No shotgun aboard? They usually ski away fast when I come up from below
with the big Browning....(c;

I used to ski in a pack with others who love them. I still love them,
but realize I'm not gettin' any younger. We never wake jumped anyone's
boat without calling them on the radio to ask if it was OK. Our favorite
was tugboats in a hurry to get upriver, which creates a huge wake trying
to plane their displacement hulls. They monitor channel 10...(c; "Try
not to scratch the new paint.", one tugboat captain told me. He added
throttle to make the wave bigger. The trick is to jump off the bow wave
and try to land over the top of the next wave aft....without flipping
over or nosing in, of course....(c;

They know nothing of right-of-way.....another reason I call for mandatory
testing and licensing the hermits resist. If I can take his license, I
can take his life! The easy way would be to simply take his driver's
license from him. Of course, that would require real enforcement, not
just some flak-jacketed cowboys stopping everyone for no reason to check
their fire extinguishers...illegal search and seizure. They go for the
easy targets.

Wanna see 'em run? When they flip you the finger, give 'em a big smile
and shake your head up and down in a big YES! Now convinced you are a
flaming fag, they'll run for the horizon! Works great in the car,
too....(c;

You complain about boardings being illegal search and siezure, while
advocating turning a RIGHT into a privilege?
