John has a wit as dry as the Sahara and as sharp as one of his surgicial instruments. Anyway, coming on a cruise is a great way to get hooked into the NR family. (I think I should get some sort of credit for two commerical announcements so far in this post. Have I mentioned that I will be reading myself to sleep with an NR children’s book?)
