I don't ever want to see this in person

Good job Rick.   I had 3 different people show me this video this morning.  I was getting on to post it when I see you did.    I would have had a " Brown "  rain suit after that.

At your age, you may have that on any other day as well.

WHOA!!! I'm glad I've been slightly smarter for the past 10 or 15 years... most of the time, not all... to get off the water or try to figure out somewhere to take cover that 'might' work.

Plus, I don't want the wrath of YpsiBass either!! (sounds like the next Star Trek movie...)

" Depends "   Remember that word.  You may have to change mine one day in the boat....

That video is why I know where every bridge to hide under is on bad weather days.

I thought that is what Bob Dole said when the reporter asked him, "Boxers, or briefs?"

I'm finding out that everyone who makes it past 5 decades and beyond gets to find out just 'how funny' all those jokes are. Can someone get this line through that hook eye for me...??

I'm also wondering...? Do bridges really provide protection? I've had some people who seem smart say no...??
