    V is back!

    Remember the goldfish cocktail? They're baaaaack... V (2009 TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I'm not sure where the new version goes, but if it has any hint of a sleeping-with-aliens theme, I am not interested. They may look human, but until I know otherwise, they are...

    Peeps Show - Washington Post

    As a former Washingtonian, I sometimes read the Post online. I came across this yesterday, and I thought it was hilarious. :rofl3: It's clear that some people are very creative and have way too much time on their hands. Enjoy! Peeps Show III - washingtonpost.com What would Martha...

    New corneas from sea cucumbers?

    Not quite sure in which this category this falls, but I heard the following while driving around the other day: http://lohdown.caltech.edu/script_archive?date_to_view=2008-02-12 In short, it indicates that sea cucumbers can be used as a source for human corneal transplants. This isn't...

    Avalon Harbor Cleanup - Lose a fin?

    Someone unpacking gear after attending the Avalon Harbor U/W Cleanup is going to be disappointed when he/she unpacks and finds only one fin in the bag. If this is you or or anyone you know, send me a PM to identify it -- it's in my garage.

    PBS - Foyle's War

    I am watching this detective show on PBS on TV. The odd thing is that the actor who plays Mr. Foyle looks disturbingly like how I remember my uncle Charlie, and by extrapolation, like my father. it isn't just his face, but the expressions on it. It's hard to turn it off...have you ever seen a...

    Pesky pet pix

    Okay, I'm bored! I'm home, immobile, recovering from foot surgery. My pet is taking advantage of the situation. He is insanely jealous of the laptop. Here he is, literally walking all over me. The black cap kept him at bay for a while, but he truly has no fear...

    Bunion surgery?!

    After a recent escalation of pain, I can put it off no longer, according to the doctor. Specifically, a bunionectomy with an osteotomy is on the agenda. 1) Has anyone had this done? 2) How long were you out of the water? My has doctor advised 6-8 weeks, depending upon how it goes --...

    Catalina Divers' Supply

    Last weekend, I did my first dive of the year, indeed, my first dry dive since last spring, at Casino Point. My dive club normally does this as a way of getting in a dive or two to test out anything new we may have received over the holidays and ease our way back into the water. This way, if...

    Any diving around Playa Herradura?

    I might be headed in that direction in Costa Rica, and was just wondering if there was any diving in that area. If not, how far would one have to go to find a dive operator? I've been doing some looking around online, but so far have not come up with anything in the immediate area. There is a...

    Mid-life allergies

    Okay, I admit it, I never believed that "hay fever" was real. Suddenly, at 40-something, I find myself with the "cold from hell" that isn't a cold. It's some kind of nasal thing; anyone who saw me at Scuba Show 2005 in Long Beach has probably purchased stock in facial tissue manufacturers...

    Timex helix user help

    Okay, I've read and re-read that crazy little book, and it is making me nuts. I have only had the watch out twice, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how this works. Attempt 1 - I forgot to put it into dive mode. Attempt 2 - I tried using it in dive mode, and on the dive, I see it...
