dam1050 Posted May 10, 2005 #176 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Well I say dam1050 is in trouble now- not only calls me old spoiled wine-turned-vinegar, but ruins my cruise on the Infinity to boot! Don't y'all think he should have to pay for my next cruise as compensation for mental anguish?:D And Dave, I won't be on a cruise with these guys anytime soon, so what's the rest of the story? At the very least, given my trauma inflicted by you, I should at least get a good laugh at your expense! Oh, dear .... now I've done it ! Talk about "mad cow" disease, or hoof in mouth .... You have to excuse me, we get a lot of rain here you see ... Should I pull out all at once or very slowly ? How does one spell extrication ??? I was under the false impression you were sailing with the Bucket brigade on their upcoming Crystal crawl ... Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazerboy Posted May 10, 2005 #178 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Tedson, you're catching on so nicely!:) Dave, no, as much as I'd love to be helicoptered off the QE2 to fly in directly back to San Francisco and join the Harmony for another 12 days, neither my work load nor my Visa card will stand the extra time away. I just happened to meet the gang and become part of the infamous (o.k., now that's a stretch) C6. And I've really never met DESTCRZ, although we sailed on the same ship 13 years ago, so if we met, names were never exchanged.;) (Now THERE'S a way to start a rumor!:eek: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I can just see it now .... Beav & Destcrz waving their tiaras at you as you descend the ropes from the heli to the Crystal Harmony ... champagne glasses held high ... everyone grabbing at you at once, wanting a taste of that royalty you've just experienced on the QEII (not to mention the royalty you are about to experience.....) As to rumours --- no need to implicate yourself in any with Mike --- we'll do well at getting a few rumours flying through cyberspace about you without any help whatsoever, I can guarantee you ! Dave from BRITISH Columbia (that's in Canada you know .... one of the Colonies I believe) p.s. -- what's with the "IF" we met business ??? I wasn't born yesterday!

Blazerboy Posted May 10, 2005 #180 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Could we please elevate this conversation to an appropriate level for me to read on my executive style computer located in an exclusive postal code?:D My great aunt lived in Vancouver for years, my aunt and cousins are from Montreal, and my family is originally from Nova Scotia (The sticks- Pictu) so I'm better versed in the Northern neighbors than most. And I'm trying to recruit for this DISASTER of a brown-water-in-the-tub six day sailing from Vancouver to S.F., so if I can't get BEAV et al to join, I might have to start working on you, Dave. That'll be your punishment.:p And for the record, I'm much like that legend of the stage and screen, Doris Day- oft quoted line about her in Hollywood: "I knew her BEFORE she was a virgin!"- so, while I have a past, it is just that. Now I'm just a simple house frau with a dog and station wagon who whips up a mean Chicken Marbella right out of Silver Palate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEAV Posted May 11, 2005 #184 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Blazerboy & Dam1050, Best of luck with your hilarious, on-going, International war-of-words! Having the pleasure of now knowing you both (I must get around!) all I can say is, may the best Queen win! I think you've each met your match when it comes to a good ol' cat fight !!!! Tedson, YES! you're coming along just fine! You just might get to keep that Q card in your pocket after all !!! Bdjam, Yes, sorry you missed the first coffee clatch. We've already advanced to a cocktail soiree at the last gathering (Monday at Pier 35) so who knows what'll be next. Pity you were suffering in Hilo during our first gathering!

DESTCRZ Posted May 11, 2005 #186 Share Posted May 11, 2005 I'll tell this story cause I want to make sure it is told TRUTHFULLY AND CORRECTLY. Dam1050 is well known to be THE night-owl of Vancouver - seldom do his lights go out before 3am-4am - therefore, seldom does his coffee pot get turned on before noon!!! . . .you will NEVER see a post on any of these board from dam1050 with an AM time stamp!!! BEAV and I did know that last Wednesday little Davey (dam1050) had made the statement that he intended to "do" lunch in the Lido on the Oosterdam. I guess a point of discussion here would be "what time is lunch"? To most of the civilized world (or civilised, so Dave will know what I mean) lunch means noonish. Given his natural tendency and habits, we knew there was no way he would fulfill his desire to "do" lunch in the Lido if we didn't provide some assistance. BEAV and I chat daily (Mon-Wed - BEAV only works 3 normal days a week - lucky huh?) During one of our normal email exchanges, we commented to each other that we should give Dave a wake-up call to make sure he was able to fulfill his destiny and "do" lunch in the Lido. BEAV calls me - we conference Vancouver in . . .poor Paul (dam1050's LEGAL husband) answers the phone and BEAV proceeds to say "good morning, this is Holland America in Seattle, am I speaking with Dave?" Paul mumbled something about no - wait a minute . . . we hear shuffle shuffle shuffle mumble mumble holland america mumble shuffle shuffle shuffle . . . 'hlo? Beav then proceeds to tell poor Dave that the Oosterdam is in an oversold situation and since he was traveling alone they had paired him up with another gentleman that was traveling alone and just wanted to confirm his cabin number change . . . .I think it took a few minutes for this to actually sink in and then Dave said NO. At this point BEAV and I were snickering so much that Dave realized he had been punk'd. We all had a good laugh and Dave actually thanked us for waking him up so he would make it to "do" lunch in the Lido. DestCrz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAV Posted May 11, 2005 #187 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Yes, 100% accurate story (except for the BEAV only works 3 days part..). And yes, you won't see a response from DAM1050 before Noon. Guaranteed! But I'm hyperventilating to hear the REAL story of the DESTCRZ/Blazerboy connection on Harmony back in '92. Or is that story posted in the "Shipboard Love Stories" section of Cruise Critic ???? I'll tell this story cause I want to make sure it is told TRUTHFULLY AND CORRECTLY.

Blazerboy Posted May 11, 2005 #192 Share Posted May 11, 2005 O.K. you Chatty Cathies... There is NO connection/history/scandal on the high seas between DESTCRZ and BLAZERBOY! Not that it couldn't have happened, not that, given the proper circumstances and marital status, that I wouldn't have wanted it to happen, just that it DIDN'T happen. In addition to celebrating my 30th, I was, as Mike said, young and in love, and celebrating my fifth anniversary with my now ex (with whom I still speak on a regular basis- it's the lesbian in me). That's it... End of story... Nothing here to see... Move along folks. Now if you want dirt on me, ply me with cocktails, and I'll tell you about my single days....;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Mike you have rendered a very truthful story --- I am still laughing about it. I'm still miffed too though, as of course had I known you guys were going to punk me, I'd have spent much time in preparing some good responses for you which would have just "shocked the Royal sh*te" out of any clerk who might have been phoning .......LOL Ever since that episode I've been plotting how to exact my revenge upon y'all. Perhaps a gift to your upcoming Crystal Cabin ......... oh, I don't know ....visions of Baby Jane bringing a tray upstairs "Blanche, you know we got RATS in the cellar" ...............
