the Great Lakes graveyard

Today's Tidbit: It was reported that at an unnamed life-saving station a crew of lifesavers, at the height of a roaring gale, were seen rowing out into the lake lashed by huge waves.

An onlooker shouted to the coxswain of the boat, "You fools, you'll never get back!" Where upon the coxswain replied, "The book only says we have to go out, it doesn't say we have to come back."
