Yes, it seems that a bunch of dumbass gawkers all piled over to one side of a barge so as to try to get a look at whatever naked people they might be able to see at Austin's Lake Travis Hippie Hollow area and tipped themselves into the lake. Travis County sheriff's spokesman Roger Wade said it was unclear why the people all were on one side of the boat. Puleeeeeze! Now who ya tryin' to dupe there Roger?
There was one really unclear thing about this story:
The accident happened during Splash Day, a semiannual event hosted at the clothing-optional area by the Austin Tavern Guild, a gay and lesbian bar association. [emphasis provided]Jes' 'zactly what do they mean by a gay and lesbian bar association? Is that an association of people who run gay and lesbian bars, that frequent gay and lesbian bars, or an association of gay and lesbian attorneys? Ya'll do need to make these things clear, ya know? [The rest o' the story]
[UPDATE: It seems I was not the only one who was confused about the composition of the group of the wet gawkers.]
Larry Morin pointed my way to this one, and also found that BMW is tellin' the truth when they suggest ya get more action when ya drive a Beemer.

Posted by: notGeorge at May 4, 2004 07:52 AMthe boat was not passing by hippie hollow and the people on the boat were not trying to get a glimpse of the visitors at hippie hollow. the boat had been DOCKED at hippie hollow for several hours and it's still unclear what caused the sudden capsizing of the barge, since it had already been docked at the park for several hours without any problems.
Posted by: witness at May 9, 2004 02:59 PMOK, so you enter into this conversation anonymously, make a claim that you witnessed the event, and dispute the facts as alleged by the newspaper. You additionally left a fake email address. As you have chosen not to reveal your identity thereby leaving no opportunity to cooborate your account, I find, thereby, that you are an uncredible witness and suspect that your testimony is an incredible fabrication. I thereby disregard your testimony from any further consideration in this discussion.
