Gidget | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 09:15 pm     I can get from Philly to NY in under 2 hours and I drive like a grandma. |
Caycaye | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 09:36 pm     Yes...a holiday romance...so awesome....there IS a slight chance they may have met their "soul mate" and stay together forever...but I really doubt it. If you heard Justin talk in private to the "team"...he doesn't believe in being married or faithful...Atleast not at this time in his life. He is pretty honest, so I think he meant it when he said it. |
Wendo | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 09:52 pm     Gidget, I think Angelsluv was pointing out that Justin is in Pittsburgh, not Philly. |
Gidget | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 10:04 pm     I believe she was trying to say you have to drive from to Ny to Philly then across to Pittsburgh, but I could be mistaken. |
Scbookworm | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 10:36 pm     Justin and Dana? A temporary thing. |
Carrie92 | Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 10:51 pm     I don't know, but it's sure going to get Ali's goat that they are still "together". I'm surprised some of you techies out there haven't created some Dana/Justin wedding photos, or what their babies might look like, lol. Get crackin'! We need some laughter around here! |
Wendo | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 12:41 am     Ick Carrie92. Pass. Someone else can do it. Not on my computer and not in my Photoshop. LOL! |
Bluie | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 04:06 am     Dana and Justin's relationship will last. Those 2 were made for each other. Sometimes getting back to reality gives you a happy ending. |
Angelsluv | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 06:49 am     Giget, Yeah Philia to NY, but to cross PA. it is 5 and 1/2 hours without stopping. Weekends from NY to Philia is loaded with traffic, you'd need to go damn early. You also have to go onto rte. 80 to get to Pittsburgh and drive through the Poconos. We're still talking 8+ hours. |
Costacat | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 09:06 am     I think Dana and Justin's "relationship" is entirely based on a "shipboard romance." Once the boat docks again, their real lives will interfere, and soon they will have only fond memories of their time together. With regards to Dana letting it go about Nathan using the POV, I don't think it's ever gonna happen. Dana is like a dog with bone, just never stops with it (and growls if YOU try to take it away). Not a pretty picture. Which is also why I never thought Dana was attractive. Even before I found out how unattractive her personality is. I think Dana is a pretty negative person, and that comes across in her attitude. I mean, whether or not it really happens, how on earth can one person be so pissed off all the time? (If she's not always so mad, why does she always have to say it.) I also don't really think Justin and Robert will continue to be best buds outside of the house. Unless Justin suddenly has stars in his eyes and thinks he can parlay that 15 minutes of fame into a lifetime career in Hollywood, I think Justin will return to college and life more or less as he knew it before. If he chooses to stay with Robert a while in LA, he may also realize that Robert is full of hot air and doesn't really "know" the people he claims to. (Saying "welcome to blablahblah, here's your table" doesn't qualify as knowing anyone!) |
Mlt | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 09:16 am     I think they will have a good time for as long as it lasts. But I don't think it's permanent. (Although it would be fun to see the look on Ali's face if she were to find out that they were getting married.) |
Bohawkins | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 09:47 am     One summer I was rewarded by my parents with a visit to an encampment at a very wonderful place called Delphi (thirty minutes away from South-West Mayo Co. Galway), halfway between Louisburgh and Leenane. This is amazingly remote undiscovered country (where years later some scenes from the movie The Field were filmed). I was there all summer, almost three months. The area is like a unspoiled paradise, the land that time forgot. I was only 18 at the time and I met a local girl with an exquisitely rare beauty, unlike any I have ever seen since. She was like a story book maiden of the woods in every way. It was the most amazing romance I have ever experienced, a fairytale union, which was more intense, and more frequently intimate, than one might think was even physically possible. At the end of the summer after a tearful goodbye, I went back to University, and while I meant to see her again, upon rediscovering my scholastic environment I knew that such an idyllic bonding was never meant to be. I wrote her a few times, but it was truly over. As the poet Whittier wrote, "Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been.' " |
Gidget | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 09:51 am     Ahh Bo, what a sweet memory. That's what summer break is for. Idyllic love affairs. I think many of us have had them. Have you ever thought of looking her up or do you just cherish the memory? |
Bohawkins | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 10:04 am     Yes, Gidget, I have looked back fondly and not without regret. However, when I think now of perhaps looking her up, I am sure it is as the poet wrote, She wedded a man unlearned and poor, And many children played round her door. But care and sorrow, and childbirth pain, Left their traces on heart and brain. Incidently, I failed to mention that all that took place in Ireland, which many might not realize from the names of the locations. I would love to go back to spend some time in Delphi. Maybe, if I did go there, I might just check to see what that gal is doing now, from a distance, of course. |
Sunshyne4u | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 11:55 am     You know, I think you can access the phone book from online. Were there brothers and sisters? If you have the last name you could make a curiousity call stating you were there years ago visiting had a great time and were just wondering "what ever happened to......." (name a few people first before her so It looks more nonstalker-like) I hate to be too curious but if you were 18 then, are you Much older now?? |
Ezgoing | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 02:08 pm     Sunshyne, check out Bo's profile (well worth the click!) which includes his age, at least at the time he offered it. BTW Bo, LOVE your picture!! Great story, too....ahhhh! Young love . |
Bonzacat | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 02:19 pm     Ditto, Wendo!!!!! Wendo (THIS THREAD), Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 01:03 am, Ick Carrie92. Pass. Someone else can do it. Not on my computer and not in my Photoshop. Just can't do it, just can't make their wedding photo....  |
Bondmaiden | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 02:22 pm     Loved your story and your picture Bo. The whole thing reminds me of Brigadoon, except it's an Irish story. Very romantic. |
Sunshyne4u | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 02:34 pm     well Bo, its never too late. A friend of the family touched base with her old boyfriend she dated before she got married. She is planning a trip to go see him in Pennsylvannia when he lives now. They met in England during the WAR. She is 77 yrs old now. For all these years she has always wondered what happened to her first love, then along came a friend who knew how to "surf the net"!! ;-)) By the way, I enjoyed reading the Profile. I should do that more often around here LOL. |
Bastable | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 02:52 pm     Whaddaya mean, "will they make it?" It sounds like they're making it every 20 minutes. |
Sia | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 03:55 pm     Do I think Justin and Dana will make it long-term as a couple? NO! |
Puzzled | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 05:41 pm     Dana & Justin on The Love Boat This picture was taken the day before they got married:
Here's a picture of their children, Dantin and Justana:

Chippy | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 06:31 pm     Well, their son has her mouth and the daughter has her eyes. LITERALLY. Funny. Place we went in Colorado called "Double Daves" has this booth where a couple gets in and the thing photographs them and then posts what their kids will look like on a huge screen for all to see. It's hysterical. Good job, Puzzled. |
Bonzacat | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 06:34 pm     Morph-O-Rama!!!!! Way to go, Puzzled!  |
Puzzled | Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 07:52 pm     Thank you, Chippy and Bonza--I love to laugh. |
