1. Nah, plenty of innocent cruise staff might die in that wreck
And you know the Ayn Rand "Meefirst!!" types will take all the lifeboats, leaving the staff to drown

3. Maybe the staff could jump ship and leave them all to drift away?
I'd pay good money to see that

10. Or a really bad norovirus...
On the upside, a severe case of diarrhea may cause the lot of them to be less full of shit, but I doubt it...

5. No, but at some point that ship will be in international waters.

I wonder if the Spanish Navy will be watching them?

18. Cue World Party ...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdeIZkZo2PM

We're setting sail
To the place on the map from which no one has ever returned
Torn by the promise of the joker and the fool
By the light of the crosses that bur-urn
Torn by the promise of the women and the lace
And the gold and the cotton and pearls
It's the place where they keep all the darkness you meet
You sail away from the light of the world

Listen baby - you will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow
You will pay tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-wow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow

Save me, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no
Oh-oh-oh, save me, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no
I want to run and hide
Right now - ri-ight now-ow yeah-eah-eah

Avarice and greed are gonna drive you over the endless sea
They will leave you-ou drifting in the shallows
Drowning in the oceans of history-y-y-y
Travellin' the world, you're in search of no good
But I'm sure you're philosophic like I knew you would
Using all the good people for your gallant slaves
As your little boat struggles through the the warning waves

But you will pay, you will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow
You gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-wow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow

Save me-ee, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no no no
Oh-oh-oh, save me-ee, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no no no

Where's it comin' fro-om or where's it goin' to?
It's just a - it's just a ship of foo-oo-oo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ools

12. Why no Michell Malkin? I hope pirates get it.
Hold them for ransom and see how much money the freepers and the other knuckle draggers can raise.

15. No, because I'd worry about the staff
I can, however, hope for a severe norovirus that all the ship's staff have already gotten over and are immune to.
