Pluggers by Rick McKee for July 05, 2022

When I think of Kevin’s cannonball in the second Home Alone movie, I wanna say: “Watch ya pants, Gent!”

My dive is more in the line of a cannon-flop combo….

I prefer a Preacher’s Seat. It actually sprays higher.

If he is a plugger of a certain size, he won’t even get into swim trunks, much less step on top of a diving board for everybody else to see.

Shouting “Cowabunga!” makes you seem cool to the kids at the pool.

Me bearly dives off em boards.

I’ve always liked the “Can Opener” with one leg straight and one pulled up. Splashed a 40’ ceiling, but then I displace a lot of water no matter the form.

Entering the water can be done much more sedately, without noise, without a huge splash, without disturbing other swimmers and without spilling one’s drink.

There was a DJ in Chicago [who later went to Phila.] Who would say say Cowabunga when he did the 8:00pm station ID. RIP Big Ron O’Brien.

A plugger remembers when “Cowabunga” (originally with a K) originated on the Howdy Doody show.
