Also, deepstops and splitlip, I really have to speak up for darianis.........it was his first dive after cert., and I was VERY impressed. He looked more comfortable than I did at 100 dives. Big thumbs up to him and his instructor......................looking forward to lots more dives with him!
Hi Krista.
I was just giving that elitist reply that we see elsewhere. I was kidding. And I think from his reply, that darianis was on board. LOL
Props to the guy for venturing out with trolls this early in his new passion. Darianis is local and I look forward to meeting him in November.
(I am counting on it happening again TG 2011 ) I'll bring barley pops and cranberry relish.

"They called themselves Guerrilla Divers.
Composed of elite divers with Macho mentalities, back when men were men, and FEAR was a lispy companion of the common Man. It was a time before insurance liabilities, lawsuits or beauracratic regulation of the "sport". Guerrilla divers didn't need "Buoyancy Compensator Vests". In fact, "Anyone who needs a BC deserves to drown" was a popular adage. Exploration and the Hunt came first, excitement and fun followed. Safety was the stepchild of fitness, good reflexes and a cool head.
This was a time of great Adventure." www.sfdj.com
Nice Jim! Another Bridge event well done. There was new diver support, ray spotting, meat grilling, jello wrestling, squid interviews, trim fine tuning... OMG what else could go right?!
I'll be bringing a couple more new folks for Troll Initiation Rites in a couple of weeks, and I anticipate they are going to love it. Tonya & Gerald will be ready soon and they are eager. I told them all about your speedo!

He's got a license to learn (an OW card) and I'm sure he will. Classes will get you fills, mentors will get you squared away. Sounds like y'all will keep him on the straight and narrow

"...to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee. Sink all coffins and all hearses to one common pool! and since neither can be mine, let me then tow to pieces, while still chasing thee, though tied to thee, thou damned LIONFISH! Thus, I give up the spear!"
and it's all in good fun I don't take offense easily. I worked retail while I was in college heh so I have a good sense of humor. And I love the banter heh. No one really picks on ppl they don't like anyway. Well those that do are easy to spot and I have a policy of not feeding the trolls except the ones at the bridge that is.
I look forward to our next outing and if anyone is in the Jupiter/WPB area and wants a dive partner feel free to ask
