    Overcoming grief via SCUBA? My own thoughts.

    Hi Jim, Yes, I knew it was a year old thread. I had never read it before, so to me it was brand new. Your story & experiences seemed to me, to not have an expiration date. I am sure you know, that when you post on an open forum, people will comment on your posts. It becomes a topic that is...

    Overcoming grief via SCUBA? My own thoughts.

    Having recently experienced the loss of a child, I read your post with a great deal of interest. Three months after his death, we did go on a dive trip. We needed to get out of the house. I can tell you that for us, diving is just a temporary diversion. There is nothing that will ever make...

    Looking to buy a Henderson lycra suit, to wear under my Henderson Gold Core. As a side note, when I bought the Gold Core, it was advertised that it would slide on. No more wrestling with your wet suit. That gold coating sticks to my skin & I feel like a lose a layer or two of skin...

    Special of the Month: Mares Ranger 2 Regulator - $114.95

    Didn't get my old US Diver reg in for service before my big Aug. dive trip. In a panic, I decided to buy this reg from LP. The cost was about the same as what I would have paid for servicing the old reg. It was great reg for the money and the shipping was lightening fast. Two days after...

    Whale Sharks where to find them

    I snorkeled with them off of Isla Mujeres, which is a small island near Cancun. It was amazing! My BF & I got to go in the water 3 times with them. They are beautiful gentle giants.

    Just curious about accuracy of airport weigh scales...

    I can tell when I lift your bag if it is overweight. To get an accurate weight the bag must be standing upright, in the middle ~ completely on the scale. If I lift it & it feels heavier then what the scales says, I reweigh it, putting it on the scale correctly. We are not supposed to, but we...

    Just curious about accuracy of airport weigh scales...

    At T5, in ORD, a private company certifies the scales every 3 months. I have no idea how accurate they are, but it's all we have. We can't go on the testimonial from the passenger, swearing their bag was 10 pounds lighter at home. On the flip side, I have had many people tell me the scales...

    Carry On Baggage Fee

    First off, let me say I work for an airline. (Oh the stories I could tell you) I laughed out loud when I heard what Spirit was going to do. Everything they said about carry ons is true, true true. And it is brilliant - in theory. I would LOVE to just sit & watch the Spirit ticket...

    Ladies I Need Your Help!!!

    My favorite suit for diving is a water polo suit. It zips up the back & is made to be crazy tight. ( Cause of all the fighting under the water, in water polo) I always pull it to the side to go to the bathroom, with no problems. The suit is made by a great company, Agon. AgonSwim.com...

    Coral Scuba - Isla Mujeres

    I just dove with Coral in early August. I was dissappointed enough with their customer service, in the shop, that I decided to just do the 2 tank dive & then find another dive op. The actual dive was fine & the DM was great, but I was glad we went with another op. The rest of our dives...

    Whale sharks - honeymoon Feb 2009 - where can we go???

    My boyfriend & I just swam (snorkeled) with the whale sharks Aug 5th. We booked the trip through a dive shop on Isla Mujeres, MX. But I think the whale sharks are only there from June to mid Sept. It was an amazing experience. Typical for me, I showed up unprepaired. Used their crappy mask...

    How we pack to get around the "second bag"

    I work in the International Terminal at Chicago O'Hare. A quick check with my neighbors has confirmed my previous post. My airline does not have a limit and there are 2 other neighboring airlines that have no limit. There are several others who are 25lbs or even less.
