Is that the same guy that was so sure the Hillary would win and that the 2nd

You mean the guy who thinks bragging about vacations makes him better, right
or sane?

The guy that tosses the Americans that ensure "he" (Yahweh forgive me) and
his life; free, cheap and safe, under the bus?

Yes, that guy.

You know, the guy who quoted poll after poll after poll, only to *lose*.

*AGAIN*

Yeah; that guy.

That's twice in one thread, a "hero worship" thread to boot.

You really are jealous, aren't you? What a hoot. Wait until you see

Hillary isn't out yet. She's doubled her lead against Obama in PA.
That's "gaining momentum" as far as I'm concerned. Michigan and
Florida may still play a role.

This contest will no doubt eventually be decided by the
superdelegates, who hopefully will be smart enough to go with the
candidate that can defeat McCain, i.e. the future Madam President. I
sincerely hope that they dig up even more dirt on Obama between now
and the convention.

Maybe I should send her another check.

Send the check to me - I'll be sure to get it to her - promise!

I looked at your pictures from Palau - they were really good. The color
and lack of back splatter were great. I really enjoyed the pictures of
the interaction with the dolphins. I have swam with a wild dolphin in
either St Thomas or St Maarten - can't remember without reviewing my log
book. But it was a dive site in which a barge which had been sunk - the
barge had been used as a military barrack in WWII - I think it was St
Maarten - very cool experience.

I have a nephew living on Kwajelein - Marshall Islands - he and his wife
took up Scuba - they are loving it 0 he has taken some great photos

Funny you should mention that. Before the Florida primary, Hillary was quite
clear that she could care less about my state because we would have no
deligates. She changed her tune almost immediately when she beat Obama here.
I suppose that kind of inconsistency is common among lawyers. It's
considered dishonest by everyone else.

>> Maybe I should send her another check.

Sounds like a good idea, a much better one that your normal preference for
programs that spending everybody else's money.

Joe that sounds like it might be the Navy Barges, two vessels lying
very close to each other in about 45 feet just outside St. Thomas
harbor. They were used as enlisted men's quarters at the submarine
base during WWII. They were scuttled after the war, but the location
was so shallow the Navy went back to blow them up to reduce their
profile. I remember it as a pretty fun dive, but I didn't see any wild
dolphins there. Lucky you!

Thanks George - that is where it was. It turned out to be vary cool
dive for me. I had booked the dive myself (I was on a cruise) The dive
boat had 4 people on it - the captain, the dive master, and one female
diver. She aborted her dive about 5 minutes in - the dive master let me
go anywhere and everywhere until I was out of air. The dolphin played
with me (????) for about 20 minutes - I tried to grabbed onto the dorsal
fin - once got about a 3 second ride.

St Maarten sucked - cattle boat - scheduled thru the cruise line. I try
to schedule my own dives - but was not familiar with St Maarten or St
Thomas - someone here gave me the dive operation in St Thomas - that
referral turned out great

I have never heard anything good about diving at St. Maarten. I think
it's notable that Explorer Ventures runs a liveaboard in that area
that docks in St. Maarten but doesn't dive until Saba.

Do you remember who you dove with in St. Thomas? I have gone out with
three different operators there while on business trips four years
ago. I found them all very accommodating. One was Admiralty Dive
Center, which picked me up at the hotel and took me out even though I
was the only diver. I also dove with Blue Island Divers, where I once
found myself the only diver besides an instructor and his OW students.
They let me do a solo dive. And the operation at Secret Harbor Resort
actually held the boat for me for 30 minutes so I could get there from
Charlotte Amalie by cab after another trip was canceled. I was not
overly impressed with St. Thomas diving, but I can't say enough good
about the operators I used.

I've used Blue Island Divers as well. First trip out I was the only customer
on the boat.
I was impressed that they still went out.
