Idiot!

At least he would have done a great service tf he'd done that to this

You can always tell the Canadians. They are the ones swimming in
January when the water is at 65 degrees.

Heh, anything north of Cape Cod 65 degrees would be warm water.

Which one is the Florida girl? The one looking out for the
alligators...

PS, I took advantage of one of those high tides last week to get up
past your power lines. No problems, found both pairs of PVC pipes
right where they were supposed to be. Running through those S turns
in the mangroves is quite an adrenaline rush.
