They are probably Texans.

Having lived on an island for a couple of decades everything is about being in / on / involved with water.

Beach, boating, fishing, water skiing, hell you could even take a boat bar hopping.

Like two people drowned a year.

Here in TX we have these massive lakes.

They are death traps.

I have no idea what's in the water here but people routinely jump off boats and never come up.

We had one last week.

Any Holiday weekend is pure carnage.

Last 4th of July we had 5 in N TX, 2013 we had 7. That's in one weekend.
