"Hello, IT department. Have you tried turning it off and back on again? Is it plugged in?" I'll bet you can't go the whole day without saying "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" Yeah, but it's usually, "Try logging out of eWatson, then back in. That didn't work? T...

"Their behaviour was more investigative, more inquisitive and a lot less aggressive" Many feel this way about Brian Johnson. Whoa! Jen, who showed you how to turn the computer on? I figured it out all by myself! You know the trick? Power. Oh SNAP! That's what I thought! "Hello, IT de...

All my tanks are DIN, but yeah, I can bring some extras filled with 32%.

These are the DC rings I use: http://www.divingconcepts.com/link1.htm And here is the installation instructions for keeping the wrist seal intact. I really should have looked at this before I installed the rings, it would have made life so much easier! http://www.divingconcepts.com/link5.htm #-o The...

I have the DC rings with the wrist seals intact, and use Deep See neo gloves. Good mobility and they're nice and warm. In the summertime I've forgotten to wear liners and my hands were just fine!

Well damn...

That looks nice! What housing, and how does it look without the flat port?

I will most likely be there, too, since I'm now back in action. I have gear I can bring. Long hose/bungied backup reg setup, jet fins, steel tanks in varying sizes (HP120, HP119, HP100), possibly more-all my spares are buried in storage, but I'm willing to dig if there's something specific someone's...

I don't know, I can only take so many yak-shaving stories before I end up wanting to do it myself....

While I've definitely (and gladly!) paid more than $30 for a bottle of champagne, $43K (I think it was 35,000 euros) is a bit out of my price range.

I bet it was freaking great, though!

I always knew that sharks rocked, I just didn't know how much...

I love my Halcyon mask and want another, but online searches are not revealing much. Are they still manufactured? Does anyone locally carry them?

Barring that, I'd hate to have to go through the search process again...

EUP at 8:45 tonight was murky. Maybe 5 feet.

I'm curious about the Razor, only because I'm such a DSS gomer...

Well, you know what they say....

When learning to dive with double cylinders, would there be any benefit to starting with manifolded doubles and then moving to sidemount, or could you just start with sidemount?

Thanks for the input, everyone. The job I lost was game designer/lead writer for a big-budget video game--the project was canceled and we all got laid off. (I think it had something to do with the project dragging out for 6 years and never delivering anything? Nah, couldn't be...) Anyway, if you kn...

Welcome to the club! A quick search on the Divers Alert Network (DAN) site turned up this article: http://www.diversalertnetwork.org/medical/articles/article.asp?articleid=31 As a future diver, you'll want to know about DAN anyway, so you might as well get started now. :taco: Edit- I see CaptJack ha...

A friend of mine swears by KY. [brief detour]He told me a story about 4 guys (himself included) running into a Rite Aid way early in the morning and buying a huge tub of KY on their way to a dive site. They got some interesting looks from the employees, apparently. [/brief detour] I use Seal Saver, ...

I have a pair of size 10 Bares that are slightly too small for my size 12 feet.

Done. shirt is on it's way

IIRC, Richmond Beach is in the Northwest Shore Dives book. Mine is in storage, otherwise I'd quote it directly... I've never done it, but I have to admit that it's crossed my mind. I will be watching this thread with with interest

Yeah man! Happy b-day!

I don't know why people were shocked that a crackhead turned out to be a liar.
