Carnival Cruise Ship Stranded For 3rd Day - Sewage "Running Down The Walls"
Ever been on a cruise ship?

I haven't and this is one of the reasons why.

I'm sure people have had good times, but to me, you are a prisoner to the ship once you leave shore.

"Foul conditions aboard stranded Carnival cruise ship Triumph: Passengers describe 'sewage running down the walls' and people acting like 'savages'

Since a fire broke out in an engine room Sunday morning, the Carnival Triumph has been drifting off the coast of Mexico. A total of 3,143 passengers and 1,086 crew have been forced to make do with cold food, no hot water, sweltering indoor temperatures, and few working toilets. A tow boat is expected Thursday, after an initial plan to tow the ship to a port in Mexico was scrapped."

No Lights, No Water

Carnival sounds like the Wal Mart of the cruise industry.

A small group of highly organized people could take advantage of the situation and turn this ship into the largest pirate vessel on the high seas.

Just for sport, I'd like to see some pirates climb the wall and hop over the rail into a steaming pile of dook....and then jump back into the water.

I was on Carnival Splendor just months before it had caught fire a few yrs back.

I think it was on the news then.

I'm intrigued by the concept now. If you had a pirate ship that could hold 4,000 people, can you imagine the havoc you could cause? Imagine an amphibious force of 3,000 pirates descending on Charleston or Corpus Christi. You hit the docks, you rob the banks and jewelry stores, you do a little raping and pillaging, and then pull it all back onto the ship and leave.

Now, the U.S. Navy might blow you out of the water before you could hit American soil, but I bet you could hit a place like Santo Domingo or Monrovia or maybe even Malta.

His wife said "honey let's go on a cruise"
We'll eat buffet shrimp and over-priced booze.
We'll nap in the sun and I'll spit shine your pecker
now the cruise ship is broken in need of a wrecker

The bathrooms not working too well any more
and we sit in our economy cabin, the temp 104
The food is all gone the water dried up
now our stunning vacation turned into 2 girls and 1 cup.

The nude deck disgusting, legs getting hairy
duck dynasty bearded bikini lines scary
Our cell phones are dead, no outgoing calls
At least there is bean dip that runs down the walls?

Always the optimist, the good I will find
to see positive news, even when in a bind.
Should a jelly fish sting ruin our bliss
At least there's no shortage, of medicinal piss.

We could be on a beach in Hawaii
where we tent camp and rough it
but now our cruise ship has turned into
4000 people, 1 bucket.

5 days of romance without showers,
now your cooter is rotten.
This trip....your idea
that won't be forgotten.

A couple days without hot food, a running toilet, or AC. Sounds like... camping.


The sewage part does sound pretty gross though.

This ship is twice the size of the Titanic.

All they need is an iceberg now.

Hopefully they're doing okay. Maybe Monty will report back with some interesting stories about what a group of women do when they're stranded together on a ship with no artificial means of entertaining themselves.
