Sounds like we had the same swimming instructer! If I practiced 23 hours a day, I might LEARN to swim like a rock! I am buying a house with a pool, so I guess I should take the time to perfect my dead man's float....I need to prepare for my first mortgage payment, and who can swim while in cardiac arrest! The mortgage broker said he got a good interest rate... he did, for HIM! (I am sure I saw him at the Rolls Royce dealer looking at new models................)
