    Was going to get one of these for my truck hitch to deter tailgaters. Then I realized that only 5% of the population would understand it and they probably don't ride my bumper anyway.

    Drive in Movie on the Water

    Just ran across this today and at first thought what a novel idea. Then the cynic in me starting thinking of all the things that could go wrong. Are these boats anchored and are the patrons ferried out to them? Where are the restrooms when the boats are only six feet apart? Having experience...

Since I was on the...
