Question and Answer (a game)

[almitywife]

A: yes, where there is hope there is life!

Q: after a dive on sunday-fishermen brought back a mako shark that they caught and killed so they could keep the jaw. i was pretty disgusted by them and belive they should have released the shark alive - what do you think?

 

[parrottheaddiver]

A: i only keep what i catch if i intend to eat it, not display it for a trophy...thats what photos are for IMHO, but too each their own.

Q: what accomplishment are you most proud of in life??

 

[ScubaAngel831]

Wow, what a tough question- I dont think i have actually achieved what i intended on by the age i am at right now. I did get an AA degree- and would be so much prouder if i could actually get back to get my BS or BA degree and get a GREAT job that offers group benefits, paid time off (increasing yearly!) and sick days and personal time- wow- what dreams i have!! my next accomplishment isnt going to be revealed though until it happens!

Q: What is the deal with GAS PRICES?!??!! (they have gone up at least $.15 in the last week here!!!)

 

[almitywife]

a: well according to someone, i heard that the war in Iraq suppose to make oil cheaper

q: in australia, a litre of petrol costs $1.27AUD.. so, if there is 0.2642 gallons per litre - how much is that per gallon then? (my brain hurts too much to figure that out today)

ummm... math and metric systems, not really my thing.


Whats the most you've spent at the dive shop on one trip?

 

[almitywife]

A: tomorrow when hubby picks up all his new Ikelite stuff. housing, strobes and a whole heap of other stuff i dont pretend to understand .. so about $5,000.00 easy i think.

Q: what is the one dive purchase you sit back and think "what an idiot i was for buying that-what was i thinking"?

 

[c-monkey]

My very 1st bcd. A jacket style in size xs that had only about 10 lbs of lift. I was carrying 20 lbs back then, so even fully inflated on the surface I was up to my nose in the water and I couldnt breathe from the death squeeze. When I finally replaced that thing I remember thinking "Omg, NOW this is fun, I GET IT."

That was a good question-- anyone else want to answer?

 

[Tanked]

Yeah, my first bc was a mistake. I replaced it after a few dives.

If you could change one thing about Scubaboard, what would it be?

(not here long enough to say much more)
