I couldn't find anything. I saw one advert, but I couldn't reply, and I wasn't sure it was for a Justin OTB cruise.

Meanwhile, my expensive order for a singleton is "processing," and if the bank rejects the card whilst I'm on the Magical Mystery Tour, I won't receive their fraud department's call to the landline (the usual go-round for purchasing concert tickets), so even if I try to find a roommate in the interim, I could only be bringing mayhem upon the kind soul.

My expensive order continues to "process." The bank shows no evidence of it. I called to ask the fraud department to "put a note on the account" that the charge would be legitimate, the usual routine. I'm supposing the the charge was flagged, nobody read the note, and fraud control called the office whilst I am on the Magical Mystery Tour.

Whine, whine, whine.

On facebook, once you are signed on (www.facebook.com) look for "OnTheBlueCabinmate: and you should find the group, join it, that simple.

I'll double check just in case.

Buena suerte.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/511121465647285/about/

or look for "On The Blue Cruise" several groups. There is also "Moody Blues Cruise find a cabin mate" groups. I just can't keep track of it. If you see Scarlett Brubaker, she's a nice gal, she might be looking for a cabin mate.

I feel a little ill over it all.... I was very very very close to going ahead and putting down a deposit on a cabin with some friends, but .... well it's a matter of "If I had nothing better to do and endless funds"............ I think ahead, I may need that money for other things, I've "been there" on destinations, I've seen the Justin solo shows (and the others too) and I very much enjoyed visiting with my friends.

I've done two Moody cruises. That is just fine, and plenty. I have lots of land forms I want to see in the middle of the continent, I like having my own car (not having to pack on and off planes and stagger through airports) and I do not have to rely on some snot nosed aircraft mech out in a cold hanger who probably smoked a joint for breakfast, turning wrenches on the plane I'll be 30,000 ft high in.

MY fondest wish is they would do a cruise out of a west coast port, and DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. My biggest gripe with the Moodies is they get stuck in RUTS. For years and years and years they did the SAME line up of songs over and over and over... we go for the joy of the music, for the joy of seeing our musical heroes. But they did the same thing over and over and over. It's been so refreshing to see that lovely video, hear the music put together in different ways. NOW they threaten to do nothing but cruise in circles around the Caribbean.

BLAUGH

Thanks for all the leads. I'll follow up when I return to the mother ship. It looks like the Magical Mystery Tour is winding down, which is either good or bad. I'm learning to roll with the punches. Once I'm back, I'll find out what is going on with the cabin I thought I reserved. I'm is-posing it's nothing.

I think I said before, Justin could sing, "My Dog Has Fleas," and I'd still be showered in all the love he brings to the shows. I could post a video about being willing to sail any ocean, but it's getting old. Ah, why not? Those little lovebirds are so cute.

So how about this. That "horrible" guy in the White House managed to drop my taxes so much I think I can actually afford to cruise now. Are you still interested leslee??? No bailing out at the last minute now. I'm talking the Justin cruise of course. But I know you have a lot of other Moody irons in the fire, so if not... it's cool

Anyone else who wants a CHEAP interior cabin, you can email me at josiec5150@gmail.com leslee you know my phone! I'll try to listen for it all night.... but it's looking a bit better now.

One thing. Please promise me you won't post anymore Andy and Marie videos. Or not in this thread anyway....

Nobody is horrible. Some have better judgment than others. I listened to a fair analysis by the Cato Institute today, which is available online. I will say no more concerning the matter on this board.

Check your email.

Were you any worse off for me bailing? I thought I had paid in full. Let me know if you got stuck with extra charges. It was not my understanding that that would happen.

As I'm sure you've noticed, I don't have much integrity, and so the way I keep my soul alive is to run when things get ugly. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. In other words, I reserve the right to bail out at the last minute, as long as I don't leave you or anybody else on the hook for my decision.

How do you know so much about me?

Objection noted, but it's still a free country. What if a situation arises in which it would make perfect sense? OK. How about Andy - except one must replace "girl" with "Justin," etc.

video with pretty picture

Nice picture. I'm in a CMYK mood. I thought of that song yesterday when I was playing Google Man (a.k.a. Google Earth). I chanced upon a sky crane and had to look up to see what it would do. As expected ...

In Germany, the word "frei" means "vacant"

Use "frei" in a sentence:

Es gibt viele Close-Up-Plätze für die Justin-Konzerte frei bleiben.

Tickets kaufen. Kaufe viele Tickets. Kaufe jetzt Tickets.

Bitte.

De nada. I told you I can't read German. If I were dumped in Berlin with my book, I could be forced to learn it.

Ich möchte die Aufmerksamkeit der deutschen Bots erregen, damit sie die Konzerte bewerben können.

(Copy text. Go to Google. Type "German English." Paste text on the German side. Hier est!)

BTW, it looks like the Danish shows are selling well, and those in the Netherlands are getting a lot of promotion. I can't tell how the English shows are doing, but Justin is always popular in England, right? I once had a taxi driver who absolutely adored him and said the whole village did. He said Justin lived in St. Ives, and I left it at that.

It reminds me of the time I was in France, and the lady with whom I was staying and collaborating learned I was obsessed with a rock star, so she took me to see (one of) Elton John's homes. It didn't do a thing for me.

Moodies were really popular in the Netherlands that's for sure.

Sir Elton is ok but I have no desire to see his home. There is allegedly a "Moody trail" in London and Brum you can follow all the places they did significant things. Again sounds like too much work, but if it turns you on, it's ok

I've never been into historical tours. I can't see history, only aesthetics. Some places feel right for no apparent reason, either. I used to be drawn to places, but I haven't felt that way in a long time.

I need to take you through some Indian mounds, or cliff dwellings. You might like those? Ever go petroglyph hunting?

No. At this stage in my life, the only time I will go out of town will be to see Justin or to see family. How much vacation time do you suppose I have?

I'll have to sit it out. I couldn't deposit my check, and I'm depleted from taxes/transmission/cruise/feeding my fat face/etc.

I popped on this thread wondering about the upcoming OTB payment... PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP if you plan to sit out the cruise. I need to make other arrangements.

Remember I have a spare ticket for the Fall River show. I'll sell it out front if you don't want it.

I hate to use a back channel, but read your email. Fear not, you will have a very good room mate.
