    To celebrate my ttle sister's birthday today, we went to the lake. A total of 3 boats, and lots of people. We decided to go tubing. 1. My shorts started slipping. When I waved for them to stop, they gave the boat more gas, resulting in my cousin flying clean off, which in turn made me fly...

Once every few tries, itll start, but will soon die. If we leave the shifter in neutral, but give...
