    My friend Anthony comes knocking on my door asking if I want to go swimming, so I say yes. We get down to the beach, and after a while, he says "Do you want to go see a little secret spot?" I say sure. So we walk down the shoreline alittle bit, which is full of rocks. After a while, he says "We're gonna have to swim across" so we swim across, I'm pacing my self, because I know were most likely going to swim back. Anthony races up ahead. Once we finally get there, Anthony stops to catch his breath. Anthony says we should head back, because he's a hypoglaucimic(sp?), which means if he doesn't eat, he pukes, or passes out, or both. :eek:! So we have to get back to shore. We find 2 vollyballs, and blow them up, for hope of trying to kick to shore. After several attemps, we just think we might as well swim to shore. So after 10 minutes, Anthony starts to have a panic attack. I keep telling him to stay calm, and I hold onto his foot while paddiling, while he's yelling to the boaters to give us a ride. Finally, after 20 minutes of this, someone picks him up, and I go home, and eat a big bowl of macaroni of cheese. Ok, I'm done now.

    I'm glad everything turned out OK but as Finger Blister stated, "a man's got to know his limitations." He should of known either to eat 1st or go their another day.

    People that live in glass houses should not throw poop. That stuff is nasty, and everyone can see, to. Clean up is a bitch.

    Wow...I'm glad he didn't drown,that woulda sucked...

    See,if I lived really close(walking distance) to an ocean or a big lake or something...I dun think I'd play bass/be on TB as much because I would probably fish the hours away:)

    *shrug*

    Man....the only "body" of "water" we're close to is a small crappy polluted pond like a mile away...and a crappy polluted stream with rats and stuff(rats in the woods near the stream...not the water:p )

    I live about 5 minutes away from the Gulf of Mexico. Many a good fishing spot with in 10-15 minutes drive here. I try to go a little bit every night, and day during the weekends.

    Nothing like the fight of a good sized fish fighting on your line.

    Ive got the same problem (hyperglycemia) as a side effect of the insulin I take to treat diabetes.

    Its a major bitch. I must have had it hit me 3-4 times today. He should go pick up some glucose tablets from his nearest drug store.

    I keep a bunch in a plastic bag and have 4 or so when I feel it get to me. Oh, and I think he would have been better off relaxing waiting to see if it would pass first before excercising and making it worse.

    Peace
