Ahoy, mateys! The Starliner ship o' Boeing be back on dry land, but lo! Two scallywags be marooned, for NASA be frettin' it be too perilous to haul 'em aboard! A right jolly pickle, I say! Anchors aweigh, but not for those poor souls! Har har!

Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn of Boeing's Starliner, that fine flying contraption, which finally touched the good ol' Earth again on the morn of Saturday, landing safe 'n sound in New Mexico's sandy realms after a jaunt with the space station! But alas, not all seafarers returned! Two brave souls, Butch and Suni, be left a-danglin' in the stars, awaitin' a ride home due to the scallywags at NASA deeming their return too perilous. They be waitin’ till February to set sail back! Aye, this be not the first tempest for Starliner, as it faced thruster troubles and leaks like a leaky ship during its voyage!

Arrr!
