What about MY cruise ?
 
OK folks; I have read about and envied HB's cruise, MelZ's cruise, visited with my new friends who were about to embark on the TOTV cruise, and today I bid a "bon voyage" to my sister, her husband, and two other couples who are doing a NYC-Caribbean cruise departing today.
Now, don't you agree that I've had enough of this and should, also, have a cruise, too? Contributions are greatly appreciated and should be hand-delivered to Rokinronda and Ed as soon as possible. All who are generous enough to contribute will receive one of those fantastic, wonderful, terrific wide-mouth frogs that you use at the kitchen sink for the brillo pads and are sold at all the outdoor tourist-trap flea markets. Doesn't sound good enough for you? Well, it's probably better than the banking bail-out (oh, oh! that's another topic so please disregard).

Really looking forward to the next TOTV cruise because by then I will be a permanent resident. anchors aweigh!

Hi tkret,

I have just read your post.

I agree with you 100% it is definitely your time to go on a cruise. :thumbup:

Just let us know when and where you want to go and we will see what we can do for you.

Knowing the Peeps they do not want anyone to feel sad or left out.

Ball is in your court now - so to speak that is.

Thank you, HB, for your kindness and understanding. There are some TOTVers, like lovely KathieI and RR, who would like to send me out to sea on a cruise; but, I think it would be in a dingy during a hurricane. I just love those gals! :laugh:
But, you are real sweet to take up my cause.....so, when are the contributions coming in?

Hyacinth Bucket 10-03-2008 03:19 PM

tkret, I can not believe that sweet retiring, shy Kathie would want to do that to you.

As for RR - I do not think so either. She would rather go dancin than send you out on a raft in the middle of a huricaine.

Since you did not respond to where you want to go, I shall let my imagination run wild (be careful - you do not know where you will end up) and choose a destination for you.

We will see what happens.

Do you own a tux? do you feel okay going "au natural"?

HB,
Be careful of those two. IMHO, they are The Villages' version of "Thelma and Louise" :eek:

...and for part two of your posting... the "au natural" part is an ugly thought and as for the "tux" part I will reply as Kramer said on "Seinfeld" when he claimed that the tuxedo he is wearing is "a rental but I've had it for 15 years". :popcorn:

I want my money back.:cus:

I contributed to your danged cruise fund and didn't get the handy dandy frog for my brillo pad.

I think Ronda took my money and went to Katie Belles.

Oh Yeah, Graciegirl. I haven't gone on my cruise, yet, but I have heard that Ronda and Ed have been spending a lot of cash at The Cattlebaron lately. And what's this thing I'm hearing that they have been seen in a new BMW?
hm-mmmmmm :shrug:

Hyacinth Bucket 10-03-2008 04:33 PM

I don't believe it GG.
I repeat
I don't believe it GG.

True you know who just got a new car, but I don't want to mention any names here.

As for the other person at the Cattlebaron - we will just have to check out there videos to see the truth. Do you have the dates?

Cassie, what do you mean "a few months"? I'll be in TV in a month. And, also, I'm wondering about your comment of shipping me out to sea. Why does the Neptune Society come to mind....

Be careful, Cousin, or I'll have to tell stories about YOUR side of the family :duck:

Hyacinth Bucket 10-03-2008 06:56 PM

tkret, I just checked out Neptune Society - interesting.

If I understand you and Cassie correctly - you think she wants to throw your ashes overboard?

I do not think Cassie is that type of person, she has such a beautiful smile.

But then again ....

I'm just concerned that she won't do me in first but will just toss me overboard to feed the fishes. You don't understand....you see, her side of the family are the scary ones! She likes to portray herself as kind and gentle but did you know that she can filet a cod in less than 2 minutes? Also, you know that alligator purse she owns? She didn't buy it, she made it herself!
Why do you think her brother, Jimmy, joined the Marines? USMC is a piece of cake. Oh, boy, I'd better clam up now because they are everywhere!

Hyacinth Bucket 10-03-2008 07:34 PM

Do tell tkret. I did not know that about Cassie -

With a background like that - not to sure what to say.
