Two philosophers were sitting at a restaurant, discussing whether or not there was a difference between misfortune and disaster."There is most certainly a difference," said one. "If the cook suddenly died and we couldn't have our dinner that would be a misfortune -- but certainly not a disaster."
"On the other hand," said the other, "If a cruise ship carrying Congress was to sink in the middle of the ocean, that would be a disaster -- but by no stretch of the imagination would it be a misfortune."

Yeah, that could definitely be messy...though, not a HUGE loss. ;)
Ha ha! Some would say it was an act of God :)
Can a ship become a sub if Congress is embarked?
What a waste of a lovely cruise.
Would that mean then that Congress would be 'sleeping with the Lawyers'?

Still a waste of a cruise.
Aloha!
I'm not so sure the second scenario would even be classified as a disaster
Why don't we get your Congress and our the UK Parliment on to a cruise asap and hope it sinks!
Whaddya mean? no cook is a disaster of catastrophic proportions!!!
Politicians drowning on a sunken ship is a blessing
That's hard to argue with (y'all). :)

I agree with Tony, it would be a blessing.
