    My Interesting Caribbean Vacation

    I don't think I ever had 40" of visibility here in the Western Sound. Maybe out in the Atlantic. But this diving is better because if you get eaten by something, you won't know what it is. :rolleyes:

    My Interesting Caribbean Vacation

    That seems like a good Idea. :confused: In the Caribbean, where I really find the diving as boring as watching paint dry there are very few sharks. I am not sure why but maybe the sight of tangs just puts them to sleep. If you do see a shark there, it is probably senile and looking for an...

    My Interesting Caribbean Vacation

    Of course I had to take some pictures of the most boring fish, tangs. They just follow the one in front of them going Doot Da Do, Doot Da Doot waiting for one to poop so they can all poop or eat, so they can all poop again. I can't believe people keep these things an they are by far the most...

    My Interesting Caribbean Vacation

    Last week we were invited back to Mustique for 7 days. Our closest friends came with us as they are also our SCUBA buddies and next door neighbors. We went there on the same tiny puddle jumper plane we went on last time. I could tell it was the same plane because I was in the last seat. (it...

    Everything I know in case I go Senile. (From 2014)

    Thanks, but it seems that soooo many people have problems and I am not sure why. I don't have any so I must be doing it wrong. :confused2:

    Everything I know in case I go Senile. (From 2014)

    This was also from this forum on my tank thread from 2011, but 93% of the people who read that are now in nursing homes so I am posting it again. If you read it then, you are a Geezer. It is common practice in Long Island to add zinc orthophosphate to the water supply to control corrosion in...

    You can buy an Aardvark if you like as long as you keep it in your house. :) I am not sure where to get Aardvark litter though :confused:

    Everything I know in case I go Senile. (From 2014)

    Thats enough about food and immune systems. As I said, I am posting this because I know, in time I will forget, and then, even if no one else reads this (and I am quite certain only me and the night watchman at the OTB office will see it) I may again come across it in 10 or 15 years in my...

    Everything I know in case I go Senile. (From 2014)

    Sorry, I forgot to hit post. I am getting old (er) and in a few years I am sure I will start forgetting many of the things I learned through trial and error, the things I picked up in the 50s 60s and 70s that is all but forgotten about now as parchment paper degrades over time. I am fortunately...

    Everything I know in case I go Senile. (From 2014)

    I posted this someplace 5 years ago and figured I have nothing to say today except build things in my Man Cave so I am Re-Posting it again. If it contains anything not PC, irritating, racist, not ethical, unrealistic, argumentative, political, religious or anything else that is considered...

    GFI outlet or not? Help please.

    Forget about a surge. I have been an electrician for 900 years and I have never seen a surge. Unless you live in Bangladeshi, or the planet Ork, forget about it. If that really concerns you, get a surge protector. I wouldn't unless your house regularly gets hit by lightning or you drink White...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    While I am waiting for my wife to get up so we can go to breakfast I figured I would ramble, or waste time because there are no new posts that I am interested in or should comment on for fear that I would be banned for my "Avant Garde" procedures. I have been up since 1:00, not on purpose but...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    That's me. :D Last night I was feeding my tank, (and sipping some Grand Marnier) and I saw this huge claw sticking out under a coral. I thought to myself, then I said it out loud OMG, what is that? At first I thought a Godzilla Larvae somehow survived my very strict quarantine routine (NOT)...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Diana the neuroma if from the surgery, the surgeon said it comes from cutting all the nerves over the knee cap. The surgery itself was from the Manly jobs. I don't like Caribbean diving mainly because I am spoiled by the South Pacific. There are few large animals in the Caribbean and the...
