Search is your friend if you haven’t been keeping up

Educate yourself if you have to know that badly

I’m not your nurse maid

Actually I read it was an extended family of 14 , 2 of which were killed in a drive-by shooting at a Frosty serve located near the bow section.
Feel bad for the kid though.

Sounds like you are from my generation. When I was 19, I was a Lance Corporal in the Marine Corps stationed out at 29 Palms in the middle of the desert. I'd already been out of the house for close to two years. On Father's Day, I'd line up by the pay phones at the PX to make a five minute call to my Dad. Next time I spoke to him, it was probably Christmas.

But these days, a 19 year old man is still considered to be a child and not only likely lives with his parents but is under their parental control as well. Yes, I know how strange it seems to us. Men well into their 20s are still considered children. I know this because my company covers dependent "children" on their medical plan up to the age of 26.

Anyway, it appears this particular 19 year old man did not want to be on that flimsy boat two and a half miles under the water with the rest of the dumb asses. He seems like he was a smarter man than his Dad and was gifted with more common sense. Pity he apparently did not have the backbone to tell his Dad "no way" regarding the boat. Should have wished his Dad "Happy Father's Day" and "Bon voyage."
