Let's go swimming!

[Randgris]

Swimming in the ocean? Are you nuts? From what I remember people swim near the beach. Ocean swimming would be the last thing on my mind. I fear deep, open waters. Never go swimming in the ocean cause its deep, like I don't know, a few miles deep? I'd rather swim inthe safety of a pool.

Swimming near the beach is still (technically) swimming in the ocean.

OK fine you win, but I'm still not swimming in the frigging ocean. God knows what may be swimming down there. I totally freak when it comes to deep, open waters. I think that would be my greatest fear, greater than needles.

I am terribly afraid of sharks, tentacle critters and serpentine creatures that lurk undereath those pristine, deep-blue waters.
