Local TV did a news report about the new pool drain cover law. I happened to be in the YMCA pool at the time and so got on the news. They were looking for someone with a God-like physique and blinding speed, but they got me instead. Unfortunately, I was just doing a slow-ish (about 46-47 sec/50 yards) straight 2000 yard recovery swim, so nothing exciting. Still, I had never seen myself swim before - weird... The bottom of the pool was FILTHY yesterday - I've never seen it so dirty. In all cases, I am the closest/only swimmer. www.wgal.com/.../ -LBJ

    And this is why I should continue to read this board. This is a possibility that had never occurred to me. I need to try this ruse, but I must first ask: as the drains at my Y pool are flat and circular and therefore legal, will the attractive lifeguard save me if I get sucked into one of them? If you truly aspire to social leprosy, keep reading this board because people such as myself and Jim Thornton and a few others can act as expert guides. We can also probably recommend some good bail-bondsmen as well. As to your question: Probably the first time or two, said comely lifeguard will definately come to your aid. If she has half a brain or more, on about the third time she'll let you drown. Also remember that word spreads quickly among the lifeguards, so be sure to try this with your favorite lifeguard FIRST. -LBJ
