Can't beat this..they want me to go out on a jet ski in the middle of the Graveyard of the Pacific and pretend to drown so they could surf rescue me..I said can I wear a life jacket..maybe...they need volunteers so the rescue people can get certified but I think I might pass...mg

Mary, it doesn't sound like they have your best interests at heart! Who made this request?

Where exactly is this Graveyard of the Pacific? And how did it get the name?

Last I checked the Pacific is off the West Coast... They need any other fake drowners and they payin' expenses??? I mean, maybe I could get a free flight to see my son in Oregon, fake drown and stop in California for a bag of weed...

A twinkle in the eye is becoming, Joe!

Mary, did your boss offer time and a half plus hazardous duty pay (in the Forest Service when fighting fires that is another 1/4 pay) - basically, almost double pay, and for the entire time, not just when you're in the water. In other words, is it worth your time?

Did you ever consider you were the only offer she'd had in awhile? Or did she regret taking the offer?   Or......   uh, well that's enough. I'm in deep shit huh? Sorry Joe.....just jokes.....................although I would have thought your wife would have waited for a better offer...........ahgawdamn.....I can't stop...................Stop me before I ask if she was disappointed in how "little" you had to offer................................sweetjesus, I need help...............................

I believe your boss is telling you it's time to change jobs.

She offered her honor
He honored the offer
And all night long
It was on'er and off'er.

"pickled watermelon rind"... I thought, how does Spaw come up with such inane shit? But, I Googled it and thought, "Fuck me!"

And, no, that's not an offer.

If you change your mind and go through with it, I will look forward to reading about the experience! As for me, I would definitely pass, life jacket or no!

Pickled watermelon rind is very good, but it helps if it isn't quite that old. . .

Mary, have you made a decision? Did you politely decline?

Change my mind? Not likely. Although, it probably would just tickle a bit, given that Spaw's actual handle is Needle Dick The Bug Fucker. IF and when (seldom) he can get it up.

I hope yer okay with that, Spaw. I mean, it's not really a secret now, is it?

Mary, a long time ago I acted as a barbers test-rig, but what they are offering you seems a little more... -extreme!
