Norwegians Do It Better!

 

Norwegians Do It Better!

By and large, personal stuff doesn't go up here. But in the light of recent events that took place involving the luxury cruise ship Costa Concordia off the coast of the Tuscan island Giglio Island,  I think this flyer I got in the mail recently is appropriate.

 

Not sure what "cruise like a Norwegian" means, but based on the bikini clad babe with great "lungs" getting her swim on in the deep blue sea, I like it. So much so I thought about booking a cruise, even in the face of the recent disaster of the Costa Concordia. Seven day cruises from $349.00, that's a steal! Free balcony upgrades, all ships - all destinations. Wow!

Here's the dude who ran the ship aground, Captain Francesco Schettino. And when the going gets tough, and you can see that Capt. Schettino is by the way he's gettin' ready to throw from the shoulders, the tough get going for the lifeboats, leaving all civilian passengers on ship to fend for themselves! Verification on just how Capt. Schettino was photographed in an upright position for this photo, being that he's completely spineless, still isn't forthcoming.

 

 

As more information about the crashed and abandoned ship came on the news, my eyes trailed from the ghastly watery grave that some passengers met showing on television, to the words "Norwegians take it to the next level" in big yellow letters on the flyer. My mind reeled a bit, "WTF does that mean?" In my head: crashed ship - Norwegians take it to the next level? Crashed ship - Norwegians take it to the next level? Back and forth, back and forth. Crashed ship = Norwegians take it to the next level! What, they just won't crash the ship into rocks, have their Captain abandon ship leaving scared and trapped passengers to fend for themselves. Norwegian Cruises would douse their ship in gas, break out the flaming arrows, firing on the vessel from the lifeboats, and send that ship to a fiery grave, Viking style?!
