cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 8:55:47 PM)

Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 8:55:48 PM)
Jamie, I've not been fortunate enough to sail with SevenSeas yet
Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 8:55:50 PM)
Hi everyone
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 8:56:09 PM)
Jamie, somehow I don't think you will take it easy even the first week
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 8:56:14 PM)
how are you VF?
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 8:56:18 PM)
Jamie.. is Barry on that ship now?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 8:56:33 PM)
Jamie, Ray is probably sailed as much or more than you have!
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 8:56:33 PM)
Well, I hope someday you can. It is different than the big ones. Definitely more low key.
Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 8:56:34 PM)

kuki (Dec 18, 2003 8:59:11 PM)
Our guest tonight is Jamie Logan.. Cruise Director on RSSC Voyager... and he's also created a new daily cartoon cruise calendar.. On the SeaSide.. that's full of great chuckles
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:00:07 PM)
how are you?
Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 9:00:14 PM)
hi Sharon
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:00:16 PM)
MaryLou - Yes we met in 85 on the Royal Viking Sky. She was a dancer......CD's only marry dancers. That's what I hear
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:00:23 PM)
Jamie, lol
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:00:30 PM)
Jamie, must be a rule, huh?
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:00:42 PM)
Jamie.. u're lucky I didnt meet her first!! She's a doll
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:00:45 PM)
jamie, and you two have sailed together ever since?
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:06:48 PM)

Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:07:18 PM)

Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:07:31 PM)
no, Mike, he used them a lot.
Mike (Dec 18, 2003 9:07:35 PM)
Jamie: It's hard to be the whipping boy and hero at the same time.
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:07:54 PM)
<<< likes to be whipped.. should become a CD :)
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:08:03 PM)

Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:08:48 PM)

Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 9:08:49 PM)
Jamie - are you on board now?
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:09:05 PM)
Yes. Rehad - not resesutation. I'm surprised to.
Mike (Dec 18, 2003 9:09:07 PM)
Jamie: What is the CD a contracted employee or a full time employee?
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:10:01 PM)
Voyager Fan.. just since there was a spurt of questions... Jamie is leaving tomorrow for Florida to meet the Voyager
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:10:06 PM)
You know we all call them contract but you are a full time employee. But no real corporate benes. We have to do it ourselves.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:10:23 PM)
Jamie, and where do you call home when you are not sailing?
Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:10:24 PM)
Florida weather is a little chilly right now.
RayB (Dec 18, 2003 9:10:26 PM)
Jamie. Do you as a CD do the daily scheduling of activities or does you Asst. do most of it?
Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 9:13:41 PM)
Marylou - he is very disappointed, he has called twice to find out what we are talking about
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:13:45 PM)
Hey Rollerdonna. Yours is on the way.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:13:49 PM)
Jamie, can you give us a run down on your typical day onboard?
TomS (Dec 18, 2003 9:13:52 PM)
yes, for a bachelor, this means I am facing starvation!
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:13:54 PM)

NOTE.. our guest tonight is Jamie Logan, cruise director of the Radisson Voyager.. and creator of the cartoon calendar .. On the Seas Side ( which you can order from our classified ad section.. btw . lol)
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:14:20 PM)
I think most of us have already ordered it!
TomS (Dec 18, 2003 9:14:23 PM)
thanks Kuki

TomS (Dec 18, 2003 9:16:19 PM)
what is the story about the calendar?
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:16:27 PM)
Mike, I collected funny things for ten years (313 cartoons). The artist moved into my house for edith weeks and I locked him in my workshop (his studio)
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:16:30 PM)
tom, jamie has created a cruise calendar

cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:30:47 PM)
Dang - I am slow....Let's see - 6 with RCCL. As for being tough on the crew...yeah I guess but then they are making about 4-6 times what they ca=n earn at home so that can ease some of the pain. And you know our passengers help bring our moods up because you guys are there to have a good time and it rubs off on us.
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:31:41 PM)
When we cruise during the holidays we always try and bring some little trinkets from home as small token gifts for the staff
rollerdonna (Dec 18, 2003 9:31:53 PM)
Best New Years Eve I ever had was last year on Imagination. Crew was fantastic at celebrating!
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:32:18 PM)
Yes. On Radisson we live in a suite...There are no cabins only suites. But size wize it's considerably smaller than others. But the quality of life on those ships makes up for it.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:32:37 PM)
Jamie, but you probably don't spend much time in your cabin anyway
BOO (Dec 18, 2003 9:32:42 PM)
CD still have my night owl card from SOA
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:32:44 PM)

how did Calgary get 50? we're looking at -18 wind chill factor here!

