It's hard to imagine the oil slick behind a beast like this. A shame
these monsters destroy the very thing they're selling.
There ain't none.

It appears that Jer has a Cunard liner confused with a rowboat powered
by a 2 cycle outboard.

One wonders why anyone would think that Cunard Lines would waste the
oil that they have paid so dearly for by leaking it into the ocean?


All boats leak lubricants sooner or later. All big tugs flush their
bilge into the ocean. The sad part is it's legal to do so when not in
port. RCI has been (or still is) the worst pigs in the ocean,
considering the fines they pay every year factored into the annual cost
of doing their business. Ya'll can shell out to cover this commercial
method of destroying the environment, but I won't.

Oil slick? No, but they do leave a trail of air pollution behind. But
they are no longer allowed to dump trash overboard.

He probably has never even been on a boat, let alone a cruise ship.

So they have to do it veeeeeery discreetly, at night.

There are procedures in place that are intended to make sure that
everything the ship left with the ship comes back with. Doing it
veeeeeery discreetlyl, at night, doesn't provide bags of trash to
match the containers that were brought on board, for example.

And what makes you think they actually care about what they're allowed
to do? Laws are a mere nuisance to these whores - they'd **** their own
mother if they could make a dime from the video.

Nice shots. Been a long time since I have been in San Fran. Where does
one park and walk to to take pictures like this?

Good.
Then you won't be aboard to bother those who like to cruise.
BTW, do you drive a car?

Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez
said Wednesday the Hispanic
caucus chairman called her a
whore, just as Joe Biden called
Barack Obama clean and articulate.
Comics are relieved. Until the
Democrats won back Congress,
Michael Richards was out there
all by himself.
