doubleheader Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 I thought of this topic reading the post about the boater who drowned on Lake Ontario, but I just didn't want to insert humor into that very sad story so here I am poking some fun at my senior self and hoping to make you smile. I've had a pee jug (modified plastic milk bottle) on my boat for years, in fact the same one has been on the last 3 boats I've owned,..........up until recently. I was out with my son in law on a recent morning and it seemed like I had to go about every 10 minutes, The weird thing was, I wasn't emptying much from the container. As a senior this isn't unusual, but this was somewhat unusual even for a senior. (huh) After about 4 whizzes I noticed the top of my tackle bag was wet. This caused me to inspect the rest of the boat at which time I realized my trusty jug had sprung a leak and I was peeing all over my boat. Even the top of my one shoe. Of course I'm muttering all this to myself when the son-in-law realizes what's going on. As if to brag he whips it out and commences to pee, knocking a turtle off a shore rock 20 feet away. I thought to myself, "holy chimole", but quickly regained some self respect by uttering "try that when you're my age". Anyway, once home I immediately initiated a search for the ultimate pee jug. Handle- check, sufficient capacity- check, sufficient entry area- check, no sharp edges- check, I had quite a list.......... off to the refrigerator I go!! Eureka, there it was, a quart size plastic OJ container, almost empty, sitting on the frig inner door. After a quick modification a christening was in order and she passed with flying colors. So, the new jug is my one and only boat upgrade for 2015. I hope she gives me years of trouble free service and that I live long enough to hear my son in law say, "Where's that pee jug?".

Rich Clemens Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 The real senior moment is when said Orange jug is used and is placed back into the refridgerator. Now that would be funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spincast Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Now that is funny, love the turtle scene - and brings back some memories of learning about boats (as opposed to canoes) - had a similar situation myself in my first boat- lesson learned - Tim Horton's coffee cans are a 1 season solution I now subscribe the recycle mantra, using an old 4 litre oil jug.

Blue Lk Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Funny story,my GF the nurse suggested I get a RX for the little blue pill,she said I should take enough to stop peeing on the floor & my shoes. She caught me heading out the door to do some yard work last weekend wearing a white sneaker on 1 foot & a grey 1 on the other foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bacon Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Try squatting on the toilet at home. It is truly amazing and your wife will love you for it. Been doing it for years. Love you leaving less of a mess in the bathroom; or, for 'enhanced performance' in the bedroom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
