Don Sherman was a resident comedian on board the "Summi=
t", our ship of choice for a cruise to Hawaii and back 15+ years ago. =
He kept all in stitches with a hilarious evening show in the Celebrity Thea=
ter, and he also met in the afternoon in a smaller setting to share his tal=
es.
My wife walked in late (coming from an ice-carving demonstration elsew=
here) and, in comic fashion, he began to tease her for sneaking in. He aske=
d where she was from and when she said ‘Wyoming’, he looked quizzically at =
everyone and said, "People live there? I thought it was just a w=
ord on the map to fill in the empty space where no one wanted to live?"=
;
A few other lines stood out.
 =
;
"Is the bathroom in your cabin as small=
as mine? I am a guy with a 48-long tuxedo and a 26-short shower."
&qu=
ot;Enjoy the food. You paid for it, get your money’s worth. Just remember, =
you came on as passengers and head home as cargo."
"Talk about go=
urmet food. There’s a man at my table who eats things I wouldn’t fish with.=
"
About the room steward he added, "I think that boy lives in my =
dresser drawer. I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and=
when I returned, my bed was made up and a chocolate on the pillow."
When=
the ship shuddered a bit during his act on stage, he quipped, "Hmm. T=
he captain promised he would stop drinking on the bridge."
