I want your dive shop . . . mine never gives me anything!
 
I was listening to vintage U2 recently and I could not pass up Zoo Station . . .


I'm ready
I’m ready for the deco gas
I'm ready
I’m ready for deep tech

I’m ready to drop
I’m ready to dive
I’m ready to say
I'm glad to be alive
I'm ready
I’m ready for the push

In the cool of the night
In the warmth of the seas
I'll be finning around
My legs bent at the knees

She’s just down the line . . . Crustacean
Got to surface on time . . . Crustacean



 
A dozen years later and I still think this is my favorite song!

Well my apologies to all who love ZZ Top's "She's got legs..."

She's got regs...

She's got regs!
She knows how to use them!
She dives with tables...
She knows not to abuse them!
She dives days,
Whoaaaaa.... she dives nights...
The girl is alright!!!

She's got tanks!
She knows where to fill 'em!
She dives Nitrox,
Its the best in her opinion!
Her tanks are steel,
they ain't light...
Heyyyyyyyyy the girl is alright!!!

She gots fins!
They're split down the middle!
She's got a BC too,
But it looks kinda little!
She looks cute...
Whoaaaaaaaaaaa, in her tight wet suit!!!
Yo, the girl is alright!!!

She's got regs!
She knows how to use them!
She dives with tables...
She knows not to abuse them!
She dives days,
Whoaaaaa.... she dives nights...
The girl is alright!!!
 
Nice to see this old thread alive again. Thanks, Pete, for all the good times online (and thanks for the more somber moments as well).

Check out Danglie George,
He's all over the gorge.
He's got all the gadgets he can afford.
He just loves to do his thing.

is definitely a keeper.

Wow, what a list. Ticket to Dive might be just the thing.

I think I'm gonna get wet,
I think it's today, yeah.
The surge that's been driving me mad
Is going away, yeah.
