Fool Proof way to dispose of old flares!!
 
Hey, here it is.

We were just discussing how to get rid of old, outdated flares and this
enterprising boater seems to have discovered a sure-fire way to get the
USCG to accept all the flares he has onboard:

COAST GUARD DETAINS ERRATIC MAN WAVING FLARES, FOUND NAKED

SEATTLE - A man was taken into custody after he was found naked and
acting erratic by a Coast Guard helicopter crew this afternoon near
Sequim Bay, Wash.


An HH-65 Dolphin helicopter from Coast Guard Group/Air Station Port
Angeles, Wash., was flying over Sequim Bay at 2:32 p.m., when they saw
a possible boat fire.

The helicopter circled back to the vessel to investigate and found a
man on the bow of a boat waving distress flares while acting
erratically and making obscene gestures.

A Coast Guard 25-foot response boat was launched from Station Port
Angeles to investigate.

The crew of the Coast Guard boat found the man naked and screaming
obscenities while hitting his head on the deck of the boat.

The Coast Guard instructed the man to dress and then he was detained
aboard the Coast Guard boat. The man was taken to John Wayne Marina in
Sequim, Wash., where he was turned over to the Sequim Police for
further transport to Olympic Memorial Hospital for further evaluation.

The incident is currently under investigation by the Sequim Police.
The vessel is being towed in to John Wayne Marina by the Coast Guard.

The man is acting normallly, if a little inflexibly, considering the
stupidity of some laws and his moral duty to comply.

He should be made an icon for those who heroically survive the human
dilemma of supressing the normal biological urge to kill every other
male, mate with every female, and to respect the rights of others as
we desire for ourselves for even a short time. It seems loose morals
may relieve stress. Those with the higest moral standards must
endure the most stress the longest, clean living being what it may
be. Justice? Is it any wonder some snap, go postal? Better nudity!

One way to use flares up with minimal risk is to shoot them into a
culvert with rocks piled over one end. The military has a system of
amnesty boxes, into which found ammunition may be voluntarily
depositied for disposal, for safety. Have we no such arrangement at
the police department firing ranges?

Why not haloween or at fireworks displays? -Because, when they come
down, they still burn, some with phosphorus. They must not land
where fire is a danger.
