Nope. I've been icing my back for a week because I injured where the end of my rib goes into the muscle at the vertibrae, and the pain shoots up to the side of my neck. I did this simply by stretching the wrong way.
Beyond that, a few hours of sand bagging would almost certainly activate my chronic bad back, and frankly, I am not in the mood for pain.

I would rather have that camaro boat that was on monster garage. 
Although this is fun, I got to drive it for a little while. http://www.historictours.com/washington/dcducks.htm

Okay, now I'm going to rain on everyones parade, so to speak. A lot of you are making jokes about needing a boat, or a jet ski, etc. I've been through a flood. It's not funny. It's not something you can remove yourself from easily. It's losing everything you've worked for your whole life. It's feeling helpless because you can't make the water go away. It's feeling dirty because there isn't any clean or hot water to shower with. It's being thirsty and the only drinkable water is in an army truck two miles away. It's being hungry, and tired, and scared, and wondering what is going to happen to you next. Sure we all see this on tv and disassociate from it because it hasn't happened to us today. But these people need help and support and to know that someone cares enough to help. Let's try and be more sympathetic to this situation. What can WE do to help?

I remember seeing only rooftops sticking out of the water in Iowa when I was a kid. Massive flooding. It's very scary. I'm glad you're not threatened by this devistation Patrick. I hope this weather straightens up soon.

Just pray that those kids are ok.
I won't know for 40 minutes until the 10pm local news is on.
If they drowned, I am going to personally bitch-slap their parents until their heads come off.
All I know is that my friends over that way said there were jet skis in the water, and they were frantically searching with helicopters and boats.
