"Why do they think that they need to do stupid things like that?"
[cool][#0000ff]I have a philosopy that goes "Anytime you ask a question...beginning with the word WHY...and it has to do with people...there just ain't a good answer."[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Now, when you ask that question about a member of the power squadron there can be lots of answers:[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]1. No brains...no ability to reason.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]2. Brains left on the boat trailer.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]3. Gasoline and water...with a bit of alcohol...leads to an overload of testosterone and a decrease in common sense.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]4. The assumption that along with their boat license they have the license to antagonize everybody else around them...without consequences.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]5. Daddy ain't lookin'. They got the boat and the keys from daddy but he is too busy to show up and supervise what the kids are doing with it. And since he is also a PS member he probably doesn't really care. He may have actually trained them. Some diseases are genetic and are passed on from generation to generation.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I could fill books with stories I have "lived" or heard firsthand from fellow anglers about the harebrained stunts some of these idiots perform. The only good thing is that they are pretty good about "thinning the herd". They either kill themselves or fellow "PSMs" (power squadron members). Unfortunately...just as with automobiles...the PSMs also take out a lot of innocent folks who are obeying all the rules and just trying to have a good time. Too bad they choose to try to share their water with the bad guys.[/#0000ff]
