Do fish pee in the water?
Yes. They poop and have sex also.
All in the water. Be scared, very scared.
I'm thinking about leglislation or something to that effect.

What about the CRABS!! :afraid:
ONE time I swam at the fittness center pool after the water aerobics class,..lots of over-weight women,..lots of old women. I saw what looked like a few big snowflakes suspended between the surface and the bottom,..it turned out to be a disintegrated Depends. I got out immediately and was covered with a slick of body lotion. :afraid:
:confused: I would have certainly tried! I've seen Ironman guys spot right on the side of the road on the run to do #2.
Oh, I tried, just couldn't pull it off during the race.

I can't imagine swimming nearly another 20 miles with a "Turtlehead" would be very comfortable! :D
A big part of why I stopped at the 9 mile mark of the Tampa Bay Swim a few years back was because I needed to relieve myself and couldn't do it while swimming or floating or treading water.
Oh, and I didn't have to pee.
It would have been difficult to practice that maneuver in the local pool!
