Am I?


(scratching my head...)
Well I think it was more of the don't do that (take your cards to the car before checking in) or everyone is going to think you are cheating.. Like at the poker dive.. Even though I would never cheat.. I was teasing you.. :evil4:

Yes, make sure you head down and vote for my photo (I only submitted one).. I'd put it up so you'd know which one is mine so you could vote for it.. but enchantmentdivi is always accusing me of cheating at events like these ;) so I'll just have to send my telepathic photo over the boards..

Well we all know that the reason guys like diving is that girls see things bigger under water.. I will leave it at that.. I probably misjudged the size.

Did any of you guys pay attention in your OW class? Because you broke an awful lot of the rules you were supposed to have learned before you attempted a dive like that. That is probably the moral of the story.. The basics were not followed here from the old gear, to the reverse dive to leaving your...

Who is this interresting fellow?

I probably need a refresher from Janna.. But I had a great dive at Mile Marker 8 with Bandito yesterday and this little guy was darting around below me.. I chased him down and got a few shots.. He looked to be between 6"-8" long and very quick... http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1114/118265...

Just as an aside.. to the whole water thing.. If you are diving on Bandito charters they will provide you with all the water (hot or cold , fresh or salt) that you can possibly need or want.. Well maybe not hot salt water but all of the other combinations.. They are awesome so don't forget to bring...

It's good to see people wanting to volunteer though. Perhaps we should set up more of a formal "Big Buddy" type program through the board where folks wanting to volunteer can help out newer divers by taking them out after thier cert dives. I know right after I got certified one of the thi...

So Cal is where I am a native.. I am admitting that in a public forum so I hope you all still like me.. But of course I didn't start diving until I moved here and dive the PS so I don't know about the diving there.. For sure any shore diving is going to have surf.. So Cal has some of the best waves...
