Dora Does Jet Ski

         
            I didn't know this about Dora, but she likes to ride Jet Skis in Marina Del Rey on her days off. She rides fast and hard as she put it. So hard that she bruises her knees from banging them on the plastic body of the ski.
            Her solution to the problem was to buy a couple of compression knee braces at the ninety-nine cent store and some kitchen sponges. She's going to stuff the braces with the sponges to soften the blow as she rides. Then all she'll need is a pair of good sunglasses to keep the salt water from her eyes.
             I stood dumbfounded as Dora told me the details of her plan. I offered suggestions to replace the kitchen sponges, but none of my ideas were any better. I'll be interested to know how it turns out. It will either work like a charm, or cut off her circulation completely.
