Bare-Naked Boating Stops Traffic

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Boaters in the buff are literally stopping traffic near Interstate 77 in North Carolina. Naked and bathing suit-clad boaters at Lake Norman have recently been flashing drivers and causing major gaper delays — at times even bringing traffic to a standstill and causing crashes, according to The Charlotte, N.C., Observer. The baring-it-all boaters at the causeway running between Iredell and Mecklenburg counties have brought in dozens of complaints to the Lake Norman Marine Commission, the paper reported last week. "They get right up to that riprap, and they take their clothes off," the Observer quoted Iredell County sheriff's Deputy Phil Jones as telling the commission. A smattering of complaints about the flashers has also come in, he said. But cops have to catch flashers in the act of, well, flashing in order to arrest them. The nude boaters are often long gone by the time officers can get to the scene, Jones told the Observer. Marine Commissioner Mark Lancaster of Iredell County saw the nudists himself, the newspaper reported. Lancaster was near the Lake Norman/Interstate 77 causeway when he witnessed the jaw-dropping shenanigan himself. After he heard trucks honking and saw traffic stopping, he noticed three bare-naked ladies in a boat near the area in question, he told the Observer. But marine commissioners and police said the nudity wasn't all that was bringing cars to a honking, screeching halt. Gaper delays have happened along that stretch of highway for any number of reasons. "I've seen traffic jams looking at the sunset," the Observer quoted Marine Commission Chairman Randy Reece as saying.

I love the sunsets I've seen driving over Lake Norman through the years. Just sign of the times, I suppose. Glad I am not going north anytime soon.

The latest thing in the porn shops these days are mivies like "Girls gone Wild" showing all kinds of sexual behavior by people doing all kinds of sex acts at Spring Break ,Daytona, Sturgis , in Cancun. and other places. Movies taken of folks like Paris Hilton doing Porn, Tonya Harding and Pam Anderson. Sex at Mardi Gras in New Orleans.These movies can be rented or bought at any adult book store. Women have lost all sense of decency, I mean we expect men to act like this , but Women? Any woman who would allow her boyfriend to take pictures of their sex act needs her head examined. But its happening and with moe frequency.

If they got pics, it must be true.

SPACE ALIEN DISGUISED AS JAY LENO SEDUCED ME!

A Love Betrayed!
A pretty supermarket cashier was left emotionally devastated by a close encounter of the heartbreaking kind: She was seduced and abandoned by a smooth-talking alien who looked just like late-night TV comic Jay Leno!

"I knew he wasn't the real thing, the moment he kissed me," says Claudia Sandersky, 25, of Los Angeles. "Jay's happily married. And when this creep just dumped me in the street and drove off, all my suspicions were confirmed -- Jay could never treat a girl like that.

"...we expect men to act like this..."

Teenagers and frat boys act like this, but MEN are supposed to have grown out of it.

""The Observer" - what a predictable name for a newspaper "covering" this sort of thing."

Around here - it's known as "The Charlotte Disturber"...liberal rag...

Okay. Now you've reminded me of an old joke. An elderly man, told by his doctor that he has a rare disease decides to follow his prescription for a possible cure only part of the way. Doc says he needs FULL exposure to the sun and an even tan. The old fellow is shy and can only bring himself to do it in bits and pieces. When it comes to tanning his penis and scrotum, he just can't bring himself to exposing himself that much. The doctor sends him out of his office with orders not to return until the job is done.

Finally, the old guy hits upon an idea-- he'll go to the beach and bury himself in sand except for the remaining private parts which need to get tanned. As he is enjoying his privacy under the sand, an old lady comes walking along the beach, spots the unusual mushrooms, and exclaims "Good heavens! When I was a young lady, those things were hard to find! But now, they're growing wild!"

I don't understand why people would stop on the Interstate to see someone naked. Haven't they ever seen a naked person before? Go to the library and check out an art book, and get over it!

I have two boys in diapers ... I'd pay NOT to see naked rears!

I had a buddy years ago (now dead, tragically) who was built like a defensive lineman...he was too damn large to "single ski", so he used doubles.

He loved to 'skinny ski' - get nekkid, hauled out of the water onto his skis and directing the boat driver into the vicinity of others. He'd swoosh by and do an aqua version of a Queen Elizabeth curtsy for them.

He got a lot of applause....and on the second pass, a lot of offers for free beer.
