“I woke up twice to pee, that was it.
“Other than that, it’s been a great night. I just smoked half a joint, I’m high, I’m watching all the people running around like crazy because of all the water.”
“Water went up to here last night, it was over the f**king pole,” he continued, pointing to the rod on his boat. “Believe me, I got battered against the tide, but other than a couple of scuff marks on the side, my boat’s in better shape now than it was before because it got washed.
“It’s a win-win all the way around.”
Lt. Dan also claimed to have learned that there are a lot of good people around, given all the help he was offered after he went viral.
America seemed happy to learn he was okay.
