    Going to the Zoo at night

    What are the details on this night time zoo thing - is it on a Saturday? It sounds interesting, but do you need a head count to make reservations or something? For me it would depend mainly on whether my daughter has any major homework due and what her assignment grades have been like...

    Where the he** is Matt?

    Ok, I don't know if anyone else has seen this, but I just recently was provided this link: http://www.wherethehellismatt.com/dancing.html I really loved both videos - they were completely and unexpectedly fabulous. He even does some underwater (scuba) dancing in Chuuk!

    Anyone have any contacts for a DM on Lanai?

    Jeez - excuse my grammatically incorrect thread title. Can't seem to edit it. Does anyone HAVE a contact for a DM on Lanai? My family is planning a short weekend golf trip over to Lanai (one night) in August. Staying at the Manele Bay. I'm rather ambivalent about going (I don't golf)...

    going on vacation

    Nope, this will be the first time. Greece was always on my list of "must sees" - so when I started planning a trip to see Paris and London again, I figured I'd throw Greece in since I was flying all that way anyway. This June 10 GTG sounds fun . . . wish I could make it.

    Netflix - your experience?

    I've been a Netflix subscriber for about 6 months now. For the first 5 months, I thought Netflix was the best thing since sliced bread. I raved about it to friends and family, watched lots of movies, thought what a great service this was. Well, the honeymoon's over - and so soon, too...

    Diving out of Turtle Bay?

    Ok guys, thinking about doing a shore dive out of Turtle Bay. Saw blue magoo's comment in another thread about the outgoing rip currents and also read a review on shorediving.com that alluded to the same thing (and it also mentioned there was little sea life to see). So, is this a dive...

    Kauai Dive Instructor has leg cut off by boat propeller

    I read an article about this in the paper yesterday - and found this update online this morning (hope the link works, never tried to do this before): http://starbulletin.com/2004/07/23/news/index3.html WOW! :11: I'm just kind of wondering if the divers had a dive flag flying from...

    A Scubaboard club of our own!

    WOW! Let's say I was more than surprised when I saw NetDoc's announcement . . . though I suspect from recent forays into the Board that now we do have enough members from our neck of the woods to form our own chapter. I remember way back when . . . it seemed like I was the only Hawaii...

    Worst ever?

    This past Sunday I went diving with an operation that I go out with on a fairly regular basis. The DM for my dives is someone that I have dived with several times, and is one of the friendliest, personable and most helpful guys I have ever met. During our SI, we got into an entertaining...

    over or under?

    This is probably a silly question - but when using a hood, do you prefer to place your mask strap over the hood, or under it? I'm in the process of growing out my hair and it's at the really irritating stage where it's too short to pull back into a ponytail, but is long enough to wave...

    Back in the saddle again

    I am ecstatic to report that I finally was able to do a couple of dives this past weekend after a 4 month hiatus. I had been forced to be dry for about 2 months starting in October due to a severe cold and subsequent rib fracture - and then my regulator going for service in November and not...

    Looking for a specific type tank rack

    Does anyone know of an online website where I can order one of those tank racks that is made of (what appears to be) PVC pipe material? Diver's Direct used to carry them, but now all they have are the foam ones. In fact, most of the online websites also only carry the foam tank racks. I am...

    What's the best -and worst- Christmas gift you ever received?

    I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping, but I've got a couple of those real hard people to shop for left. You know, the ones that have everything, want nothing (or at least what they want is waaaay to expensive). In a desperate bid for ideas, I was wondering - what was the best Christmas...

    Current life truisms?

    I was sent this today - it's my life in a nutshell. :) Life in 2002 means: 1. You have 5 passwords, but can only remember one. 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three. 4. You e-mail your...

    What are your buddy "requirements"?

    Do you have minimum "requirements" that must be met before diving with someone? For example, I have seen over a period of time several posts in which people state they will not dive with someone unless they have at least a Rescue diver certification. So . . . do you have requirements in...

    rib fracture

    I've just gotten over a nasty cold that laid me low over the past 2 2 1/2 weeks - and to add insult to injury, I have a rib fracture that was brought about by my coughing during the cold. My doctor informed me that it will take about 6 weeks for the fracture to fully heal, and I am not to...

    Shell collecting?

    This topic has been broached in the past - but it was a while ago and we have a lot more members, so I thought that I would bring it up again for some new opinions. Additionally, the previous thread spun off into a spearfishing tangent, which kind of diluted the original thread topic. How...

    Bug Hunting Techniques

    I read a recent thread on hunting for crabs - my question is whether hunting for lobsters is similar. Open season starts here on Sunday, and I've never tried it. I was planning on doing a sunset and night dive that night to look for some (but instead think I'm going to dive a wreck in the...

    Scuba etiquette 101

    I hope this topic hasn't been discussed to death before - if it has, please point me in the right direction. (I did a quick search with the terms "pet peeves" with no results). I always enjoy hearing about inconsiderate, annoying and otherwise socially challenged divers and their irritating...
