Sorry guys -- got buried in newsland (the unexpected discovery that Monarch of the Seas failed its November CDC inspection, followed by Disney's unexpected cancellation of more Mexico cruises.) Stay tuned...

For anyone who's interested, we're going to be posting a before & after slideshow later today or tomorrow. Stay tuned.

David Foster Wallace has an essay about cruising called "A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never do Again" (found in a book of the same title). I can't say that anyone on the Cruise Critic boards will share his sentiments, but it's an insightful read nonetheless.

If you're look for specific "cruise-related" reads, we've got a growing book review feature.
