I have 5 standard black plastic buckets on my boat. Not much use unless you have 4 slaves to make a bucket chain as well. Human nature dictates that if you have an emergency then people will help.

Not many would swim out from the bank if you are sinking in the middle. They could just shout encouraging and sympathetic rejoinders. That might help. A similar situation comes to mind...

The word just surfaced magically, as they do, from the depths. Of course it's "from" French, lots of words are, we just correct the spelling.

Military Idiot, Cad, pervert, Coward and Bar.
