These are funny because we actually heard both of these on our last cruise...ARE YOU KIDDING ME...

[katyj]

a, It must be really bad on board as, when we stop near an island there are always tons of people flocking to the lifeboats in a hurry to get off.

b, There are always too many choices in the buffet/dining room.

c, Your spouse will surely get amorous, when on board:rolleyes:

They make you go to that dam muster drill.....wearing those dam lifejackets, musters my hair all up:)
