    I always carry a brush and small collapsible rake to "prepare" access as needed.

    I expect by next week the steps will be brushed off.

    That brings back painful memories of December 2003. When I went down, my doubles landed on my foot that was behind me.

    (This is why I now keep a bottle of Vicodin in the dive trailer.)

    Nope. When I fell, it was the worst pain I have ever experienced. (But I made the dive.) That evening when it started throbbing the ibuprofen I had didn't do a lot of good.

    A couple years ago I had a root canal and my dentist wrote me a prescription. I ended up not using any of them, so they are now in my first aid kit.

    They don't last forever, you know. Now you are going to have a problem with druggies breaking into your trailer, after posting that on the internet

    I am currently still nursing a (slightly) bruised ego...but mainly a broken BUTT since Easter weekend....I can say I would not recommend breaking your butt...es no bueno!!! BUT, I knew I was going down before I fell...laughed all the way down and can honestly say I held my own and dived the rest of the day...it was later that was a real PITA!!!
    Y'all be safe now, ya hear??

    I'm sure they'll bypass the $35,000 worth of scuba gear to get to ten dollars' worth of pills.

    True, but they will wreck the trailer getting in, leaving it open for non druggies to steal all your dive gear

    It's several years old - do you think it has either lost its potency or is dangerous? I can tell you when I thought my foot was broken I would like to have had some four-year-old Vicodin...
