Also, I’m curious if anybody was at the other table in the kitchen. May, No skipping chapters. This is a mystery novel, told in food. Also, excellent point of curiosity, a consideration that has weighed upon me in my decision to book (and pay the surcharge) or not over the (literally) years. There is a clue in my one word description of the evening. Stay tuned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Keith1010 Posted November 13, 2021 #1833 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Did you all notice of late that we have all sorts of new posters on the board with funny member names as part of the name they are using (pig, horse, bird, gin.....etc.etc.) No a few years ago we got a stick on the board but it's been funny of late. Any idea why? I find it funny though because someone puts down a pig and all of a sudden a pig shows up from nowhere. Keith 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if he became a CC member to follow the Turner Classic movie cruise. It was cancelled in 2020 1nd 2021, but is back for 2022, and just looking at it now, it seems there is a "Pulp Fiction" theme to it, which would explain Arnold. Hello Arnold! I would love to get a like from you! Oh I was being funny but it was interesting. For example, someone would respond to a post and say something about a horse and all of a sudden someone who had never posted before on the Crystal Board who had horse in their name posted something to be funny like don't pick on horses and that was part of their name. Oh I didn't even think about your CC name being an animal. By the way I like most animals except those that scare me. LOL. Best, Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, it's verboten to post a direct link to the web site because it's a 3rd party site, meaning they are like travel agents. But there is a Roll Call for it on Cruise Critic There's no good information there, though. A member using the name Jules2517 has been posting about it here: He's not the thread starter. He just bumped an old TCM topic. He sometimes writes in character as Jules from Pulp Fiction, which is why I wrote that above - I was referencing his posts and not the cruise. As far as I know there is no theme for the 2022 cruise. There are no guests announced on the 3rd party web site yet. And as far as I know, that topic has not had any impromptu visits from farm animals. So, is that something that interests you, May B? Have you done a TCM cruise before? I have not done a TCM cruise and in fact, I rarely watch moves. Mr. B often goes through channels and there are several movies he always stops to watch, including Pulp Fiction. Another is An Officer and a Gentleman. Thanks for explaining your post to me! We have never done a Disney cruise but that one does actually sound intriguing.

BWIVince Posted November 16, 2021 #1841 Share Posted November 16, 2021 A weird trivia question came up in one of my dreams last night... (Yeah, that's a true sign of Crystal withdrawal.... 😢). I wonder how many people would get this immediately? Crystal Harmony was launched with four non-penthouse "staterooms" that featured bidets, Jacuzzi tubs and separate showers. Which staterooms were they? Vince 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince A case of you learn something new every day!! I didn't come to Crystal until after Harmony was gone, so I don't know much about her. Saw some photos after she left Crystal and could see places that looked like Symphony. Patty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted November 16, 2021 #1844 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Quick note. In the hospital for literally a “pain in the butt”. They found a puss abscess in the muscle that made standing so painful It actually caused me to fall. They’re drained it and put me on antibiotics. Not sure but I hope to go home tomorrow.

They had different category codes over the years, but I think you are right that they were “A’s” at one point. Originally they were B’s when Harmony was launched. They were originally fitted out to match the penthouses, and had that same “special” green or color-stained woodwork that some of Harmony’s penthouses had, along with pretty much the bath units of what today would be a PH (except on Harmony they had bidets). They also had the sitting area with 3rd berth like the penthouses. They were one of Harmony’s fun quirks. Remembering the green cabinetry gave me a shiver, though.
