Just when I thought this LIST is moribund ... well maybe it is, judging
from the posters and the SCUBA content. :-) I'll pitch in for my OT
contribution of this New Millennium.

The LATTER. Just keep the video FLOATING (that's about as Ob Scuba
as this post will get). The posts generated by that alone will be
more than the total Scuba-SE posts in the past 4 years ... before
the "refugees" moved in last year. Just look, in this round
of "Bob's video" alone, it lasted TWO millenniums! :-)

Which reminded me I still have Viv's video to pass on to the
Skinny Trumpetfish (aka Jeff) in Chattanooga. He also forgot to pick
up several other videos I had intended for him to look at, like
Cocos Island, Fuuniest Fishes, etc.
If we start passing videos around, then the SE of this list could be
changed to "Scuba-video Exchange" the acronym SE. I am sure you're
all overwhelmed and choked up by this brilliant idea of mine. ;-)
Now onto some REAL OT (that's OFF Topic for the unwashed) stuff.
We spent the LAST DAY of 2000 and the FIRST DAY of 2001 in BOTH
our homes, in SC and TN. :-)
We made an impromptu trip to Chattanooga New Year's Eve, hauling
some stuff to complete her new home office. We had an early NY
Eve dinner in Atlanta before finishing the trip to Chattanooga.
We unloaded our van, installed Sue's office stuff just in time to
watch the Time Square Ball drop. Sue was so anxious to welcome
the New Year that she broke the cork of our bottle of Napoleon
Cognac while I sipped my po-man's concoction of 1 part Tsing-Tao
beer and 5-part diet Sprite. :-)))) So that's how we spent a
quiet 12/31 in both SC and TN.
On New Year's Day, we left TN early not sure of road conditions
because of the SNOW that started that morning. We got back to
SC just in time to see the Tigers (Clemson's over-rated football
team) getting stomped by Virginia Tech on TV (as everyone expected).
That's how we spene 1/1/01 in both TN and SC.
The final OT are a few pics to show the site of a pending mini-NEDfest
where the Nassau Groupers, the Skinny Trumpetfish and mate, and the
Wallaces (Strike's favorite Triggerfish?) are threathened to be held
at some indefinite time in the future. The nurse-shark tail-puller
has been mentioned as a possible candidate. Hey, this is Ob SCUBA
afterall. :-)
At any rate, my SCUBA webpage (which was constructed in less than
30 minutes with the help of Bjorn and the Yahoo Wizard) has been
moribund since birth. :-) A HTML Idiot that I am, I managed to
remember how to put some PICs in the toolbox there ... soooo ... here
are some isolated jpgs to show the Feeesh Aquarium in the making.

Ob scuba: If you look VERY carefully, there is a Rio de Janeiro
Piranha (twin to the one I gave Jeff) in front of the Ironwood
Nurse Shark on the fireplace mantle.
This is one-half of one bathroom :-)

If any of you happen to pass by Choo Choo City while WE are there
(which is quite rare these days :-)), you're invited to drop by to
visit the Feeesh Aquarium as well as the famous Chattanooga
Aquarium which boasts to be the largest Aquarium of FRESH water
fishies.
Adios, Ciao, Au revoir, Auf Wiedeersehen, etc.
