Passover aboard ship?

I don't find "Yid" derrogatory at all! "Chosen on the ocean" is VERY good. I do like that one.:)

I think DH felt it was derrogatory if someone outside the tribe called us yids. If one of us says it, there's no problem. Does that make sense?

Ok, true! How about "J cruisers"? "Chosen of the Ocean" is still VERY good. DERF, do you like THAT one?

I do like "Chosen on the Ocean" -- here in northern Minnesota we call ourselves the "Frozen Chosen" (especially today, when it is SNOWING on the 2nd of May)!

So, Derf, maybe I'm a little dense here, but I can't tell from your posts. Do you like "Chosen on the Ocean" or not???

MGilly · May 2, 2005

Mazel tov, Sue! I wish your newest little one nothing but health and happiness! (And I wish for you dry diapers when you visit!)

I don't have an opinion I only do links.

MGilly · May 2, 2005

Well, then, how do the rest of you feel about it? Personally, I kinda like it! <grin>

Reference Frozen Chosen - that name was claimed by the US Marines, and supporting Army troops, after the miraculous retreat in the Korean War, which was dubbed by some as "Retreat Hell, we are just attacking in a different direction".

If memory serves correctly, the Chosen in Korea was actually Chosin.

Frozen Chozen in Minnesota...HAHAA! Funny.:) I have a great aunt who is from Minneapolis. Next week I am going to Minneapolis for a Hadassah Conference.

SueRedland:Bubba, Mazel tov on the birth of your new grand daughter, Ruby. Much health and happiness to her!

OK here goes

Sounds too much like "Motion of the Ocean" where one needs a bungee cord to keep the beds together so they won't seperate at the most inopertune moment But when the beds snap back together a body part might get stuck.

OK, Derf.....Let's hear your suggestion?:confused:

Here is how to find our people without being possibly offensive. Start a thread called "who goes to Shabbat services" or "who visits synagogues on excursions" or "recommended synagogues to visit". As the 2013 year old man said, "Be subtle, be oblique, be clever." The question is do you start it in Princess or in Cruise rituals or somewhere else people regularly look or do you start it on all of the majors and then point them to Cruise Rituals. Princess has no monopoly on our people cruising. Oy vay, Princess isn't so great but that is a whole other thread. Anyone want cake???
