Warning about scuba diving...

[Deadweight]

...Have taken this up and have completed PADI OW.
The warning is that your life will never be the same ever again.
...TV becomes boring, unless there's something dive related.
...You end up on scubaboard.
...If you dive at the weekend you feel great until the following wednesday.
...Monday morning at work you sit their smiling to yourself.
...You will meet more people from entirely different backgrounds than you ever did.
...You will wish you had done it years ago.
If you're thinking about it - do it.
Kind regards
Deadweight.

I like it. Couldn't agree more.

Well said!

You forgot to mention that you're sitting, smiling to yourself, and dead broke, though . . .

I agree, today I completed my OW certification, and I can't believe I didn't do this years ago.

Yup, you got it. Me? Every time I go to the water cooler the bubbles in the bottle trigger momentary hypnosis. I space out for a few seconds... British Columbia... Cebu... Cayman Islands... Then I shake it off and go back to work <sigh>.

A smile on my face and a tear in my eye. All happy.
