I made a crack about him only bringing lite beer.
He said careful, they're a lot stronger than regular light beers.
I laughed (Alcohol by volume: 5.50%).

After downing "several", I was pretending to steer the boat with my hat on sideways while singing the Popeye song.
The wind usually ranges from 5-15 knots when we're out sailing. The weather forecast was for 6-8 knots yesterday. We were actually seeing 1-3 knots, mostly towards the lower end. Not as much fun, but there's rarely a bad day sailing.

My Z's collision avoidance system is the nut behind the wheel. Another method is extended stays in the garage while undergoing a major renovation.
