<p>OK, well, maybe not a float tube then :)</p>
<p>Just Tuesday, I was carrying my tube down to a lake with its pack straps and a cyclist who'd never seen a float tube before asked me about it. I explained what they are and how they work, and he asked me if there were any dangerous animals (he was from somewhere else, either Africa or the Caribbean judging by his accent) so I said I wouldn't use one in the south, where there are alligators and a couple of poisonous water snake species, but…</p>

<p>Vince I smoked also for 36 years and was up to 2 packs a day,, have not smoked for three years, 8 months. You can do things different with eating better foods and really watch the sodium numbers in food and the cholesterol count. Get out and walk all you can, it will help lower your cholesterol.</p>

<p> I have got to make some lifestyle changes for sure. I am a sucker for some good fried fish, and chicken. I quit smoking three months ago, cold turkey after many years, so I guess I am hard headed enough to do whatever I set my mind to. I wonder if oven fried gills are any good? I have made oven fried chicken which uses almost no oil, and it is not bad at all. Thanks again for your reply, Ronnie.</p>

<p>lol JB, we actually have some water snakes in the waters I tube. One time about 10 years ago I was fishing a small fairly shallow subdivision pond with rip rap around the shore. Snakes sightings were somewhat common, so I never worried much when I would see one swimming across the water. Well one day I saw one about 15 ft to my side and he went under the water. I started kicking slowly away when I happened to brush a tree branch under the water. I started kicking and churning water trying to…</p>

<p>It is great to hear you are up and moving around. Take care of yourself and you can get control over the prolbem. Had two stents put in Oct of 09. Didn't think I could eat fish unless it was fried...baked fish has become the norn and I still enjoy eating it!</p>

<p>Glad you're doing OK, Vince. If you don't float tube yet, it's great low impact exercise. I have stiff knees but they always feel great after a tubing session.<br/><br/>Don't float tube in waters that contain, or may contain, gators. It may offset any potential health benefits :p Ditto for cottonmouths and water moccasins :p</p>
