Chicken and waffle

 

 

 

I don’t think chicken is supposed to be red on the inside. This is why you always gotta order the second plate.

Maybe you ordered it medium rare?

Hey Greg is this a good time to sneak in a Saints question? I'm curious to hear how you feel about Derek Carr. I'm a huge fan of his and I think he will do really well in that offense, and also get to play with a decent defense for the first time in his career. 

I like him. I think he’s a top 12-15 QB in the NFL. Anywhere between 2-5 in the NFC. 
 

You’re right he’s had a top 20 defense like once in his career. That’s huge. I know we had a lot of 7-9 and 8-8 seasons with Drew Brees when we had bad defenses. It’s really though when you have to carry a team every week.

 

Carr should have a top 5-10 defense here. He seems happy and motivated. He’s been putting on a gun show at OTAs.

Milk can get frothy if shaken.  I didn't think this was abnormal.

That's what I was thinking.  A white russian should be stirred, not shaken. Looks like they shook the hell out of it!

Javablue has been the same. I don’t ever have the buffet coffee except maybe on debarkation day.

Yes. I swear the people around here. I took about 20 steps away from my table. I was gone less than 30 seconds just to take this picture for you and a lady was moving my drink to another table so she could take my spot.

Wow

[Saint Greg]

Fishing competition on lido. I kind of thought they’d be catching electronic fish out of the pool or magnetic fish out of a bucket. But they’re tossing and catching them in a bucket and stacking them on their heads. There are more kids than I thought there would be on this ship and the activities are very family friendly. Other than the quest and the one adult comedy show (most days).

I had to go to the bar for a drink. There aren’t any servers…I don’t think there are any lido servers on this cruise.

 

 

I just pulled everything out of my pockets and left it on the table. I think my phone was the clincher. I left my phone otherwise I would’ve lost my table in 30 seconds.

I wonder if the demographics of a TA changes the way they work…interesting

Did you tell her to stop touching your stuff and get lost?

I told her I was sitting there. Then I said something not so under my breath like “I swear the people on this ship. I can’t step away for 5 seconds.”

 

I need to carry a towel or something. Somehow people reserved seats all day but I can’t step away to take a picture or get a drink or use the bathroom.

Has the captain reduced speed in the fog?
