HITTING BOTTOM ISN'T A WEEKEND RETREAT! IT'S NOT A SEMINAR! ONLY AFTER YOU'VE LOST EVERYTHING ARE YOU FREE TO DO ANYTHING! YOU SEE, YOU LISTEN, BUT YOU DON'T GET IT! YOU HAVE TO FORGET EVERYTHING YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING YOU THINK YOU KNOW!

Well... not really, unless you don't consider it dead until someone finishes reading Galt's post, in which case yes, you'd be on the second page before it's dead, but I like to think of it more as there are no living or life-giving posts on the second page. :-( Thank you, come again.
I always wondered how people drown. Does anyone here really not know how to swim? What's it like?
What about being stranded on the ocean, that would be a long painful death. Do you think the hunger pains would keep you awake? Or maybe the hallucinations would be fun?

Two kids I went to high school with drown when their Boston Whaler flipped over one night on a trip from Martha's Vineyard to the mainland.
The girl who was with them and survived (they gave her a seat cushion that gave her a little boyancy) said that they just got tired and went under after about 7 hours. No big struggle, just exhausted and went under.
The boat was still floating after it capsized. They were stupid and drunk, and only a few miles off shore, so they figured they'd just swim home instead of waiting in the ocean overnight for someone to pick them up.
The girl got picked up, one of the kids actually made it to shore, but it was three days later, he'd gained 100 pounds, and fish had been eating him. But for a dead guy, he was impressively spry enough to make it to shore after three days.
