Last Thursday, I turned 71. I have been to a lot of places and done a lot of things in those approximately 25,933 days, so it is pretty hard for me to get excited about anything at this point ……. but, I am very excited about what is going to happen over the next 10 days.

I am leaving for the airport to fly to Seattle in a few minutes, then its board the Ruby Princess, and then Anchor’s Away!

Stay tuned.

SAME DAY -ADDENDUM

You know why I know this is going to be a GREAT cruise?

Here is why:

Whenever you take a cruise, they always have a meeting right after you are at sea where they give you a briefing on what to do if there is an emergency. Everyone is assigned a “muster” location where you have to report for further instructions.

Guess what “muster” location I have been assigned?

THE CASINO!

That is so cool. I can shoot some craps as the ship sinks slowly into the Pacific Ocean. Talk about “Crapping Out”!

Eat your heart out Leonardo DiCaprio.
