Since my moonlighting job is one of the Chippendale dancers, let me
assure you that the Speedo-type outfits are quite cold and chaff. The
only reason I wear them is so that the dollar bills the ladies tuck
inside don't fall out as they did when I danced in my Oshkosh b'gosh
overalls. When cruising, the overalls are far more comfortable and I
reserve the black pair for formal night.

If you're shaking your booty and going through the choreographed moves,
how could you be cold?

At Mrs. Nonny's suggestion, the women drop in chilled Susan B. Anthny
dollars instead of the paper kind.

I would rather have dinner with casually-dressed person of substance
than a well-dressed asshole. A dressed-up asshole is still an asshole.

there seem to be quite of few of the dressed-up asshole kind of
people that inhabit this board. Not the least of whom is that Charles
character.

Hi Kurt,

Unfortunately some try to argue with an obvious troll, "Cathy", and
this is the outcome. :+(

NO more shallow than a demand for formal dress.

Call me politically incorrect. If he's built, has a nice face and a well
formed package, I say strut those speedos. If people mistake him for
Shamoo and try to roll him back into the sea -- there isn't enough volume
of cloth to cover him up.

LOL. Thanks. I still did not get it until you said mouth of a sailor.

No argument there.

Oh, lighten up! I assume Chrissy Cruiser has decided that I can't take
part in a discussion because I haven't taken a cruise *yet*. I'm going
on my first cruise next summer, and thought this newsgroup would be a
great source of information. Obviously, I don't have any pet peeves
when cruising because I've never done it. But I don't have to go on a
cruise to know how ridiculous men look in Speedos.

However, if you want to start a thread about pet peeves when reading
newsgroup posts, mine would be the use of LOL at the end of every
sentence, or even worse, a post that says nothing but LOL.

Although I haven't taken my first cruise yet, I'm fairly certain my
biggest pet peeve will have something to do with smokers in a
non-smoking area. It won't be men in Speedos or people dressed
casually at formal night.

In my relatively limited experience (three ships, two lines, in the
last year and a half), smoking in non-smoking areas is not a problem.

The problem is that most of the outdoor areas on ships are smoking
areas. On the Mercury, for example, one half of the pool deck was
non-smoking. Everything else - easily 8 times the area of that deck -
was for smoking.
