Ezspkns, status update from the Chief Engineer of USS Bubble:

Several breakers have blown and electricity supply to the California promenade deck is in jeopardy. Portable generators are being set up, but fuel to run them is scarce. Blame is being placed on greedy folks from other decks, and the vocal passengers want the noisy & smelly generators moved elsewhere.

Captain Clinton was last seen conversing with navigator Greenspan, who seemed nervous. Fleet command informs us a vote of no confidence has been passed, and the new captain is flying out from the bush.

The high tech equipment on board isn't giving good visibility, and the system is unstable. Seems the liquidity flow of spare parts has dried up.

Chief steward Rich was last seen in the disco partying like Elvis. His wife & Mrs. Clinton last seen disappearing together.

Good news is the bow planes are jammed in the up position, and the ballast control plunge protection team are working overtime.

Plenty of life boats for the wealthy class, but losses among the less well connected could be staggering.

More as she develops....
