Small craft advisories were up as they departed port to anchor and fish 60
miles out into the Gulf of Mexico. They anchored in 10-ft seas to fish. Wave
swanps and capsizes boat. Four men not wearing life jackets go by the
boards. One survives by hanging onto the overturned boat for two days in
seas of up to 15-feet. The others drift off in water temps of 65 degrees
winds up to 30 knots.

How many millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars were wasted searching for the
four morons?

Well, nobody ever accused professional football players of having brains.

It would be NICE if Wilbur, could actually READ, the printed accounts....
as he would have NOTICED, that ALL HAD Life-preservers ON, while in the
water. One took his off and swam toward a light on the horizon, and two
took theirs off and just swam away from the boat..... This from the one
rescued person.... Of course nobody ever accused Wilbur of having
Brains...
