    Yep, regardless of if you caught it you could find yourself quarantined for an extra 2 or 3 weeks.

    It's funny how only a few variables change and a cruise ship becomes a floating prison.

    My parents were supposed to leave this Sunday on a week cruise out of Miami. When I talked to them last Saturday they were still planning on going but by the end of the day they decided to postpone it. Luckily this cruise line is letting them get a credit that close to leaving.

    My wife owns a travel agency, she has done nothing but cancel trips.  Needless to say between me working for an oil field service company and her business lately, we aren't having the best of weeks.  Is it too early too drink yet?  Asking for a friend...

    Bloody Mary’s or mimosas are served at breakfast everywhere. Once you have that, it’s 100% beer thirty

    This is starting to get real.

    You couldn’t give me a cruise trip right now.
    4,000 people on a self contained Petri dish. I know that mainly infants and elderly are more likely to get it than the rest of us, but I just don’t think I’d put myself in that situation to find out 
    You couldn’t EVER get me on a cruise ship. I’ve been saying they are Petri dishes my entire life. This time is far more serious than the typical hundreds of passengers getting the squirts from a stomach virus. 
    Yepp, me too. No amount of free would ever gotten me on one of those before and certainly not now. I don't like people that much. Kinda like a vacation at the mall.

    Regarding cruise ships, I think they are a great way to see lots of places (granted not for long) so that then you can decide it you want to return for an extended vacation.  Only unpack once and enjoy the various port visits or open ocean cruising.  Just returned from a 14 day trip in late November of '19.  Next up is in early '21. 
    I have a good friend who has done two around the world cruises ( 175 days on one and 180 on the other) along with 7 others all told racking up 528 days in the past nine years.  Largest ship carried 1250 passengers and the smallest 680.  
    BTW-no sea water in the Ohio River so I have to get the salt water fix somehow.   B)
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Wondering if Frank walks around the ship (any ship) drinking his morning coffee out of one of these bad boys.

    Frank walks around the ship wondering why the sea is underneath and not on top.

    If you survived last spring your should be fine this spring. So far we haven’t sent you that much run off.

    @johnnyp - Believe it or not, I do not drink coffee or any hot liquids for that matter.  Never acquired the taste.  I don't have a coffee cup walk.  Heartbroken I'm sure!!  Parents both drank it but SWMBO does not indulge either.  Around 6 years ago, the now 32 year old son got into it but to date his 28 yo brother doesn't drink it (and he lives in Barcelona).  
    But yes, Rickover was quite the "Dad."  And I did survive my interview with him way back when.  More than you ever needed to know...

    Its not my preferred method of travel but I have in-laws who don't get around well. They choose to travel this way and I want my kids to spend as much time with them while the opportunity is there. I don't mind making concessions every now and again. If I survived all the places I've woken up in over the years then a cruise ship ain't sh*t.

    Rogan's latest podcast with Michael Osterholm.  Michael Osterholm is an internationally recognized expert in infectious disease epidemiology. He is Regents Professor, McKnight Presidential Endowed Chair in Public Health, the director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP), Distinguished Teaching Professor in the Division of Environmental Health Sciences, School of Public Health, a professor in the Technological Leadership Institute, College of Science and Engineering, and an adjunct professor in the Medical School, all at the University of Minnesota. 

    Worth a listen to get real information on COVID.  Very interesting and rather scary!

    We could just skip the recession if it drops enough. Correction over in just a couple weeks.
