How to save a life.
Jessica and Nick (our neighbor) have been taking a lifeguard training class. It has been quite informative for me. Did you know its a federal law that only a 16 year old is qualified to push the button at the water park. A FEDERAL LAW. Wow that serious business. I guess Jess will be qualified in almost 6 months for this most serious task. I also learned that as a lifeguard when you are "saving a life" or a drowning victim you can ask him for a little help. For example Jessica was practicing bringing in the drowning victim (Nick). He is really heavy all 140 lbs and she asked him "Can you just kick? This is really hard." So I am thinking to my self" Can you do that?" "Maybe there are stages of drowning like in princess bride you know Mostly Dead. Apparently Jess is only planning on saving the Mostly drowning victim as opposed to the All Drowning victim. Anyways she is still ahead of her dear old mom who when took the same class didn't make it through the treading water with the 10lb brick. I think it went something like this. Hold this brick and tread water for 5 min. I made it 30 seconds. then I went under and all that was left was a mostly drowning victim.
