World's biggest cruise liner

So they ordered this not long before the WW recession. I wonder if they are nervous now...

Reportedly Oasis of the Seas consumes 50 tons of ice cubes (those things you put in drinks) every day!

Not only that, I hear an identical sister ship, Allure of the Seas, is being built as we type. Maiden voyage will be in 2010.

Well, if Caribian business tanks, I'm sure Richard Branson will buy it off their hands, and then come to dominate this field too, recession or not.

The ship will then probably be renamed to Tubular Belle of the Seas.

How does that friggin thing even float? It's a city!
And it looks soooo top-heavy too.

(By the way, I do know Archimedes' principle of water displacement, etc, it was more of an emotional comment...)

If things really tank, maybe Walmart will buy it and have the first floating retail supercenter.

But like the song by the Eagles, "you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave..."

Hmmm... Hotel Walafornia maybe?

Well, if things really tank, Richard Branson will buy the sister ship too. That consumes even more ice cubes and will be renamed to Hergest Fridge.
