A few weeks ago on a particularly drunken Zoom, we got to talking about group cruises. Our friend Shpip has some experience in this area, and we have been working behind the scenes to come up with a modest proposal: a Glibcruise Glibcation.
Shpip has been doing a ton of legwork on this project and has come up with something that is hopefully appealing to a bunch of us. More from him on that in a bit.
I’m here to tell you why you should join in.
As you know, I went on my first cruise last year. I want to iterate how skeptical I was of my ability to enjoy such a vacation. I hate people, I hate humidity, I hate heat, and I hate the ocean. WTF. I had no business going on a cruise – to the Caribbean!
At any rate, I had the most wonderful time. I woke up every day without a care or worry. I ate whatever and whenever I wanted. I pickled myself with alcohol (as one does when one buys a drink package). I met some very cool folks (for example, a Brit AvGeek who was on the deck taking pics of planes landing at St Kitts, just as I was). I didn’t even mind being on the ocean, as I was gently rocked to sleep every night like a baby. It was the most worry-free I’ve been in years.
If you’re the type of person who can lounge all day, doing nothing, a cruise may be just what the doctor ordered. If you like getting out-and-about and seeing and doing things, a cruise is great for that, too.
Hate people? Cruise ships generally have a selection of quiet corners to get away. Love people? Well, obviously you’re on a ship with 2000+ other folks.
For this venture, we need to reach a critical mass of people to get our group discount, so please consider vacationing with us.
Bitchy Karen Note: if you don’t want to go on a cruise, it’s not mandatory. If you would rather do something else, go forth and organize it yourself. We (mostly Shpip) have put quite a bit of time in researching and choosing a cruise that hopefully has mass Glib-Appeal. We took into consideration the departure port, the ports of call, the length of the trip, and the cruise line. Other ideas are welcome, but you’ll be the one on the hook for all the logistics and cat-wrangling, and Shpip and I will bow out gracefully.
That being said, let’s see the details of the cruise Shpip has come up with…
After a bit of research and discussion, we’re offering our inaugural GlibsCruise on Celebrity Cruise Lines, round trip from Fort Lauderdale, departing on October 21, 2024.
We chose Celebrity because it’s a fairly upscale cruise line – there are a few luxury lines out there, but they have a price to match, and we’re trying to keep this affordable for the Glib demographic. On the other hand, it’s not one of those bargain-basement lines where you’re likely to be annoyed by college kids getting loud on four Michelob Ultras.
We chose this particular itinerary because:
- It’s a seven-day cruise, typical for the industry and not too expensive,
- The Fort Lauderdale cruise port is very near the airport, making connections a cinch for those who would be flying in, and
- The cruise touches at St. Maarten, which was KK’s only request, and home to one of the
more bonkers* things you can do on a Caribbean vacation.
We also chose October because it’s after hurricane season (for the most part), and school-age children will, for the most part, be in school and not running around a cruise ship. This part of the year is also “shoulder season” for cruising the Caribbean, which is keeping the costs down (the same cruise in January would run you at least $600 more).
While I’m a veteran of several cruises, I’m not a travel industry pro. Fortunately for us, the cheerleader who was nice to me in high school Latin class is, and I’ve handed the nuts-and-bolts of the trip to her.
Her name is Suzanne Klasen, and she’s the consummate professional in her field, not some housewife who acts as a travel agent part time for pin money. She’s reserved a block of cabins that’s far larger than I expect we’ll need, in order to offer an array of choices to you.
Standard-issue would be a balcony cabin, which fits two. We’re hoping that at least some of you malcontents will drag your spouses along for some fun in the sun. Others who will travel solo can be matched with fellow Glibs to keep costs down, and those curmudgeons who want a cabin to themselves can cut costs by selecting an interior.
Suzanne’s dedicated GlibsCruise website is here.
A couple of anticipated questions:
Do we have to do everything as a group?
Hell, no. It’s a big ship, you can spend time doing whatever you like on board. We might have a few Glib-centric activities onboard, like a wine tasting. Every passenger is allowed to bring two bottles of wine onboard for personal consumption, and if the group is large enough, Celebrity will be happy to provide one of their restaurants during off hours to host a get-together. A group excursion (say, a walking tour of Old San Juan) might be on offer, too.
Is the cruise all-inclusive?
Suzanne has put together a bundled “perks package” that includes the premium drinks deal, enhanced internet, and pre-paid gratuities. You’ll also get an onboard credit to spend as you like – spa treatment, specialty restaurant, shopping in the boutiques, whatever.
