No cougars on Carnival cruises, but Kid Rock is OK?
By Kyle Wagner
As
popular as cougars have become and note that were talking about
women over 40 who pursue younger men here, not the lovely feline mammal
on TV and elsewhere, their money apparently is not welcome on
Carnival cruises or on any cruise line in Australia.
The first
Carnival Cruise Lines trip in December with a cougar theme brought
together 300 cougars and their cubs, and no one seems to have had a
problem with how things turned out.
However, by the end of 2009,
Carnival decided to just say no to cougars and their prowling. All the
cruise line will say about it is this: Late last year, Carnival made
the business decision not to allow any future groups marketed under the
cougar theme to be booked on its ships. That comes from Carnival
spokesman Vance Gulliksen.
Industry insiders theorize that Carnival wants to maintain a family-friendly image, and thats why they have banned the theme.
However, on Apr. 29, Carnival sets sail with Kid Rock on a Chillin the Most cruise that promises big fun in the sun Kid Rock style. Anyone who has ever seen or heard Kid Rock will have to agree that hes about as family friendly as a pack of dogs in heat.
Meanwhile,
the three major cruise lines in Australia also rejected bids from the
Society of Single Professionals for an Australian cougar cruise. The
group is the one that successfully pulled off the Carnival cruise to
Mexico in December, and now they plan to set sail to the Mexican
Riviera in May with Royal Caribbean and then to the Bahamas in December
with Norwegian.
Want to sail with them? Visit their website for more details on the cruises and other traveling cougar events.
hahahahaha Little do they know This cruise will be Cougar Central...lol
Well nothing is keeping this cougar off that "Chillin the Most" cruise and I don't think Kid will be kicken me off neither LOL!!! Can't wait to party with Kid and all of us fans together!!!!! See everyone in April.

KING: Do you think women are with you because you're Kid Rock?
ROCK: Absolutely.
KING: And that doesn't bother you.
ROCK: I think they get me because I'm Kid Rock. No, it doesn't bother me at all. I'm not with them because they are, you know, geniuses. Right. Let's be honest. No, I think they are with me because I'm Kid Rock. And there's a fascination with them because they are pretty and cute.
If You are Pretty, Cute and Not a genuis (hehehe) You might have a shot...lol

Listen I hate to break it to you but 40 is the new 20 and 20 is the old 40. Just look at Valerie Bertanelli turning the big 50 and looks like a teenager. Age is only a number. Alot of men are like a fine wine they get better with age. Oh and with age comes wisdom and wisdom is awsome.

Wait I play to kill, sike. I read when you play tug of war with your dog and he shakes his head back and fourth and side to side (like my dog did with a stuffed teddy bear), it means they want to kill. My pug was a killer, that's what the mail man called him. Then I read it means that you are really bonding with your little fury friend. Either way my dog won every time, my little tiger, my little lion king. I miss him so much!! If he was alive I wonder if they let dogs on board on cruise ship??? That would have been awsome, he would have stole the show! My dog stopped traffic! This ones for him; Hi bumbee, mummy misses you, you know she talks to you even on kid rocks website she wants you...you, only you my baby...you knew mummy flew only for you. Go seepy. I luv u. Til we meet again. Please excuse us. Tears and kisses forever.
Damn I wish I was going on the Kid Rock cruise. I'd be crawling on all fours until I found him. Then I'd bite his pant leggs and want to play tug of war with him to see who wins. GRRRRRRRRRR, GRRRRRR
