I think I am more scared of crappy weather and not having a 3rd keeping me from riding as much as I should this summer. Twisted Evil

LOL, I've always been afraid to be in the water when a boat is around, ya never know if you're driver is hung over and forgets to put it in neutral (sp)!!! Confused

I think the driver... Sometimes my friends are more concerned about what all is going on in the boat than if the rider has fallen or where they are.

I'd have to say I'm more scared of getting my head/arm caught in the tow handle. I know it's probably irrational, but I have this fear of getting the line caught around my neck and getting hung. Strange, I know.

Although, last year I did get my arm throught he handle accidently trying to pull a hs bs 360. I don't know what happened, but my arm bent the wrong way, and when the slack came out, IT HURT. Bad. I couldn't raise my arm above my head without pain until Christmas.

Brad, obviously I didn't mean you, it's your boat, You aren't stupid enough to run someone over!! Razz

i'm worried about getting sars, i'm going to canada in may. i wouldn't worry about getting run over by the driver, because i don't think the boat will be in the water until june

Honestly, people totally blow this SARS sh*t out of proportion, and it's starting to piss me off. The chances of you getting it from walking around Toronto are sooo slim. Even if you do happen to get it, you'll be sick for a week and then you'll be fine. It's really only the young or the eldery that have anything to actually FEAR from Sars.

Out of the two diseases I'd be most worried about getting West Nile. I'm not really worried about getting run over 'cause I don't know how much riding I'll do this summer.

Maestro - its pretty much the same thing with West Nile. The ederly and the young really have to worry. As long as you're immune system is health you are ok.

Maestro · Posted: Apr 25, 2003 1:57 pm Post subject:

Yea Seth, I'm not really worried about getting it. I'm going to working where there are quite a few mosquitos though, and I was just saying out of those two I'd be more worried about getting West Nile.

I am not afraid of anything but the FWC (florida wildlife control). In my area they pick the dumbest people in the county, give them a badge and a boat, then tell them to go hassle people.

What are you more afraid of this summer: SARS or Aubs gettign her license?

Probably West Nile since we have a ton of mosquitoes here.

I'm afraid I can't answer this question.