What if I don’t drink?
Yes, we know there are a few of you out there. Suzanne will drop the drinks package and let you do a la carte (didn’t I tell you she was a pro?). Of course, if you like specialty coffees, bottled waters, mocktails, or the like, you may want to leave the drinks package in place, since it covers all of those, not just beer, wine, and highballs.
How about travel to the port and back?
Fort Lauderdale is an easy airport to get to if you’re coming from a distance where driving is impractical. The airport is very close to the cruise port, maybe a $10-15 Uber or taxi ride. I would strongly suggest, though, that you arrive the day before. Once I have firmer numbers of how many are participating, I’ll set up a block of rooms at a nearby hotel that has weeklong parking for those who are driving to Ft. Liquordale, and also has a shuttle for embarking passengers. Don’t let a delayed flight or a mechanical issue with your car cause you to miss the
boat.
Put your orphans on double shifts and start saving your pennies, Glibs. This is going to be a great time!
*747 no longer in service to St Maarten. Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.
I have (perhaps against my better judgement) forwarded this over to the girlfriend so she is aware. We were contemplating doing the Flogging Molly cruise next year, so I’m not entirely opposed, and we’ve got a trip budgeted…
This sounds super cool. Also, the plane spotting in St. Martin looks f’ing sweet!
KK can tell you all about that!
The closest I’ve plane spotted was the In-n-Out by LAX. Which is pretty darn close.
Immediately sent link to Dude. We shall see, but I will be leaning HARD on him. Also depends on if XY has been able to move out or not.
I hate people, I hate humidity, I hate heat
Word.
But I love gatherings. Ironic, isn’t it?
I’ve been on that beach in St. Maarten.
Based on what I’ve gleaned about KK on this site, she’ll be squeeing her brains out.
As an aside, I’ve been on Celebrity cruises twice now, and think they’re great; more geared towards adults than kids, and I really enjoyed the evening semi-formal dining — not a bad meal in the lot, even though there were several dishes I’d never normally choose to eat. And of course, you can always go to “the trough” (buffet on Lido[?] deck) at almost any time of day or night to get food. My niece went *nuts* at the all-you-can-eat sushi station.
(By “nuts” I’m talking semi-permanent “food baby.”)
If you’re the type of person who can lounge all day, doing nothing, a cruise may be just what the doctor ordered.
I can do that without leaving the house. I hope you guys have a wonderful time.
Didn’t That Other Place do a cruise or two? Did anybody go?
The original Steve Smith (a friend of Matt Welch, I think) supposedly went on one of those cruises.
AND BY “WENT ON”, MEAN . . . .
NEED INVITE SEA SMITH TOO!
Do we have to do everything as a group?
Hahahahahhahahhaa! We are Glibs, after all.
I am going to talk to the wife. This could be a fine thing. And she loves cruises.
Would participation require renewing my passport?
When you renew your passport, be sure to get the card too. It’s very convenient for spontaneous jaunts to
the duty free storeMontreal.I never used the card in the ten years it was valid. I always brought the booklet.
I keep the card in my wallet in case I get hungry for poutine. I keep the booklet at home.
Yeah, but you should do that anyway. Never know when hustling across a border will be necessary (or just fun).
What a great idea!
I’ve done one cruise and St. Maarten was one of the stops. Absolutely gorgeous. I believe we only saw the Dutch side, though. And at the time (1991) I had no idea about potential crash beach. That would have been cool!
The French side’s also quite nice, and the “vibe” is indeed different from the Dutch side.
I was with the Spousal Unit, the brother- and sister-in-law, and their daughter and (then) boyfriend, and we stopped on the French side at a little hole-in-the-wall, delapidated beach café with seating under awnings strung between palm trees that looked like it was built specifically to be on a postcard, and had some of the best spicy seafood I’ve had in my life. The photo I took of the fam looks like it was Photoshopped. ”Oh, c’mon! That’s gotta be green-screened!” And yet it wasn’t.
We weren’t even there for the food, but rather for the excellent snorkelling.
One end of Orient Beach on the french side is totally nekkid, if you are into that kind of thing.
Being French, its optionally topless everywhere. I only saw one topless woman the day I was there, but she was far better looking than any of the nudists.
I spent a week on St Maarten in 2010.
One of the cruises I went on with my family and some family friends made a stop in St. Maarten. All I really remember is my friend and I buying some shitty weed, getting high and eating ribs from some guys cooking and selling them on the beach. 10/10 would recommend.
When I was in St Maarten last year, I was with my dad, so didn’t hunt down weed. I should do that next year and just get baked on the beach under the airplanes
This is not my thing, but I love that is a thing.
I hope all who go have a great time!

