Was looking over some things and watching the tellie when a question occured to me. Does anone actively dive with horse collar style BCs anymore? It seems that there are some advantages and disadvantages to the design, but to me it seems that it has gone the way of the dodo in this BP/Wing and...

And on a side note, the possibility of getting salmonella is why you can't get truely good cheese in this country too.

Couple off a couple of things. First off, NEVER USE THE EGG HOLDER IN A REFRIDGERATOR!!!! They are evil and lead to nothing but egg breakage. Use the carton the eggs came in. Secondly, holding eggs in the fridge as opposed to countering the is just plain smart. An egg left on the counter will...

High-carbon steel wok Mini Salt and Pepper balls Click-Clak storage canisters Alton Brown's "I'm just here for more food" Anthony Bourdain's "Kitchen Confidential" and "Les Halles Cookbook" Not a single piece of cast iron. Dang it.

It's been a while since I've posted anything "profound" and I was sitting here thinking about all the Food Network shows that shouldn't exsist. All that read this particular part of SB seem to watch and I was wondering what your list would be. Let's be specific, and not mean. 1. Calorie...

I can't say I ever liked her. She was never a great cook in my mind, she was just around (on TV) so long that people assumed she was good. And don't get me started on her food handling skills. Food Network is doing a special about her tonight and it's all very hypocratic if you ask me. When...

Well then, we've been back a month now, and I've had sufficent time to take it all in, so here goes.... We arrived in Cancun at 1500ish on Thursday. While I had no trouble clearing customs, my future inlaws did not fair as well. The customs offical wanted to see their marriage certificate. In...

Well, we're out the door. Next stop Cancun (Via Birmingham then Atlanta). May not get to dive, but we'll see. At the very least I'll get to snorkel. Trip report to follow.

OK... now we're staying at Cancun Palace. Calgon take me away.....

Sub Old Bay with marinating the shrimp in Dale's Steak Seasoning for a couple of hours.

So, the future in-laws are taking the fiancee and I on an all expenses (minus diving) paid trip to the Grand Oasis in Cancun on the 15th-18th. I've read some of the reviews of the various operators down that way, and have considered my options. But, as with most thing, something is nagging me...

Ummm....no. The "O" is still getting cleaned up in TX and won't be sunk until late September/early October at the earliest. The folks over at the USS Oriskany Reuninon Association would be some of the first to know since several of her members plan on being there when she makes her last voyage...

That's good news. Headed to PCB next weekend with a large group (some of my AOW students) and was hoping the jetties were diveable. Last time we were down there they weren't because of the dredging that was going on.

I realized a few days ago that my beverage drinking pattern changes as the summer months approach. During the rest of the year my poison of choice would normally be Dr. Pepper (especially the real Dr. Pepper), but as it warms up I find that I drink more Mello Yello. I suppose it comes from the...

So, yesterday was, well, yesterday. Before I get going, let me et something off of my chest. RockDivers is really beginning to tick a lot of people off. Specifically what's got everyone so up in arms is hours. Clearly on the RockDivers website it states that May-September are considered "Summer...

Went back out to RD yesterday and am going back out again today. This'll be the last chance for me to get wet before taking off to the panhandle in two weeks. Conditions out at RD haven't improved much. Vis is about the same and the temp on top by my guage was 72 with 58 below the thermocline at...

Ok then ya'll, I need your help. We would rather gnaw our own arms off than dive Vortex, how's about some alternative dive sites in the area. From my research thus far looked like we are USCWAP big time. Seems the state of FL is buying up all the springs and closing them to divers. We need...

B-E-A-utiful. Just when we were supposed to be there. Man I hate this but looks like we'll be stuck driving Vortex. :11:
