Sorry , My bad attitude and disposition sometimes shows thru my smiling face

No worries. You're used to diving solo in the muck off Ocean city so I wouldn't expect you to have good social skills.

Then we are both on the "jerks that make personal attacks" team..

We need to bring back Karl in Kali/Indigo Blue and we could also ask Scuba442/SpongeBob/*insert name here as another tag team for a one time only, back by popular demand "reunion tour" of misguided ideals and overall bozonity.

Anyhow...I think we should just all plan a dive day at Deception Pass. We all know the date and time. Next year I'm bringing crampons and an ice axe for the underwater rockclimbing portion of the dive.

Is that so you can actually stay submerged

Hey cork girl...watch who you're accusing...but yeah...it's so I can stay submerged for about 6 seconds more than you...

That dive has one of the all time funniest downloads on my computer. It was SCREAMING at me in regards to ascent speed. I loved how it went from light to totally dark to air in under 20 seconds...(for those who missed the original thread many months ago...we were caught in a whirlpool which first sent us racing downward then popped us to the surface all in mere seconds). It was an absolutely fantastic dive day...nothing is more fun than riding the back eddies in a portion of the ocean with 300 foot cliffs in front of you which you can't climb while waiting for the tide tables to be right...but it never happens because of the storm heading your way... What will our intrepid divers do?!
