Just thinking about the past, do you recall your mom/dad blowing a gasket?

My oldest brother took my dad's boat out fishing with a couple of his buddies. My dad, my next oldest brother, and I had planned a fishing trip the next day because my dad finally had a weekend off. At about 4:30pm on that Friday, my brother called and said he needed some help getting home. He and his buddies had sunk my dad's boat. That might be the angriest I have ever seen my dad, and I'm pretty sure he didn't speak to my oldest brother for months.
