I bet Oceania isn't happy that a pic of one of their ships is being
used with the article!

I noticed that too. Oh well. Just wish people would remember to wash
their hands and not touch the food on the buffet with their hands.
That's what the tongs are for.

In over 30 cruises, I've never had a bout with the Noro Virus. I don't
think any of my 'smart' cruise friends have either. Amateurs drive me
crazy. ;-)


I've only been hit by noro on shore. Last time was from a Luby's (I
don't get it at home, something about even washing my hands with
Chlorox). I don't see what my in-laws see in that place, and now I
don't see in that place at all.

The day care down the street was hit for the third time in six months.
The assisted living center that Ruby and I visit was hit, again, two
weeks ago. I don't know of more than six people who have been hit on
a cruise ship.

You know, I can't think of nothing finer than a fine
naked woman holding a gun. And you got all kinds of
fine going on.
