Kayaker falls off dock while explaining how he fell off dock. Cape Ah San, Florida. Clavin Urgam, the unpredictable Irish sportsman, was explaining to kayak repair shop assistant Gator Bean exactly how he fell off the dock and landed head first in the shit-colored bog. “You see I didn’t have the best angle on it, so to pull the kayak onto the dock I threw all my weight against the tow rope and just as I did, the rope knot gave way so I went pitching backwards across the narrow dock and landed belly up on this canoe which was precariously balanced at the opposite side edge of the dock. So of course the canoe decides to . . . ” As he was showing Bean exactly how the canoe lost contact with the dock, Urgam fell belly up on the canoe and rolled softly across its upturned hull, just as he had done the day before, which caused the canoe to tilt off the dock just as it had done the day before, resulting in Urgam’s headfirst tumble into free air until his head disappeared, once again, into the shit-colored bog beneath the dock. The now-dusky-hued Irishman emerged with a fine damp peaty dribble obscuring his rosy countenance and muttering, “Just like that,” but his final comment was lost, inaudible against the engulfing howls that emanated from Florida native Bean.

Thanks to the oft-underestimated communication skills of Gator Bean, the "event" rapidly yet eternally became known around Cape Ah San as, "Clavin's boo-boo."
