I did try it you decrepit piece of lying flotsam... and I assure you I could
lift your emaciated little frame and twist it into a friggin' pretzel....
and I can't pull myself up to my boat at 5 knots. I've swam since I was 11
months old and scuba dive as well as free dive. I'm in twice the shape you
are and even smoking a cigarette, a blunt and drinking a beer I could out
run and out swim you. I'll tell you right now you are bull****ting. Not only
can't you do it... but you're shooting off your yap about something you have
no experience with.... could never accomplish and have never tried. So until
you know something about the subject.. do me a friggin' favour and shut your
maw. You're spewing crap again....
