Lightning is definitely the dumber fear, especially if you're on the southern OR coast. I had a female roommate a number of years back who took up surfing one summer.

As a matter of fact, she was just a roommate, or housemate, I should say. Kind of a shame really, but that's another story... Does get one to thinking, though, that there's an awful lot we take for granted, those of us in possession of a Y chromosome...

Everything happens as God Wishes.
If God wishes a shark to bite you, sorry you're having a Bad Day..
But today, God wishes that I go kiting and have a great time. Tell your wife that next time she gives you grief!
God wishes that I kite in salt water Monday/Tuesday through Thursday, after big days in the ditch.
Have fun, as God Wishes!

I think like 2 or 3 summers ago a surfer got bit right off the jetty at Florence, exact same place we kite. The shark didn't formally introduce himself, but probably a safe bet it was a great white.
Very next day, the forecast looks good, so I head there thinking "no crowds today". Wrong - there's like 10 kiters chewing it up.
Everyone once in a while, as blowhard passed me I'd yell "shark" and point in a random direction, but it didn't seem to faze him, he scored all the good waves anyway.

| Blowhard is only 29. That's why he owns the lineup, just a little too much sun.

But there are 50 times more people get killed by donkeys in Tijuana than anywhere else on the planet.

The probability of getting bit by a shark on the southern coast is higher because southern oregon kiters don't bathe.
