The old tax bill was mailed off to Uncle Sam on about 11:59pm on April 15th; therefore, no cruise for us. We had booked Caribbean Princess on 9/4/04. Maybe next year.

That's terrible....I feel your pain. This is the first year we actually had a refund in many years. Maybe you could sneak in a discounted short trip just to tide you over until next time??

Understand how you are feeling. Uncle Sam and Canadian Sam take all the fun out of life don't they? http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
I always book a cruise a year in advance save like mad thats what I do.Budget Uncle Sams amount each month and your cruise.When the year is up Sam has his share and you have your cruise.Thats my way of getting the cruise I wont.
Cheer up its suprising how the time flies quickly till your in the line up to get on board http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Thanks for caring. Actually we have kind of overdone cruising the past 4 years. We have taken 2 per year. Maybe it is time to do something else for a change and then we'll miss cruising even more for next year.

Well, I feel your pain but thanks to a large amount of house payment interest during the year I am getting enough back for a February cruise.
