Greetings, Fun-atics! It's me, JTFD!

If you're curious about how much fun it is to occupy a crew cabin for six months, read my latest essay, "Cabin Fever," by clicking on "Essays" or by visiting my blog site, "The Fun Dude Abides."

The best thing about working on a cruise ship is sharing bunk beds with another full-grown adult. Fortunately, I really liked my roommate last contract. I was lucky, too, because they say 50% of crew members can't stand their roommates. This is according to a recent survey that was taken in my cabin.

I felt sorry for my roommate because he had a potentially fatal sleep disorder called sleep apnea. The reason sleep apnea can be fatal is sleep apnea can lead to breathing problems, which can lead to chronic snoring, which can lead to me bashing your head in with a tennis racket.

Until next time--have fun, dude!
