You might recall that John Hinckley was a seriously-deranged young man who shot President Reagan in 1981. Hinckley was absolutely obsessed with movie star Jodie Foster, and in his twisted mind, loved Jodie to the point that, to make himself well-known to her, he attempted to assassinate...

Now that I've got your attention... I have a simply question. Do you put your drain plug in from inside your boat (front) or do you put one in from the outside (back). I've always put it in from the inside, but I've seen lots of people at launch ramps that had put it in from the outside and I...
