To continue the off topic roll, sans paddle float:

Oh, and if you're in salt water, you should know that it goes straight up your nose when you flip. Burns like complete and total hell.

My doctor recently suggested a variation of this maneuver to relieve my stuffed sinuses. Unfortunately the context was not a scenic waterway but my head upside down in a sink while flushing a baster full of salt water through my nose. Burns like complete and total hell. He was right. My sinuses didnt bother me nearly as much. They didnt clear, but they were the lesser of my irritants. The kayak is sounding better and better.
