I had a vigorous day doing all my errands after the
gym. Perhaps not enough vigor because I
woke before midnight, woke at oneish and woke again at 0430.
Sirens and more sirens were what woke us both at 0430
as they passed by below us on Nimitz Boulevard.
I kept rotating the news stations this morning until I found out why
such a fuss.
Two fools jumped off the pier. It’s a long pier, the longest on the west
coast. One of these young drunken fools
couldn’t swim. After he jumped, he tried
to hold on to a rope he tied to the rail of the pier. I tried to find a recent photo of the pier to
show you, but I obviously haven’t been to the beach.
I’ll do that today.
Were they able to save him? You said, "tried to hold on". This doesn't sound good.
ReplyDeleteAgain, your header photo is magnificent!
Also, I have some pics of the pier -- am going to look. :)
ReplyDeleteThe Borscht Belt you mention is the are in New York..right? You don't have one there in southern Cal, I am supposing.
ReplyDeleteScary, hope they didn't drown.
ReplyDeleteThey made it, http://www.cbs8.com/story/25376969/two-rescued-after-jumping-from-ob-pier fools indeed.
ReplyDeleteWhat a couple of idiots! Sorry the noise of it all woke you in the middle of the night. Dinner or breakfast soon. Mia is getting anxious to see you.
ReplyDeleteYou and the Borsht resorts. I canT even spell it, but mom used to cook it. I think it involves beets.
ReplyDeleteWhere where did I indicate you were inebriated? Beets all I mentioned was beets. Hope your piece work. Yes, I appreciate comedy. David and I quote comics every day. Keeps us ticking even tho we take ourselves very seriously!
ReplyDeleteWere the jumpers OK? Good grief!