Tweety, Unfortunately, May is probably too soon (financially) for us to go back to Hawaii. But - stranger things have happened!

kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:33:36 PM)
I have to tell you, when we sailed with Jamie & Dana on the RCI Legend, they were the most visible CDs we'd ever met. Walking through the dining room each night just talking to people, etc. Just great
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:33:59 PM)
Maybe they were trying to scrounge our food.. but it was really nice.. LOL
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:33:59 PM)
Jamie, tell me something....how do CD's remember people's names from one sailing to the next one..years later?
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:34:03 PM)
Jamie...so how did you end up working for Radisson?
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:34:06 PM)
Boo - Yes the ol night owl cards!!!! I use to buy a lot of drinks at those gatherings....maybe even had a few myself.
royal_viking (Dec 18, 2003 9:34:32 PM)
Yes, I thought they were great when I sailed with them (a few times) too.
tweety (Dec 18, 2003 9:34:34 PM)

Donna - Remembering names is something you have to work on...Begin by reading the passenger lists BEFORE they get on. But is is work and a talent...not my best attribute.
tweety (Dec 18, 2003 9:35:43 PM)

Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:36:09 PM)

rollerdonna (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:07 PM)

Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:09 PM)

Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:20 PM)
Jamie,,,,that is amazing
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:23 PM)
FAN.. dont worry it always the same woman. LOL
Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:34 PM)
I hope SO!!!!!
susan2 (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:36 PM)
Kuki, were you a comedian on a cruise ship - like as a job once upon a time?
Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:49 PM)
Kuki would make a great CD
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:38:57 PM)
Susan. thankfull.. for the passengers.. NOT :)
Pete (Dec 18, 2003 9:39:06 PM)
then kuki could put out a holiday CD
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:39:08 PM)
and Geela could be his ACD and keep him out of trouble
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:39:12 PM)
Yes. The Italian Tenor - right?
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:39:39 PM)
Jamie.. LOL.. Maybe the Italian Tell her
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:39:47 PM)
jamie, what is the worst weather you've ever sailed in?
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:40:30 PM)
Think I should work as a CD for one day on a cruise ship. That could make a good story...... and I could really use the big $$ LOL
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:01 PM)
One time around Australia (86?) we never made port once - missed 5 I believe. 30-50 footers for 10 days. Don't think many of those cruised again.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:14 PM)
I cannot imagine it
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:19 PM)
what ship was that?
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:20 PM)
that would be horrible
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:27 PM)
Jamie.. did they offer free drinks for missed ports ? lol
Voyager Fan (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:38 PM)
That is one long rollercoaster ride!
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:48 PM)
Kuki, should I arrange it? The job not the cash.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:41:49 PM)
I feel sick just thinking of that
rollerdonna (Dec 18, 2003 9:42:02 PM)
Jamie, I wouldn't have had my head out of the toilet on that trip I'm sure!
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:42:11 PM)
Kuki - open bar and all the crackers you can eat!
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:42:11 PM)
Jamie.. I would LOVE that .. but not for long. Enjoy being a passengers too much :)
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:42:22 PM)
expecially in Australia, I would of been soooo disappointed to be missing all those ports
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:42:29 PM)
donna, me too
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:42:34 PM)
but that would be my luck
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:42:40 PM)
Being a pax is a better deal ( even if you have to cough up)
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:43:10 PM)
oh yes.. but would be fun telling people all my bad jokes before they threw me off the ship
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:43:10 PM)
Boo - Do you have a favorite RCCL CD?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:43:10 PM)
jamie, being the CD....do you hear a lot of complaining pax also?
Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:43:21 PM)
Yeah, when you are a CD - you have to be "on" all the time. Right?
BOO (Dec 18, 2003 9:43:53 PM)
Not really, I did like capt johnny, I think i remember u
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:09 PM)
You do "get it" but with the right attitude you can diffuse most situations and tunr them around... That's kinda why we're there.
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:13 PM)
I remember Capt. Johnny, so far I think he's the best RCCL capt.
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:24 PM)
Have to say that in my humble opinion.. RCI doesnt really have any CDs who stand out right now
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:24 PM)
jamie, that takes a real talent
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:38 PM)
would be hard to do that all the time
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:46 PM)
Jamie, do you know Jim Cannon from Celebrity?
rollerdonna (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:51 PM)
Jamie, have you met any famous people on your cruises?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:44:52 PM)

Jim Cannon and his wife I know of (very well) we crossed paths several times but never met.
Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:46:59 PM)
I thought he was pretty sexy also, Kuki. Sailed with him twice.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:03 PM)
jamie, he is super
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:07 PM)
Cindy.. SEE :)
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:12 PM)
ML...he's not a CD is he now?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:17 PM)

Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:33 PM)
jamie, is it hard to get back in the swing of things when you go back to work?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:38 PM)
donna, it has been awhile
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:40 PM)
he is very busy
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:47 PM)
Jamie.. when u took your break from being a CD and did the art auctions.. how did u enjoy that?
royal_viking (Dec 18, 2003 9:47:51 PM)
Jim Canon works in the office at Celebrity in Miami.
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:48:17 PM)
Royal Viking...ever cruise with CD Ken Rush, he was a riot
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:48:21 PM)
ML - when I am off three months or so it takes a bit of an adjustment but this time I have only been off 7 weeks.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:48:33 PM)
jamie....i see
royal_viking (Dec 18, 2003 9:48:57 PM)
Yes, I cruised with him on the Voyager and Explorer.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:49:13 PM)
royal, with Jim Cannon?
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:49:20 PM)
ML...no, Ken Rush
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:49:30 PM)
oh, I thought that was strange
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:49:44 PM)
Kuki - Art was good but a bit boring. I have a funny story about that ....for sometime later. But when you SELL people do treat you different. I felt like an outcast. But we did like the art.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:49:58 PM)
Jamie, lol
royal_viking (Dec 18, 2003 9:50:02 PM)
No, I cruised with Ken Rush on the Voyager and Explorer. I cruised with Jim Canon on the Celebrity Ships.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:50:13 PM)
I've sailed with Jim twice
BOO (Dec 18, 2003 9:50:17 PM)
I remember Ken Rush
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:50:42 PM)
Jamie.. as a CD you're their friend, and as a art director, you're an insurance salesman?? :)
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:50:45 PM)
Ken was a funny guy - That boy does love the mirror though!
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:50:56 PM)
Jamie, have you ever sailed with a pax who basically lived on the ship?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:02 PM)
does that really happen?
Donna (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:04 PM)
Jamie...I could see that too, LOL
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:23 PM)
you hear about these people who just saile year round
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:34 PM)
ML - Yes we sailed with several who did (and do).
Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:35 PM)
We also sailed with Jim Cannon twice. He is about the nicest CD we've ever encountered. Of course, we never sailed with Jamie. LOL
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:47 PM)
true cindy
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:54 PM)
Cindy.. both definately cut from the same mold
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:51:56 PM)
Jamie...so you really get to know those folks
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:52:18 PM)
I have only the the best things about Jim and his wife both. She did art for a while.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:52:23 PM)
jamie and who is the most famous person you've ever sailed with besides Kuki?
rollerdonna (Dec 18, 2003 9:52:26 PM)
Jamie, do you know Larry Garlutzo from Carnival Legend? He's one talented guy!
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:52:40 PM)
ML..lol
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:53:21 PM)
Roller - I know those Carnival guys are like standup comics.
susan2 (Dec 18, 2003 9:53:32 PM)
Gotta run. Thanks Jamie for all the great info. Have a super time on the Voyager.
Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:53:36 PM)
We've also sailed with Larry and liked him a lot. Didn't know he was still working as a CD - thought I had once heard he was in the office now - something like Jim Cannon.
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:01 PM)
I once played blackjack with the Royal family of Thailand. Not really famous I guess, but really something!
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:12 PM)
kuki, I think that is pretty cool
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:15 PM)
but that was on Seabourn.. not Radisson :)
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:18 PM)
FAMOUS PEOPLE. Common brain??? Well I am trying to think of ones not speaking or entertaining. I guess Liz Taylor would be the one.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:26 PM)
wow,Liz?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:33 PM)
and was she a tough pax?
rollerdonna (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:36 PM)
Larry was there in Aug. not only is he a comic CD, but a talented singer and guitarist also
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:54 PM)
The toughest!
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:57 PM)
jamie, did she have Michael with her?
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:54:59 PM)
lol
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:55:12 PM)
jamie, did she wander around the ship?
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:55:25 PM)
Wonder if the girl who won Survivor will go on a Carnival cruise or a Seven Seas cruise ? :)
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:55:42 PM)
kuki, will be intersting
Cindy (Dec 18, 2003 9:55:43 PM)
That's right. She did say she wants to go on a cruise.
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:55:43 PM)
No this was YEARS ago (86'). Can't remember which one.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:56:10 PM)
now she would be someone to see on a ship!
cd-Jamie (Dec 18, 2003 9:56:13 PM)
For a million bucks she can take a few cruises.
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:56:25 PM)
jamie, you said it
kuki (Dec 18, 2003 9:56:34 PM)
Jamie.. we want to thank you VERY much for guesting tonight!!!! Appreciate your time, knowing you are leaving tomorrow for Florida!
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:56:36 PM)
she could charter the entire ship over and over again
BOO (Dec 18, 2003 9:56:42 PM)
After taxes about three cruises
Host Marylou (Dec 18, 2003 9:56:43 PM)
