Only for those who cruise twice or more each year! Please enter the age of the older spouse or partner.

Aaa, why aren't you including once a year or once every two year cruisers? Or better yet, no stipulations at all? I don't know if I should of voted...I cruised only once this year but twice last year.

Amazing.....three votes b/4 I voted....I had to vote to review the results! Twas only minutes!!

K....those would be different polls....I geared this one to the addicted, or borderline, who need at least two "fixes" a year, and, yes, they probably tend to be older, but, we'll see!

You better minus my vote since I only cruised once this year. I clicked the wrong button by mistake, I should of clicked the 39 and under :)

I am not sure I really understand the purpose of this poll...I'd take it as a given that folks who are able to cruise more than 2 times per year have more disposable income and time and would likely be older/retired.

Or am I totally missing this....

I didn't vote because we cruise once a year or every other year. We have 1/2 the income we had prior to my husband's retirement. He had 5 weeks vacation plus at least 1 week between Christmas and New Year's off when he was working. The down side to vacations during his working years was that putting together a 3 week vacation was so difficult that we only did it twice during his 31 years at Ford. We didn't start cruising until after retirement though. The idea of not having to pack and repack to island hop is what makes it so appealing to us now. As some of our neighbor's say "we're happily spending our children's inheritance"!

ummmmm why is this even important??? Age has nothing to do with it, but in our case (and probably many others) we cruise when we can (both time and finances and things happening within the family - which comes first and foremost) and if family things interfere with that or other circumstances, then so be it. Every year is different and I'm not voting b/c things change from year to year and its not important - we cruise when we can and when it works for us.

Also, what about us young Chickee Babes who marry older men (Ladies, he lied about his age but it's the only lie he's probably ever told) and we both still work so we CAN travel twice a year?

I'm confused too! I don't really see what information you are trying to get. That old guys have more money? That young guys have more money than time? Don't get it.

Maggie

probably screwed up your poll.. it asked how old I am so I did me.. who is of course like my neighbor ,ChatKat another young chickee baby.. ;)

I have been gone for ten days - this is a really silly subject AA - and I refuse to type all the letters in your name - J

I wondered about this poll, myself.

Sorry, AAA, but it might be time to go back to the drawing board and come up with something else.

Have missed you Denise - Joanna

Missed you, too, my friend! How was your visit down our way? Hope you had a great time. We just got back from visiting our granddaughter in Portland.

BTW, I answered the poll....80+

Ok, let me be the last to post here and allow this thread to die a dignified death...

R

aaa....It's impolite to ask a person's age, and you should know, ladies don't divulge their age.

And if those aren't reasons enough, I'm also another chickee baby so the poll's validity would be doubtfull!

Sorry R....You know I can't shut up, but will not post again!

How many years differnce constitutes a "chickee baby"?? I wonder if I'm one?? Or is it one of those...if I was, I'd know it!

Now I'm doing it!! But I want to be a "chickee baby" too!!

Hmm...was willing to vote, but not available anymore. I don't mind these kinds of polls, as they are so annonymous.

Sorry
I enable it again
John

Why?

R

Anyone who has met you, Marcie, knows you are one great Chickee Babe!

R - of course you can be a Chickee Babe. Just have to take you down to Trashy Lingerie on La Cienega.

All the girls go there for the latest. (For those of you who need to know, it's where J Lo, Madonna, The Playboy Bunnies and the West Hollywood Crowd etc. get alot of their clothes) Sort of an upscale Victoria's Secret.

Well, already a member. Upscale? Not in my estimation of things...

R (cardholder for a friend...yes, really)

:D , R

Masaki

Maybe we should have a poll of how many chickee babes there are here.

Well, Chip....I might have a chickee babe friend or two to introduce you to....

R - the upscale was sarcastic....

And for the rest of the Chickee Babe Club - live gloriously today

Kathy. Do they like cars and cruising?

Figured as much, K - the place is a little on the scary side...

R

Chip,

Hey, they're my friends. What else?

Um, can anybody say..."hijacked post"?!?

LOL

R

Hey Robert, I didn't intend to hijack this tread, nor was I trying to find romance. I was just trying to make a cute comment. Which may of failed.

Maybe Ngaire should start a match forum??

Kathy. Your friends would love me. Trust me.

No, C, I always think your quips are funny. The post got hijacked a bit ago - I was amused, that's all.

I think that luxurycruisetalk.match.com is a great idea!!

R

CruiseMatch.com
:D ;) :D

ohhhh even better, S!

R

I think you are a beloved member of this board and I hope you don't mistake my, now and then, crankiness as anything other than that - I still refuse to type your name with all those letters but that means nothing other than laziness on my part - you must realize now that an age discussion/poll was not going to sit well with some of us age sensitive women - and why didn't you have age category "young at heart?" Peace - Joanna

The poll, as all here, are anonymous, and, besides, I can't believe anyone cares, as Olivia pointed out....nobody knows the age of your vote!

Well as Dr. Phil says.....you just don't get it...but that's ok..you are still a fun poster and one I enjoy - Joanna

Hey guys...It is not worth the energy going back and forth. The voting was anonymous and those that didn't want to vote certainly didn't have to. Now can we go back to our usual laughs and smiles? ;)
