Hey, Jane: Thanks for the memories. Yeah, these old DELTA QUEEN daily newspapers here tell about 'grab bag' etc., and also the 'Poetry Contest.' People we knew (WINK,WINK) entered and won. Those were 'kinder, more innocent' times (or were they?). Doctors on boats/ships have come a l-o-n-g way today. Get sick or stub your toe on a big ocean cruise liner and you'll cough up between $45-$75 + for a consult and medication. Was on a cruise ship a couple of years ago when chicken pox was brought on board by a family with two teen girls. They were quaranteened and it was a mess for everybody. Cheers, hugs, R. Dale Flick
