Keeping Jorj in line is something I failed at long ago. Now I just watch and commiserate with his wife.

As for sailing: yes. My brother, who had just undergone a shoulder replacement, and I decided to take on the famous Santa Ana winds a couple of weeks ago. We didn't get far. The wind was so fierce that the boat started sailing before I even got the sails up. Figuring my brother and his new shoulder would be totally useless, I turned around and came back in. Getting into the slip was a bit dicey. I had it full power in reverse and it still came in way too fast. Thank heavens for 5 of my neighbors who helped to stop it. Nice adrenaline rush tho.
