    Default Ouch. With friends like that...

    You guys might know this story, but I just found this article from the early 70's about a recovery at Little River that Tom Mount did.

    Three open water divers in Little River. Apparently one had knife wounds in his belly where one of his buddies stabbed him to take his air.

    That's pretty brutal...

    On the good side, blank 8 tracks were 88 cents at K Mart!!

    Interesting. Was he stabbed because he tried to take someone else' air?

    Or was he stabbed for his air? It sounds like the first one, since he was further to the opening than the others.

    Looks like I need to replace one of the trilobites with something more effective for self-defense.

    That's why you always call your buddy "chum".
