Is anything else the size of a coke can?

Why are they no pictures of Thia hookers. Come on Ryan, lets have some class on this Blog.

I agree. It’s all you ever talk about, yet you decide to post pictures of puppies… who cares about puppies? LETS SEE SOME HOOKERS!
Photos of Ashleigh and Moira would raise the perceived value of your blog. Just sayin’.
Pretty cool so far, though. Good read.
I like the puppy photo
Celebratory tequila shot.
Ashleigh’s the one in the blue bikini.
I guess this should have gone before that one. This was during the race.
The two guys were the ones who got their instructors. The girl in the middle got her IDC staff, as well.
Those are the shark and the alligator, as well.
Later that night, on walking street, Cameron, the new instructor- drunk- giving CPR to his alligator in an ambulence.
This was pretty funny.
Today was rather eventful.
Yesterday, one of the interns, Rich, was driving down the street of the shop on his motorbike, when a girl (man?) jumped out into the street. He swerved, and avoided the hooker, but accidentally knocked over a buddah shrine in front of the whorehouse. Classy, right? He stopped, cleaned it up, paid for the owner to get a new one, appologized a ton, etc. Well, that wasnt enough.
He even said today Karma was going to bite us in the ass.
I did a wreck penetration dive. It was a lot of fun, in a lot of current. After the dive, we’re on the boat drifting around surface marker buoys (with tech divers below, holding on, decompressing.)
Roger, the tech instructor. The tech INSTRUCTOR. The tech instructor misweighted himself and shot to the surface from 4.5 meters 24 minutes early on his decompression stops. Divers went over to him and gave him all of the deco gases we had on the boat in efforts for him to not get bent.
Divers came back relaying messages and such. The two other tech divers, who he was supposed to be with (but wasnt, because he’s an idiot) surfaced, only to hear he’s having problems. They give him whats left of their [more effecient, at this point] deco gas, and about 45 minutes later, comes to the surface. He says he’s fine, and his computer confirms, but for good measure- he’s put on oxygen at the surface. Three minutes later he’s drinking a coke and eating a sandwich.
Fucking mind boggling.
Since he said he was fine, he didnt get lifted out, and the day went on as planned- except a bit more on edge.
We went for our second dive, but not on the wreck because the current picked up way too much. Instead, we did a drift dive, which was a lot of fun. We didnt do any finning at all, except one point. We saw a turtle sitting on the seabed just hanging out, so we swam against the current to hang out with it for a minute. This was a bad idea, because for the minute we stayed with it, and about 5 minutes after, we were breathing hard as fuck. Our dive lasted about 12 minutes than it should have. Whatever, it was still fun.

How does the computer work? Does it monitor blood gases, or something?
Sorry for being an asshat.

Hahahaha. No worries, mate.
Its a dive computer that calculates the figurative amount of nitrogen in one’s blood system. Nitrogen is an inert gas that builds up in your blood system which causes problems because as you ascend (and therefore decrease pressure) the gas expands. If you ascend too fast, it’s basically the same as if you were to open a bottle of soda too fast.
The computer’s decompression algorithm’s the figurative amount of nitrogen in your bloodstream, then decides how much decompression you’re going to require to ascend safely without getting a decompression hit. (The bends.)
Normally, tech divers plug depths, gas blends, and times into software that gives them a dive profile. If they follow that, they’ll be well into a safe pressure group to ascend while not getting a deco hit. Since this one guy Roger botched his decompression profile, he completely shot to shit his decompression times. Thus, when he ascended to the surface, he extended his deco time because the absence of water pressure made the nitrogen bubbles expand to be too big that is deemed safe. Thats why he had to descend and decompress for longer.
Very long story short:
If you were to shake up a 20oz coke bottle, and open it very fast, it would fizz up and explode out of the bottle.
Replace “shake up” with “dive deep [and absorb a lot of nitrogen” and “open it very fast” with “ascend too fast” and then “fizz up and explode out of the bottle” with “bubbles expand in your bloodstream and block bloodflow to required organs.”
…As a sidenote, if one were to get decompression illness(decompression sickness [touched upon above], along with a lung expansion injury) you’d most likely cough up foamy blood coming from your lungs.
…Gross.

Thanks for the info, dude!
hey yo ryan… in that pic stop trying to flex so much (chorney asked where the hell ur stomach went), im loving the blog, start doing some thai hookers, spice this shit up…

Shouldn’t you bee in class right about now?
Oh come on, this is so damn cute…
Got any underwater pics for us?
BTW, great thread.

Who are the two girls? The little puppy ain’t all that could be construed as cute… names could help us connect with the cuteness a little better.
Percocet is fun!
Who let Ryan fall off the front page!
heads are gonna roll.
