The Retirement Cruise

[Squeech]

1. When I grow up

that's what I want to do! See the world, breathe comparatively fresh sea air, and have an ever-changing bunch of neighbors.

I do wonder how good the health care really is on board, and whether any actual improvements have to do with being outside Frist's jurisdiction...

2. Interesting premise...

Anyone know if the prices are accurate?

[Mutley]

3. if they are

I'm all for it!

[amazona]

4. no they're not really accurate

Prices on cruises are based on two to a cabin, so unless you have another rich retiree to travel around with, then you are going to be paying single supplements.

They don't just dump you over the side when you die either, the cruise ship does have a morgue.

It's a joke, really, most cruises really are floating old people's homes, despite the cruise industry's efforts to claim otherwise.

On edit-- even if you could cruise at $200 a day, which you most of the time probably can't, yikes, ya'll do realize that's $6,000 a month? Who has that even when they're working?

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
