Originally posted by Udie It starts off great. Your roommate wakes you up early to see if ya want to hit the lake for a couple of hours of fishing. Yes you say as you hop out of your bed. You have your shorts, shirt, cap and shoes on in 30 seconds flat. You gas up the boat, buy ice and drinks. Get on the road and drive to the lake. As you get 1 mile away from the lake you see a cop w/ a detour sign. He tells you that the road is closed until 1:30 pm so you pull up to U-turn at the gas station there. You get out to move the baracade cones so your roommate can pull into the station lot. Then you have that wonderful realization. You remember hearing that the lake is closed until 1:00 for some STUPID IDIOT TRIATHALON!!!:mad: Too late and too far away from any of the other area lakes so you go home after spending 1 hour and $20....
