I always wanted to ask Barney Brantingham if he would again tell the story I read in his column of an experience he had while vacationing in Tahiti. With the help of the public library, I found the original from 2007:

“Swimming from a sailboat off Tahiti, I was not warned of the strong current that began sweeping me out into the open ocean. Luckily I was able to grab a line trailing off the boat’s stern.”

Barney could tell a good story.
