My understanding is, that pictures of the ocean from the air, show sharks are everywhere.

However, the padawans' kitteh is usually evil enough to have me awake by 2....the very reason I'm awake now.

Gotcha! Well, if you're awake, hopefully you'll catch it!

There are thousands of sharks out there, many more than people know. I have seen them on almost every dive I have done off of Jacksonville. However whale sharks are significantly more rare, and so are great whites. I haven't personally seen either one, but I have been out and heard reports of both.

eta: Don't forget your dive board and write on it and hold it up to the web cam

during certain times of the year, that is correct

My friends have decided that in order to be able to tell it's me I have to toss the shocker at the camera!



If I could bring my slate with me I would! The only personal gear I am allowed to bring is my perscription dive mask.
