HBE4 Posted May 14, 2022 #57551 Share Posted May 14, 2022 35 minutes ago, h20skibum said: @HBE4 congratulations for a well played Rangers game last night. I didn’t need a close game when trying to sleep before a cruise. Game 7 - go big or go home time. Thank you! If your anything like me, it's next to impossible to sleep before a cruise. Any vacation actually. lol Of course, had the Pens won, you could've enjoyed the sleepless night. I recorded last nights game & watched it when I got home from dinner. Finished around 2 am and was up until almost 4 am. Checked prices for Sundays game 7, cheapest ticket being resold was around $700. No thank you. Beer and food is cheaper at my house & I don't have to travel 90 minutes each way. Enjoy your cruise. Honestly, I have no idea what to expect Sunday. This series has been crazy and the momentum swings pretty wild. It's hard to imagine the Pens losing 3 straight games, then again, I didn't expect the 7-2 blowouts earlier either. 🤷♀️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant to say Lionesss/H20, but you’re absolutely right- Sue @Lionesssdeserves credit for getting that party started. I need to start paying more attention. I just realized @Lionesss & @h20skibum are on the same cruise & thread. lol. I thought I was reading 2 different "live" reviews (3 counting @Ozark_Kid but I know that is totally different ship & itinerary). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Momof3gurlz Posted May 14, 2022 #57554 Share Posted May 14, 2022 For the readers here, I just finished The Force by Don Winslow. It was very, very good. About an NYPD task force and it’s “dirty” members. Grittier than Michael Connelly’s Bosch series. If you watched The Wire or The Shield, similar to that. The author has quite a few books out with similar story lines and he wrote Power of the Dog, of recent movie fame. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to exercise and drink plenty of water. A few hours ago, I received a fraud Chase text informing me that someone used my credit card to charge $60 gas in Atlanta. I was instructed to click on a link which, of course I didn't click. The text did not come in from a toll free 800 or 888 number. I immediately called Chase and they verified that there were no charges in Atlanta for that amount, nor any that were questionable. I sent Chase Fraud an email with pictures of the text. So scary. Very hard to keep up in here. Hope all remain well. I hope you are feeling better today from the booster. Eric was going to go for this 2nd booster this week but didn't make it the pharmacy. Plans on going early this coming week when he has some prescription refills to pick up and do it all in one trip. Great job on catching that phishing text. Disgusting how many scammers there are nowadays. Even sadder how many end up a victim of these scams and how fast things can spiral out of control once the scammers have your info. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still do this too. Most times they tell me I don't need to notify them since cards have the chip and I always tell them I prefer to be safe and let you know especially if I am on a cruise or foreign soil and won't be able to get text alerts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I'm taking to long he gets right to it, at a pct in New Jersey, cops have his phone and wallet. Can I send money (cash?) to the DA. lol I told him on the second call: don''t you think you should stay in jail for a bit to learn a lesson. OH GRANDMA. LOL idiot. Then I reach out for a little sound machine my husband bought for scam calls and hit some of the laughter buttons. Guess my soaps weren't that interesting for me since I killed 10 minutes with this kid. Oh, and the funniest part was I could hear so many others in the background saying, hello grandma? They ort to be ashamed of themselves. Yup, my MIL had this same type of call although she said she didn't have any money and for the boy to call his parents. she then called my DH who said it is a scam and thank god she didn't give them any money. My BIL had his personal computer hacked and was told he had to pay $8000 ransom or they would compromise all his information. We told him just ignore them and go buy yourself a new laptop for a couple hundred and change all your passwords. But he insisted that wouldn't work so he paid them!!!! He's not the brightest bulb. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad I recorded the game as I had dinner plans with a friend I haven't seen in 5 years. At the restaurant , sat with with my back to the TV and avoided all text updates from my friends. Got home long after the game ended. Even fast forwarding thru the commercials and intermission, it was 2 am before I finished. Of course, the adrenaline kept me up for another hour or so. I assume you will be going to the game tomorrow night.It should be exciting.I live in Long Island mostly everyone I know who is into hockey are Islander fans.

Rare h20skibum Posted May 14, 2022 #57563 Share Posted May 14, 2022 This is my reading for the week while onboard Allure. It looks like it will be good. By the way, we were able to catch episodes 5 and 6 of the Bosch Legacy series, so we are up to date on it. Also started watching the new Netflix series “The Lincoln Lawyer”. It doesn’t appear too bad, once you get past the fact that Mathew M is not in it. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one of the trailer park cabins. A double wide. One of the CP balconies xxx29. A table, two chairs, and two loungers. Not a bad cabin if you don’t mind getting woken up at 4 am with the crew access next door. Always awake early, so it hasn’t been a problem for us. Had the same one when we were on Oasis for two weeks in January. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs. H. Posted May 14, 2022 #57573 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Well I booked a trip to Knoxville TN in October. I have a busy vacation schedule this year, that's for sure. May/July/Sept/Oct. Working on Christmas but California is looking to be a little too high in price. Forgot I used JetBlue points to go round trip there/back last Christmas. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She asked him what his sister's name was. Of course, the guy immediately hung up. I knew my arm would feel better and it does, but still a dull ache and I am soooo tired like I was after the 1st booster. In case you haven't noticed, I am a whiner for sure. Glad to read folks in here are cruising and feeling good. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
