Water sports questions

[ycartrob]

One morning, over at Elizabeth's beach house, she asked me if I'd rather go water-skiing or lay out. And I realized that not only did I not want to answer THAT question, but I never wanted to answer another water-sports question, or see any of these people again for the rest of my life.

Watersports is indeed a tricky etiquette matter.  Who should raise the subject first?  Lady or gentleman?



Hang on.  I may have got the wrong end of the stick.

[Angry Ewok]

Water sports are for pussies.

[mjkoehler]

I generally try to avoid the subject all together. I like my pasty ass skin tone. Anytime I try to go shirtless or tank top in the summer, NASA calls me and tells me to cease and desist and put a shirt on as the reflection off of me is blinding the Hubble and other satellites.

Hell yeah, a fellow Pisces! That means you have a birthday coming up...

I'm about as white as they come, my hands are practically translucent in cold weather, but I love the water. There's a very specific, intense type of relaxation that sets in after jumping in a cold river/lake/ocean, and then jumping out to bake on a hot beach or rock. And come summer time, there are few places I'd rather be than fishing on the Pitt River.

Oh come on!! How can you people be so pompous about dissing watersports?!?  Water-skiing rules, as does water-fishing, water-gun-fights and water-drinkingbeer.  I'll take a recreation on a body of water over pretty much anything else ever.

I've got to say, tubing down a river with a group of friends and a few cases of domestic beer is about as good a time as I could ask for.

I'm a good waterskier and swimmer, but I don't find either activity fun, although both are good sources of excercise. What's the difference between "water-fishing" and plain old fishing, unless the landshark legends are true afterall?

water-drinkingbeer.  

I will take on anyone and everyone in this sport.  Bring it.

There's no difference really.  I just had to use the water prefix to stay with the theme of water sports.

You're on! ;D  Very common in my home state, u can usually find a lot of skinny old white men with some daisy duke jean shorts on slammin budweisers like it's a second full time job. :-?

Loves me some wakeboarding, floating a river, and peeing in the water :-/

or see any of these people again for the rest of my life.

;D

I like some frozen water sports more than the thawed kind.

I have a birthday coming up my new found friend.......that would be March 3 for the BIG 5-0! Taking an eight night Eastern Caribbean cruise to celebrate the fact that I have actually made it to half of a century.

Well, I can't think of a better way to celebrate 50! I'm on March 15th (The Ides), and I'm actually turning 30 this year.
