Not bad. By the way, I heard a couple days ago that the Conservatory has a few weeks to decide whether to save her or not. Based on that, I figure that by the end of October her fate will be decided.

Now I heard that there's this golfing tournament on Saturday (I think it's Saturday) somewhere near Philadelphia. $150 for players, $25 for spectators. The proceeds go towards keeping hope for her alive.

Even with that, I'm all of a sudden uncertain of how this'll work out. It's one of those 50/50 sort of things. Might as well have Tyrone Wells ask "Sink or Swim."

I heard there are a couple of developers who are interested in bringing the United States to New York, I just hope an agreement will be made soon. It's very unsettling knowing this is the absolute last chance the Conservancy has to save the ship.

Hopefully it'll all work out because the Conservancy is trying so hard to keep her going, but I made a second reply because I just found out something. If she ends up gone, that will be it for the American liners, save for the wrecks of the American Star and the Constitution.

Yet, what I wanted to tell you is that it will not be it for the American cruise ships. Have you heard of this cruise ship called the Pride of America? Her hull was built in the U.S., and although she was fitted out in Germany, she became the first American-flagged ship since the United States when she was completed in 2005.

As far as I know, it is indeed. This is it. All we can do is wait. It's out of our hands. Let's pray for the best for the Big U.
