Scott, are you diving Commando again??? :P


And here I thought we were the first group... :D

Of all my weird personality traits, THAT was the one that came to you first? :cool1: Apparently I slur the word 'sitter' so when I say dog s$*!&ter, people only hear 'dog'.

Any psychoanalysis required would be way too simple for someone with Jessica's capabilities. :P

Writing tonight from Pelican Internet Cafe. Did two dives yesterday, one with Patojo and one with Rafa. Rafa caught three lobsters and prepared an incredible ceviche, which he shared with Craig, who did not dive Saturday and myself and Patojo and others. Jessica joined Craig and me for dinner which finally ended up at Blue Water Grill. Today Craig and Peter and I dove and were joined by a couple from San Francisco. Rafa was guide both times. Water was calm and weather great! Yesterday Patojo's wife invited myself and Craig to their daughter Linda's ninth birthday party. Craig, Peter, and I bought some Mylie Cyrus stuff as a gift after we had lunch after the two dives. The party was great and many kids and their parents were there. Peter took some great pictures and Craig did an extensive video which will likely soon be on youtube and we should all expect to be able to see both their efforts soon.

Also note that it was extremely difficult to get to single divers site from the cafe. It kept going to web searches. A real disaster. Finally able to google diver_runner_artcollector and that got me to a site where I could access. :cool1:

I hate to ask the obvious but did you try just typing www.singledivers.com into the address line at the top of the screen? :cool1:

For those of you that purchased pictures from AquaDivers - check your pics.

They sent me three pics but only two were ones I ordered. I haven't heard back from Julio yet but am hoping they'll send me the correct one.

I had no issues getting access form Pelican Internet Cafe. In fact this whole thread was started there from machine #8.

Sounds like you had a great extra couple of days. I tell you what I've already ordered a pair of Blade fins for the next trip down there. Rafa is a damn fish and I needed something with more power than those split fins of mine to keep up with him.

You might want to tape it up on your bathroom mirror. :hiya: You are way too fun to tease.

Brad, I did the exact same thing after the Keys Krawl this past August, when I encountered current stronger than my split fins - or I - could handle! My LDS let me try the Blade 2's in their pool and I compared them to my splits, and I bought the Blades on the spot. Best part is, they weight like HALF what my split fins weigh! :diver:
