This isn't a commercial (like "Like Milk?")…
Like jazz? Like lobster?
If — like us — your answer is "yes" then American Cruise Lines has an inviting dilemma for you. Actually, one of the "invitings" is the Queen of the Mississippi, and don't take that the wrong way. She's a river cruise ship and in August she'll be takingpassengers on an 8-day jazz special on the Lower Mississippi, from New Orleans to Memphis.
What's a jazz special?
On-board performances by jazz artists — and in that part of the country there's a lot of them — and on-shore tours that focus on the music's history and how it sculpted 
America's music and the big river itself. And in a place like Oak Alley, Louisiana, you think you might find a performer or two.
If your taste is more tangible, think lobster.
American Glory will poke along the coastline from Portland, Maine, and for eight days in July visit the places the lobsters go. You get a chance to catch lobster — "trap" would be the right word — and enjoy a traditional lobsterbake in Rockland. Hmm, do you think that's where rock lobster is found.
On the Glory, one of the events involves "health-conscious cooking and cuisine."
That doesn't mean holding the butter, does it?
