 Them poor bastards We missed our cruise and the boat "Triumph" is stranded in the gulf. They have no power. Updates have been coming in. With no power, toilets, stoves, water, nothing can function. All 3000+ people on board we told to get on top deck and out of their rooms. They were in the process of getting towed back to Mexico, because it was closer but an issue came up with the Mexican gov and they turned them around. Now they are being towed to mobile Alabama. Reports are there is shit, vomit, piss all over the decks. Food has been flown in but fuck that. There gonna be some mofos getting paid after this shit.
On the bright side, this great wolf lodge is a fantastic place to take the kids. Huge indoor water park.

Re: Them poor bastards That is my cruise. It never made it back in to drop them off and pick us up. Suppose to be in yesterday to pick us up. Now it looks like Thursday to get them back. Can you imagine the smell on that ship with all the shit running down the side of the boat.

Re: Them poor bastards Nope. Was told their handing out sandwiches. But it's a first come first serve basis. I know if I was on that boat alone, I could handle the mess and food shortage. But with the kids, no way. You know they got some assholes getting knocked out over a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Re: Them poor bastards Just hope that if you go bowfishing with DDM you don't have engine trouble! Could be a long night...

Re: Them poor bastards That's what pisses me off about the whole thing. We were told that two weeks ago, they had major propulsion issues and ignored it. If they would have did it then, then my ass could have move our cruise to Miami or NO or even Orlando.
