That too. Like you guys don't go thru that imagine your dream trip to the great barrier reef or some other place is your excitment going to be like going to work on a monday morning. I don't think so.

I usually day dream of all the dives I would like to do and places to go. When I have a dive planed. Especially one that is not local I get so excited I'm like a kid that's going to Disney World.

whatever works and whatever is safe. If it's not broken why fix it. When I bought my car I specifically asked without all the upgrade no power doors or power windows. Sometimes the more complicated it is the bigger the chance for it to break. Don't get me wrong I have a dive computer and I have...

Mike, thanks for sharing You have open all our eyes especially mine. I'm glad your feeling better. You have motivated me take even more, extra steps on my future dive trip to Costa Rica. I hope that you have a speedy recovery and that things work out for the best. I'll be praying for you...

I say its a hobby unless you compeat in some type of match weather it is a Nav. course,spear fishing or depth limits or the like of it.for a trophy or cash prize. other then that its a hobby. And man I'm I hooked!!!!!!

I've been all over the world and I've only gotten sick twice and twice was at Dominican Republic. I stayed last year at iberostar and I wasn't impresed with the hotel or the diving. Except for a cave dive I did that was great but the reefs no big deal. I went with another couple and my wife, all...

Sharp great story on the second one, sad on the first. In 1997 it was my first yr working in the fire department. We had a 6 yr little girl that drowned in a neighbors pool. I'll never forget that call. I guess that's why I'm adimitt in not having a pool in my home and teaching my son how to...

Funny story, the mind can play tricks on you. Every time I see a dead person I think he will sit up and open his eyes. It's all those Steven King movies.

thanks for all your replys. I can't wait to get there.I'll post my dive trip report.

I'm going to Costa Rica at the end of the month.My wife is planning it all because we are staying with family. they gave me the name Bill Beard because we are staying at that hotel. has any one used them before(yes i did do a search). Also how's the diving there the hotel is located in NE of...

I have the same problem I can float like a bouy. At the beggining I had to pile on the weight to get down now I'm trying to stream line and drop some weight. Once you get it down you will have an awsome time. Enjoy your dive.

I like my LDS I'll pay a little extra for my stuff. but if I have any question ( which I have had) or have a problem (which I have had) he takes care of me. So I take care of him. Theirs a spanish saying "Lo barato salea caro" this means that cheap stuff end up being expensive.

Gedunk, add stomach If your swallowing all that, that can't be good. Have you seen some one who has had esophagus cancer or some one who has had their lips,jaw and gums removed due to smokeless tobacco not pretty. Not to be sarcastic but I guess it would be hard to hold a reg in your mouth.

From a healthcare providers point of veiw. Give it up quick. I've seen people drowning in there own pulmonory fluids due to years of tobacco use. They smoke for 50 yrs then quit and they expect that by quiting their bodys are ok. But it's all that damage done and old age why they can't breath...

Thanks for all your replys I just got the e-mail I was waiting for. It's from the director of training of SSI. He says my paremedic will cover the first aid part and my ACLS willl cover the CPR. thanks and dive safe.

I did the CPR Instructor thing but I let it lapse about 3 yrs ago. I was busy with personel stuff. I'm still waiting for SSI to E-mail me back I sent them something on thursday.Depending what they say I'll go that route. If I have to I'll spend a Sat. morning taking the class. I hope not because...

Nightraven I dove punta cana last year do you want the truth. I don't want to burst your bubble. But I didn't have a good time due to time.. I dove 10 min off the shore of the resort. MY worst dive in the Fl. keys was better ( I guess I'm a little spoiled ) then the reef dive. I was so...

krick thanks for the question I had the same issue last week because I dove back to back 3 days last week and I was on the road so i couldn't air dry it. Taffy would just the listerine and not that LOC from amway work???

thanks for all your info. looking back now I've been a paremedic since 1997 and I think I took a cpr class thru work in 99 it was the fastest class ever I did it at work so it was more a check the box type a thing. As for staying current well my job keeps track of all my education mandated...

Happy B-day ScubaBoard and thanks for all you guys who took the time and made this possible. You guys have made me a safer diver thanks.
