It's time ...

To retire the Costa Crociere brand.

A cruise ship owned by the same company that operated the ill-fated Costa Concordia has been rescued by a French fishing vessel.

The Costa Allegra is now being towed to the Seychelles.

The ship had been drifting without power since Monday when a fire knocked out its generators.

...

Carnival Cruises (Costa's parent company) share price has fallen considerably since Concordia ran aground and this certainly can't help. At this point, you wouldn't get me aboard a Costa ship and I'm not the only one.

Maybe Wyoming should get a Costa cheap and roof it over for their aircraft carrier. I mean, it's not like it actually has to float or anything.:-)

For that special evening on an Italian cruise ship...

Heh.
