Alright, to keep Lolo Pao happy, I'm going to nominate, ahem, me.
For your consideration I offer the following 10 reasons for my inclusion (or exclusion on the grounds of being plain stupid): -
1. 41 dives in 8 days or 5.125 dives / day in Palau
2. Attempted to hang self upside down off a boat on dive #993 (I think)
3. Dove in public wearing pink sleeves and leggings with white tassels
4. And a cowboy hat
5. A pink cowboy hat
6. Paid more money for a dive light than I did for my first car
7. Along with a certain K-diver, hit 103fsw on a 66fsw night dive (after 3 deep-ish day dives) in order to photograph a particulary cool cuttlefish, trying to calculate my deco obligations on the way
8. Dove to 120fsw with breathing equipment older than my mother
9. Generally dive in shorts and maybe a Tee if it's a long way to the site & I don't want to get burned
10. Almost executed the Warhammer Maneouvre in the presence of a K-diver with a camera.
There is more, of course, but this can do for starters.

FO SHO!
