#2 Well - at least the guy's taking the trouble to help. Paddling past a sea of raw sewage in 90+ degree temperatures probably isn't anyone's idea of a good time. This is in fact a hardship assignment. Still, I think he'd be better off just donating cash, except the guy's been too involved in arthouse movies to have made much. I expect him to shoot a bit of film, during which he will spend a fair amount of time trashing GWB.

#3 Well - at least the guy's taking the trouble to help.

sounds like a personal publicity tour. Spare the photog, any non-essential passengers, and DON'T ALERT THE MEDIA and I'd respect his efforts

#4 Latin lesson:

Sic Semper Fatuis

Second declension, ablative case (for indirect object), second person plural.

Motto of Virginia: Sic Semper Tyrannis: thus always with tyrants!

Fool=fatuus.

Frank G's right; skip the publicity if you're serious about rescue.

#5 Ya know,ZF,I pretty much leave you alone.As moonbats go your not to bad.But:"Well - at least the guy's taking the trouble to help."
Give me frggin break,a boat load of syncophants and a personel photographer.This was nothing but a"me,me,me,look at me"excursion.Guess I shouldn't be surprised,aren't you the guy that thinks 70 year old perverts marrying 12 year olds is OK.After all it's part of thier centuries old culture.

#6 R: Guess I shouldn't be surprised,aren't you the guy that thinks 70 year old perverts marrying 12 year olds is OK.After all it's part of thier centuries old culture.

Well, yes - because they're not perverts. Gay sex is a perversion. Sadism and masochism are perversions. Marrying younger women who have reached puberty is not a perversion. Unless you consider the Western world to have spent the entire period before the 20th century immersed in perversion.

#7 As the craft slowly sank in the sewage, Penn could be heard singing, "There's a hole in the the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza...."

#8 but apparently forgot to plug a hole in the bottom of the vessel

Heh. Someone forgot to screw a drain plug back in. Definitely, a rookie boater mistake.

#9 ZF, I deal with 12 year old children frequently, actually pregnant 12 year old children. Needing their mom's to sign for them for consents.
I'm late to your discussion without reading earlier comments, but to think a 12 year old child is an adult or can think and make decisions as an adult in my opinion is way off base. Sorry I have to disagree with you, as reaching puberty doesn't equal an adult. Finish school first!

Regarding Penn, photo op most definitely in my humble opinion.
