maple dark ale sounds interesting, I'll have to look that up. The one in the fermenter is my 9 lb. Hammer, extract with steeping grains. I to lazy to do all grain.

Dadvocate, You've obviously never scene the crab torture scene from the the Kirk Douglas/Tony Curtis masterpiece "The Vikings". Personally, I feel if dolphins are willing to have sex with us, they should be willing to rescue us.

An uncontrolled ascent could cause an embolism, DCS, or other potentially deadly conditions. :no: Drowning will kill you. :skull: If that's the choice, drop the weight belt.

Sounds yummy. I've got an ale in the fermenter, but it's been so cold at night (well, cold for San Diego) maybe I should have done a lager.

I've pulled Japanese fishing floats out of the middle of the Pacific Ocean, half way between Hawaii & the US, that had little crabs hanging onto them. As far as the rescue by dolphins goes, there have been many reports of this over the years, dating back to ancient Greece. Back in the 60's...

In 30+ years of diving I've never ditched, but I've found 3 weight belts on the bottom, so somebody must have. What I want to know is, why do I always find them at the beginning of a dive. it's a pita to carry an extra weight belt the whole dive!!!

I met Gene at a San Diego Ocean Foundation dinner, he has become a major contributor for them. He puts his money where his mouth is; he also donated several Star Trek props for auction. Anyone who is willing to devote time and money to protecting the oceans is a good guy in my book.

An interesting thread, this. I checked my 1975 edition of the Sport Divers Manual last night and it had no mention of a safety stop at any depth for any length of time for a NDL dive. It also recommended inflating your horse collar to initiate the ascent.:confused: I did not do safety stops...

On the other hand: My parents married a month after they met, after only 4 dates. (there was a war going on) They just celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary. You can beat the odds.

I usually boil them for about 8 min. the day I get them, then pop them in the freezer. When I want to eat them, I split and clean them, butter them and throw them on the grill. If I want to feed more people then I have lobster this is one of my favorite recipies: Pasta with Lobster, Tomatoes...

You also need to work out an information plan. Someone should know where you are going to be diving and when you should be back. Make sure you carry some identification and contact numbers with you on your dive.

Babies are easy. Feed em, clean em, bounce em on your knee and throw em back in the crib. Teenagers, otoh, are the spawn of the devil.

I knew a marriage counselor who was going to write a book titled: "Marriage; a lot more fighting and a lot less sex then you ever thought possible" Of course, people don't go to counselors when the relationship is going great. Like Dave said, communication is the key. Contrary to everything...

I pity the fools who seriously thinks they can plan their romantic future. The gods keep track of remarks like the op's and plan their amusement accordingly. 20+ years ago, three months after separating form my wife, I went to a party "just to meet some new people, not looking for romance." I...

I checked out the article on the web site: Patterson Irrigator | Your Local Paper - The year in photos... It's taken from a 2008 retrospective written by a photographer. Not exactly Pulitzer Prize material, but probably not that damaging, considering the total readership of the paper...

This whole thread makes me kind of sad. Mutual disrobing is a significant part of the whole experience; the aesthetic pleasure to be taken from the gradual revealing of tan lines, the inferred symbolism of the various items of clothing, the visual feast of the final form in it's voluptuous...

volume of sea water in the oceans: 1.37 billion cubic kilometers volume of water in my pool; 95 cubic meters next question?

Here is an alternate method for locating the anchor line. When I dive the pipeline I locate it with the depth sounder on my boat as I cross over it, and anchor a few dozen yards away. That gives me a bearing from the anchor to the pipe. After descending the anchor line, I swim along that...
