[Spousal unit checking in]
Very interesting thread -- ESPECIALLY the thoughts about the screen name!
Just because it has raised questions, here is the history. On a total whim, I created the name "T, S, and M Associates" for a business checking account -- the name came from the two cats we had at the time, The Squeater and Mini. Some time later we bought our farm and started breeding horses AND acquired another cat, Tizzle. For the next 18 years we always had three cats and they always were either a T, an S or an M.
IIRC, Lynne used TSandM as her AOL screen name and that has been her primarily online handle for over 20 years. I guess it just goes to the kind of people WE are that it never crossed our minds there could be anything "funny" about the name, T, S and M Associates.
Does anyone remember who created the Borg Queen avatar for her? I know she had some sort of plain jane picture (I think it was a night shot of her in the water at Cove 2 with the Seattle sky line as a background) until the BQ was created. Again, IIRC, someone put it into a thread about DIR and urged her to adopt it.
Back to the OP's original question -- Would I dive with her? ONLY IF she allows me to dive "My Way" and agrees NOT to write about it on SB! (Or tonight, whichever comes first.)
