Re: looking for info about DIR/UTD
thanks guys, glad to be here. I am hoping this will facilitate more diving for me by helping me find dive buddies.

Isn't that why we initiated the NHZ policy? If somebody has a serious topic they don't want de-railed, they are welcome to label it as NHZ, and we respect that, and if people don't, the Mod's will enforce it.
This thread followed a pretty typical pattern, I agree, but again, the OP participated in the threadjack, so again Bob, why is this any skin off your nose? There are tons of over-regulated, heavily modded forums on the internet where people can go to get a question answered, then the thread dies. In this case the thread continued AFTER the OP's questions were answered in a slightly off topic direction, with a bunch of "DIR" trained divers poking fun at "DIR" stereotypes.

BTW - when did my bodily functions come into this? Also - it's been quite a while since I've been involved in a thread-jack like this.
If someone doesn't like the flavor of where some threads go, then they can probably feel pretty confident that they're not missing anything of substance by skipping the rest of the thread and spending their time reading another one.

that song is even better when buzzed, as I currently am. ( making it through to Monday when I can visit the back-cracker and get this sciatica straightened out)

Re: looking for info about DIR/UTD
Haha! wonder why that is? One I do like anytime is that song they used in the Sherlock Holmes movie when he's fighting that old-style MMA bout. The Road to (something can't remember...). Anyhow that one's awesome.

What the heck is this DIR you speak of? Fruity Beer Bad, Arrogant Bastard Good, Mothership Wit Very BAD!
I know nothing of Rabbits and Bobs picture made me laugh.

Oh, and what the Hell DO you do with a drunken sailor? I didn't make it past the first verse.
