How’s that for a post title? I’m pretty sure that I’m still hallucinating!
I’m up on my feet now. Went out and ran some errands, visited a few friends, and most important of all… Any guesses?
If you guessed went to the ocean/dive shop, you win a prize!
Yup, a red-hot spanking. How’s that for a prize? Guess it depends who you ask.
So, I’ve been working on some Rumba music. I love Latin music, but because so many Latin ballroom dances can’t be done to anything else, I am taking liberties where I can. Just so happens the Rumba, and it’s sensual feel, took me back 5+ years.
There’s a fabulous song by Terence Trent D’Arby, called “Sign Your Name”… happens to be on the same album with his one-hit-US-wonder song “Wishing Well”. Great Rumba tune. Another oldie but goodie – (2004? – not so old) “Closer” by Goapele. Maybe one of my faves of all time.
Anyway, I’ve counted myself silly, making sure the bpm stayed in the mid 20’s. Got about 10 good songs, did a little magic on all of my music, and voila – a new, original Rumba CD. I’m not quite well, but I’m going to hit the studio again in the morning.
Wherever you are, have a good “one”… (Dunno if it’s day/night, US/UK/Asia)

Hey, I found your blog because I’m taking a vacation with my wife next week to Cebu. We’ve never been scuba diving before but we want to give it a try. Any suggestions on shops we should use or dives we should make?
Cheers!
Michael

Hi Michael!
There is a form (on the right) where you can contact me directly. I would suggest that you use that to let me know where you are staying and how long you will be here.
Since you have never been diving before, you will have to take a 1/2 lesson – called Discover Scuba. If you go to an operator that will let you bypass this… RUN!!! They are not safe. Safety is the key to a good dive experience.
I would be happy to hook you up with my dive shop. They are the best! I’m training for my Instructors Certification there. I will check on the cost of the Discover Scuba course… pretty sure it includes the dive.
Honestly, there isn’t a bad place to dive around here.
Where are you from? That can influence your experience here and what you would enjoy during your stay… to a certain degree. I would be happy to give you any info that can help.
Thanks – look forward to hearing from you!!
Jules
