Just had a brain fart and I'm hooked on it already. If this becomes some kinda official group, I may get a tattoo to add to my collection.

:D
 
Also interested in shirts and cards.

Played the bass violin in orchestra, carried the thing home from Jr. High a few times before achieving driving age. Dad had a half ton pickup with a camper shell and mom had a Buick Grand Safari wagon with a nice big V-8 in it due to this. Learned if I practiced a LOT, and dedicated myself, I might achieve mediocrity with it some day - and nowhere near enough jazz scenes where I grew up at that time.

After parallel parking practice in the wagon, driving test was a breeze. I'd abandoned my musical aspirations with the bass viol a few years earlier.
 
I hope we can get someone to draw a picture of the typical dork diver to put on the T-shirt. I definitely want at least one.:geek:
 
Okay sign me up. I played flute in middle school (ultra-dork points as a male right there) but later switched to saxophone (minus dork points for coolness?). I am fine with a jacket style BC (dork points?!?!?) but have been shopping for a wetsuit with the express requirement that it be "red" so I look cool and have the hot chicks flocking to me on the dive boat (wife is not reading this, I hope).

I was also in JROTC (super dork points) in high school and thought about putting 3 tank bangers on my tank just for the cool stripe effect (dork points!). I did however continue along the JROTC path into the Army and was in the 101st Airborne Division as an infantryman (cool points) and unfortunately for my membership prospects I look very cool in a pair of sunglasses with a rifle in my hands. :/ On the other hand I'm considering taking the orange shovel idea a bit further and spray painting an entrenching tool orange to strap to my bcd. You never know when you might need to dig out a fighting position at 70 feet when a horde of enemy sharks and starfish (pogues) appears.

So I'll leave it up to you if I can join the club or not. If you let me in, I'll need a t-shirt, bumper sticker, and a couple packs of the condoms (XXL of course).

Prove it :D I can loan you my boat hat if needed and you can re-take the picture, the hat should take you straight from cool to dork :wink:

The shovel would actually come in handy at the shallow sites when someone says "The depth is 25 feet if you dig a hole." :eyebrow:

Finally a dive group where I might fit in. Keep me posted about the Tshirt
