Have you ever been sitting in your car at a stop light when a deep deep base sounding boom boom began tickling at your ear holes? Then it continues to become louder and louder, so loud that it interferes with any thought process you might have running at the time and turning the up-curled sides of your lips to droop almost to your chin. As your mirror and some parts on your dash begin to vibrate a small car passes in front of you with all it's windows down, enabling you to determine the cause.

It's caused by some young person not wanting to face reality and to avoid such they spend what they can get their hands on buying speakers for their car. They then turn the thing up as loud as it will go to where they, nor anyone close, can possibly think. La la, without conscience thought there can be no reality.

Now if you can imagine sitting in a room with about forty of those cars down in front of you, all tuned to the same blasting sound and turned up to the max you might understand why some of this lake living isn't so good especially on a holiday weekend.

Those happy time boat riders and their un-muffled engines makes so much noise that it seeps into the house right through the walls and windows. Even as loud as all they are we can still hear above it, the whap as our wave lifted dock slams back down from it's air ride.

Those kind of things seem to tighten me up all over. Among other things, my toes curl and I become constipated for a couple days.

Today all that is going to slow down but memories will linger, do I sound full of crap to you?
