Afraid of Drowning? Swim with legs and arms tied—and in a bag!!

This sounds like a recipe for drowning to me, but this guy has developed a technique for swiming even when his arms and legs are tied -- and put in a bag.

Please don't try this at home.

Dear Grandma Patty,

BTW, when you put someone in a sack and throw him in the water aren't there supposed to be a snake and a fox with him?

Women are like a pot of soup on the stove: if you don't stir them up once in a while they just don't turn out any good.

The penalty for patricide in Rome was to be tied up in a bag with a dog, a cat and a rooster, then thrown in the Tiber. After a couple of minutes, drowning is the easy way out.
