Will future cruises no longer be crazy, and if so, why not? — JoCo Cruise 2015 Q&A

Will future cruises no longer be crazy, and if so, why not? This is the first cruise that's called JoCo Cruise rather than JoCo Cruise Crazy. The original cruise was a play on the song Tom Cruise Crazy, which is sort of a second tier JoCo 'hit', and a really deep inside joke. As they started doing this year after year and exhausted their circles of performer friends, they had to start talking to strangers, and the name became a little alienated to the people who'd never been here. What if it were called JoCo Cruise Whack-a-doodle? In addition, the word 'crazy' can be a little bit fraught. 

The name apparently makes people think of a bunch of people running around stabbing everybody with no pants on, when in reality we are the best in terms of pants, and we're stabbing-free.

Now, of course, the shorter name screws up hashtags (and YouTube tags) and gets us confused with the Jewish Community Center cruise.
