    snorkel is the real comparative advantage...


    nothing is that hard when you can breathe, right fellas?


    it was actually a lot of fun...I was really charged all night cos it was a hell of a workout, like when you double your normal run one day for no reason...my right knee hurts a little from frog kicking so much when I got lazy.


    Fun as it was, due to my lack of free dinner, next time i will surely not make this mistake again :)

    video games are always funny...the screenshots show a bandgun that looks like theomer carbon gun, and the game cover has a bandless gun that looks about 55cm hahaha.



    still looks sick...anyone ever played the endless ocean game for wii...very cool scuba experience

    went off dania this afternnon for about 4 hours took some newbs and chased some bugs...came up empty except for a nice perfect condition lobster hotel i found...also i forgot my fins retard move....still swam out to the first reef and was able to have some decent bottom time, not that i have anything to show for it

    there is one other way that deserves to be mentioned...grilled, simply split the top of the tail and brush in liberal amounts of butter and grill on each side for 2-5 minutes depending on how many you are cooking :)


    the cold beers are still required


    nice catch btw guys

    I agree with Mister Griswold. So many people go from shooting rear-handle light euro guns... then enter bluewater with a 6-band mid-handle gun. Completely different aiming/handling/shooting... just a whole new beast.


    I've spent years testing & playing with lots of spearguns, but when it comes down to it... I'm moving to a select range of guns that I can pick up and be familiar with. (i.e. for wooden euros, I have 90cm, 110cm, 130cm seasniper euros - all rear-handle, 2 bands, 9/32 shaft) It's nice to pick up a gun and know it will shoot where you want it to, then be able to pick up another size of the same gun and not miss a beat. Confidence in your equipment is very important.


    this is the best comment in this thread....while familarity is key, I have to say, that the familirity is knowing where the shot will go when fired, the confidence comes earlier when deciding to shoot.


    to me the biggest thing is knowing yes or no, i can get this shot....actually making the shot is second

    I'd like a pic of ANYTHING hau...hint hint



    hahah just messing with you....but seriously, pics man....do i need to come over and teach you how to upload them to your computer and then post them? I will if you need it, just PM me or openly ask for lame tech advice :)

    that is an incredible story about your old man....hats off to him, that is the real american dream, has nothing to do with America and everything to do with the amazing people who find their ways to her shores, inspiring.

    i am just playing devil's advocate here, but maybe there is an evolutionary component here. perhaps the trend twords farming and animal cultivation has triggered a new evolutionary jump in the brains of some non-hunters? perhaps, just as those who were traditionally the fastest were the ones who escaped the lions, now the ones who chose not to risk themselves in a hunt are the ones who live?


    you all know this is not my stance, just offering a thought

    this is a very interesting story that actually resonnates double for me. I have looked into what would be require to pass the BAR exam and practice law in Israel. I am a fully licensed atty here and the process of going there is rediculous, Iwould have to pass two language proficiency exams and then 9 separate two subject exams, all in hebrew. This is after learning their laws.


    I am not trying to compare my situation to that of these doctors, just that i am familiar with the idea of being licensed in one country and not being able to be in another.


    the issue here is very complicated. on the one hand it is awful to hear about neurosurgeons working at gas stations, on the other, we have medical boards to keep incompetent doctors out of our hospitals. i think the part of this story that really bothers me is the politicization of the process that keep competent medical practitioners out.


    there are so many CUban professionals who are relegated to crap jobs here rather than their chosen and trained profession. Just today I dealt with a Cuban electrical engineer who had done the equivalent of a phd on electromagnetism and he currently does freelance work repairing his neighbor's computers?!?! where is the justice there?


    i don't know what the solution is, i dont like unlicensed doctors working but i also think it is a tremendous waste and shame to think about the numbers of these medical practitioners doing nothing with their talents.


    i think spanish language classes in US medicine are the first place to start...let them first relearn the material and then learn the language.


    killing them seems allowed, just not torturing them for fun, which i agree with. no animal should be tortured for enjoyment
