It's like hunting, Crissy. It isn't the shot, it's the fun of the
chase. <grin>

If you're an alcoholic, the fifth of booze a day can be rather expensive
when purchased in the form of bar drinks.

I don't see how you're going to bring aboard enough to make it worth the
trouble.

Hotels don't object when you bring a bottle along in the luggage, and
their audience obviously has other choices. I don't think it's any
worse then when we take popcorn and Diet Pepsi to the movies, instead of
buying the expensive stuff at the concession stand. Mrs. Nonny has a
very large blouse she wears, which she tucks in and we stuff with
popcorn. At the movies, people just think we're "in love," when in
reality I'm digging out the popcorn. I prefer to carry the two cans of
Diet Pepsi in my shorts. It gives me a "come hither," look that the
young babes appreciate as I walk across the lobby.

Jaap, we tried it the other way, with Mrs. Nonny carrying the Diet
Pepsi in the blouse and me stuffing my drawers with the popcorn. That
didn't work out well, for obvious reasons I'd prefer not to discuss.

Nonny, just don't listen if anyone tells you you're a nut!

Default Taking liquor aboard the ship

Plastic containers called Rum Runners work great. Passed in our main
luggage AND my wife brought a liter
of whiskey aboard and it made it through the main gang way scanners.
