According to KP's Mother.....

GALVESTON, Texas – A man and woman fell overboard from a cruise ship in the Gulf of Mexico early Sunday, but both were rescued after a four-hour search and appeared to be in good condition, a cruise line spokeswoman said.
The 22-year-old man and 20-year-old woman fell 50 to 60 feet from a cabin balcony, said Julie Benson, spokeswoman for Princess Cruises.
Both were onboard Sunday afternoon and being evaluated at the ship's medical center. They sustained minor injuries, Ms. Benson said.
The cruise line didn't know how the couple fell, although it appears to have been an accident, Ms. Benson said. The ship, Princess Cruise's Grand Princess, was about 150 miles off Galveston at the time.
The captain turned the ship around after friends of the man and woman told the crew about 1:30 a.m. that they'd gone overboard, Ms. Benson said. The ship's crew used spotlights and rescue boats in the search. One passenger was rescued by the ship's boats at 5:30 a.m. and the other at 6 a.m.
The search was aided by the Coast Guard, and a nearby cruise ship also offered assistance.
The man and woman, whom the cruise line declined to name, will have the option of continuing on the trip or returning home when the ship reaches port.
Such incidents are considered unusual but this is the second this month. A man was rescued off the Florida coast after eight hours in the water.

My friend "I'm In Slacker Mode" aka KP, got a call from her mother today.

"Did you hear about the couple who fell off a cruiseship this weekend and when they were rescued, the man was naked?"

"Um, yeah" kp said.

"Was that CruiserMel?"

When I stopped laughing, I felt all warm and fuzzy. Apparently KP's mother thinks I'm 20.

I love that woman.
