    Sunken treasure? I don't get it? Should I break out my mask, fins and snorkel and start looking underwater?

    Man I wish I was your friend so i could have been on that tiny, little dock that is never used by your house. And saw a tug boat just sitting there. I'd be like, "WTH?" and then to see some Scruffy ass dude hop out and drive away! Crazy! Did he hop out of the tug boat? Did he have a beard and cigar like a tug boat captain? Did he take the boat with him? Man and all that mysterious chunks of metal. That story has my mind going of all the possibilities. Did you get any pictures? Please finish the story. I can't handle the suspense.

    idk, just thought it was cool that some guy is scrapping metal with a tugboat. probably just random debris he finds while working tugboat jobs. always cool to pull aside a lil extra cash when the opportunity presents itself
