Conditions On Carnival Triumph

(It's like the ghost of the Titanic.)

The Carnival Triumph is a ship that's been sailing since 1999, yep this ship was new when Britney Spears was.  The ship was stalled in the middle of the ocean on Feb 10th after an engine room fire caused complete loss of power and propulsion.  

Passengers on the ship have now been stranded at sea for three days.  The employees at the concierge desk have issued a white flag to the passengers aborad the ship saying quote, "We're sorry, but we have no more rooms to upgrade you to."  

We've heard reports that passengers have been forced to eat onion sandwiches due to the lack of food.  Two thoughts:

1. Why wouldn't you just eat bread instead of eating bread that makes you cry.
2. I bet you're thinking twice about that 5th burger you had the other day.

3 days without power and minimal food have proven to be to much for many passengers, with many upset that they were not able to charge their phones.   Passengers have also been asked to use the toilet as little as possible.  The crew has now changed its opinion of men peeing over the side from, "This will not be tolerated," to, "You've been eating onion sandwiches for a day and a half, go for it!"

The ship should dock later on today in Alabama, where it will most likely be converted into a Dixie Stampede.

J-Lo False Advertising?

Ok, so everyone who's been around a television has seen J-Lo's new Fiat 500 commercial where she drives it around shadyish neighborhood streets and talks about how this is her inspiration and all that crap...(If you love it so much then why didn't you stay there? Just saying, if you're still Jenny from the Block then...)

But turns out that J-Lo didn't actually go to the streets that she loves so much. E! online reports that body double did the driving and J-Lo just did the driving shots.

Now if you're like me then you're thinking, "A body double for a celebrity endorsing a car that nobody really wants, no way!" (Seriously, who went running out to be a freaking Fiat? Not me.) (Oh, a Fiat 500 Cabrio, excuse me, I forgot to care)

But when E! and others are claiming that J-Lo is committing false advertisement? Really? Did Britney drink a crap ton of Pepsi? Is Little Richard eating Zaxby's chicken by the bucket? The only person I have faith in is Flo The Progressive Girl.

(Buy some car insurance or I'll cut you)

But am I shocked that J-Lo had the body double drive around on the streets? No. Why? Cause she's a rich celebrity and they probably approached her saying, "You don't even have to drive it around...," or something like that. Who knows how much money she took in for it.
