    • So who's been on a cruise ship?

    Jump

  • I went on a caribbean cruise with my family when I was 12 in the 90s. I was old enough to appreciate and remember some things, but I imagine it's better as an adult. I wouldn't mind doing an Alaskan or European cruise.

    I just finished reading The Last One by Will Dean, the fictional story of a woman who wakes up on a cruise boat to find everyone has disappeared. I hated the ending, but if anyone is interested in luxury boat-realted horror, you might be into it.

    • Egg Rule

    Jump

  • you need eggs for dinner

    Do you, though? I've swapped which nights I'm making which dinners so I can pick up missing ingredients on a day I'm going out anyway.

    • What's that machine they use at the eye doctor to bend/refit your glasses?

    Jump

  • Bring them to where you get your eyes done. They'll probably be willing to adjust for you. Hell, I've gotten them adjusted at the Walmart opticians, and I've never paid for services there.

    • Who do you consider a Great Author of the last 50 years or so (first well-known work after 1970)? I'd like to get a feel for who's who in modern literature. Any language/culture. Fiction only.
