Brag- Scuba Class

[Carolina Pirate]

I won a gift certificate to get my Scuba Certification this past weekend

Brag: $5 raffle = $370 course w/ all equipment provided
Beat: Never been diving before so I have no clue what to expect
Brag: Never been diving before so I'm really looking forward to it (the final dive is at a shipwreck off the NC coast)
Beat: Its getting colder outside and I'm going to wait until spring to take the classes
Var: I need to get a tan b/c I am so white...

what shipwreck are you going to?

I'm certified, it involved some minor classroom education and goofing around in a pool. It was pretty fun.

Do you have to go inside the shipwreck?

in early grade school, they did fundraiser raffles. some people cut the hole's in their tissue boxes a little too big and you could peak into the box to see how many people had entered. Theoretically it had some huge EV, but this was long before E-Bay, and the resale value on a Schwinn wasn't very high.
