Spreading rumors!

[mbisson]

I was having dinner with the Captain and HD one the Jade and the hot dog threads were talked about!

 

That's too funny... I think Hound & Zone deserve to have dawgs delivered to their cabins some day ;)

I hear that the Epic will be doing trips to the moon for 2012.

 

and Frank Sinatra will be headlining...."Fly me to the Moon"

[suzyed]

and Frank Sinatra will be headlining...."Fly me to the Moon"

Now that, I DO believe!!;)

[mickeysgal]

Now I'm going to go look for the rumor.

[ohioNCLcruiser]

They should name a bar or club on the Epic "The Rumor"

[Urban trekker]

"Even the hot dog threads"

 

I wonder if they relish reading those threads while having some popcorn.

 

Cheers

If you're going to Athens, DEFINITELY DON'T believe the rumours from the taxi drivers that the trains are on strike.....jocap.

I have mixed feelings about giving some name of the person who gave you the rumor. If its small then no biggie (Jack from shore ex said the ship will be late arriving one morning etc) because who cares but if its something big then that person could get in trouble for you getting their trust then spilling the beans. I've seen it done here before. NCL Miami reads EVERYTHING. Saying something like "the HD of the Dawn told me they are shutting down the sky and are going to fire everyone" will land that person in trouble. Just like saying the Norwegian Epic was almost named the Norwegian Bliss ;-)...haha...

 

I hear what you are saying and it has some merit. However, in the example that you gave, if the HD of a ship actually made that kind of claim, perhaps he would deserve to land in trouble. :rolleyes: Perhaps a better example might support your position.:)

I'll be on the Dawn June 7th -- I like mine with relish!:D

 

Please ring the doorbell first!;)

Even the hot dog threads? ;)

 

LOL... I do wonder about the rumors that have been spreading about those hot dogs. Are any of those really true? :D

 

Did you see Laura's new post? :cool:

James I think NCL knows who I am. Do you think they'd have a hot dog waiting for me when I boarded in my stateroom? :cool: That's funny though (seriously) that the Captain would be discussing those postings. We do have to watch how much rumors we spread though about those hot dogs. We don't want this rumor mill getting turned into a hot dog fest. We could get lynched! :eek:

 

I heard a rumor that NCL ran out of hot dogs! My source... my dog. :D

So what are the Rumors.

 

If you are going to make a statement.....let us know what the problem is.

 

If it is kids running down the halls at all hours of the night - not a rumor!

 

If it kids getting into an elevator, pressing all of the buttons and then jumping off - not ad rumor!

 

If it is that people come out at 5:30 a.m. to reserve several deck chairs - not a rumor!

 

If it is someone that goes to a show and reserves seats for their party that shows up a half hour after the show starts - not a rumor!

 

If it is that children get in the hottubs when it is clearly marked that they can't - not a rumor!

 

If you see a mother get into the pool with her infant and it clearly states no infants in the pool - not a rumor!

 

So, what was your rumor!

I hear that the Epic will be doing trips to the moon for 2012.

 

IMO, that's where it belongs. :D It looks like Battlestar Galactica! lol

"Mechanically Separated Meat" is simply meat that is removed from the bone by a machine as opposed to being done by a human being. Nothing disgusting at all. And as for as what meats are used, it's meat - not eyeballs, hoofs, lips or the other end.

Ingredients

The basic ingredients in hot dogs are:

* Meat and fat

* Flavorings, such as salt, garlic, and paprika

* Preservatives (cure) - typically sodium erythorbate and sodium nitrite

In the US, if variety meats, cereal or soy fillers are used, the product name must be changed to "links" or the presence must be declared as a qualifier.

Pork and beef are the traditional meats which are still widely used. Less expensive hot dogs are primarily chicken or turkey, due to the low cost of mechanically separated poultry. Hot dogs have high sodium, fat and nitrite content, which have been linked to health problems in some consumers. In recent years, due to changing dietary preferences, manufacturers have turned to turkey, chicken, or vegetarian meat substitutes, and have begun lowering salt content.

In general, if a manufacturer produces two types of hot dog sausages, "wieners" tend to contain pork and are the blander of the two, while "franks" tend to be all beef and more-strongly seasoned.[citation needed]

HUGO would never do that!!! :D

YEAH RIGHT! re: the thread hijacking thread. i totally agree with laura. but i'm sure she knows that many of us regulars (though we have to define "regular"). we mean no malice. but ya gotta love how we all should be doing work...while laura and company actually are doing work.

Did you see Laura's new post? :cool:

 

Are you talking about the sticky dated April 2007? I just noticed it but thought I must just be unobservant because of the date. Or is there something else I should read? :confused:

The date is a bit off possibly but it was about thread hijacking. We do tend to pass the time sometimes by having fun on here - especially during lighter moments at work. I noticed the dining room thread was closed and I think that might have had something to do with it. Although this here is a RUMOR! :eek::p

 

We must enjoy the relish on our hot dogs in other places I guess. :rolleyes::eek::(

Did you see Laura's new post? :cool:

 

Yes, I saw it. Rumor is there's an antifun element creeping into the boards. ;)

But their board-their rules...I'll just buy some button down shirts

 

hey mods...i really do love you guys/gals. a round of hot dogs on me!

 

And I heard a rumon that I'll bring the soda/beer to wash them down.

 

Two rumors discussed in my one post ;)
