Scubaland Underwater Pumpkin Contest Winners

Scubaland Adventures dive club held it’s annual underwater pumpkin carving contest at Windy Point at Lake Travis. For those of you that didn’t attend, you missed alot of fun. For those of you that don’t dive - here’s the deal. Divers take a pumpkin underwater at night and have to carve it. The most creative pumpkin wins. Sounds easy right! Not. It’s a great test of dive skill as you’re having to do this at night and have to work well with your buddy. The pumpkin is positively buoyant meaning it wants to float to the surface so your buoyancy skills are in play. Now, combine that with the fact that you are using a big sharp knife around air hoses…and well, you can see the skill involved.

And of course, when you get back to the surface, that’s when the 2nd part of the fun began. Alot of folks camped and partook of a few adult beverages!

9 Terms Women Use

1. Fine : This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2. Five Minutes : If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3. Nothing : This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

4. Go Ahead : This is a dare, not permission. Don’t Do It!

5. Loud Sigh : This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6. That’s Okay : This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That’s okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7. Thanks : A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you’re welcome.

8 . Whatever : Is a women’s way of saying  GO F@!K <mailto:F@!K> YOURSELF!

9. Don’t worry about it, I got it : Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking ‘What’s wrong?’ For the woman’s response refer to #3.

*Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology.

*Send this to all the women you know to give them a good laugh, cause they know it’s true.

Oh geez…..it’s nerd day at Vista Ridge

Hannah is so Jill’s daughter.  She does nerd better than most - dating back to the 6th grade when she won the nerd contest at school.  I’ve got a feeling that she and her buds have a chance today.  Just so you know - it’s “Educate the Eagles” day since Vista Ridge is playing the Georgetown Eagles tonight.  Anyway, here are a few pictures with the rest loaded in the personal photo galleries.   Just click a picture and you’ll be directed there.

Just compare - 6 years ago and today!
