Hey, it could happen. (NOT!) But, you know, there is a Sherlock Holmes story in which the husband was fooling around with the governess, and the wife killed herself but made it look like the governess had murdered her.
I was looking at weights today in a store, and I picked up some 5-pound wrist weights. Those things were HEAVY! What was that receipt of Scott's for? 20-pound ankle weights? (Who the heck could use such a thing... Arnold??) Someone would sink like a rock wearing such things.
I hope they're sold with appropriate warning labels: "Do not attempt to swim while wearing ankle weights, as this could be hazardous to your health."
