    The captain is pretty screwed anyway for his decision to go off course for fun.

    But I am wondering if he did actually fall off the ship and if he really could not get back on board. There really is not much you can do when a ship is tilted 45 degrees, but I don't know how much the ship was tilting when the captain left it and claimed he could not get back on. The angry Coast Guard operator may have overstepped his bounds. I doubt he was looking at the pictures we have all seen over the last few days. Time will tell.

    In a way, I like the Italians' sense of humor. I like the shirt print :D

    The coast guard operator may have overstepped a bit, but I do believe that he was correct in this situation.

    " The officer confronted him with an expletive-laced order to get back on board, which has quickly entered the Italian lexicon. The four-word phrase has become a Twitter hashtag "

    I suspected already that the conversation was jucier in Italian than in English translation.

    The Truth Matters

    The captain abandoned his ship and left people to die.

    I have nothing but contempt for this so-called captain.
