No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

If you just have to do the dives, then there were only four and that is two days. Strike the weeks of classes and pool work that way.

Yeah, PADI vs other. I can't recall the names of other but yes.

I'd don a wetsuit to play with otters...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Whee! C'est mon plan.

You may have a slight fixation, dear.

Pot. Kettle.

And, yeah, I might.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Do you mean beyond PADI vs. the other guys (SSI?)? Do I need to get more granular than that?

That's what I meant.

I want to go scuba diving again. I'm not sure if my natural breathing apparatus will let me any more.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

For the divers here -- are you PADI or the other thing? Any distinctions/preferences?

Perkins, give it a shot. I mean, you should find out.

Anyone watch NUMB3RS and catch the preview for next week? Do you think that one of the agents we know is going to buy it? For some reason, I've suspected the bullish younger guy wasn't going to make it to the end of the season.

PADI. Now I can't recall the reasons for it, though there were reasons at the time.

Numb3rs is cued. I might fall asleep watching.

I think I am sleepy.

Also the cat is in the closet again. I can see hangers moving.

I am PADI. I do need to go to an ENT and see if I can dive still.

I am in the middle of Numb3rs. I may go to sleep before I finish it.

NUMB3RS: Frisbee golf! There's a course about a mile from my house. Weird.

Hey, I'm watching Numb3s, too. But I am so tired, I don't think I'm going to make it.

Spooks season finale wore me out. The show just rocks.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

yeah, I was thinking they'd probably get Andy Dick.

He's already done full frontal on an awards show. No need to see that again.

Perkins, gmail is there. I'll reply soonish.
