    Just discovered a quirky state rule, tell me about yours (region or country)

    There are a variety of old laws in Florida, many of which are not and perhaps were never enforced, that relate to circus animals. Ringling was the most famous circus to have their winter home in Florida, but they were not the only ones. One of the strangest laws was that if you tie your...

    Sept Cruising- Dream Bahamian?

    That is during hurricane season, which is June 1 - November 30. That being said, in most years hurricanes do not affect Disney cruises.

    Baltimore Key Bridge collapss

    That's what my BIL said. Literally, nothing except filling the basin with barriers would have prevented this. And, filling the basin with barriers defeats the purpose of the basin.

    Baltimore Key Bridge collapss

    The ship hit the support pillar and that’s what caused the massive collapse. The structure of the bridge has to be carefully balanced with the weight, distributed evenly. The loss of that support pillar meant that there was no way for the bridge to sustain itself. My BIL is a civil engineer...

    Kim Mulkey's Comments Post South Carolina/LSU Basketbrawl

    I would describe jawing as more like taunting players on the other team. You make a good tackle and you say some thing to the other guy as you get up. You shoot a three-point basket and you say something to the person who was guarding you. It doesn’t need to be arguing or even yelling, it might...

    NIL And The Portal-Has College Football Jumped The Shark?

    Student-athletes, like all students, could choose to have jobs. The NCAA just mandated that they be real jobs like any other students and not made-up "booster" jobs. Now, whether they had time for a job, especially during their season is debatable.

    Vero Beach in August-turtle tour available?

    What kind of tour are you looking for? Nesting tours take place at night and mid-August is after the typical nesting season for turtles in the Vero Beach area.

    Restaurant recs for Mother's Day

    We really enjoyed Las Brisas in Laguna Beach, not very fancy and excellent food and views.

    Just returned from the Regal Princess

    Loved the pool deck pizza. The other line that we think has excellent pool deck pizza is Holland America, although theirs is more of a thin crust style. But both of them, are far and away better than Disney.

    Just returned from the Regal Princess

    I did not try the chat function. One of the things I really liked was how it would give you directions from where you were to where you were trying to go. The cruise director was Micca and the ACD was Jed. I guess I just didn't care for their style. I did not find any of the cruise staff to...

    Galveston itineraries

    Did you sail on March 10? If so we were on the Regal Princess docked next to you in Galveston. I'll admit, it was a little hard to be on the Princess ship when I could see the Magic.

    Just returned from the Regal Princess

    They did have a little library that was quiet and there are a number of small lounge areas both indoors and outdoors. The atrium area is nice during the day, but too noisy at night.

    Just returned from the Regal Princess

    I think this would be fine, based on what I saw on the Regal.
