I just never learned though. I don't like the water. When I used to go across to England on one of the old cattle boats when I was young I always got seasick. If I ever fall in, I'm drowning, man.

If you think about it, you're on a goddamn island too. It's just a whole lot bigger than mine. Shut up.
