That may not be a bad idea, especially if your next flight is on SW!

 Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Hey, that's not fair... They have the best safety record in the world.
(At least that's how I make myself feel better since I have to fly SW to Orlando next month)

I flew home Sunday on Southwest, had a lot of scary thoughts on the flight back, the plane was bouncing all over the place when we turned at Block Island.
 I hate to fly  I hate to fly  I hate to fly

That is absurd.
They evidentally can't enforce, or don't have the balls to enforce the other more dangerous boating distractions, but let's put all our weight behind a lifejacket law?
If they were to stop and fine every boat captain (For the sake of comparison: boats that would fall under this lifejacket law) that were or had been drinking while operating, they would clean up!
But they'd rather nickel and dime the average boater, on top of all the other idiotic rules, regulation and fees they have to endure!
It's like the IRS. They wouldn't life a finger going after multi-million dollar tax cheats, but put granny into the picture and they'll nail her to the wall for forgetting to claim her bingo winnings!
Sounds like more of the same!
