  • "Have you every seen an elephant with an afro?"

    One of our patrons asked this of another lifeguard, and I'll give you two guesses as to what he showed him, and the first doesn't count.

    There is no emoticon that can properly convey my feelings at hearing this little story.

      Took me a minute. Thought he was insulting an overweight black person. Wow, I can be dense sometimes. But now...thanks for the mental picture.

        I think I'm going to role-play this with my husband so I can react well I ever get flashed. Assuming I feel safe doing so, I'd like to be ready to say something like "aww...how cute, look at the little guy" or just point and start giggling.

          I was gonna make a joke, but honestly I don't think I could top this.

              At first I thought he meant literally, as in, showing us a picture of an actual elephant with an afro or a clown wig photoshopped onto its head.

                  You are probably correct...We do have brain bleach on tap, if that helps.

                          Last, scream, "A WORM!!!" really loudly, while trying to stomp on it. (I don't recommend this one, but it might be fun to imagine it while doing the point and laugh.)

                            1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
                            2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
                            3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
                            4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.
