I enjoyed "Pirates of the Caribbean"! Pirates of the Indian Ocean would be a blast. How much?

Oops, I neglected to click "read more" on your flier. $800.00 per day sounds reasonable.
Due diligence requires that I ask. Will my heirs be refunded in full if I'm killed as a hostage?

Is this a dry cruise? What fun would a dry cruise be? At the end would I say, "I like the way you party"?

I think you would want to remain "dry" on this cruise. The consequences, otherwise, could be fairly serious.
Although, come to think of it, you might be more likely to be well-positioned to get coverage on the national news if, when the crucial time came, you were three sheets to the wind.

Sounds like a great time. I would highly recommend this cruise. If you are going to go on a cruise to the Middle East with an LDS scholar, you could hardly choose a better person than Dr. Peterson. He is undoubtedly one of the most learned, eloquent, and personable professors working at BYU today. And I say this as a person who really doesn't like a number of the things he has done as an apologist. This, however, is something completely different. God speed, Dr. Peterson. I hope the journey is a success.

Will you keep going south and stop in Moroni?

I hope we'll make the headlines!

Well two questions come to mind here:
1: On a relative basis, is there more or less space available to last weeks Muslim gathering at Utah Valley State?? That parking lot appeared almost empty!
2: Other than the implanted reporter from Mormon Times (all expenses paid by Mormon Church), would there be any real journalistic quality to account for "three sheets" at the end of the day??
Open parking lots again I suspect, but Mormon Times can make it look like a March Madness event - I have no doubt!!!

Dan,
Can we expect any lectures from you while on the cruise? I have a list of suggested topics.
1. How to pretend to be a Muslim (subtitled 'Which direction is Mecca again?')
2. Feet washing made easy.
3. How to recognize when the safety is off on an AK47.
4. Close only counts in RPGs and hand grenades.
5. How to say "I am a rich American whose family will pay a large ransom" in Somali.
