Nrthwnd Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 ^ Happy Every Day National Vodka Day! Go make yourself a cocktail! Celebrating Vodka annually on October 4. National Vodka Day is a "one day" chance to "globally" toast the many flavors and recipes that makes Vodka the world's favorite Spirit. Fixed. Sort of.

viking86 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 After renting for a long time, I will for the first time in my life own an apartment after winning the bidding yesterday. So starting from November (takeover) I will be in about 240k USD in debt. Only 16 days remaining until I take over my new apartment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmay Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Not to get too sentimental but I'm happy for sweet roller coaster and theme park enthusiasts. I have never met an arrogant coaster nerd, in fact most of the ones I've met are awesome lovable gentle people and I'm happy that there are places like this where we can be nerds together.

Nrthwnd Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Wow. We just passed 33,000 AirMiles, which will allow us to take our two future trips, to Tokyo/Disney Japan, in late April, 2018. And then Amsterdam/Paris/Disney, in mid-Sept.2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 A cashier mix up, ended up giving us more than we planned for, at our local Safeway, today. On the first Tues. of each month, we get a choice of either 10% off the total food bill, or 20 x AirMiles calculated from the bill, which we usually go for. Well, the sweet cashier did what she thought was right... but we got the 10% knocked off! So one of the other employees we know, Vincent, took the tape and not only wrote up 240 AirMiles for us (it was a big shopping list) but let us still have that 10% off! AND we got nearly $30 deducted from our food bill, too! They know us well, in the day shift at Safeway. Some times it (accidently) pays off, lol. (An early Holiday Gift, from Them to Us.)

WayCool64 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I won a raffle by pure coincidental luck, and I don't even remember how I entered! Unless I was drunk and put my name in the Goblet of Fire or something. But anyway, I won a free commission by a really great artist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
