OVERBOARD! SAFE

CNN has been reporting the news of a man and a woman who went overboard
from their balcony cabin on the Grand Princess. This happened sometime
around 1:AM according to witnesses. Both have been rescued thanks to
the crew and coast guard according to one of the other passengers.

CNN says: "The U.S. Coast Guard plucked two passengers out of the Gulf
of Mexico on Sunday five hours after they fell off a Grand Princess
cruise ship, passenger Kevin Shaw told CNN."

AP says: "Lamb said cruise ship personnel made the recoveries and that
a Coast Guard helicopter was standing by in case anyone needed to be
evacuated to a medical facility."

Remember kids, no sex on the balcony railing, especially
if you've been drinking.

They were probably having a heated argument,and in the ensueing battle
got a little rough with each other,and ended up overboard.
POINT====If you are mad at one another just walk away.

Presumably, they will be added to this list
shortly--http://www.cruiseserver.net/travelpage/other/man_overboard.asp

They should remember this date as a very lucky, lucky one for them. Many
people who fall from balconies hit something on the way down. They must have
had friends with them to sound the alarm. Had they been alone, they would
simply be missing and cruises would be labeled dangerous places to be.
It would be a heck of a fight for both of them to go over the rail so I
agree with Lee.

The man was reportedly naked when fished out of the water. Methinks
they were having a little fun on the railing, and fell overboard.
Talk about embarassing ;-)

Of course he could have disrobed in the water so that his clothing
didn't weigh him down. He could have gone over in complete formal
attire.

Then again had he been wearing slacks, he could tie the leg ends in a knot,
fill the pants with air, and have a floatation device (life saving
technique). Doesn't work too well with boxers or briefs though :-)

This jumping overboard is becoming a fitness activity for the alcoholic
passengers.

Too bad these three survived, as others will be sure to give it a try,
thinking the the CG will pick them up.!!!!

Then again, had he been wearing a condom, he could have inflated that
to use as a flotation device.
