In reply to the discussion: Ghost ship full of cannibal rats could be about to crash into Great Britain [View all]JHB
(38,353 posts)57. So how IS the National Review's annual cruise going this year?
http://www.nrcruise.com
With these speakers, plus our affordable rates - prices start at just $2,099 per person, and "Single" staterooms begin at a very reasonable $2,599 - there's sure to be a rush on reservations. So please act immediately.
The glorious Allure of the Seas will be visiting three ports - Nassau, St. Thomas (USVI) and St. Maarten - and while it's at sea, there will be a tremendous number of all-inclusive exclusives available ONLY to those who reserve a cabin via National Review.
They include:
nine scintillating seminars featuring NR's editors and guest speakers;
two fun-filled "Night Owl" sessions;
numerous "break out" policy sessions;
three revelrous pool-side cocktail receptions;
a late-night "smoker" featuring world-class H. Upmann cigars;
a sunny itinerary and a beautiful fun-filled ship
intimate dining on two evenings with a guest speaker or editor.
If you're one of those people who have ALWAYS wanted to come on an NR cruise (this will be our 35th voyage!) but have yet to do so, well, stops with the excuses, stop with the tarrying - make this the one.
Even if you are solo, trust us - you will not be alone (nearly 30 % of our cruisers are single!). Don't let that be the excuse for not having the time of your life.
And that is precisely what you will have this November 9th to the 16th, aboard Royal Caribbean's luxurious Allure of the Seas, on the National Review 2014 Post-Election Caribbean Cruise.

OP
They don't usually sink ships without first stripping them of all possible pollutants. n/t

The whole idea is to prevent it from getting to shore where the rats could get off.

Helicopter... rat poison... it's not that difficult to imagine ways to kill the rats. Snakes? n/t

The rats are covered by being below decks, there's no guarantee you get all of them or even most.

There's movies about flying piranhas. I think your screenplay is safe. nt

The only pair that can possibly do this justice are Trey Parker and Matt Stone

That is what I was thinking. This could be one of those old movies all we need is to have the ship

Someone took me to a run-down theater in the 70s that showed silents and had an organ player.

I do, too. Not that I want them to go ashore, but I hate seeing any animal suffer.

We mustn't let the rats reach land! Those creatures, alien to our fair lands, would devour all!!!
