New Quote for the day: "Light travels faster than sound, that way a person may appear smarter until you actually hear them."

Booyah! I just got back from my five day cruise to Cozumel, and it was great! mrgreen Unfortunately we hit some rough waters on the way back and I got a bit seasick, but other than that it was awesome. I even went on one of those submarine rides to look at the underwater coral reefs and I saw sting rays, sharks, schools of fish, lobsters, etc. After that I went shopping and I think one of the salesmen jipped me on this Aztec calendar I bought at a tourist stand. He claimed it was made of cattle bone when it was obviously ceramic... Stupid jerk. stressed

I don't think the locals could speak english very well either. When I entered a store and asked for the price on this mask they kept following me around, trying to get me to buy it. When I told them I wanted to think about it they kept saying "You not want to buy it? Very good quality, you should buy it." When I eventually told them 'no' they didn't seem to hear me and repeatedly told me of its good craftmenship and reasonable price.... sweatdrop
