Confessions of A Sick Mind

Are you a cruise person? I've recently been back and forth with a couple people about cruises. I'm not a cruise person. Another recent outbreak of the norovirus, the Italian cruise ship disaster, and wanting to be AWAY from people on vacation rather than sitting at the buffet with them for a week and a half keeps me from going on a cruise. And I don't feel like I'm missing anything.

It got me to thinking about other things I've never done...and don't really regret.

Well, I never....

Saw Top Gun. I came of age in the 80's and missed this movie? How did this happen? Not sure, but I've made it this far and seem to be fine. And maybe I'm just not that excited about seeing Tom Cruise and the Lewis from Revenge Of The Nerds doing a duet.

Watched an entire episode of American Idol. Even Steven Tyler (very cool) and J-Lo (easy on the eyes) isn't sealing the deal for me. But if Ryan Seacrest wants to hire me as a writer for his new TV empire, I would let his people talk to mine.

Liked Fraiser. Seriously. As soon as they took him out of the bar, he was annoying and not funny. If I want an old show about a radio station that's actually funny, I'll take WKRP, thank you. (Don't ask me why I bring up either of these shows in 2012.)

Went To Vegas. It looks fun in the Hangover and Oceans 11, 12, 13 and 99, but I'd be nervous it would end up like in Casino or 21. Maybe I'll go someday, but my list has other places I'd rather see first. And if I want to inhale that much smoke, I'll go to Europe. The landscape is nicer there.



Played Golf. I know, right? Don't get me wrong. I love walking, drinking all day and breathing fresh air. I just like doing it on my own time. I know some people use golf to get away from their family for a few hours, but I happen to love spending time with my family.  Just not in a buffet line at sea.
