So, I honeymooned with my new wife last week at South Padre Island, tx, and had a great time. On Thursday afternoon, we had an awesome tandem parasailing ride with "Sonny's Beach Services." Well, we got back home and then read in the news that on Saturday, a woman fell to her death while parasailing with Sonny's Beach Services :eek:

Poor woman. I'm glad it wasn't my wife, tho. Since I read about this, I've had a weird unsettled feeling.

I guess it should make me value my time on earth more... maybe I should get of ATOT :hmm:

Went parasailing and skydiving in Hawaii years back. Somehow, I felt more comfortable, safer, and at ease during skydiving then during parasailing. Go figure.

Happens to also be what I say when someone tries to merge directly into me.
