  1. Ooh, you've hit a hot spot with me. If I decide to boycott a company and I don't notify that company why then IMO I've accomplished nothing. My few thousand dollars won't even be noticed. Let me give an example. I started boycotting Walmart more than a few years ago. It's because of how they treat their employees and suppliers (I worked for one of those suppliers long ago) I met with the manager of one of the the local stores and wrote probably the CEO (too many years and my aging makes me unsure about that). I don't know if I accomplished anything but I sure as heck wouldn't have if I just walked out the door. Plus I can tell other people and that may affect them.
  2. I don't know this for a fact but I believe I've read that Hurtigruten is getting most or all (?) of their ships ready to go anywhere.
  3. I'm astounded and speechless (something that I rarely am) by this post so simply won't reply. We're 180 degrees apart.
  4. Yeah, we've never bought CDs. Mortgage rates we do pay attention to.
  5. I'm sorry but Antarctica is a continent not a country that's part of South America.
  6. I think a lot of that is clothing but not sure about other things.
  7. I've never gained weight on a cruise because of all the healthy choices. And I'm not really a dessert fan. Except for creme brulee in Jacques 🙂

    No tomatoes???????????? Wow!
  9. No, I didn't know that. And if poster had simply added EST question wouldn't have been asked/ And, as I said, I hadn't posted here in years and paid no attention to the # of posts. If anything when I see large #s for other people, I internally whisper "get a life." So, clo, get a life.
  10. I have some of those. One is my favorite local weatherman 🙂

    Ingredients: Pizza Margherita is a typical Neapolitan pizza, made with tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, fresh basil, salt, and olive oil. Wikipedia And they better be top notch ingredients, every one of them.

    I think they meant Boors Head - not a cold cut meat that I particularly care for...but certainly not boorish 🙂

    No offense here whatsoever. But I'm betting folks who feel that way don't live on the West or East coast of the US (I don't know where else in the world to include). Oh, and a few cities in between. Pizza has become a very big deal with great toppings, crusts, you name it. Red and white sauce lightly applied. I make it about once a week for dinner and since it's just the two of us we have the leftover half for breakfast 🙂 And no offense.
  14. Right. And while I know that my teensy efforts contribute little to nothing...Oh wait, do I at least contribute to representing a good impression? I just read an article about Jane Goodall. She wants everyone to vote because that's the only way to make a true difference.

    Table for 2

    Okay. But that's not a huge problem, is it? We're generally down in "steerage" and don't need perfection. The food is just as a good 30 minutes later. At least IMneverHO 🙂
  16. This is not the subject matter - cruising - that will generally have a correct answer. Yeah, re dimensions of ships but what else?
  17. I haven't looked at it since it showed up a second day. And won't.
  18. In that case, I'd say "good riddance to bad rubbish."
  19. Amen. They need to remind themselves that they could be home cooking and doing chores.
  20. Well described. A dialogue. Occasionally there are 'wrong answers' but generally it's different experiences.
  21. I've seen other sites with this format and I avoid them like the plague.
