I may have been that guy that was lower. Something very similar happened a few years back, this guy was on 30% and heading into the abiss down the wall....he was too low for his buddies to get him so I went down (straight air for me on that dive). I caught up to him at 155 feet. His buddies said that he'd be dead if I didn't get him. What an idiot!! I didn't even know the guy, but would not chose to dive with him in the future if I did know him.

If you took it to a jeweler, you'd probably get a whole lot more than 1,000 if the pawn shop gave you that. Pawn shops always lowball customers.

In Okinawa, Japan we often find womens underware. I think it is because main land Japanese girls come from the cold areas of Tokyo to Okinawa, and find the water 84F and take late night skinny dip. I have found at least 20 pairs just off the sea wall of American Village. One would think these girls would be afraid of the sea sankes that are all over these locations.
