Found about this site from a diver visiting Keystone Jetty from California, so here I am, I recognize some of the names from Northwest Diver. As everybody here (I assume), I enjoy diving, take pictures and do little bit of cartooning :)

Hey, Jan!

Welcome to the club!

The rest of you may not know it yet, but you're in for a treat! Jan is an oustanding underwater photographer who combines his skill with the camera with cartoons! As hard as that might be to visualize, it's a perfect blend!

Welcome Jan and Jeff! Between an expert photographer and someone looking to get into it, I probably fall somewhere in the middle but it's so much fun!

See you on the beach!

No mention in your bio of your work with the team that found the Warren car. Also, if I have my facts correct, you're the one who actually found Russell Warren (or at least part of him) during a deco stop. Fascinating story that's worthy of a major Hollywood production.

You have your facts correct....although you definitely had to dig WAY back to find that old post! HA!

Yeah, had some time so I was reading the intros. I've met you at least once or twice via a mutual friend, Randy Williams.

GAWD! You know Randy Williams and you'll admit it????!!!!! There goes the neighborhood! ;)

I just saw Randy last night at the HDS conference. I'll post some photos of the conference on the photo gallery here soon.

Yeah, I admit it. I seem to prefer to mingle with the more nefarious types like myself. But now the neighborhood has REALLY gone to hell, I saw he's joined our ranks! I know he's lurking about here somewhere...

I'm sure Jan (pronounced YAWN) will post some later, but here's one of my favorites (if it's possible to pick a favorite):

My name is Tony Miljour, and I’m a Nudi-o-holic. It’s cool though because my wife lets me look at nudi’s on the internet! Nudibranch that is! They are so cool that anything about me is insignificant in comparison. But were not comparing so here I am…
6’2”, 245 lbs, Brown Hair, Blue eyes, Southern California native, Moved here for the weather ten years ago, and am only considering going further north. Love life and all that crap, especially the underwater kind! I have been certified through PADI since March 2005. As of now, I have 45 dives and am not happy about it, need more. Other things I like to do is sleep. I think sleep is really important because it allows you to do the things you have to do like Dive, Cycling, Hiking, road trips, and hanging with my wife. So for me, sleep is my escape from those harsh realities, o’ that and eating, that’s fun too, love to eat!
People think I’m boring but that’s because they don’t really know the dynamics of a good Parcheesi game. So, give me a huge chance and you might like me as much as I like me! Until then, lets go diving!