Saint Martin is indeed pretty sweet. For those who have any interest in sailing this is an awesome piece of sailing history:
https://www.12metre.com/
Same here. Never been on a cruise because they sound like hell on earth to me and especially Mrs. Dean (for the reasons Swiss gives). He’s got me rethinking, but I doubt we’ll be attending.
I heartily applaud this proposal. I hope it’s a huge success.
I am not one for cruises:
The cruise article made them not look as bad as I always assumed they would be, but the idea of one still seems odd.
My wife has been bugging me for a long time to go on one.
Maybe meeting more of the degenerates here could change my mind.
I will talk to her and we will see.
For being degenerates/deplorables they are a remarkably social group in person (from experience in that college town last summer).
“Good news, sweetie! I’ve decided to give a cruise a try!”
“Bad news – it will be with my imaginary internet friends.”
Better than your imaginary internet enemies.
I have used the shuttles for Ft. Lauderdale airport to cruise port.
Pretty painless.
They are good. Otherwise, you rent a car, stay in a hotel and schmup over there yourself. At extreme cost.
To be clear, the prices listed are actually half the price required? Or if you don’t buy both halves of the room, the cruise line will assign you a roommate?
Yeah, the prices are based on double occupancy. If you are solo, you still pay for two people.
In other words, yes, the prices listed are half the price required.
And the little price chart is deceptive as it shows the individual rate. When I looked at a room it suddenly doubled, and I went from “maybe” to “I’m not spending that much.”
$1600 seems reasonable for a week-long stay in the Caribbean to me. With food included, may be cheaper than a hotel.
But it’s really $3200
If you don’t share a cabin, yes.
I’m an introvert who lives alone. Who would I share a cabin with?
I’m an introvert that lives alone. I definitely plan to bunk with someone, as I spent very little time in my cabin on my cruise last year.
I’ve only been on one cruise, but I only ever went to the cabin to sleep. Gamboling around the ship and day trips to shore took up most of my free time.
/looks at Not Adahn wanting a single passage
/looks at UnCivilServant wanting a single passage
I think I may have a solution.
You’re going to subsidize the empty spaces?
Well don’t keep it to yourself, man! Out with it!
Nobody wants to share a cabin that has gloves hanging everywhere.
No. We’ll be setting up a GlibsCruise on the forums under “Meetups,” which can easily include a clearinghouse for single passengers looking for a cabin mate.
Additionally, Celebrity has occasionally lifted the “single supplement” on cruises, but has not released the list of cruises that applies to for autumn 2024 yet.
But for now, it’s $1600 all-inclusive, per person, double occupancy. Suzanne (the travel pro handling the nuts and bolts of the operation) can lower that price if you’re willing to forego the drinks package, premium internet, etc.
Unfortunately we’re unable to even contemplate such a venture.
I will have to see– October usually has a Nationals or two during that month.
DOOM.
Don’t get burned on your cruise.
July 2023 saw extreme heatwaves in several parts of the Northern Hemisphere, including the Southwest of the US and Mexico, Southern Europe and China. Temperatures exceeded 50C on the 16th of July in Death Valley in the US as well as in Northwest China (CNN,2023). Records were also reached in many other weather stations in China and the all-China heat record was broken in Sanbao on the 16th of July. In Europe, the hottest ever day in Catalunya was recorded and highest-ever records of daily minimum temperature were broken in other parts of Spain. In the US, parts of Nevada, Colorado and New Mexico tied their all time high, parts of Arizona, Cayman Islands, highest ever night time temperatures in Phoenix Arizona which also had its record for longest time without falling below 90F/32.2C.
I.e. places with deserts.
Scientists from the World Weather Attribution initiative collaborated to assess to what extent human-induced climate change altered the likelihood and intensity of the extreme July heat in these three regions.
0%.
In line with what has been expected from past climate projections and IPCC reports these events are not rare anymore today. North America, Europe and China have experienced heatwaves increasingly frequently over the last years
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Communism doesn’t know what summer is.
Unless the world rapidly stops burning fossil fuels, these events will become even more common and the world will experience heatwaves that are even hotter and longer-lasting.
There is typically a “heat wave” from July through August around these parts.
Around here it’s been cooler than most summers, but not terribly so. Some hot days, some cooler days. In other words, summer.
Here too. We ain’t popped more than 95 yet, with just a handful of days in the 90s.
Who is going to be Ginger when the ship washes up on a deserted island?
We’ve reserved that role for you.
Hm. I’ll have to think about this before I RSVP.

