Why do I have this image of $200 Italian Sandles

Strela Reality Break: 10 year-old Topsiders and/or sandals I've had forever

Tommy Bahama trunks

Strela Reality Break: No-name blue jams I wear around the house (lots of pockets, smear of red silicone sealer on the front where I wiped my hands on it while installing a 10-meter antenna)

pricey silk island pattern shirt

Strela Reality Break: Red and black rayon Hawaiian pattern from Walmart, looks like an epileptic cat having a fit in a platter of tomatoes

copy of Investor Business Daily

Strela Reality Break: Fodor's Guidebook, English/Spanish translator on PDA, maybe a good Diane Carey Star Trek novel if there's a new one out around that time, whatever paperback catches my eye at Barnes and Noble

trailed by Heidi Klum and other former SI swimsuit models

Strela Reality Break: Pushes the bimbettes out of the way while on quest for cheap Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee and a decent djembe drum for Amtgard events (not that import crap either - will commission a real West African craftsman to build one if necessary)

while I hear you lecturing these lass's on the beauty of 'older' women?

Strela Reality Break: Private lecture series to be offered, held at sufficiently cheesy accommodations onshore, intense one-on-one instruction guaranteed.

Oh groan DO. I wanna go so bad, I can almost feel the sunshine - only problem is - it's liquid here today, sighhhhh - my one day at home and it rains.

[dixie sass]

Luis, I luv ya, I really do, but... first you were gonna look like a strawberry and now it's a bananna - sighhh.

[dixie sass]

Chocolate? You said Chocolate?

Hi, My name is Dixie. I'm a chocoholic...

[dixie sass]

She said Chocolate!!!!!

[dixie sass]

sighhhhhhhhhhhhh, chocolate, ummmmmmmmmmmmm, ohhhhh Shrew...

[abner]

Ok, I'll bite. Are you implying something about my chocoholic status? You can't have your addiction by yourself? You think of me in the same thought?

Hmmmph. I'm going to go have some bunny ears. Fanny Farmer.

[dixie sass]

Giggle. Have already broken into stash here - Hot chocolate, hershey bars, etc. (Note to self: Will have to make trip to store in pouring rain to refresh stash!)

[dixie sass]

How about a giant chocolate bar balloon?

[MinuteGal]

Every night before we retire, there'll be luscious chocolates on our pillows for sweeter dreams!

Better still, we don't have to make the bed the next morning. Just sit and watch the TV news with a steaming hot pot of delicious coffee brought by the cabin steward and contemplate what new fun happenings will take place that day and evening in the islands.

[abner]

I can quit anytime I want.

[dixie sass]

Oh yeah? Well, so can I!








sighhhhhhhhhh

[dixie sass]

Sighhhh, Leni, I can just invision myself sitting there...

[abner]

You started this. If it doesn't stop, the bunny loses his head!

Then he goes from a 15 oz to 12... >insert ominous music here<

[dixie sass]

"BRB - OUT TO CVS FOR CHOCOLATE BUNNIES"

[abner]

You go girl! I'm no longer alone in my madness!!! LOL!

[MinuteGal]

Many folks who have not taken a cruise before don't know what they're missing.

Our new deeply-discounted cabin fares are freepin' unbelievable!

One thing that is just great about a cruise is being able to indulge in unorganized time for a change. Good for the nervous system. You can be alone, reading a book in some quiet corner of the deck, or join with other freepers for chats and spinning political tales over a Bloody Mary in a private corner of a quiet salon.

On the Triumph, there are various restaurants, shops, cafes, bars and lounges, sunning decks, pools, game and computer rooms and a theater showing current films.

For more action, there are Broadway-type shows, dancing, discos, kareoke, and the casino. There's usually a night deck party sponsored by the ship with barbequed food and rockin' band music till the wee hours.

There are workout gyms, massage salons and beauty/barber shops.

Dress is tres casual. Food is yummy and profuse.

Your needs and whims are catered to like you are royalty. You don't have to drive anywhere, pack and unpack every day, or be on a constant road search for restaurants that may disappoint you.

You can take reasonably-priced, interesting shore excursions to sight-see and photograph an exotic island with breathtaking vistas. Or you can head for the beaches.......or shop for native crafts and unusual items, gifts, foods and clothes in an island port town.

You get more bang for your buck on a cruise than at any vacation hotel or resort. Even more fun than vacationing at your mother-in-law's house in Florida!

[dixie sass]

Long walk to CVS then an even longer time to choose and nibble and sighhhhhhh - all gone - need to go back and get more...

[abner]

The bunny got it too.

I'm off to cut him into little pieces now...

[Luis Gonzalez]

Dixie, are you implying that I am a little fruity?
