I've done that before and it worked out fine for me.

Forgot a friend at the dock once. Talk about feeling like chit. Her husband was the one that noticed she wasn't on board.

The last time I had a date with a hot blonde, the blue pill hadn't been invented yet and ED was still just my NAME!

My brother called me two years ago to take a ride on his new bass boat. We pushed off and floated for just a few minutes and started to check out the boat while on the water. He let me try it out first. Man did it feel heavy and slow. I tried to get it on plane but it would only plow down the river. When I gave up and she tried to level out I saw water coming out of the vent in the floor. Oh chit!! We ran it on the bank as quick as possible. Forgot the plug first time ever out on a brnad new boat. How stupid is that.
