    It's unbelievable that he hasn't died yet. Goes to show what a good job modern sailboat manufacturers do of making their ships hard to sink...

    Fiberglass is pretty tough. It helps he has been drifting in the pacific in a calmer current. If he actually was capable of sailing around Cape Horn or in the North Atlantic he would be 150% dead by now. Really it's a matter of time, when his donated gps transmitter runs out he is dead.

    Yeah, but with the amount of time that he's spent adrift, I'm surprised he hasn't run into a storm strong enough to sink him. Especially since he clearly doesn't know how to sail, so he wouldn't know how to rig a storm sail and run with the storm, etc.

    This guy doesn't even take his sails off. He lets them get ripped to shreds and he somehow gets them together. Somehow people keep donating him new sails (probably so he will leave their island) and he gets towed out and drifts away.

    But there is no real answe why/how he is alive still. People keep donating shit via Facebook.

    A woman charged with killing four of her young children and their father smiled and flashed a double thumbs up to news cameras during her first court appearance Friday in metro Atlanta before telling a judge she doesn't want an attorney.

    Also, an immigration official said the woman, who is from Mexico, entered the U.S. illegally.

    At least he has an actual need for extending the mirrors, unlike 99.9999999999% of the Heavy Duty Dodge trucks I see that are all apparently pulling a Ghost Trailer.

    I guess I can see where fish-looking guy, or gal, or whatever it is might be attracted to the other guy, gal, or whatever it is due to them looking so much like a shiny fishing lure.
