Just thought I would start a thread which didn't have deep philosophical overtones so that we all can have fun with the new forum software. Based upon personal experience, I will start a list of “You know you are a swimmer when …” with the following:
You know you are a swimmer when you leave work in the rain and you can smell the chlorine coming off of your hair.
Anyone care to add to the list?

Hey Gunner,
You know you're in the Navy when...
The Base Athletic Championships includes such sports (all highly related to general fitness and/or critical professional skills) as golf, bowling, darts and (I kid you not) mixed-doubles billiards. Meanwhile, the swimmers cannot convince the powers that be to add a swim meet to the list because it costs too much money. (?)
Don't mind my grousing. Welcome to the Jungle (aka the USMS Forums); grab a vine and swing on in.
