Jack's Daily Excerpt:
The Solarium, too, must just be a crazy scene, the kind of place where you might be able
to actually convince someone to lash together a couple of deck chairs,
wrap it in a tarp and try a human kite/parasailing experiment off the stern
(that's nautical for back of the ship). I've been trying all day to work
up some enthusiasm for the idea, but all I've been able to manage is a
few squinty nods. Not even the real dedicated stoners actually sleeping
in the Solarium seem remotely interested in this scheme, but these are
mostly AK natives and/or seasonal ferry travelers, and I sense that a summer
tourist crowd might be more susceptible to suggestions along these lines,
though with the crowd there probably wouldn't be any free deck chairs to
try it with.
