Many thanks for considering my request. LIFEBOAT Activity: Your ship is sinking. There is one Lifeboat left that can only hold seven people (You and 6 others). As captain you have to choose who out of the twelve remaining passengers gets a place. You realize that you may be out to sea for a while as all communication is down. The list you have is as follows: Lola - She is a 22 year old go-go dancer who was on the boat to relax from her recent breast augmentation surgery. She suffers from clinical depression and has had 2 suicide attempts but none in at least a year. Mary Anne - She is a 45 year old experienced nurse and single mother with 2 school aged children at home however they are living with her sister due to a Child Protective Services because she is an active alcoholic. Billy - He is a 16 year old boy on probation for stealing money from old ladies. He is very charming, friendly and helpful when he wants to be but cannot be trusted. Dr. Storch - He is 55 in good health except he has a prosthetic leg from a car accident. He is very intelligent but likes to throw his knowledge in everyone's face as he is a bit arrogant. Sheena - She is 30 and is an ex- fitness instructor with an athletic build however she is HIV positive from a being raped one late night after working on the side as a cocktail waitress. Mickey - Mickey is in his mid 40's and is unemployed cocaine addict, however he is unusually strong from years of street fighting and working on the docks. Mickey has a disfigured face from the years of street fighting and his hygiene is not the best. Shane - Shane is a genius age 39 with a degree in cellular biology, making breakthroughs in his work on a cure for cancer but he is in a wheelchair and he comes across as selfish and rude. Tom - He is 41 and a hero from both gulf wars but he hears voices when he isn't medicated. Cindy - Cindy is a 70 year old retired schoolteacher with 4 adult children and 15 grandchildren. She also is an expert chef and homemaker. Cindy is a chronic smoker who is awaiting test results from a test indicating she may have lung cancer. Barry - He is in his late 20's and has survival techniques from his years as a hired mercenary. He angers easily with a short temper but otherwise has excellent leadership skills when calm. Barry admitted to you that he killed someone in a fight at a bar in a 3rd world country many years ago and he never was caught and claims it was self defense anyway Xavier- He is 18 and in good health, but he barely speaks English as he is from some strange country you've never heard of but he is an aspiring musician with a newly signed record contract for playing the zither. He is a on an international terrorist watch list but swears he is being wrongly racially profiled. Fred - He is a 40 year old husband and father of 4 and an expert in yachting and sea navigation and in good health but since you have been on this boat trip he has gotten on your nerves often because he is very opinionated.
