So is the serial number on a rare red label?

Yeah, only a double hose vintage equipment diver would want to trade it for some duckbills, ha, ha, ..

In 20 years, Bryan will be making reproduction parts for people to rebuild their own Nemrods.

Will titanium have to be added to Nem's dive computer decompression algorithm

Let's hope not, that is scary,

We are glad to hear that you are doing well. Trust me you will do just fine with a little titanium in your leg. You will find however, that one leg will sink a little faster than the other and that you may have a tendancy to swim in a circle but that just makes you plan your dive better.
Currently, I have two titanium hips and one pin in the tibia that really drives the TSA nuts . I can't wait for the full body scans to start on me. They will feel sad when they see the titanium and then I am sure they will begin to laugh at my dicky -do- disease.
Seriously get better and we will certainly hoist one for you at Portage next week. By the way find a chamber and do some recompression therapy as that will help in the first three weeks of recovery. I did three chamber rides and was back diving on the second hip replacement in 8 weeks. Take care.

When I left from Sea Hunt I boarded in Gainsville, I had a three inch long fling blade Gerber in my pocket. I meant for it to be checked but with all the rushing around and all on the trip back, getting packed and everything I forgot to check it. So, there I am trying to open those damn peanuts and I reach for my knife and then realize that I ain't supposed to have a knife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! . So, I sit there a minute figuring, I could turn it to the stewardess, get banned from Flaridah yet again and banned from airline travel as well, then I thought, yeah, yeah, go into the bathroom and throw it in the trash and then thought better of that and then just decided to continue to innocently fumble with my peanuts and keep my knife in my pocket. So, there I was, at 30,000 feet with a knife that was sharp as a Ginsu, spring assist blade and this stupid look on my face and a bag of peanuts that defied my best efforts.

This should be stickied somewhere on here. This is freaking hilarious!

Airport security is just for show. Security experts call it "security theater."

This week I noticed that twice when I took Amtrak outa Union Station in DC, had to have your ID out and such, but not in Ottumwa or Fredricksberg Va. dontcha think maybe they should be MORE worried about passangers heading to DC instead of leaving it? BTW TSA in Chicago was a full clown car, which is why I took the train most of the way.

Anywho, get well soon Nemrod, the sealife in Florida miss you!

You never know what could have been going on.

Thanks Mudhog, I am feeling much better.

The Florida Manatees would like to disagree with this statement...

You know, I think a little Manatee Salve would be just the thing on these wounds to heal them up. VDH Special Healing Sauce, like the mask anti-fog, good for wounds, anti-fog, double duckbill lubrication, greasing wheels, double hose preservation, shining chrome, just anything .

You know, the Darwin Awards for stupid people, well, as a species the manatee should be given a Darwin Award!

The Shakers, a religious sect that does not allow sex, well, last I checked there were only six Shakers left (Shakers made Shaker style furniture etc), five old women and one 30 something guy, Darwin Award . I think manatees are something like that.
