  1. Prince Charles was driving around his mother’s estate when he accidentally ran over her favourite dog, a Corgi, crushing it to a pulp.
    He got out of his Range Rover and sat down on the grass totally distraught.
    The whole world was against him and now his mother would go ballistic.
    Suddenly he noticed a lamp half-buried in the ground.
    He dug it up, polished it and immediately a Genie appeared.
    "You have freed me from thousands of years of imprisonment, " said the Genie"
    As a reward I shall grant you one wish."
    "Well, " said the Prince, "I have all the material things I need, but let me show you this dog."
    They walk over to the splattered remains of the dog.
    "Do you think you could bring this dog back to life for me..?" the Prince asked.
    The Genie carefully looked at the remains and shook his head.
    "This body is too far gone for even me to bring it back to life.
    Is there something else you would like..?"
    The Prince thought for a minute, reached into his pocket and pulled out two photos.
    "I was married to this beautiful woman called Diana, " said Prince Charles, showing the genie the first photo.
    "But now I love this woman called Camilla, " and he showed the genie the second photo.
    "You see Camilla isn’t beautiful at all, so do you think you can make Camilla as beautiful as Diana..?"
    The Genie studied the two photographs and after a few minutes said, "Let’s have another look at that dog" !!

  2. A lady is giving a party for her granddaughter, and has gone all out---caterer, band, and a hired clown.
    Just before the party starts, two guys show up looking for a handout.
    Feeling sorry for them, the woman tells them that they can get a meal if they will chop some firewood.
    Gratefully, they head to the rear of the house.
    Guests arrive, and all is going well with the children having a wonderful time.
    But the clown has not shown up, and finally, the clown calls to report that he is stuck in traffic, and will probably not make the party at all.
    The woman is very disappointed and unsuccessfully tries to entertain the children herself.
    She happens to look out the window and sees one of the guys doing cartwheels across the lawn.
    She watches in awe as he swings from tree branches, does midair flips, and leaps high in the air.
    She calls the other guy over and says, "What your friend is doing is absolutely marvelous. I have never seen such a thing. Do you think your friend would consider repeating this performance for the children at the party? I would pay him $50!"
    "Well...," he responds, "I dunno...let me ask him... HEY WILLIE...FOR $50 WOULD YOU CHOP OFF ANOTHER TOE?"

  3. I think, I'm going to lose my drivers license... and all just because of a police officer...
    The conversation went like this, when I got pulled over in my car:
    Officer: "License and registration, please, I think you are drunk!"
    Me: "I assure you, I did not drink anything."
    Officer: "Ok, let's do a little test! Imagine driving in the dark on a highway at night, when you see two lights in the distance. What is this?"
    Me: "A car."
    Officer:"Of course! But which one? A Mercedes, an Audi or a Ford?"
    Me:"I have no idea!"
    Officer:"So, you're drunk."
    Me:"But I didn't drink anything."
    Officer:"Okay, one more test -- Imagine, you drive in the dark on a highway at night, and there is one light coming at you.What is it?
    Me:"A motorcycle."
    Officer:"Of course! But which one? A Honda, a Kawasaki or a Harley?"
    Me:"I have no idea!"
    Officer:"As I suspected, you're drunk!"
    Then I started to get annoyed and asked a counter question.
    Me:"So..., counter question -- You're driving in the dark on a highway at night and see a woman on the roadside. She wears a mini skirt, fishnet stockings, high heeled shoes and only a bra as a top. What is this?"
    Officer:"A prostitute of course."
    Me:"Yes, but which one? Your daughter, your wife or your mother?"
    Things went downhill from there and now I have a court date to attend...

  4. If a certain threshold level of covid-19 is detected onboard the ship during your voyage, the voyage will end immediately, the ship will return to the port of embarkation.

     

    This is from Lisa Lutoff-Perlo
    President & CEO, Celebrity Cruises

    Don't you think it's up to the captain to turn the ship back to port for the safety of vaccinated cruisers on board? I feel very sorry for those who come from all over the world to deal with this issue. It's just a 30 min. drive south for us; and I'm certain that RCL will compensate; but the audacity of those unwilling to vaccinate.

    NO SHOT ----   NO SHIP !    🛳️   🌴

    Are you really saying getting COVID is no big deal or in any way similar to norovirus?  This is a perfect example of why I would prefer a 100% vaccinated cruise.    There is a question of trusting those around you if there are unvaccinated people onboard.  I wouldn't mind if I knew the unvaccinated people were based in reality and respected the rights of the people around them, but that is not going to happen.



    MrMarc,
     My husband read that Royal Caribbean (parent company of Celebrity) said that if anyone on board the ship is found to be Covid infected, that the ship will return to port of origin. He doesn't remember where he saw it; I'm trying to research that now and will post here.
    Now unvaccinated people -------- Is that fair to the 95% of cruisers who have been vaccinated? 
    NO SHOT -  NO SHIP !  🛳️

  7. Important Notifications×

    Sent Tue, Jun 8, 2021
    Has anyone else received this from your TA? 

    XXXXXXXXXXX has received a very important notification regarding your upcoming cruise.

    The notification is copied below:

    "Dear Guest,

    We look forward to welcoming you aboard Celebrity Equinox® for your 12-Night Ultimate Southern Caribbean cruise sailing from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Before we depart, we have some important information to share regarding your itinerary. Celebrity Cruises has been working closely with health and government authorities, in each country we sail from, to outline a clear path for cruising with new health and safety measures. As we thoughtfully plan our return to service, we are evaluating all current itineraries and the status of travel conditions around the world. This means some of our sailings will need to be modified. Specific to your future Celebrity Equinox sailing, our sail away from Fort Lauderdale has been adjusted to 6:00 PM.

    Celebrity Equinox will sail with a vaccinated crew. For details on our current health and safety protocols please visit  https://www.celebritycruises.com/healthy-at-sea. Face masks are not required on board and optional for guests who choose to wear them. However, face masks may be required while ashore based on local regulations. We’re sailing with fewer guests for more space – and more luxury with even more activities to avoid large gatherings in public spaces. Additional testing and protocols will be confirmed closer to your sailing departure date in line with the most up to date recommendations from local government and health officials as well as our Healthy Sail Panel. These measures, including vaccination and testing requirements, will evolve along with public health standards.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through these unique circumstances. We look forward to welcoming you aboard soon for an amazing Celebrity Cruises vacation.

    Sincerely,
    Celebrity Cruises"

    They will compare the Celebrity loyalty program to their competitors and adjust accordingly.  Are there benefits on other cruise lines that are better and should be added?  Does any other cruise line have a better loyalty program that Celebrity should copy?  If the answer to these questions is no, don’t expect any improvements.


    Absolutely, "X" cant compare, by a longshot to Oceania or Regent.
    I enjoy our $400 OBC plus paid gratuities, on every cruise + shareholder benefit.
    You're probably thinking they're out of your price range, but look at the value. Plus, they don't nickle/dime you to death. Such as no add'l charge for specialty restaurants. So, do the math.
    And, not to get off topic - YES, I did receive the survey. Oddly, my husband didn't.
    Happy Sails to all. Barbara 🙂
