  1. Booze is basically slang for hard liquor. Kind of like "suds" for beer.
  2. Indeed. That's what they like to call it and got permission to do so. It does, however, meet the requirements to be called bourbon. Simple fact.
  3. 1L and tiny probably two different things as far as availability. Then there is always the "Is JD bourbon" argument 😀.
  4. I'm normally a "don't look back" type as well but got curuios. Found $5600 total difference between what we paid and what we would pay today on our next cruise.
  5. It would be nice to know what is available for stocking. When I asked about bourbon all I got was a blank stare.
  6. Actually only one person mentioned onion rings but try them anyway. And I highly recommend that you at least pass by the salad table a few times and check it out - there's always something well worth your while there.
  7. The point is that you (or anyone) can upgrade with or without the package. Not difficult to grasp regardless of suitable reasoning.
  8. Too bad about Pool Bar menu. The food there is always quite good. Check out the salad table some time just for grins.
  9. Indeed. The point being that there are still folks who think the SSP adds an additional level of choices ("The reason we purchase SSP is because we like to have a choice of wines.") despite the facts. Puzzling.
  10. "The reason we purchase SSP is because we like to have a choice of wines." It is absolutely astonishing that some still think SSP increases choices in the face of so much information to the contrary.
  11. "bottles of beer"? Never seen bottles - only cans.
  12. Now you're going to catch it for writing "y'all."
  13. Cheddar cheeses on display at the Mid Somerset Show. Creamy yellow?
  14. No cheese needs to be dyed. It's an aesthetics and consistency thing. Whether or not it makes any sense a great many people simply think it looks better. Good quality cheese can be dyed and often is. Visit Wisconsin - see for yourself.
  15. Dyed cheddar is very common, maybe even the norm, and certainly not necessarily an indication of poor quality. A great many people think cheese should be that color and the manufacturers accommodate that view. The list of excellent Wisconsin cheddars that are colored is quite long.
  16. Colloquialisms and slang are part of any language. Always have been - always will be. And --- if you look closely you will discover that it was someone else who wrote "Duh."
  17. Google is, or can be, your friend: variant spelling of no (exclamation), representing a dialect or nonstandard pronunciation. "“Want some toast?” “Naw.”"
  18. Naw ----- just know how to use the language correctly. A dying art.
  19. If it is true that there are drinks you will have to pay for (above a given threshold in price) then it is not true that "you do not pay for any drinks, anytime on the ship" - as I said. I think think correct information is preferable to the other kind.
