in a weird coincidence, i was born on my birthday some time ago...i then moved around a bit...saw a diver feeding sharks in the shark tank in marineland in socal...saw someone dressed as a human seal at sea world...saw an aquarium filled with fish in monterey...snorkeled in hawaii...stepped off a boat in thailand (luckily i was wearing some scuba tanks, a mask, fins, a bc, snorkel, weights, and a reg at the time; even luckier, a similarly equipped dive instructor fell in the water right before i did)...fell off a boat in hawaii...now wondering if i might somehow fall off a boat in lake michigan before i move...
