1. To stand about without any aim or purpose; to stand about idly; to linger; to hang around.

when will i learn that no one else was paying attention to the conversation in my head. i will ask a question 3\4 of the way through it to a co-worker and just get weird looks.

thank you for your thoughts, i wasn't planning on taking the aow right now, not quite wet enough behind the ears yet. just trying to find my best path. what i am looking for is a strong foundation to build upon. i have been contemplating some of the commercial aspects as well, but at this point i am...

i will not argue the importance of the instructor. i was thinking more along the lines of depth of information, schools of thought, philosophies, etc...
also, which programs are interchangeable? has anyone had issue with this?

i was hoping to get your views and experiences as far as the different agencies go. good experiences and bad. i have my open water certification through padi, and wish to continue my education. i just want to see which approach would be best for me. i welcome past links too. i apologize in advance i...

well, i have asked around, a few strange looks later, and i am weird. apparently everything about me surprises people. does me surprising people surprise me seem weird? dill havarti is my favorite. i also put dill on my mac and cheese. i went to school to be a mechanic, and massage therapy. i took o...

i think that the neoprene will be best for me. i tend to be really rough in things. delicate, i am not. :naka: as for the seal, i seems mostly fine, but a bit wrinklish. think baby elephant skin. i just wanted to be sure that i do everything that i can to keep the suit happy. a happy suit means a dr...

first off, wooo hoooo!
and now for the question. the suit is an oneill xts 5/7. the neck and wrist seals are neoprene. it has been stored for a while, and the neck seal seems like it could use some "plumping".
what can i do to rejuvenate my new suit?
thank you in advance.

a worm from a fisher?

thank you to all who play beaver. when we were there for class a couple of weeks ago, a few people were kind enough clear a path. it would have been very difficult to waddle down on unsure legs with the addition of a logjam. i should have said it then, and for all, :notworthy: thank you. :notworthy:

be careful with foot powders! i grabbed whatever was handy one day and froze my feet. (it takes a while to fully work out the powders too) some powders have menthol or similar ingredients to them, and while this might be great for jogging, it is not so good for cold toes. i use desenex and that one ...

i only used those 3mm for about 30 seconds. i had another pair of 5mm that i used for the dives. i would like to add, i have cats. this means that any time i am in the bath i have always have someone watching. after all of my snorkel clearing etc, i got out, and no cats! can't remember the last time...

we did the hot water trick, i just dont produce body heat. next time HANDWARMERS! brrrrr. very much looking forward to the next dive. wooooohoooooo

i saw starfish, aneneneneomies, i think a sculpin, possibly a perch, and a crab! we went to les davis, and i was very cold. lots of fun though, a bit scary when you cant see either the floor or buddy.
now i need to practice!

where is the fun if there is no challenge? i have a bathtub for that.

what a hoot!

it was nice to put some names and faces to the wetsuits.
two more hours!

I believe I fixed the quoting problem. Let me know if anything else seems strange around here. Thanks, The Management :bounce: w0Ot Had to do it!! :supz: This could go on forever. ..... and ever. Nah, that'd never happen. you two neeed help Sparky :occasion5: You're probably right, Sparky Right abo...
