I’m kicking the idea around, but as I am single and not in a relationship, it would be very expensive to book a cabin just for me.
So any of you straight single guys interested in a 4 day cruise next Spring? We could have a little doper get-together if more than one of you is interested.
I don’t mean to exclude the ladies, but damn, I’d never bet that lucky! 
Send me an e-mail if you think it might work for you.
Thanks

The Love Dope?
:eek:
Why just straight guys? 
Ya know, I opened this thinking it was about Tom Cruise.
" A short cruise? As opposed to the never-before-seen tall one?"
I’m sorry, I stand completely shamed and chastised! I only meant that I am straight and probably wouldn’t be the choice of a gay guy to share a room with. I didn’t mean to sound homophobic, because I’m not. Please excuse the faux pas and accept my invitation if you would like to go on a cruise. 
Incidentally, I have never been, but I checked out the prices and they seem pretty decent. Anyway, it was just an idea from a guy who needs to get out more and would like some company. Any company!
Q
Where’s the cruise to?
And from what port? What state?
I am intrested. I should have some vacation time earned by next year
Well, as y’all can tell, I live in Georgia, so getting down to Florida for a Cancun cruise is what I had in mind. Y’all still there?
I was thinking February or March?

Quasi, the idea needs some development - count me amongst the interested.
Ok, Ringo. I kinda thought we’d get a rough idea of how many wanted to participate, and then I’d start working on pricing and accomodations. As I said, I’ve never taken a cruise, but I’m willing to help organize one. If any of you have more experience, I’d gladly step aside, however.
Let’s kick it around a bit and see what develops.
Thanks
Q
I need more details before I can say. But the idea does sound apealing to me. Count me in as intrested too.
Okay, I just did some preliminary snooping around, and found for instance, a 3-night cruise leaving out of Port Canaveral on Feb 6th. The charge is 240.00 per person based on double occupancy. This is an inside cabin. Departure at 4:30 Thursday to Nassau to return Sunday @ 7 am. This is only a suggestion, okay? Just checking if the price sounds right to y’all.
Those of you who might be interested, e-mail me, and let’s work on it. BTW, it’s Carnival Cruise Lines on Fantasy.
Thanks
Q
You DO realize that this could be a perfect excuse to have a small (but lively) ‘going away/bon voyage/have a good time and bring me back a keychain’ mini-Dopefest?..
Hey, I’m up for it! :D:D:D:D
No kidding, y’all! My world needs a little spice in it, and this is something I have always wanted to do, but just don’t see me doing it alone. I go to Germany alone yes, but once I get there I have my friends and family to spend time with. So I thought to myself, "Why not do this with some doper friends, and have a great time, and make a positive change for a … er… change?
Besides, if y’all don’t like me, where ya gonna go to get away from me, huh?
Q
And, of course, a Doper would never toss another Doper over the side of a ship at sea… :eek:
Actually, this sounds like a lot of fun, but I wouldn’t want to go alone and with my sweetie living so far away, it’s not a practical option… I’ve never been on any kind of cruise ship, but I’ve wanted to for ages. Mebbe I should lure him down here on some pretense… hmmm…
I’ve never been one to beat my head against a dead horse, so I’m gonna bump this once, and if no one responds via e-mail, I’m willing to forget it as not such a good idea.
Thanks
Q
Once you’re on the high seas, does Doper Law prevail?
You guys are going to hijack the ship, declare it SDMB territory, and set up a new international headquarters. Much better than anything L. Ron ever did. I know what you’re playing at. And I LIKE it.
I might be intersted, and I’m sending you an e-mail right now, well after I finish this post. Let me know the dates you would like and I can look them up and find out if they are good for me or not. I don’t have a woman either so it might be kind of intersting. I really don’t care where we go, but you’ll have to see me in my Speedo’s
Ed and Others: My soccer.com e-mail is down. If you wrote me, I didn’t get it. Please re-direct to arthur.craig@wellstar.org for the time being. Sorry, but I didn’t want to miss your e-mails or have you think you are being ignored.
