That was you? I won't have to till the flower beds this spring. Thanks!

You even aerated the lawn for me. How thoughtful.

Lost the wifi. Found it hiding under the couch and had to lure it out with some canned tuna fish.

Last summer there was this captain in Finland, he was in charge of some steamer or something. He ran aground the first time near our summer cottage, he had gone off the course (which is pretty darn hard over there!). Two weeks later, he wrecked his ship for the second time, again going off course.

Don't remember the details about it, but just remember it was funny as heck to learn about it. Especially the first accident, the route really is just "Follow the water" with red and green boyus showing the center line.

This is the woman who said it was like Titanic -

Rosalyn Rincon, a dancer/magician's assistant onboard.

Edit: She's not the only dancer, nor the only one to comment on Titanic.

It was cargo ship which (if I remember correctly) had cargo of logs or something similar. After second trouble ship lost its permission to operate without pilot. Shipping company must be very pleased.

EDIT: Also if my memory doesn't completely fail the grouding locations were separated by just few kilometres.
