Only a cruel wife would deny her husband his right to have all the SCUBA toys he wants.
He gets what he wants. Spoiled he is....spoiled I tell ya!
Nah, he still doesn't have that dry suit he's been wanting. It was either that or a bike this year. He's already got more than 800 miles on his new bike.

National Scuba Appreciation Day?
LOL...I always appreciate the cost of SCUBA.
Does there have to be a reason?
I am exactly 20 1/2 years older than Purza's daughter.
i've just signed up for rhapsody, the online subscription music service, and i have to say, it is pretty cool.
for those that are unfamiliar with the service, in a nutshell it is this:listen to any music you want streaming to your computer from their collection of 1 million songs and 60,000 artistsmonthly fee is $9.95purchase tracks to burn to cd for $0.79 each.
first, i have to say that i have never been a fan of real networks, and had i known that rhapsody was their invention before i downloaded, frankly, i may have let that prejudice affect me.
Is that too much to ask? :P
Whatever works for you. Sounds limiting. I just want noise. Usually, around here, noise is not a problem.

Geez Doc...you're picky. If I can have some sort of music blaring in my ears while I run, I'm happy. But not Tenacious D. It makes me laugh to hard to run and people look at me funny.
Country Woman, I didn't know that about the Netherlands! Happy day off!
Oh Doc, 05-05-05 has nothing to do with June 6, 2006 silly.
i have noticed that every time i go to a local store, the checkout girl always says, "have a blessed day" as i walk away after the transaction.
has anyone else come across this, and am i the only one who finds it annoying?
it seems to me that people who do this are "show boating" their religion... basically blowing a horn and saying: "look at me!
It would annoy me but I don't think I've ever heard it.
At Disneyworld, they wish you a "magical day".

.....................i received an sms from mrs ozzie last night informing me that ozzie is having an extremely risky operation on wednesday morning, 8am australian time.
i can't give more details at this stage as to the procedure due to confidentiality but i can assure you it is going to be dangerous!
mrs ozzie said that it had to be done despite the risk.. so if all of us here could take a moment tomorrow and send positive thoughts.
Best wishes (((((Ozzie and Mrs Ozzie)))))

the weight control issue is strange in the sense that statistically most people that lose weight later on more or less quickly regain it, and all the money spent on weight loss gets wasted.
i've had this problem for many years trying to lose 13kg (about 30lb)going from 95 to 82kg (210 to 180lb)the normal weight for my height and body frame.
i lose a lot of weight even reaching the target but then regain it so i'm always ranging somewhere between 95 and 82kg.
Mom said:
So far I've lost 22+ pounds in 4 months. I know it isn't a lot, but it's consistently going down.
Wrong! It is a lot. Perfect amount to have lost over 4 months. You are doing an amazing job!
Hey there Mega! I'm wondering if you are eating enough.
My energy tanks severely and my concentration is not as good when I eat sensibly and cut my portions. Right now I'm eating very small meals spread throughout the day, five or six times.
How small is very small?
I eat a cup of cereal (literally) at 7am. I eat a multigrain english muffin with 2 slices Canadian bacon and one egg with some grated cheese between 8:30 and 9:30. I usually will have more to eat around 11-11:30. Typically a protein shake (1 cup soy milk with frozen berries and a scoop of protein powder) OR a cup of yogurt with granola. I eat lunch sometime within the next hour or two. Sandwich, leftovers...piece of fruit. I snack at 3....just had about three carrots and some cut up red bell pepper. We'll have dinner about 6...tonight it's grilled Mahi Mahi with herbed rice and a BIG salad. We usually eat grilled meat with rice/potatoes/beans and a big salad - at least two or three cups of greens. I never cook veggies because no one likes them cooked. We eat them raw. Since we have such nice fruit in season, I'll make a fruit salad with dinner. I might have a low fat, low sugar fudgesicle around 8pm.
Maybe a sample of Steve's diet would be better:
Breakfast: same egg sandwich that I eat but with two eggs instead of one.
Lunch: (this is what I typically pack each day) one grilled chicken breast on bone/skinless, 1/2 red bell pepper and 1 cup of broccoli dipped in about 1/2-3/4 cup hummus, 1/4 cup dry roasted almonds, zone bar 1/2 gallon iced green chai tea sweetened with stevia.
Dinner: same as mine...a larger portion of meat
He usually will grab more almonds while he's waiting for dinner and if he's going to the gym or on a bike ride, he will make up an Endurox smoothie with frozen berries for after.
You should be drinking a protein/carb shake or something before you workout. Then have a recovery drink after...must include protein. I either have a protein shake or endurox or yogurt with granola after the gym or a run. You need to give your body fuel for the workout and something to aid the recovery. I realize this isn't news to you...just felt compelled to write it.
Do you still have our email? Steve did a dive in The Living Seas aquarium at Epcot a couple weeks ago. You guys have dives to discuss!
