Chiefs Carnival Cruise Ship Stranded For 3rd Day - Sewage "Running Down The Walls" - Page 12

houstonwhodat · 02-12-2013, 01:12 PM

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

Great news, Monty.

So monty, did she answer the key question? Did anyone on the ship resort to cannibalism?

**Iowanian** · 02-14-2013, 10:19 AM

It is taking a lot of self control to not compose a poem about the valentine's day that returned a wife to a husband after being adrift on the high seas with Jake and the Neverland Pirates for several days.

Glad she's about home Monty.

Well they aren't complaining of it tasting like oil either...

Nope, but she did say that there were tent city groups, one in the library, etc., so it's undetermined at this point because each "tribe" keeps to themselves.

If you really want to keep an eye on it, here's a link of it being towed to port

Now they're saying it may not dock until 8pmish tonight, but customs agents were taken out to sea this morning to board and have everyone through customs before they actually arrive in Mobile

Do they have to declare their bags of feces?

ptlyon · 02-14-2013, 12:31 PM

Somehow I don't think they will be handing out "please rate your stay" cards to people as they file off the boat

**Iowanian** · 02-14-2013, 01:35 PM

Hee Ho Here you go.

Captured by gulf coast pirates
drifting hopelessly at sea
I've been dreaming for your quick return
from the SS minnow you soon will flee.

We'll hug and say I've missed you
I'll be waiting near by in the car
I've got something like a wooden leg
to welcome home your rusty star.

My Castaway Valentine
My heart has ached for you.
While you were tanning on the upper deck
my balls have turned 3 shades of blue.

But if you should not make it back in time
There are 2 reasons I'll be fine
while roses may be red, and violets are blue
a case of beer is cheaper than dinner just for 2

When you disembark the Jolly Roger
walk with dignity and class
But Soon I'll use my One eyed pirate
To knock the barnacles from your ass.

I'm glad you're at home, stop talking..
now remove those soiled clothes.
Tonight I'd better wear a condom
Or I might shoot it out your nose.