Elon says it out loud
“We cannot ascribe everything to the vaccine, but, by the same token, we cannot ascribe nothing,” he tweeted. “Myocarditis is a known side-effect. The only question is whether it is rare or common.”
Truly, he is a monster.
Speaking of which, in the link to Celebrity Cruises above, their insignia is an ‘X’. There’s even a giant ‘x” on the boat. I wonder if Elon knows about this.
Just want to iterate that this is for 2024, so you have some time for consideration. But don’t take too long – we’ll need to lock in our group in fairly short order so we can plan for roommate matches and group activities.
I have plans to room with Shpip, but if you all know of any eligible bachelors, I could be persuaded to leave Shpip in the lurch. 😜
UCS? CPRM? I know there’s more but memories aren’t made for this.

You are totally Isaac.
You wanna plan a group event for the cruise, then I will make you Isaac.
Unfortunately we have a budget-buster booked for December.
Unless we have already been vaporized.
I look forward to reading about the shenanigans!
I hope this ship has a “giant kite” to slash carbon emissions, so everybody can cruise in good conscience.
Wow! Using the wind to propel a ship! What will they think of next!
What a fascinating modern age we live in.
We are advancing to. . . sail power.
Maybe we’ll develop a method of harnessing human muscle power instead.
Galley seats still available!
Container triremes incoming
But that would emit more co2, the devil’s gas.
You can offset that by growing trees to capture the carbon, then making the boats out of the trees!
Perhaps . . . wooden ships
Nah, that branding would never sell.
Perhaps – Sustainable Organic Construction!
Next is Wooden Ships
Wooden ships ARE sustainable after all.
Anyway, kk is clearly a fed and you’ll all be dropped off at gitmo for some advanced interrogations. 😉
If that’s what the kids are calling it these days…
What color flamingo do you put in front of your cabin for advanced interrogations?
Navy blue top, khaki bottom sprayed on and little sunglasses glued in place.
Don’t leave out the balaclava to hide the face!
Gives waterboarding a whole different meaning.
It was going to happen eventually anyway.
Good point, at least you get a nice cruise first.
Now if I don’t even get the cruise, I’ll be stomping on some feet while in cuffs.
Forwarded this to Mrs N. We’ve been cruising with Princess in the past, but are interested in trying a different line.
Also, last time we cruised out of Ft Lauderdale, we flew in a day early and stayed at a hotel that included free airport-to-hotel and hotel-to-cruise port transportation.
That’s the type of place that I’m looking to book for the group. Also, the hotel will have “stay and park” where you leave your car with them for the duration of the cruise, for those of us who will be driving to Ft. Liquordale.
I think we stayed at a Courtyard by Marriott – it was near a Bass Pro Shop and there was a restaurant next to the store.
You cuntes are still doing this?
Unfortunately, I tested positive for COVID-19 today. I’m disappointed to have to miss critical work on the Senate’s NDAA this week in Washington.

You keep using that word…
House Democrats are blasting Republicans this week with charges of hypocrisy for lionizing a pair of IRS whistleblowers while fighting to defund the agency at large over allegations of corruption and bias against conservatives.
The Democrats say Republicans have undermined the legitimacy of their own star witnesses through months of attacks on the agency they represent, diminishing the public’s trust in the IRS and the agents who make it run.
“It’s a very cherry-picked situation,” said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). “It is hypocritical to call on these folk while also stripping the resources they need to do their job.”
You’ve convinced me.
The IRS needs to be funded to 1823 levels.
Even by AOC’s standards, that’s spectacularly stupid.
CNN: Powerful right-wing radicals are testing democratic checks and balance in both Israel and the US
Yes – nothing says “democratic” like the Israeli judiciary overruling its legislative body.
I’m going to need more data and what the judiciary did.
Technically, you could say SCOTUS declaring laws unconstitutional is overruling the legislative body. So there needs to be more context.
I’m taking issue with the word “democratic”. The Supreme Court is anything but. That can either be good or bad.
https://www.wsj.com/articles/israel-judicial-reform-benjamin-netanyahu-benny-gantz-yair-lapid-e306889b?st=gzf7sjp9wia0e9r&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink
The new law bars the Israeli Supreme Court’s reasonableness test, which lets the court overturn government actions based on its interpretation of that word. The new law barely begins to reverse the “judicial revolution” of the 1980s and 1990s, in which Israel’s court claimed unusual new powers.
So, when the Supreme Court declares the new law doesn’t pass the reasonableness test and that the law is null and void . . . . . . .
How many divisions does the Supreme Court have?
nothing says “democratic” like the Israeli judiciary overruling its legislative body
And encouraging the President of the U.S. to ignore both the law and the Supreme Court.
On topic – Oh Dear
A few years ago, State Dept offered temp assignments to Fed direct hirees to process passports for, like, 6 months. They cleared the backlog pretty effectively doing that. I would have done it (it was located in NH) but I’m a lowly contractor.
I believe you didn’t need a passport to go to Canada in 2008. Or when did that change?
My wife and I both got new passports last spring. Took about 6 weeks.
What I want to know is whether it’s easier to get a passport or to get the Real ID… when you’ve married and changed your name, divorced (technically a dissolution,) then married someone else and changed your name again…all without ever getting copies of those silly marriage licenses. 🙄
Someone may have answered these questions before and I’m just repressing the answer because I dread going through the hassle.
My wife sent in an old passport that expired more than a decade ago along with current driver’s license information and birth certificate. She received her new passport in about 6 weeks.
Now she can get a Real ID DL at her convenience.
If you really wanted to be inclusive you’d ban those bigots
An inclusive society demands inclusive platforms. As a member of the LGBTQ community, I try to support companies that don’t just talk about open and safe workplaces, but practice these values in their products. Platforms that don’t amplify hateful ideologies under the banner of freedom of speech. Freedom of speech, dear reader, is not synonymous with freedom of reach.
It’s a festival of to-be-sures.
freedom of reach
So, naturally, silence your critics.
Remember, it’s the users who make or break a platform, not the billionaire at the helm. In the end, power rests not with the likes of Musk, but with us, the consumers. So, for those of you keeping score, this might be a prime example of the free market at work.
If you continue to use twatter… well, you know what that makes you.
LOL at thinking that Twitter/social media users are on the consumer side of the equation.
Yeah, never mind the government goons looking over the platform’s shoulder demanding censorship. Nothing to see there at all.
This is perfectly Japanese in both the crime and the police actions.
I’m guessing the something was up with the daughter and the deceased.

