Scuba Diving with Club Med

Clint - 02 Nov 2005 18:10 GMT
My first scuba diving vacation after I got certified years ago was to a Club
Med resort that had an intensive dive program.  Some divers may not like the
idea of going to an all inclusive such as Club Med while others may
appreciate the everything on-site aspect of it.  I wrote an article about my
experience at the Club Med in Turks and Caicos from a scuba diver's point of
view so that others may decide for themselves whether Club Med is a vacation
option or not.  See
http://www.freespiritactivewear.com/scubaartclubmeddiving.htm for the
article if interested.

Hmmm.

1) Unsolicited, initiating a thread, i.e. no one even asked about diving at
Club Med.

2) Contains no content itself, only a link to content which coincidentally
happens to be located on a commercial site belonging to the poster.

3) Cross-posted.

Could it be spam?  You decide.

And what's gonna happen when Clint runs out of mundane dives in his mundane
logbook?  Is he going to make up dives to "report" on via link to his
commercial website, or will there ever be an end to his spam?

He'll hire Bob Ling to write about his mundane dives.

 Morning!

 Apropos of nothing whatsoever, would you happen to be in a remotely
informative mood today?

He used to be one of the most frequent divers I know.  These days, he seems
to be taking more cruise ship trips than dive boat trips, but I believe he's
still diving.  Bob was, and I assume still is, a competent and experienced
recreational diver.

Yes, I knew that he used to be quite a prolific diver but nowadays it seems
he is merely a prolific troll.  And along with that he spends most of his
time reflecting back on his past . . .and then quoting.

Perhaps he should spend some time cleaning whatever sticky substance seems
to be afflicting the caps lock on his keyboard...

 Hey, at leady he -remembers- what he said, and doesn't try to spin or deny
it.

 I don't think he's singularly infected.

 I missed you.

 Thanks for the manuals. :-)

The singularity is on his end. He's hoping you'll protect him from
everyone else.

Hope you found them useful.

If only it has something about guns in it, it would be THE perfect
catalyst for a long-running, REC.SCUBA thread.

Does Club Med offer possibilities to do some target practicing?

There...
