What's there to be afraid of? It's just water. :naughty: NorCal20, there are a lot of unemployed surfers here in Hawaii for that exact reason. Sometimes it's hard to go to work when you know it's pumping. But the good thing is, there's almost always good waves to be had, every day so I...

Half Moon Bay, Pacifica and Santa Cruz? Brrrr! You guys are nuts. But then again, I did grow up in NorCal. I lived in Marin and surfed mostly between Bolinas and Rockaway beach as I grew up. By the time I was in high school I was riding Mavericks (before I even knew it was called...

You might be onto something here as I've been bit by a shark twice... :hmm: Probably doesn't help that I like to ride them. Don't try this at home, kids. -Paul

Thanks BajaGal. I'm a bit of a photo slut (sponsors need exposure after all or I don't' get my free stuff) so I have plenty to go around. :lol: I also Stand-Up Paddle. Those boards turn even worse than longboards do.... Aquaman on his way to winning the 2009 Deaf World Surfing...

Indeed Reba. I do wonder if it's legal to pile triplets into a sidecar though... :D I'm sure the hospital staff would really love that as we all headed for home after delivery. :giggle: -Paul

I sold my last 2 bikes before I moved overseas... 2 days before my flight left, at a massive loss. For the uneducated, this is a turbocharged GSXR-1000 I had built in Ohio. A month before my flight left. I've also owned 2 other Hayabusas, a couple of CBR 900+'s, a Bandit 12, Duke...

We got our first winter swell a couple of weeks ago and headed out to do some tow-in surfing. I grabbed my GoPro Hero HD and captured some footage before the battery died. We stayed out towing for 7 hours. Good times. :D Be sure to select 1080p for max quality if your connection is fast...

Longboards are pretty easy to learn on. That's why all the surf lessons here in Hawaii start off their clients on longboards. They are slow, stable, hard to tip over and easy to paddle. The bad thing is that they become hard to use when you need speed and turning performance. Imagine...

Me! Me! I live in Hawaii! :wave: NorCal, I don't know how you can live in NorCal after visiting Hawaii. I also grew up in NorCal, visited Hawaii once, and several years later I made the move. Haven't regretted it since. 6-10' Hawaiian NW swell at 20 seconds on Sunday. I'll be out at...

Thank you all for the congratulations... I think. Neither of us have any family here in Hawaii so we will be flying solo for the most part with some help from friends... Hopefully! 3X the diapers. Geesh. :eek3: 3x the car seats, 3x the carriers, 3x the cribs... Shoes, pacifiers, oh, I...

:shock::shock::shock: I'm trying to find other deaf couples who have had multiples. We are trying to figure out the baby monitor/light alarm maze... It's turning out to be more complicated than I thought it would be. :hmm: Are we alone? -Paul

Homemade food is a bit dicey and best avoided. A low value ($20 or under) gift card for a nearby store/resturant/coffee shop is probably the best thing to get, especially for newer teachers who make less than the older teachers do, and often have to pay out of their pockets for your...

ohsoez doesn't list any upcoming events happening in Florida whatsoever. Just some old dates that have come and gone. Anything happening in the next few days? I fly out there (Ft Lauderdale) for a wedding tomorrow and will be staying for a few days. I'm bringing my free-diving gear and...

Nice, nice... So your fist modification is to get the speed up to 8.5 mph eh... That's a very nice step up from your old wheelchair. Be sure to make a donation to the local police booster group for a "don't write me a speeding ticket" sticker. What about these rims? Are you going for...

So small... I'd be embarrassed to hang something of that size on the back of my Ford pick-up. Here's what I'd do instead - Go to a thrift store, pick up a couple of used bowling balls for a few bucks... :giggle: -Aquaman

Not required, but I strongly recommend it. I sent you a PM about that, Woofy. -Aquaman

Have you ever done any bona fide research papers? You should know that you can't just throw out a generic "put into words the frustration experienced by deaf students at the hands of hearing educators and administrators" plea/question. You need to state your questions clearly and specifically...

I don't think they knew about the pillars being there. Even if there were signs, being behind a large bus or lorry (what trucks are called over there) would make it difficult to see the signs. -Aquaman

I got the numbers from a popular WRX forum a few years ago when the WRX first came out here in the states, and they were reaffirmed by several tuners with posted pictures of the actual dyno read-outs. One of them might have been Cobb - I used to live up in northern CA and they were big up there...

I log in on here. :eek3: I think I'm spending too much time here... -Aquaman
