sink me!
i don't how i got obsessed with it -- it just happened. i've been studying everything about the Titanic. books, movies, photos, blueprints, the internet.
i've looked up nearly every survivor. on the passenger list is listed "the unsinkable Molly Brown" who married a guy and they struck it rich. Molly Brown left her husband and went to Paris. i think. later she got on the Titanic to go home back to him. Molly Brown survived by getting into the 16th life boat. she threatened to throw the only man off of the life boat because he wouldn't let the women row.
Mr. and Mrs. John Jacob Aster were going from Egypt to Paris, and later to the Titanic. Mrs. Aster was pregnant. She was Mr. Aster's second wife, the second Mrs. Aster (her husband was divorced to the first Mrs. Aster). She got into the lifeboat by putting a deck chair over the A-Promenade window. then she slid into the lifeboat because she was five months pregnant. when Mr. Aster sank with the Titanic he left his pregnant wife and son. i don't know if he had other kids. his son came out of the white star line office and hid his tears by covering his face with his hands.
maybe this is the view Molly Brown and Mrs. Aster saw from their life boats.
