    Ohhh for a video of that and what I assume is his subsequent Houdini escape from his leash.

    No shit. After experiencing my first leash break in well overhead surf the other day, I am giving up on "comp" leashes for life.
    Putting the "core" in corporate, one turn at a time.

    Not that fun, esp. as my right calf cramped up right as my leash broke. "Sink or swim" never hit so close to home.

    Been there done that. Now my leash is replaced annually and is the fattest one I can find. Nothing like a solid double overhead + wave sending you to the bottom and after the spin cycle and resulting disorientation, being thankful for finding the only way up was your leash.
    Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.
