Sometimes I think---

[Nemrod]

What it must be like to float leisurely on the surface in a nice, soft BC vest, my head high and my rig stable. Sometimes I even think what it must be like not to have a cold piece of metal stabbing my in my rear end. Sometimes I think like it would sure be nice to have some big, roomy pockets to put my gloves and a little light into. Sometimes I think what it must be like not to have a crotch strap strangling me. Or what it must be like not to need to wrassel with a stupid weight belt. Just thinking about it makes me feel all cozy and warm and safe.

But no, that would not be cool and techie, so here I barely float with my metal plate poking me, my head barely out of the water with each wave depositing one gallon of salt water in my gullet, my sausage has no home much less a place for a nice little light or a place for some gloves and the crotch strap strangling me.

I am rugged, I am techie, I will endure and tough it out and all for the sake of fashion. Sometimes I just have to think that. But, then, imagine if there was world peace and always perfect dive weather, alas, I ask for too much I suppose.

Put more air in the wing.

That would be one of the old Scubapro Classic vests.
Funny post, post-partum blues from going tech?

Join the rebellion, get a freedom plate (if you can) and a matching Oxycheq Mach V wing. Zone out with them...

Peace.

Perhaps if we could find a way to get together, I could take a look and spot the problem.

Here, Nemrod, I helped you out a little bit.

Sometimes I think
What it must be like
To float leisurely on the surface
In a nice, soft BC vest
My head high
My rig stable.

Sometimes I even think
What it must be like
Not to have a cold piece of metal
Stabbing my in my rear end.

Sometimes I think like it would sure be nice
To have some big, roomy pockets
To put my gloves and
A little light into.

Sometimes I think what it must be like
Not to have a crotch strap
Strangling me.
Or what it must be like
Not to need to wrassel
With a stupid weight belt.

Just thinking about it makes me feel all cozy and warm and safe.

But no.
That would not be cool and techie.
So here I barely float
With my metal plate poking me
My head barely out of the water
With each wave depositing one gallon of salt water in my gullet
My sausage has no home
Much less a place for a nice little light
Or a place for some gloves
And the crotch strap strangling me.

I am rugged.
I am techie.
I will endure.
I will tough it out.
All for the sake of fashion.

Sometimes I just have to think that.
But, then, imagine
If there was world peace
And always perfect dive weather
Alas, I ask for too much I suppose.

Today, you pine for a jacket BCD. Tomorrow, an A.I. computer!

Snorkels? I have one. It is safely tucked away in my save a dive kit. I think it is yellow....
