Cruise lines experiment with self playing pianos. "They don't eat, need a cabin or ask for time off," said a cruise line talent recruiter.

Will the new President address the clicking, banging, groaning creepy noises afflicting some of the cabins on the Beyond? Is the Beyond haunted or just poor shipbuilding. Several resources are available in Miami, including a wide selection of Santeria priests/priestess. Miami Catholic Archbishop Tom Wenski is been known to sling some Satan banishing Holy Water. Will the ever popular topic of lobsters be addressed? Will Goop be gone? Will Bingo be brought back? Will frozen butter in the Aqua class Blu restaurant ever thaw? Can we please keep the virtual lifeboat drills? Will the Celebrity IT department raid some hotel/airline software engineers and develop a stable and customer centric platform? Did I miss something? Please chime in. Hoping for the best. Here comes the nurse with evening meds.

I was accused of being under the Influence, but I moved to the Pool Bar. Fit right in.

I'm a little late to this topic but I'm happy to announce the coveted Lobster on a Stick trophy for the First mention of Lobsters in a post goes to.............. NutsAboutGolf, post #18. Well done Sir.

A full page of excellent comments, but not one word about lobsters!

The Atlantic Ocean, what could possibly go wrong?

I asked a woman to remove her towel if she wasn't using it and she slapped me. Guess she misunderstood?

This is unprofessional and wrong. It suggests that the manager is out of control and certainly out of line. Maybe he's been working his contract for too long and is getting toasty. If I were captain, he'd walk the plank. Customers are not paying Celebrity rates to be treated poorly by rude Maitre d's.

Took the train from Rome to Civitavecchia. Lovely journey. A regular shuttle bus from the train station ran down to the port and dropped us in front of the embarkation lobby.

What hotel do you like?

Hokey Pokey ...In a struggle to attach a weak left or right joke to this thread, I discover even more confusion. "The dance is referred to as the hokey-pokey in North America, Ireland and Australia, the hokey-cokey in the United Kingdom, and the hokey-tokey in New Zealand." The struggle is real.

Well dang, guess this is the end of free SVB calendars and ball point pens.

Banana Pizza

Celebrity IT Department, Celebrity Accounting Department ... your weekend chuckle.

I've crawled back to the cabin a few times, but that's stories for another post.

Bring your own, Lobster on a stick.

Hasn't this semi-annual "Sale," been going on since November?

In my youth, my wine list was dominated by interesting fruity blends of Boones Farm, MD 2020, Bali Hai. More adventurous in my retired life I'm committed to increasing my oenophile credentials. What is a fabulous wine pairing to celebrate the meatloafs flavors? Bon Appetite or as my wife says, "Don't let your meatloaf."

What supplement is good for wrinkles? Iron. I pointed out that my wife was pressing a no-wrinkle shirt, but she didn't appreciate the irony.

Acronym update. MC is short for hugely expensive Magic Carnival ride. Infrequently used but the shipyard design engineers loved it.

CFAR ...Ah the joy of using acronyms so the rest of us feel.... How about spelling out what your writing about so when you use an acronym we all benefit from the wisdom to be shared.

What's worse than lobster on your piano? Crabs on your organ.

Celebrity BYOB - Bring Your Own Beef.

The drama of bringing employees online because of the pandemic is over. Something is wrong if RCCL/Celebrity can't find help. If you can't service your customers, passengers will take their hard earned vacation dollars elsewhere.
