No 'Splendor' for Passengers on Crippled Ship

The former fun seekers of the Carnival Splendor are cruising again, but just barely. After two days adrift, the ship began moving again Tuesday when the first of several Mexican tugboats arrived. (Nov. 10)

My favorite complaint from this was "it's been four days since I had a hot coffee". Honestly... they have food, and shelter, a rescue, and their ship isn't sinking. People have survived with less.

oh i would be so mad if i paid money to go on a cruise and they tried forcing me to eat spam hahahaha

hard times for people on cruise ships, most have never watched; The Perfect Storm, must be awful on a cruise when something goes wrong.

@terrificandterrible Even if China is crossed about QE2, I highly doubt that they would strike back by endangering cruise passengers.

@terrificandterrible Should know China did a great job protecting the cruise liner with navy drill. Why? What if there's mexican cartels hijacked that ship.

You will be stupid enough to get killed by druglord cartels if that ship isn't prepare for navy drill.

@terrificandterrible Most likely they are shedding all non essential electrical load.

[terrificandterrible]

fire in the engine room takes out the entire electric system? yeah, right. thanks for the disinformation, mainstream media.

[terrificandterrible]

Did China do this? Probably

Cant say I blame China. This is their response to US Economic Warfare with QE2 (quantitative easing). You reap what you sow, america.

[ssips720]

shame on china for this..

lol

In the future movie. the crews will talk about how to handle stranded and angry passengers. It should be design for military to watch over cartels or pirates.

Most of future cruise ship will be unprepare any of future event with blackout ship.

Should investors buy this idea for a movie? Yes.

There's mysterious rocket.... cartels... etc....

[NouCrazyBitches]

This stranded cruiseship could make millions dollars on carnival if the ship reached the sunday. Hollywood could be made out movies and sell for millions.

Reaching Friday or saturday. No. Investors won't buy it. They want to see how the system works if cruise ship reached sunday.

@fry530 lol all carnival cruise ships look the same

[fry530]

Damn, I saw that exact ship sitting in the Long Beach Harbor a couple of weeks ago, interesting.

[NouCrazyBitches]

It's funny as hell for stupid people taking cold shower.

[NouCrazyBitches]

The ship was mostly without power, leaving its bars, casinos, pools and the upper deck closed and its interior rooms pitch black, the Associated Press reported. They will be heading home thursday night.

They are having Cold SPAM to eat for dinner and oakmeal and poptarts on breakfast. All the breakfast room looks dark without lights. No casinos.
