Who is talking about spoiled divers? Santa Catalina??![]()
Hey, it's cold and dark out here this time of year. Why, I haven't even been in the water once in 2008.

Who is talking about spoiled divers? Santa Catalina??![]()
I agree. Now that I am single I am finding it very difficult to find someone to date that is a diver. My friend set me up with someone he described as a "diver"...the guy had not been diving in seven years!
I also don't buy the excuse that these people don't live near the ocean. Most of my diving is in quarries...some that are three hours away. I'm sure that even most landlocked states have diving options within 3-4 hours.
Maybe we should start a thread : "Where is your favorite school bus dive?"
I'm stuck about as dry as can be right now sitting in Baghdad. There's a big man-made lake around Saddam's palace here. I told a guy the other day, 'ya know...if they sunk a bunch of tanks and anti-aircraft pieces in there and let me dive in it even once a week...I wouldn't mind being here.'
Aye
And now allow myself to correct... myself. It wasn't an article about dive computers (that was the next article), and they didn't use the word "avid.

Speaking of Millbrook, don't forget the chilly willy dive on Jan 26 - no thermocline![]()
Sounds like you need a fix! Come on down to Fl. I'm diving tomorrow, Sat & Sun (12 & 13), and the following Fri & Sat (18 & 19) so far. Won't see much kelp, but the fishies and coral and sharks are great (not as in Great White, of course) :bubble_fi
Yep, this has been the worst 3 months out of the last decade or so. At least I've gotten a fair bit of editing done on my existing footage.
What's diving without kelp and great whites just out of sight? Of course you do have bull sharks there!