What 62 year old man hasn’t lost his head at the prospect of a relationship with a 28 year old woman?
Did you really need the autopsy to reveal the fact he had been decapitated?
From the wording it sounds like the decapitation was post-motrem, and the stabbing was what killed him.
*post-mortem
I’m being lysdexic today.
To be somewhat fair he could have been drugged or killed some other way and the head removed to make identification more difficult.
Taking just the head in this day and age isn’t likely to hinder identification much however.
I get that, but the wording made it sound like they had no idea he was decapitated until they did the autopsy.
That’s no way to get a head.
Singing “I ain’t got no body”
Has anyone seen Jack Bauer? I think they may have the wrong suspect…..
multiple stab wounds, and was decapitated
I watched the end of Thirteen Assassins last night. It was a festival of stab wounds and decapitation.

It’s not especially clear what really did and didn’t happen here, but it’s all sketchy. What’s more interesting is the citizenship and applicable laws and country.
Sounds like they did a secret indictment to beat the statute of limitations. Smells like bullshit to me.
Anything done in secret by the government is invalid and those who do it need to be imprisoned.

By lying about Florida education standards and American history?
Extremists in Florida approved new education standards that push a dangerous lie that enslaved people benefited from slavery.
The Biden-Harris Administration will continue to oppose efforts to distort American history and take our country backwards.
What they’re pushing is easily discernible bullshit but how many people will actually look into it?
Just like “don’t say gay” which isn’t what the bill said in any way, shape or form. Lying is their only means of communication.
OT: interesting little trend I’ve noticed on my commonwealth-centric news alerts. Both BBC and Radio New Zealand have been popping regular stories on disinformation. Things like family members worried about relatives who are “deep” in disinformation networks or former disinformation network members who “escaped” and are now sharing their stories. Not sure where it’s going yet, but intriguing nonetheless.
It’s the Kiwi version of the crazy uncle who only listens to Fox News in the US.
This is an awesome idea. I’d absolutely be in, but I might not make it due to the kids.
Had a look at the Celebrity website…just sayin

One of the rest of you will have to become the Grand Old Man of the Glib Cruise, just as I am the Grand Old Man of the Honey Harvest (Fourscore is the Spectacular Old Man).
What do you have planned for Oct. of 2024?
The wife and I will be in Kobe, Japan and Daegu, Korea for pretty much the entire month. Visiting her family.
I will be half working/half vacationing.
Remote work is really an excuse to escape from in-laws. When they start proposing that we drive an hour to some other village to meet some shirt tail relation, I can demure saying I have to work. Surprisingly, if they want to go to the local soju tent, my work will be done.
And before you and your brother get any ideas, we have a house sitter. So don’t think you can come down here from your sod hut and whoop it up in the big time.

That looks very interesting. I wonder how many people get killed from close-quarters-related frustrations and annoyances.
