Well the thing is, he docks at all these different places and sometimes spends a day or so there, depending on the route and itenerary (wow that is sp. wrong.) Plus people are boarding in different countries. Right now he's heading to Spain, which I just read some cases have popped up.

    What the heck, I thought everyone was talking about the wine flu, man I need to stop drinking so much. I just order a case of wine flu because everyone has been talking about it all day, now I know why the guy on the phone was laughing so hard. Now I'm probably going to get something called swine wine, ugh!

    I don't believe so.

    I'm in California though..and there are talks of the schools closing for a few days.

    We shall see how bad it gets.

    I would be more worried about those pirates than swine flu on the ocean

    you would be nice. a minimum of i'm ninety 9.99999% particular of it. the possibility is approximately 100x extra probably which you will die of a motor vehicle crash. on account that actual one hundred ten human beings die in u.s. daily from motor vehicle crashes. no person has yet died in u.s. from swine flu. the comparable crap happens each time something new like fowl flu or sars or west nile or anthrax ect. comes out. to no longer say it extremely is not any longer serious and that folk who do get the flu might desire to take warning. yet truthfully it extremely is in basic terms a freakout blown up by skill of the media and stupid ppl.

    I don't know if you should worry or not. If it's not going to Mexico, I guess I would not.

    I think you should ask Tom.
