I still have not spent my stimilus check. It is in the bank.
about the same time we got our checks, I won two free fly anywhere in the US round trip airline tickets...
going to roll all of that together and book a cruise and we should only have to pay about 1000 bucks for the three of us to cruise in June 2009

Ya know, something doesn't sound right about this bitch. She claims to be a poor school teacher, but takes cruises like they're going out of style. I'm thinking she's married to money, but has to keep her "DU cred" by acting like she's barely making it. My wife and I went on a FREE 7-day cruise to Alaska a couple of months ago and it still wound up costing us about 1200 bucks. Excursions, diet cokes, and booze AREN'T free, only the food and things like juice, tea, and coffee, well, I mean, those are factored into the cost of the cruise. Neither is the Casino on board.

Yep, when I took a cruise we snuck our booze on board. Vodka and the free fruit punch drink they have is delicious. :)

That's why going to an all-inclusive resort is better than a cruise, IMHO.

It's not free period. Using your stimulas check for it make it a tax payer sponsored cruise.
On a up note, perhaps it's one of those famous "a three hour tour, a three hour tour."

Is the "pool boy of love" going to be on this cruise as well? :naughty:

How is she managing to post online when she is a teacher, and works an additional 30 hours a week at McDonalds?

If she is like another teacher I know she posts during class hours.

Captain, Fire Control--surface target Sierra-Four-Three now bearing one five four, drawing left, estimate range one-two-thousand.
Very well, Fire Control. Make tubes two and four read in all respects.
Aye Captain. Weapons in tubes two and four are warmed and ready in all aspects.
Very well, Fire Control. Flood and equalize torpedo tubes two and four, open torpedo tube outer and muzzle doors, and prepare to fire.
Aye Captain, tubes two and four are ready to fire, estimate time to target 9 minutes, 30 seconds.
Very well, Fire Control. Match generated bearings and shoot that worthless liberal ****ing retard to the moon.
Firing two! Firing four! Torpedoes running, wires intact. Good riddance to greenbriar, that idiot.

I noticed that she was taking the cruise before paying of the debt. Typical DUmmienomics.

Excellent movie, technically and historically a masterpiece, but also a great study of men worn down by the stress of war but carrying on in spite of it, and the leadership required for that. I have to say that some of the personality tensions are a bit clearer in the director's cut, a preliminary scene or two which weren't deemed necessary to the action for the theatric release add a bit there.

'The Hunt For Red October' was on AMC the other day.
I have never been able to sit through the entire movie. I still have no idea how it turns out.
