    From John Heald today:

    "Yesterday ( Sunday) I dared to take a day away from not answering questions and while I rested my weary mind and thighs someone posted a comment that is doing the rounds on one of the cruise Facebook pages and on Tit Tock.
     

    The basis of this post reads:
     
    “I have been on 30 cruises. I smoke on the balcony. I paid for the cruise. The steward always brings an ashtray with $50 tip.”
     
    And so let me cut to the chase before I carry on. This chap, along with the lady who was also on Tit Tock showing how to drink water from the bottles in the cabin without breaking the seal have both been banned from cruising with us ever again."

    Our Carnival Vista B2B - Havana Style - (with pics!) - 4/14/24

    in Carnival Cruise Lines

    Posted · Edited by Stallion

    If it was simply a matter of economics I wished they'd just keep the Vista Havana concept but open it up to maybe 50-75 more cabins-it still, would rarely be crowded but they could substantially increase revenue since they are getting a pretty high premium for those Havana cabins. The aren't getting the same premium on the new Havanas- at least when I have checked. I've got an aft-extended balcony on the Jubilee soon so I'll still get the pool view but wasn't going to pay premium for a shaded glorified jacuzi.

    In honor of those who courageously faced the perhaps the most daunting moment in the last Century prior to storming the Normandy beaches 80 years ago I'd like to share the comments of my father- a Lt. Commander in the Navy-who was in charge of a LST landing craft on the morning of June 6,1944. He wrote his feelings to his soon to be wife, my mother. He wrote in a letter we still have:

    "How did I so mismanage my life to put myself in the situation that I am in today"

    Love you Dad and I've been thinking about the courage of that generation in awe over the last few days

    With you on the feelings about news. I do watch our local 5 o’clock and the nightly news with Nora Jones. 
     

    When they have “panels” it seems like such a competition. Just report and don’t share your political opinions. 
     

    We don’t shout in this house and I don’t want to listen to it on tv. 

    Opinions from different perspectives are fine -one of the biggest problems with network news is the professional class of news personalities whose only apparent job is to appear on news shows to express their biased paid-for opinions. If these guys have another job its usually for political "think-tanks" or non-profit political entities with clear political agendas. This results in debates between analysts with well orchestrated  "talking points" rather than independent analysis of the news.  Its boring, re-gurgitated verbal diahrrea and the networks should be much more transparent with the conflicts of interest these personalities bring to the debate.

    Yeah I thought about accepting this girl's application but unfortunately she was disqualified because she was too young for a Passport and couldn't travel over-seas without her parents

    Just backwashed the pool- after completely opening up the filter bubble last week for a deep clean- and its pouring again. I think I need a french drain or something to keep the dirt/mud out of the pool. I may never get the pool clean

    I’m noticing an influx of balcony drinks with the influx of “world’s colliding”. I’m sure it’s strictly a coincidence, but who’s next? Your principal? A school board member? The state superintendent? 
    The madness has to stop. First 6th hour Andy rained on the 80’s parade. Now English Lisa blew up Festa Italiano. Shame. Shame.
