Just stopped in to see if anyone I knew was still around. There seems to be a few. It was fun. :D

There is something to be said for not turning your hobbies into work. I used to like computers! Try golf. That should get you back in the water in no time.

I'm a little out of practice so I think maybe I should pass on the dive, however, if I can get off work I wouldn't mind swinging by and meeting some divers.

I dove the Scout for a couple of years. It worked really well. I used the rear pockets simply for trim weights and a belt for ditchable weights. I did tend to shift a bit but it was fairly manageable. I am now looking for a BP&W however, at half the cost, the Scout is a great alternative...

I use a Zeagle Scout and a weight belt. It works and is really compact.

I dive a semidry suit and use a Zeagle Scout with a weight belt and rear trim pockets for my BC. I have found that about two thirds of the weight needs to be on your back just below the shoulder blades. (The two thirds rule seems to work with the 7 mil semidry as well as my 3 mil shorty.) If...

Knee high nylons.

I'm interested. The last time I went through The Park, I asked at the gate about diving. The lady knew nothing and acted shocked at the thought. She mumbled something about cold. Anyway, my LDS have dove the lake but it was some years ago. They have related that only parts of the lake are...

As stated, Bear Lake is really cold. The surface is rather warm by your standards but the thermo clines are horrible. It is still a little early in the year. I'm not sure that it would be diveable right now. Best to wait until latter June. Nevertheless, they usually dive it from the east...

222. 12 down and 23 to go.

I have the same situation. I have one ear that just equalizes faster than the other. It always has. If I ascend anything other than slow, I get vertigo. At first this bothered me until I figured out what it was. Since then I have expermented a little in the pool. The vertigo appears only...

What DaddyDon says. With a little practice, you should get to where you can dive just fine (other than not being able to see much) without a mask at all. It just takes a little time. You have been teaching yourself not to breath underwater for many years now and it takes just a little while...

Although I have not personally tried it, a friend and sometimes dive buddy of mine has informed me that it is possible to vomit through your regulator or you can remove the regulator,vomit and then replace it. He has personally tried it both ways successfully. Peronally, I think that it...

Depends on the Lake. I think 20 to 30 feet is excellent with most around 10 feet.

Well stated. So what is the answer? Do you just let the aligator stay on the golf course and bite the next person that offers the opportunity?

Nah. Because he bites people. Aligators are to be managed not taught. There are two kinds of inteligences in the Universe. Those that can act on other things and those that can be acted upon. It is requisite that those that can act have responsibility for those that can't. However, in the...

Of course it is. It uses exactly the same reasoning as saying that it is ok for an aligator to bite people because he is an aligator. It is not alright and aligators that do should be removed.

My father bought one from surplus through the NRA back when I was much younger. I have to admit it was a lot of fun although my brothers and I are still in trouble for shooting up his ammo. (Took care of a rabid skunk with it once.) Unfortunately the rifle was taken by the Teton Dam flood...
