everyone post your myspace links. LOL!

FThornton666

Bad bad move for you to post that on the internet, especially since you are a woman. You will soon be getting strange IM messages. If i were you i would delete that. just my opinion though.

FThornton666

We might as well just put them in our siggys.

benzgal i got the scuba hookup. i am in ft. lauderdale picking up a car right now to head down to the keys.

get certified and you can join on the next trip i plan next summer. i think the destination is the bahamas or cancun. i will know after this week of diving. then again we might just return to the keys next year and rent a bigger house.

oh and x your fingers i may have my benzo back and rolling after i get back from the keys. not that much was damaged in the accident.

at what point does one not have game?

I think someone should start a new thread:

"Post a picture of your sister" :p

BENZGal

Thank you for the advice. AIM is pretty cool about capturing it and allowing you to respond or not. I only plan on responding to the people that I have met or know. The myspace thing is not to hook up, I have someone. I just sank in to the peer pressure of my friends who talk on it everyday. It's like the greeting card that keeps on giving.
Eric,
Thank you for the offer about the diving hookup. My customers is one of the worlds best Urcin divers and he is teaching us. Diving is not a joke, and I plan on learning from this guy. In spring we are going to dive Yongala in Australia. It's a sunken ship and the best dive spot in the world.
Usman,
Have mike forward you the pic. It's on my phone and I sent it to him.

I have had "4" opportunities to learn how to dive. Once in Florida, then Idaho, in Korea and finally in Japan. I regret not doing so in Korea because they had an incentive if you extended your stay you got a free trip to Australia. Yet I have not done so. But this year mi-espousa and I will take the plunge. Ausralia might be a plan for us also. I met some very nice individuals who live there. We were all stationed in Iraq together and still keep in touch

BENZGal

Childish...That is so cool. You were in Iraq? We all owe you!
As for the diving, I am doing it off the Ventura coast near Santa Cruz Island. We have seen a few baby sharks and my heart sank. You feel so small next to them. So far the sharks have been cool. It's a different story in Australia! We are going to dive to a sunken ship where tiger sharks and other massive creatures are common. I am starting to train my arms hard core at the gym right now so I can throw a good punch in the water. I will still be terrified, but life is too short to pass this up!

Childish///AMG

Yes I was in "Iraq" I am an OR Nurse. But I do not look like I am a nurse Mi-espousa and I will try are best to make your gtg. It seems like it will be alot of fun. You are correct life is far tooo short not to go for daring things. We will probably start our lessons with the individuals who are on the Search and rescue team on base. Keep up the good work in the gym

Childish///AMG

Mi-espousa just informed me that our next door neighbor who is Army is a Dive instructor. So when he comes home I will talk to him about lessons.

You are going to one of my most fav places on the planet!! I LOVE Santa Cruz island. Nice Choice Are you by any chance staying on the island, with the Conservancy?

When you go diving, I know they won't take you in the kelp, because the water near the beaches is the clearest, cleanest and best to dive in of anywhere, like Catalina. (And the kelp is where the seals are, which is, therefore, where the sharks are - ahhhhh!) They make underwater throwaway cameras now that go really deep - SC Isle was made for them! You can take a picture of a shark and everything else you see

Also, while there, I don't know if you've got time to do other stuff, but it has the BEST underwater cave system, and the BEST and easiest to find indian stuff and fossils, if you like climbing and hiking around. If its super low tide, you can go back in that cave tunnel thing really far under the island. Supposedly, is the longest cave system of its type in the WORLD :o

Lisa,
That is so cool that you also dive. We took a day trip and didn't stay over night. The guy that is training me took me in the kelp beds to show me that they were nothing to be afraid of. It looks like a forest of trees underwater, and nothing like I expected. Life was good until I got my first jelly fish sting on the hand. Holy S###...talk about pain! I guess that is another thing I need to get use to. They felt bad for me so they took me on a road trip to Morongo Casino for some Petrone!

Forget the limo to the club guys we should do a trip to Morongo. That place is huge and the clubs are fun. I like it better than Vegas. We should have a meet there in the winter.

oggle

Morongo casino? Out in the middle of the desert?

lisamcgu

[QUOTE=BENZGal]As Sean would say, WTF - I have never got a jelly fish sting and I don't know any diver who has, not that I know every diver on the planet, but its just not a regular occurence and I hope you weren't led to believe this. Don't worry about getting used to it ... And, I have dived, swam, snorkled, rockgardened, all of it, around SC Isle and have never got a JF sting? Not even second hand. So I don't think you have to get used to it even if you go in cold water, or that area?

And wtf were you doing in the kelp??? Yah, kelp okay, seen it, different, cool, but now can we go take advantage of some of the clear bays and actually see the ground COVERED in shells and all the sea life swimming around, not just ENDLESS KELP? That should have been your next question. You did see more than kelp, didn't you? I'm glad he made it up to you, but ... WTF???

Saprissa

is that anything like Mondongo soup ?

BENZGal

[QUOTE=lisamcgu]Lisa,
LOL...I know this is off topic, but it's my thread so what the hell. Two other people got stung that day so I don't feel that bad. It's like a bee sting, it doesn't happen often but might. The guide surfaced us near a school of them and we couldn't come up any faster to avoid them??? It's no biggie. As for the kelp, I had a phobia getting trapped or tangled in it. Let's face it being underwater with all those creatures is a little intimidating. I thought the kelp was a big mess and he was just showing us that it's much like a forest. Some of the kelp was a few car lengths away. Sure we saw neat stuff. I thinks it's a crime but I got a purple coral from the bottom. We saw tons of sea life and I am hooked. I am seriously considering cave diving. We should hook up and go diving chick. That would be cool. If we could supercharge our fins we would be set. LOL Do you skydive Lisa?

Morongo is between The O.C. and Palm Springs. Quicker to get to than Vegas.

lisamcgu

[QUOTE=BENZGal]EXACTLY! You've obviously gotten to know diving very well. Since you are used to the cold and enjoy collecting, I say we get you dry suit certified and head over to Ireland. I know a spot ...

Never skydove(?) I thought the goal was to stay in the plane

JamE55

LOL Uummm what's a Mondongo soup? I'd still prefer Oggie's pizza.
