| Until last week, I had no idea that a person could be the godparent of a boat. But I was disabused of that notion when Carnival Corporation (NYSE: CCL) announced that actress Cassidy Gifford "will serve as godmother to its newest ship, Carnival Celebration." You are forgiven if you don't recognize her name, but you may know her parents. Cassidy is the daughter of former NFL Hall-of-Famer Frank Gifford and television personality Kathie Lee Gifford. My first reaction was to wonder why the boat, Carnival Celebration, needs a godparent in the first place. If something unfortunate were to happen to its parent company, I doubt that Cassidy would be in a position to step in and ensure the boat's safety. |
