    VACruiser got a reaction from Lovetocruise2002 in Got Netflix?   
    I saw it last night...cute and very predictable. The only thing I laughed at was the cell phone stuff. Throw it in the water and magically it still works; I don't think so. I haven't seen Kelsey Grammer in a long time so nice to see he still gets work.
    I just don't understand the necessity for throwing in profanity when clearly it is not warranted or needed. Do people really talk like that all the time?

    Yes this site is bad for your wallet but good on smiles so there it goes round-and-round. Reminds me of the song by the Hair Band - RATT- Round and Round. Now I have that stuck in my head - ugh!

    After thinking back on the last cruise I do feel it was the patch that caused lots of problems. It caused a malaise like feeling in me and such a dry mouth that there was never enough fluids that could solve the dry throat. This time I vow  there will be a difference. So let it be written so let it be done!

    Matt, thank you so much for having a website that I personally have learned so much from. I owe the people of this site; they have saved me loads of money on the what to do, and more importantly, what not to do on cruises.

    I have one that is for September 2019 and it was way past the 60 days and MEI (Michelle) was able to do here vudoo magic and was able to take it over. As said above, it depends on who is asking I think. If I remember correctly, it was past 6 months since I booked and they were able to take it over.

    May I ask what were his symptoms that lead him to get treatment? The reason I ask is that type of blockage is normally fatal, as you indicated, and most of us may not even know it is an issue until its too late. I hope you don't mind the question but most of us are too stoic to get treatment if we feel the pains so having an understanding of what it is like can help others.

    For the past 2 weeks he had a few chest pains that only lasted about a minute or so.  Then Thursday morning at 2:30 am, he had chest pain that went thru to his back and wouldn't go away.  I gave him 4 baby aspirins (equals 1 whole one) and took him to the ER (I wanted to call 911 and he wouldn't let me).  ER got in straight back and did blood work checking for the "t" enzyme.  He did have the enzyme show up but only slight. 2nd blood draw in 3 hours was up a little more so they admitted him.  At 3 pm same day, he had very strong chest pains and the nurses gave my nitroglycerin and aspirin and called the doctor.  More blood work was done and enzyme was up a good bit.  Having him already in the hospital is was saved him because treatment was done immediately.  For what it's worth, every EKG the normal (even immediately after this bad attack), his blood pressure, pulse, and oxygen rates were all good.  So being already at the hospital with our early warning signs is all that saved him.  If he had been out working or even at home, we probably wouldn't be having this conversation.

    I got stuck going on a Carnival Cruise to attend my son's wedding as they got married in Grand Cayman last year (2017) and I didn't, at the time, have any interest on going on a cruise. My wife,on the hand, loved the thought of it and planned everything; as I didn't want to know a thing other than to show up. Well I loved it and I think I have an issue now - I think I have become a cruiser -
    I now have three cruises set-up for the next three years out to 2020, two of which will be on the Freedom of the Seas out of Puerto Rico. The other day I was contemplating my 2020 cruise when I looked at an ABC Island Cruise (March 08, 2020), with St. Thomas included on the way back, and saw a Hump Cabin - JR Suite 9338 was available...did some research, and deck reviewing, along with reading peoples opinions, and thought it looks cool so lets do it. I leaned over and asked my wife if she wanted this cruise and she said, I don't care, lets just go on a cruise . By the way, these Cruises on the FOTS are 5 months apart from each other. I should become familiar with the ship on these two events.
    So, do I have a problem now or what?
