A few days ago my brother Spencer ventured out on his first ocean dive. Here he is at Redondo Beach, California. In a few more days he will experience his first boat dive near the Catalina Islands; an area with a large great white population. He is only 16 years old yet soon he will be a Certified Open Water Scuba Diver.

Middle school is not as traumatic when you're an adult. And they don't even smell bad.
I teach on Thursday...dum dum DUM!
