NWLB ************************************* www.RoyalCaribbeanFan.com Wouldn't surprise me a bit to find Lawyers booking cruises so they can be first on the scene of some "slight" or other that might be actionable. They would probably deduct the cruise as a business expense from their taxes. Cheers, John in LALALand (On the Left Coast) |

Growing Rebellion on the High Seas
Thus spake Charles :

Last time I looked, maritime law still looked on the ship's master as "second only to God and King" (well, that cite is a little old). A lawyer jumping up and saying "we're taking over the stage" is getting close to winding up in the brig. I actually wouldn't be surprised to find himself sued at some point. And storming the bridge? Was it a US citizen? If so, Homeland Security would probably like to have a chat with her. Along with the flag nation (Bermuda?). Stupid people who can't/won't read contracts. -- dillon I used to think the horse's name was Bob. And the angel's name was Hark. |
