Oouch!!!! Peoples thought processes never cease to amaze me. I'm out in the fog, so I decide to blast through it a 30-40 mph. I guess there is no thought going on. Only way you could do something so stupid.

We often hang out at the bar there, and have had several meetings in the conference rooms that are just to the south of the doors he went into. It's 15 minutes from where I work here in Ruskin. 10 yards to the North and he would have taken out the tiki bar and everyone sitting there after smashing into the rocks, instead of the sand. Got the back story on the boat owner and the captain (two different people) from the local guys. Perhaps a classic case of lots of money and too little sense. Not going to end well for them.

Good news is the restaurant and bar are doing record business. They put up a photo display in the lobby detailing the whole incident.
