Tonight on The Love-less Boat: A Valentine's Day voyage to the Virgin Islands turns frigid when 'love drugs', holier than thou drama queens and something called 'squeekers' are involved.
Guest Stars: Liza Minnelli, Ricky Nelson, Carrie Fisher, Richard Simmons, Nancy Reagan, Cyd Charisse, Fernando Lamas, Tina Louise, Tina Cole and Tina Sinatra.
Sit right back and read these plot ingredients:
Celebrating their 20th Anniversary, Atlantis Cruises has chartered the Largest Cruise Ship in the World, Royal Caribbean's "Allure of the Seas' (how's that for camp) departing Florida for Nassau, St. Thomas and St. Croix.
And I quote from Dan Howell's Travel Agency in Cincinnati "Unlike any cruise you've ever experienced!'
And people criticize ME for writing over-the-top stories.
The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol joined the ill-fated voyage in St. Thomas. They arrested a passenger for drug possession, who promptly ratted...uh...relayed that he had paid for the dope in advance, and received them upon boarding. Sort of like 'reverse duty-free shopping".
The Feds searched the cabin of the alleged Party-Planner and found 3 grams of meth, 140 1/2 or so Ecstasy tablets, a vague amount of Ketamine, and ...hold on to your hats:
$51 thousand dollars in cash...and a money order for $960.
I don't condone violating international or domestic laws, excess greed, or flat out stupidity. I wince however, when lack of research causes a supplier to run out of the est sellers and then mark down overstocks. 'Luau Night! X tabs 2 for 1!'
What irritates me more than anything were some posts on this cruise on my old alma-mater THE ADVOCATE's website. Luckily there were an equal number of sensible rebuttals.
One reader stated he was 'horrified'. I imagine him to be a repressed prud who accidentally gets a taste of living. Then he turns up at the White Party dressed in scarlet red....smoking Djarums, and cussing.
Oh, and can any one tell me why THE ADVOCATE; reports of people outraged with tweakers now called squeekers'?
Not one to shy away from scandal but embrace it, : Atlantis announced they are returning next year, same time, same ship. I bet it's a sell out:

don't care for sequels. Remember Beyond the Poseidon Adventure ?
And just for fun, here's one of my favorite The Love Boat intros.
