For a change I didn't get hurt and my brother is all wet anyhow. I'm also glad that it was me and not some little kid or someone that couldn't swim. The patrol boat just happened to come along. They have been having a lot of trouble with drunk boaters this summer so they patrol pretty heavily.
The police called me today wanting to know if I wanted to press charges. They caught the guy and gave him a ticket for $500. They said it was his first offence. I thought that was punishment enough for a first offence. If there had been an injury that would have been different.

gaykir - I can imagine a knee replacement is fun with PD. I had to have a knee worked on a couple of years ago where I fell and did some damage. That was bad enough.

jo55 - I wear my life vest at all times when on the boat because I know my balance is bad. You never know when your going for a trip.

indigogo - Yes I was dx'ed in 1999 at 41. Mornings seem to be my rough time. Towards noon or so I start to loosen up and move halfway decent until around 9pm - 10pm. Then I'm usually exhausted from all the things I try to get done while I can. That doesn't necessarily mean sleep comes easy though.

See ya in the funny papers,
