Why do you cruise?

To many "lefties"

There are certain subjects that should be avoided in shipboard chats, and
we receive pointers from the military. Traditionally, among U.S. Navy (and
Marine Corps) officers, three topics are taboo in the dining room:
religion, sex (in history, "ladies"), and POLITICS.

food - you'll never eat better than on a cruise - period!

You need to get out more.

I did not see the original post (from Ike), but let me reply via Lee
in NY.

On board food/meals/restaurants rank dead last on my list of reasons
for cruising. It's just not that important to me.

Hi, Ike.

I agree with you on the religion and politics taboos, but would
quibble on the topic of sex as not being appropriate. Personal
anecdotes, a definite no (!!!)... But sex in history? Well, I will
concede that you have to know your audience.

Hell, I love to talk about sex...at my age that's about all I can do(I'm a
senior)
