Part Deux

FYI-This is a continuation of the previous post. Blah, blah, blah, I'm at the beach with the kids and someone is apparently drowning...

Not sure what was going on, I took a healthy swig from my binoculars and looked again. He was clearly being swept off by a rip tide and drowning. I look to the posted sign for guidance...

Don't ask about the Farsi writing on the sign. Long story. However, the sign clearly states that, "Drowning accidents are now popular". There is also a picture of a man drowning with a slash through it. He is obviously engaging in illegal activity for the sole purpose of being popular. Well, I won't be a part of this!

I don't want the kids to think that this is acceptable behavior. It's time to pack up and get out of here before the cops come and see that I'm drunk at the beach with my kids. I look at the long trek to the car. It's sooo far! Normally I would require a sack lunch and at least one sherpa to do this. No time to hem and haw now. Time to get outta here! I've never seen those kids pack up so fast. We were in the car and on the road in minutes.

I'm not sure what ever became of Steve, but at least there is a happy ending to this story. I got home safely and third strike free!
