And...........the heat wave is over. It is beautiful out today. Forecast for here is about 90 but with low low humidity. I'll take that kind of weather every day. And now Karen does not have to put up with cranky Jay until the next heat wave.

One that comes to mind ended with a 15yo Jason drunk on a few 40s of OE and banging on the windows of McDonalds (which was closed) at 3 in the morning screaming that I wanted a cheeseburger. That did not work so I moved on to the pizza place down the street from my house. No pizza. I went home and threw up all over my self and my bedroom anyway.

Can you bribe someone to cover for you? If it comes down to it, my advice is something my Dad always told me... "You were looking for a job when you found this one, who says you can't find another"

BTW I kick ass at Trivial Pursuit so when we meet bring it on Lambert! To further hijack my wife's thread....I have a great trivial pursuit story for you. Karen is probably laughing already.. When we were still in the relatively early part of our dating, we decided to have a trivial pursuit night at my house with just the two of us. Of course we were both talking a lot of shit and predicting a landslide victory. Well, we played, and somehow I managed to win. I got all proud and pointed to the front of the box. I said "See that....Genius edition....just like me...a genius". Karen broke out laughing immediately. I had no idea what was so goddam funny. Hell, I just won the contest of the mind. Who was she to be laughing. She pointed to the box and particulary to the word genius. Only it wasn't genius. It was GENUS edition. "Yup, you're a real genus sweetie". I still cant live that one down.

If you are going to go the non-resort route........your options are endless. You could even do a ceremony on a beach far away from any hotels if you wanted. I contacted these people when we were looking for photographers and they also have options for creating a wedding for you wherever you want. Wedding Photography by Michael Maurus . You might even want to have them send you their info packet just to get some ideas. Some other location ideas........ - Akumal. There is a cannon house overlooking the bay that is popular for weddings. There are a few nice restaurants to do a reception also - Any of the beaches along the Tulum beach road. -Cozumel. You never hear about many weddings out there on this board. I have seen photos of places on the eastern shore that would be a stunning backdrop for a ceremony.

That sounds awesome! Where in PR were you? Any ideas on where you want to get married in PR? Just curious because me and my wife Karen are all about PR.

Please let me know if you have been there recently. My schedule is pretty tight. We arrive in Cancun at 9 am and then 7 of our guests will be there at 1.....AAAAAARRRGG! I have been to Cancun 6 times and never knew that they had a freakin wal-mart!!! I guess I never needed anything from there before now!!! Awesome for extra oot stuff and stuff for table decor, and extra baby pool toys!!!!!Then when I'm done Ill just give the toys to other kids:) Walmart is about 1 hour by bus from the Grand Oasis or 30 minutes or so by taxi. Honestly, if you arrive in Cancun at 9, it would be a small miracle to get all that done and back to your hotel by 1.

If all else fails and let's say chartering a plane is the only viable option... I know I would put as much money as I could towards helping with the cost. If we got enough of us behind an effort like that, I bet we could absorb a good portion of the cost for them. A $10,000 bill for them to handle alone is astronomical. But, if all of us, their friends and family chipped in whatever they could...that could become a possibility. Ann..if that is the only option that looks possible...don't count it out before coming to all of us for help. I can pledge my support for what I can part with.

Hmm I guess I should try to come up with something else. I think your Karmic account is overflowing already with all that you guys do. The only good deed I have done today so far was to refrain from beating the life out of the asshole in front of me at the gas station. They came within inches of hitting my car and then gave me the finger when I honked to warn them they were about to hit me. I promise I will try to do something today though.

I am dreading having to leave work today. We don't have AC at home and its about 97 degrees out and humid as fuck.

Quote: Originally Posted by StephanieMN Honestly is seems like driving is your best option. Would it be possible for you 3 to drive the RV here and than ask someone else to help drive it back? Thank fly that person( people) home? Lots of fussing-I know. Someone has to work on that tele-porting thing. Good luck! That is exactly what I was just thinking!! I love that idea

What about flying first class on a commercial flight? -You would be much more comfortable. -It's a lot quicker than the land travel options -It's a lot cheaper than chartering a plane I would also imagine that if you told the flight crew your situation, they would bend over backwards to help you out. SCRATCH ALL THAT. JUST SAW YOUR REPLY. I think taking a train as far as you can without transferring to busses and whatnot, and then driving or having someone picking you up would be a good option.

That is too funny. Our little devil Beagle Chloe does the same thing. That mischievous look out of the corner of her eye while she is doing something wrong. And then the race to finish whatever she should not be eating before I get there to take it away. Little devils they are.

When we were shopping around for my ring just about every mall jewelery store we went into had them in the store. Usually tungsten and titanium on display. We ended up buying mine at Beldens Jewelers. The sizing on them is very tricky since they cannot be sized like gold or platinum. I originally ordered what they thought was my size and when it came in it was too big. They had to re-order the ring in about 3 different sizes until we found an exact size that worked for me. If you order it online just make sure you can exchange it if the sizing is not right.

Stub hub is our usual go to for Yankees tickets. Other ideas.... 1. Craigslist for NYC 2. Call the stadium box office. Sometimes they release tickets a few days before the game 3. Scalpers outside of the stadium or do what we do and pre-game it real hard before going in and sit in the bleachers

If there is nothing material you can think of for a gift......an experience is the best way to go. -Get him a certificate for a day before the wedding massage -tickets to his favorite sports team -tickets to a concert -take him on a day trip to a place of his choosing -flying lessons (surprisingly cheap) -etc, etc. Any of those would work for most guys.

Happy Happy Anniversary Jamy! Hope you guys have a great day.
