Maybe they calculated out far OUT the bike had to go, but forgot that it also went UP at the same time.

Unless you leave the blast doors open so that the pizza guy can get in

Part of me wants to buy up a few of those notebooks that are made for keeping login info in and sending them to people/companies I would want to rob. Then you simply break in and have full access to their bank accounts. Be sure to include a section for security question answers and SSN...

The shot of the side of the boat where the propeller chewed it up is pretty nasty. Fisherman caught on video jumping into water to avoid death sues boat driver quote:Clatsop County sheriff’s deputies accused boat driver Marlin Lee Larsen of several crimes after the 75-year-old told investigators he couldn’t see where he was driving because he was sitting down and the dash of his boat was blocking his view. Larsen said he probably should have been standing, according to the sheriff’s report, which notes Larsen uses a motorized scooter to get around on land. He's also being tried for reckless operation of a boat, fourth-degree assault and recklessly endangering the lives of others, which are apparently only misdemeanors.

quote:Larsen, a Roseburg resident, told The Oregonian/OregonLive by phone Friday that he wasn’t using his cellphone while driving his Bayliner and referred to such allegations as “fake news.” Larsen also said a lawsuit seemed unnecessary because the people in the Weldcraft weren’t hurt badly.  why did you chop that part?!

One just has to assume that the other boaters have all read the How to Avoid Large Ships book, and that also you have the largest ship around.

Yeah I should have left that in. Someone correct me on this, but in my limited understanding of the US legal system, misdemeanors are lesser crimes than felonies, right? So if this guy is being charged with misdemeanors, does that mean he has a lesser chance of being sent to jail/being levied serious fines?

So if this guy is being charged with misdemeanors, does that mean he has a lesser chance of being sent to jail/being levied serious fines? Yes. Misdemeanors are usually things like vandalism, public drunkenness, shoplifting, possession of a couple of joints, and so on. A first offender charged with a misdemeanor would probably just have to pay a fine and do some community service. Serious crimes, violent crimes, or repeated offenses put you into felony territory, where you generally go to prison. Of course in the US justice system this is also highly dependent on the state and on politically-motivated activist laws. There have been some famous cases where people who had committed a few very minor crimes (e.g. a homeless man repeatedly charged with vagrancy and drunkenness) got sent to prison for decades because they stole a can of coke while having a swiss army knife in their pocket, making it armed robbery with a history of repeated offenses, etc. Sagebrush fucked around with this message at 01:32 on Jan 18, 2018 |

Memento posted:Yeah I should have left that in. Misdemeanors are a lesser level of crime than a felony but can still carry up to a year in jail or 3 years of probation, prosecutors tend to have more flexibility in charges, restitution, and plea bargains. Additionally a plea of guilty or no contest does not necessarily mean that the guy is off the hook from civil claims depending on the state.

Something like a rowboat is basically free to maintain after you buy it. Anything with a motor is when they can start to drain your wallet, or anything you leave in the water instead of taking out when you're done. Sailboats are expensive too for anything larger than a Hobie.

If it's small enough that when it breaks you can haul it out and put it in your backyard, well, maybe it'll rot there but at least it won't keep costing your money. A small aluminum rowboat is nearly indestructible, basically free, and can accept a small outboard motor if you want to dip your toes  into that field.

This boat chat is stupid, they are exactly like cars, if you maintain them, they last a very long time. Use it twice a year, it will poo poo the bed. A boat cost about the same as a mid-range sports car, and has about the same maintenance fees and schedule.

Hmm yes let's just jaunt down to Supermarket Island after we pick up the kids at Daycare Key because the ice caps have melted and owning a 29' cruiser with a ~JUICY~ tramp stamp on the stern is no longer conspicuous consumption.
