I posted recently my story about being "Grounded Again". Now I have the sequel. Yesterday I started my PT with an accupunture session. First time and it was nothing like what I was expecting. In fact I was impressed and am scheduled for more sessions plus some pool work. But then the &quo...

Update time - finally got schedules meshed up between students and instructors yesterday, did our final OW dives at les Davis and I'm officially certifiable. Err, certified... Woo Hoo!

:angry: *&*(**&*&^%^&%%&*(^%^& sinuses! Woke up with some clogging comin' on... If they don't clear up by tomorrow I will have to scrub my first OW dive - which will suck 'cuz I have to fly to Denver on Sunday and can't go with the rest of the class on the *scheduled* day... ...

Hi everyone, one more new-guy intro for the forum... "My name is Jim, and I'm a ..." - oh wait, wrong kind of intro... :-) Anyway, the Jim part is right. I'm brand-new to the whole diving thing, working on my certification (first OW dive is set for this Thursday). I've wanted to start for ...
