    What is scuba diving's orange shovel?

    I agree with Jake...I have an orange whistle on my chest D-ring, mesh tank wraps, and a retractor, and I've been diving for years. Why do I have them? They work for me. It's the attitude that separates the "noobs" from the rest. Noobs nervously check out everyone else's gear hoping theirs meets...

    He's not the only one gone for the season.....the players union voted and Ted Saskin was sent home on a paid leave of absence while an internal review is conducted. According to the article I read, players who are involved say he won't be back. C-Dawg

    Why don't we emphasize cesa more??

    I got the chance to do the Ho-Ho's while in sub school. They closed the tower within a year afterwards while I was at EB, waiting for my boat to be built and going thru sea trials. C-Dawg

    Any Hockey Fans Around???

    I read that. However, on the "hotstove" segment of Hockey Night in Canada tonight, they discussed the Simon hit, and they seemed to believe it will be about what was reported, based on Hollweg not missing any time, and Hollweg's crushing Simon into the board just prior to him retaliating with...

    This better not be true, or the league will look like it condones what Simon did. I got this from the TSN.ca website, and saw it reported on ESPN's sportsticker while watching a basketball game as well. "TSN.ca posted a story stating that Simon had been suspended for 15 regular season games and...

    I've always said that in cases such as Simon's, the suspension starts once the injured player returns from his injury. In this case, as Hollweg appears to be in the lineup tonight, the suspension starts immediately. In the case of Bertuzzi's mauling of Moore, he's still be waiting to start his...

    Do you like diving?

    Do I like diving? Hmmmmmmm....Do I like breathing?....eating? Drinking?.....yeah, I like them all about the same. When I lie down at night to go to sleep, I imagine myself lying on the surface of a pond in the autumn. I can see the gold, red and orange leaves in the trees above me, surrounded...

    Gary Betteman is meeting with Mario and the Penguins...probably to schedule the moving vans. I doubt they go to KC. Even the guy in KC who made the offer recently stated he doubted they'd move to such a small market. Wouldn't surprise me to see them contact Ballsillie and revisit moving to...

    I was emailed these pictures today, and thought I'd share with other hockey fans. I think it's the coolest thing I've seen in awhile.....I need these guys as my neighbors, but they'd have to change the logo at center ice :D C-Dawg

    Tucker has HINTED of retribution when they play again. Wish he still played for the Habs. The guy plays with a lot of heart. In regards to an earlier post about players doing charitable things, this was posted today on a Habs website: It's one of those good news stories on what has...

    I think if you look at the popularity of hockey in the US (it's as popular as ever in Canada) it has become more popular, but I just don't think it's marketed well. Take a look at the rosters of US College hockey teams, and you'll see players from places like Texas, Florida, and other places I...

    Diving EPCOT Living Seas

    Well, that's one way of looking at it, and I respect that. My way of looking at it, and I'll be doing it when we go to Disney, is for $150, I can share my love of diving, and the wonders I normally see on my dive trips, with my fiance and family who are non-divers. When I come home from these...

    Cool story. This stuff happens all the time, but media outlets tend to ignore it and focus on the "dirt", with the reporters trying to make names for themselves. To read stuff like what you posted, you have to go to team websites, and read about their trips to local hospitals, opening...

    Well, with Sinden's management, and the Jacob's tight reins on expenses, Bruin fans have had a lot to boo. Living in Vermont, There are a lot of Bruin fans, and I've had numerous discussions (arguments) with them about the B's. My take is that as long as Boston fans are willing to buy seats and...

    HUH?!?!?!?!?:no Marc Crawford actually has coaching ability...other than being a cheap shot artist who cost Cam Neeley the best years of his career, what other abilities did Ulfie have? I'm not a Bruin lover, but Cam Neeley was the epitome of what a hockey player should be. It's too bad...

    Yeah, I've been switching from website to website all day too. The reason I thought the Habs could have offered more for Smyth, was they have 3 1st round picks (with the pick for Rivet), 2 2nd round and a few 3rd this year, plus a lot of players they could have shopped also, like Perezhogen...

    what to pack for liveaboard

    Take 2 wetsuits if you have them. Last liveaboard I did ( Cat Ppalu in the Bahamas), we were doing 5 dives a day. Getting into a wet wetsuit, particularly on the night dive was cold and zaps your core temp. Having 2, even if one's a shorty, allows one to dry while you use the other. I'd also...

    Cheering for the Habs...there's hope for you yet...lol :luxhello: :yelclap: :rofl3: :D ;) Bruins made a great trade today, picking up Aaron Ward. The Bruins loosening the purse strings and paying players...the miracles never cease. It's going to take a while before I can keep track of who's...
