Don't forget the wheel chocks.....
« on: October 06, 2009, 07:23:46 AM »
sent in to me by the ever-alert-for-breaking- news Tombinator.

From listening to his recount I think chocks wouldn't have helped this poor guy... he musta thought "R" was for "retrieve boat." He jacknifed the trailer and the whole nine down AH way last Sundee bout 4. At least the boat was still in the water at the time.

Then I think he met Mr. DUI ...
