    When I was younger and was in the water more often I found that I could do that forever without getting tired, just slowly gliding in the right direction. So long as it wasn't too cold and the waves not too high it seemed like I could swim like that for as long as I could stay awake.

    Did they? That's got to be a pretty bad sign for national dignity.

    Anyway, it's a good choice of flag.
