I don't know that I'd do another Caribbean cruise, but I've had a blast on the two Virgin cruises we've done in Europe. It's a great way to see Greece since everything worth doing is on an island anyway.

How do you do two virgin cruises? You and somebody else?

One of my friends lost his virginity on a cruise, I think junior year of high school.

Virgin, as in Richard Branson's family of companies.

I've done a virgin cruise as well, and they are probably top for me so far.

The only cruise I would recommend is the Alaska inside passage cruise. It's really the only way to see the area and there are glacier/whale/town excursions that are really fun.

Also, just Caveat Emptor but the Disney Cruise is just freaking terrible when you're not allowed within 150 feet of a minor. Felt like I was playing minesweeper just using the sit down toilets near the pool

As a form of repayment for that joke, I present my new watch from RGM. This watch is doubly special because it was mostly (>90%) made in America, and is practically free since I paid for it 17 months ago.

I own several domestic manufacturing companies and it is very important to manufacture stuff in the USA to me so I have always wanted to own a quality American watch. The enamel dial is beautiful as is the movement. Super pleased all around

Nice to see an American watch. I think Hamilton really missed the boat by not sticking it out in the states. At the time they left, being Swiss was all the rage, but now I think there's enough appreciate for Japanese watches, German watches, etc. that having a long established big US brand would have really paid off with the right marketing.

Whatever. I'll have you know Hamilton is elite. It's so elite that you can wear one in FarCry6 and it gives you extra armor protection.

Because wearing a wrist watch is just like wearing a Kevlar vest.

There's a VC that's diagonal because it was made for race car drivers to read while having hands on the steering wheel

( I think it's VC)

eta: I don't know if that's historically accurate , but I read that somewhere

Longines makes a reasonably affordable offset crown watch. I love the VC but that price tag is crazy.

Thats cool, but the VC reminds me of a Dali for some reason. Like it was shifted accidentally. The other one you posted just looks like they rotated the face.

If you mean the total of every check I've ever made from the high school paper route until now, yes.
