! YUCK! I think I'll go in jeans and say "if it's good enough for DCL, it's good enough for YOU!"

 

[chip&dale&fun]

Sorry - don't do bustles.....

I guess the question isn't if YOU will bow to the new dress code....it's what do you think of *other* ppl following it?

You can still look pretty, but what will you think if *other* ppl show up in jeans? After all, they may think they are spending $$$$ and they should be able to dress how they want.

Whose job is it to put the bride's bustle up between the wedding and the reception? Now...I understand the "best man."

See what a little creative quote editing can do...

But actually, its the maid/matron of honor... not a 'wedding guest' (not trying to downgrade your role, but it certainly isn't up to you to be her butt-buttoner.)

In terms of the number of groomsmen... where I come from groomsmen ARE ushers... that's their entire purpose.

Shameless - post boosting question

Where can I find gold, flat pumps, that don't hurt my feet for a reasonable price, in the next 3 weeks?

Related to November Cruise....

For the fun of it - I was reading the current dress code debate - flip over here and discover - another dresscode/etiquette type question...

And they are ussherly necessary!

EXACTLY EXACTLY! I'm with you. I want to be a *wedding guest*...and actually, I don't even want to be that. but that's a whole 'nuther story!!

And where I come from, groomsmen=ushers too!

hey, why night - now that I've gotten my first milestone - I need to add to it!

 

[ohiominnie]

Yeah but---(she addes with emphasis) Disney Magic is based on the charm of the ocean liners of old....They did not wear jeans...
(course they did not have internet, kids clubs or scuba - but hey - )

That's what 'inspired' me to post it here... to get an answer 'among friends' (yeah right, that bus smiley might come out again before long).

For me, I started cruising when I was 7 years old, and then, you never set foot in the dining room without being 'dressed' for dinner... (and kids didn't go on cruises). I'm still pretty much a throwback in that sense.

Besides, to me, jeans are 'winter clothes'... I put them away some time in March, and don't take them out again til November or so. (Except to ride the motorcycle).

Hey, what's up? The boards are really slow...

Hey, what's up? The boards are really slow...

she says as she shows up right in time for a milestone post!

Since my 16th anniversary is 2 short days away - Let me see if I can remember what my very proper mother had me follow in regards to ushers...Groomsmen do double as attendants usally to match the numbers of bridemaids...But, ushers are used to fill out the guest/groomsmen/ ratio (I think it's 1:50 - we invited 250 so in addition to the 1 best man 3 groomsmen, we had 2 additional ushers who did not stand up with the grom...

 

[chip&dale&fun]

slow boards = no milestone post for me === but hey - this time I tried.

 

[kikipug]

I just noticed.... I got the TOP of page 1200... that's a milestone!

AND 18000....
