Ahhhh today arrived with a change of weather predicted. Today should be much improved as they are only calling for Rain Showers.

I have to work all weekend. As a KADUI Agency (Kinda Almost Diving Underwater Instructor) certified Wetsuit Washer (25 Star), most of my work is on the weekends. Upside is I am able to interact with nice people and my hands stay clean as well;-{)} Downside is I can not dive during the day.

More info on KADUI coming soon.

What have you folks got planned for this weekend?

John I am assuming your are talking about Bonaire - look at the web cams home page and it gives you the current water and air temps - it also will give you the archives. Basically its in the mid 80's during the day and mid to upper 70's at night (air temp). Water temp stays between 80 - 83. Very comfortable!!!

When are you going!?!?!? For how long!?!?!?

Hey, Tom do want to dive Saturday morning? The boss lady's working and all my dive buddies are busy. We could do a NH lake to cut down your commute, maybe the wall at Newfound or puppy bass in Wolfburo.

Duh, I should read before I open my mouth. Tom you have my condolences although it does beg the question why the hell you have to rinse gear when you dive in fresh water. I dive in fresh just to rinse my stuff.

This is interesting...I got 6 out of 10 right...Yikes!

Phishing, short for password harvesting fishing, is the luring of sensitive information, such as passwords and other personal information, from a victim by masquerading as someone trustworthy with a real need for such information. It is a form of social engineering attack.

You've probably seen emails that appear to come from legitimate organizations (Citibank and First USA are popular) that request account information to combat fraud or to update their records. But, did that email really come from your bank or is it a phishing attack? A recent study by Mail Frontier found that 28% of people were unable to determine whether an email was legitimate or counterfeit. The consequences for responding to one of these fake emails is generally fraudulent activity and could lead to full blown identity theft.

Mail Frontier created a short test that contains a mix of legitimate and counterfeit messages and asks you to identify each one. I encourage everyone to take the test to get a better idea of the differences between legitimate emails and phishing attacks.

Love you my Dawdling Diver buddy - I think that is the coolest name we cam up with!!!

marykelly.jpg

OF COURSE I knew it was a given!!! But you are right - Seb and Mary are the best couple to hang with - I knew once you got over to their house you would never want to leave. Mary had asked me how to convince you to come over - I did not think you would need convincing once you got there and I was right!!! I miss those 2 guys!!!

Can you tell I do not want to work today!?!?! ONly 1 call and that is done - I have mounds to do - but no motivation to do it!!!

Rusty - I was so scared and the whole time it was going on my brain kept telling me I was making a big mistake and that I really screwed up!!! Needless to saw my brain was wrong - it was the right thing to do and I never have regretted it!!!

The doc also gave me a stuffed fuzzy football to squeeze and boy did I ever!!! I think I left permanent hand marks on it!!!!

I'll keep all my fingers and toes crossed for you!!!
