Exact. Panel on Deadline just talked about this exactly just moments ago. It has come up here many times and it only gets more detailed in all its glory as the perfect metaphor!

he could have just left it alone. There would have been problems with leaking and algae, as there has been for years, but it is unlikely that he would have been blamed. However, he just HAD to make it about him.

He is a runaway train.

He is an unguided missile.

He is unhinged and unfettered.

And everyone else is paying the price.

This term he has been raking in the dough big time and at an age when he really doesn't have the time to spend it. Yet more mindless greed.

A little childlike voice is crying out inside him, "Will you love me now Daddy and Mommy? Look what I've done."

Of course, the answer is usually, "You're a disgrace and a disaster. You are and always will be a low IQ loser".

I can't believe this madness has gone on as long as it has. It is like being stuck in a really bad dream and being unable to wake up.

I'll bet he could come up with a good horror story about a pool/pond/some body of water that involves an ironic ending for a 'deserving' subject.
