We were able to watch these on Channel 11 in Moscow. Even though I didn't know the Seattle neighborhoods at the time, we still thought they were damn funny. COPS in Kent was a fave ("I'm sorry, your hair needs to be teased another 2" to be legal") as well as The Lame List and Billy K...

Re: New Rules Affecting Dive Trips

But you know what I love? I'm on a business trip in Houston right now, and I got through SeaTac security with my full-sized Swiss Army knife. I had completely forgotten it was in my purse. I'll be throwing it in my checked bag for the trip back, as I just *know* my luck will run out at the worst tim...

Tides on the 18th are gross. Best for an early am or late afternoon paddle around someplace not current-sensitive. If I'm not working, I'll be there. Oooh... ick! I just looked... they are gross.

Thank you all for your posts. I'm sure this means a lot to the family. And frankly, I know it's helping me--and probably Dive Monkey and NaR--with our coping as well. This is a wonderful community of divers, and I'm so grateful to have been "introduced" you all. (Thank you Defied. And no, ...

"He died doing something he desperately loved"

I ask that your good thoughts and prayers be with the loved ones of Bob Moreland (spearcatcher), the diver who passed away yesterday at Redondo. I have been in contact with the family, and they would like everyone on the board to know that Bob died doing something he desperately loved. Apparently Bo...

In regards to the diver at Redondo . . . I have the facts, I was there. But that doesn't mean I need to share. I've tried to be very careful about what information I posted because I know I wouldn't want to find out about the death of a loved-one or friend in this manner. However, I received a PM th...

And since that is the only book I have. And the fact that it's not in it. I guess it's never been seen before so I claim ...

Re: Should Nitrox tanks have the percentage clearly listed?

I am not a fan of Nitrox stickers on tanks. There have been a lot of times that I have dived with someone that has a sticker, but is diving air. I'm thinking (hoping) that was the case here, as I didn't see any percentage indicator on his tank. But this is exactly why I've been reluctant to put the...

Should Nitrox tanks have the percentage clearly listed?

I've only received Nitrox fills at 2 locations (1 local and 1 out-of-country on vacation), so I'm not sure of the SOP for this. At my local location, I'm REQUIRED to analyze my tank and enter the appropriate information in the Nitrox log, but I'm also EXPECTED (required?) to write the percentage and...
