re: Shark attacks Lakeview boy swimming in Lake Pontchartrain

We used to run and jump, or even dive head first, off of the top of the seawall when I was in high school. I know... Drunk and stupid. You'll get no argument from me many years after the fact.

Anyway, I went home more than once with worse looking injuries from the barnacles on the submerged steps of the seawall. (I was not only drunk and semi-self destructive, but a slow learner, as well.)
