Bad news: Just the other night, Taz, a good friend of mine, informed me of his personal injury accident.
Good news: It wasn't serious enough to require emergency services.
Bad news: I didn't get to see the cool flashing lights and men in uniforms.
Good news: There is no damage to the side of the pool.
Bad news: There is damage, in the form of a rather nasty bump, to the top of his head.
Good news: There was no blood loss so his chances of being devoured by sharks was practically at 0%.
Bad news: The pool was well lit and the sun was out, so visability can't be to blame.
Good News: The pool was well lit and the sun was out so he could easily grab the edge of the pool after he came up spitting the water he ingested on impact.
Bad News: No one was there to save it on film for posting on YouTube.
Good News: His dog witnessed it and is willing to give interviews.
Bad news: I can find no reason to hold the pool designer, installer or maintainance crew responsible for the event and therefore, can't attempt a $54 million lawsuit.
Good news: With the simple addition of a rope attached to one end of the pool and the other to his ankle, I believe this can be prevented from happening again in the future.
Bad news: There isn't a big breasted nurse yet to volunteer to assist in his rehabilitation.
Good news: The rope I discovered is much cheaper than installing a larger pool which would simply tire him out before he could hit the side again.
Yes Taz, I totally believe you when you plead the 5th to the question of this being the first pool vs head collision and that "if you had any sense to begin with, you wouldn't have hit the side."
Shouldn't it be T-A-S (which is how we spelled my cat's name): Thick as Sh*t
