Gone East

Andy Ihnatko recently went on a MacMania cruise. His first-ever cruiseship experience. He was particularly tickled by the prospect of a ship full of all-you-can-eat buffets.

"...a lot of my time is being spent selecting items via tongs and then eating them. 'I'll take a third cheeseburger,' I thought during my first trip through, 'just in case my chair has a short leg.' A friend told me that on a cruise ship, you don't stop eating when you get full: you stop when you get tired. I intend to test this. Is man meant to sit in a hot tub eating a strawberry sundae with his right hand while sipping at a blender drink with the left? I intend to test that, too."
