Oh not that this is completly relevant to what you just said in any way (sorry your life sounds pretty damn sweet ) but I remembered something else that the basket sent my way today.
Today I was at my rowing club as usual and the weather conditions were pretty bad, the wind was blowing pretty hard (bear in mind we row on the sea). Uusually when we take our boats down to the pier by the club we have to "backer" with our oars so that we get to the open water of the sea. Today though the wind was so strong that boats and oars were being sent flying in every direction, obviouslly not when we got in the water (my squad consisting of about 16 people). When in the water our boats were dragged quickly out to sea and I told my friend (I row on a double boat with another guy) that this outing would be a piece of cake with the wind helping us along, our trainer then told us we'd be going against the wind much to our dismay. Grudgingly we all turned around and got ready. I told my friend to row and the next thing i know I gust of wind hits the side of the boat our right arms tilt and so the oar gets dragged under water and we tip into the briny depths of the sea (which is usually full of traffic consisting of oil tankers, police speedboats and tugboats ) Much to our dimsay our wodws didn't reach our comrades ears because of the wind and so we were forced to swim back to the pier dragging the boat behind us 20 minutes later we start yelling profanities at the elements (we couldn't before 'cause we were too cold to string sentences together) and then we hit the showers. It was one hell of an experience which very rower thinks will not happen to them...boy was I wrong Edit-Oops, I have a tendency to waffle on about things...in a nutshell I fell in during one of my rowing sessions [ 03-10-2003, 05:07 PM: Message edited by: Sigmar ] |

Sig, that sounds like a lot of NO FUN AT ALL! Yikes! I'd never make it to the shore towing a boat in cold water! I'm glad YOU did, though! Does that happen very often?
