  1. I do not believe that I know anyone personally who lives in RI and posts on CC.I have met people on cruises who live in RI who could post on CC but no one specifically. Renee ,I think believed that my post was referring to our resident physician but I have never met him .
  2. We downsized in 2003 to our Condo .We could have bought a house in the complex facing a lake but we opted to buy a unit at the extreme end far away from the lake ,pools,health club and club houses.It is so quiet here that you can literally hear a pin drop.We have wonderful neighbors ,many of them are avid cruisers and at least two post on CC boards.
  3. We do not disagree.I have a cousin who worked for the NYPD .After he retired at a rather young age he worked for a LI Volunteer Fire Dept for 20 plus years.The Firefighters who work in Volunteer Fire Departments choose to do so .Not everyone who takes a job looks at salary first.However,pro athletes do.
  4. Not necessarily.Teachers working in Private or Parocchial schools and Nurses in private hospitals are not paid by the public.
  5. Correct ,however,the athlete does not have to go along with the Manager. It is comparable to entertainers.Springsteen wears jeans and and to see him in concert you have to pay as high as $572 in some venues. Graham Nash appears in concerts at venues where the highest admission price is $35.00.
  6. I am currently watching Obliterated on Netflix .One season ,8 episodes.It is a raunchy comedy /action movie that should be rated somewhere between R and X.
  7. Not everyone is interested in making the most money possible.Retired baseball player Turk Wendell said in a recent interview that he cannot fathom athletes making the salaries that they are paid.In my opinion the highest salaries should be paid to Police Officers,Firefighters,Nurses and School Teachers.
  8. That is good,re Charlie. We should not have booked the Dec.cruise.I could barely function and spent most of the time in the cabin.
  9. I am sure that he could have a nice rest of his life on one million a year .However,athletes get so greedy and team owners pay ridiculous sums to them.The world has gone to ….
  10. We were on two or three cruises with them and multiple cruises with others who post on CC.Unfortunately we never met you and Charlie on the Dec.2019 cruise.
