I don't know what schlep means, but i can only think that it makes you really lazy and bad!
I wonder that you don't even show up on enemy radar!
Hope you have a good trip (you bad lady!).
Hee hee. Thanks for the info. Schlep is Yiddish but it has migrated to the general population like a lot of Yiddish words have because it is so descriptive. Schlep means to haul. It's funny because even on a liveaboard, doing 5 dives a day, by the end of the week, divers sit on the benches before the morning dive, just looking at each other before donning their wetsuits saying "Man, this is such a pain." No one I dive with has every come down on another diver for getting tired. Now, when you're a 6 ft man with lots of muscles as opposed to a middle-aged 5'2" woman who has to work hard to curl 12 lbs, there's the difference. Also, when you're short you can't carry an AL80 with your arms extended otherwise it would drag on the ground. TG a thin skin doesn't come with being *lazy*
