o sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean,
to ride on the crest of a wild raging storm
To work in the service of life and living,
in search of the answers of questions unknown
To be part of the movement and part of the growing,
part of beginning to understand,
Aye Calypso the places you've been to,
the things that you've shown us,
the stories you tell
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit,
the men who have served you so long and so well

Good morning, everyone! Sunny skies and we're packing once again. Take-off at 3pm this afternoon. But first a breakfast of really tasteless microwaved rice and some left-over mystery meat. Because we're off this morning we didn't make rice last night, and opten instead for the stuff they sell off the shelves in the supermarket. Already cooked... just nuke for two minutes. We keep a few in the cupboard just for such emergencies. At least the tea is good East India Company's "Assam" fresh out of the new package!
I got a call last night to show up at the marina in Guam tonight, for a quick photo shoot for an ad campaign. At least this time my wife can come with me and work as my dive buddy/shooting assistant holding the reflector for me. Shouldn't take more than 2-3 dives to get it the way we need... assuming the marine life do their part... but there is a shallow reef (12m to the top of the reef and only 16m to the sea floor) that is absolutely teeming with micro-critters, and that's what is being called for. Breathing Nitrox we can stay down almost as long as we want!
So, to all... have a nice weekend! See you again on Monday!

I wish I could do that. I had a friend who was just like that... He could smoke once a week or once a year, and never had a problem. I can't do it. Just one, and I'll be back to a pack and a half of unfiltered menthol within two weeks...

I've gotten to the point where the mere odor of tobacco smoke in houses and on clothes makes me gag
|
'Old' smoke and ashtrays make me gag too, but not fresh. I especially love the smell of a good quality pipe tobacco. I can stand with my nose in a tobacco shop all day just breathing in... But sometimes someone walks past me on the street or in a shop and the stench of old nicotine is so strong it almost knocks me over. I can't believe that I once smelled that way myself. I'm amazed that non-smokers even let me into their houses!
