Incidentally…
Evidently, there may have been a bear. Matt has provided some possible proof. It also may have pierced the boat. This issue could not be solved with a paddle. That is, of course, unless it was an exactly paddle sized hole. But that chance is exactly one in a million…

Water always flows in a particular direction.
Something struck me last night about the phrase “up a creek without a paddle,” and strangely enough, one of my professors used it today in class.
The phrase is used as a euphemism for a situation that is less than satisfactory. In other words, you’re fucked. The context is established as negative. Therefore “up a creek” implies being at a location at which you would rather not be, and would therefore imply, logically speaking, that you would rather be down a creek.

There are (or were, anyway) commercials out right now with a guy and a girl at a mini-mart. The background music is something out of a western film. They both walk up to the counter with their respective baskets and pick up a box of Dentyne Fire Mints from the same display on the counter between them. Their hands touch.
