GUE Expedition to Atlantis

Not content with exploring places that exist, GUE divers are now diving into the power of imagination and past century cults.

`From [Cayce's] psychic, deep attunement to universal consciousness, he said one of the key temples with 32 stone tablets is off the coast of Bimini at the [edge] of the Gulf Stream,'' Van Auken said.

Well, this is the humor forum, and that isn't a joke, but I find it funny.

Robert Carmichael, CEO of Brownie's Marine Group, based in Fort Lauderdale, is one of the leaders of the GUE expedition. While Carmichael doesn't exactly buy into the Atlantis theory, he and his colleagues have observed some of the ``unnatural features'' Van Auken mentioned -- long, curving sandy trails winding through the sides of steep, underwater cliffs 200 to 300 feet deep that look like mountain switchback trails or ski runs.''

``It's hard to think that would be naturally-occurring,'' Carmichael said. ``We need to go down there and measure the pathways and accurately survey them.

Translation: these new age kooks are paying us money to go dive the bahamas, so we have to pretend there might actually be something to their dribble


In a few months, they will also be diving in Lake Michigan to look at weird depressions that a guy who works at Whole Foods thinks is a BigFoot track. The guy isn't an expert in any relevant field, but has some money he inherited and no common sense. Thus is funding a junke- errr research expedition.

Funkytown surely is bad and I am down with that. I hope there are a lot of swell pictures. Word up, my damp brother.

Wish I could go to fantasy land but since I'm a smoker I'm not allowed on GUE trips since being a smoker makes you a stroke who isnt DIR material!

cigarette smoker, pole smoker, pole stroker? HUH?

Does diving places that don't exist make you a stroke? Or shouldn't it? Diving for a place that someone made up to tell an allegory is like 1000x lamer than having a snorkel.

Any excuse to get in the water and dive is good enough for me.

"Doing it Right" apparently doesn't apply to picking board members.

Hey, I wouldn't give a cr@p if someone wanted me to search for Snoopy's lost doghouse especially if they were sponsoring me on an expedition and paying my expenses to dive...
