We divers love to laugh. Usually at our selves first and then our dive buddies. We are a highly evolved social species. I often find that my dive stories are never as exciting as some others I have heard. So instead I like to share jokes. Good diving jokes are hard to find.

SOME OF THE BEST WRITERS WERE ALCOHOLICS.  LIKE, THERE WAS ERNEST HEMINGWAY, AND THAT OTHER GUY, AND OLD WHAT’S HIS FACE? THESE NEXT TWO CAME TO ME ONE MORNING OVER A VERY FILLING BREAKFAST; A BLOODY MARY, TWO MAMOSAS AND SOME WHISKEY MARMELADE. WITH BOOZE ON THE BRAIN, HERE ARE TWO BOOZIN' BLUFFS.

A regular statement posed an awful lot to me is, “you should be a comedian”.  Of course, the person stating that comment, I believe, is intending for it to be a compliment and not a sarcastic blow. But I have to laugh inside because I’m thinking to myself, “Okay, I thought I was.”  There’s no doubt that the best job that I have is being a cartoonist.  By being a cartoonist, I am tying in all 5 jobs that I really love and want to do.  Check it out.  As a cartoonist, I am an illustrator, writer, comedian, actor and a director. What a great gig!
