N with her colorful camera pouch:-)

N with a camera bag made for her sometime back:-) Another ego-tripping experience. Hold it. My head's getting bigger. Let me go stick it in the microwave.

J's sexy slug pouch:-)

Taken during Christmas 2010, J hopped by with her colorful sexy slug pouch:-)
Very ego-trippin'. Fret not! I shall not attempt to write what J is doing/pointing at. I kinda want to, but that would be pervy. Okay! You got me. She's....finger(censored).

J's new tees

J's new cotton tees featuring Pinocchio and the Gingerbread Man. :-) Thank you J!

Mom R bought B a colorful Doinky tee for his birthday bash:-)
Thank you R!

Soft Medals for a Diving Competition

A very lovely treasurer and diving member of a local diving society had these made for her team members' upcoming diving competition: Soft plush medals for each and every member who participates in the competition!

For the ultimate winner whose goal is to spot as many sea urchins as possible, s/he wins
An Urchin Bag!
First runner-ups will be awarded with:
Shark, Jellyfish, Clown Fish and colorful Triangle Fish key rings (pictured right above).
Second-runner ups will each receive an ikan billy for his/her attempt at the whole sea urchin gig. If they hadn't spotted enough sea-urchins, they most certainly have spotted yummy fans of ikan billies at this point.
And for the ones who hadn't found much, you STILL get something very special! 2 lucky members will be awarded with these special seaweeds for their efforts nonetheless!
Thank you C!
