Town leaders in Invergordon, Scotland are expressing outrage today
that a cruise ship carrying more than 100 sick passengers was allowed
to dock this week.
As we reported late Monday, Transocean Tours' Marco Polo is in the
midst of a vicious outbreak of a norovirus-like illness that the UK
media is saying has sickened as many as 200 of 769 passengers -- an
unusually large percentage. One passenger on the ship has died.
'They have let dozens of sick people wander around the town without
any word of warning," councilor Martin Rattray complains today to the
UK's Daily Mail. "'These people have been in shops and cafes, possibly
infecting locals. Why were they allowed to go around when it was known
there was an outbreak?"

Wow. That goddamned bug must be fucking IMMENSIVE to soak over 300
people in its spew!

And I've never heard of a puking variation of "Marco Polo," but this
suggestion comes just in time for DragonCon.

This reminds me of the NATIONAL LAMPOON's appraisal of fine Australian
emetic table wines--the kind which had them plucking them out of the
sewers with gaffer's hooks for hours.

What's all the fuss Ralph? Afterall, ye be a Jones...sons of John.
(which is derived from the Latin Johannes, meaning "Yahweh is gracious").
You of all people should know those Pict gits deserve a good bit of vomit!
As a card carrying Cardiff exile I say the captain should be promoted
to admiral.
