Hey Warren,

Now that you and Bob are best friends I think you should know... He has a termite farm and may be trying to use you for wood!

I just think you should be careful is all!

Steven

Good morning Warren!

Well, I was feeling a little left out since Bob called me yesterday and tells me you guys are going bottle hunting and he'll let me know what you find! I may go diving this weekend in a place where I found an unlisted Fire grenade! The freezing water is nice and clear.

I have a probe out of ELUEDIAM PEW32. (I suppose you do too) Or I should say HAD. Remember that little Martian on bugs bunny? He was after some rare Wisconsin bottles and attacked me and my digging partner while we were out on a dig. He actually said something like, "I'VE COME TO COLLECT ALL THE BOTTLES IN YOUR STATE... TAKE ME TO THE BLOSSOMS BADGER ALE" (In a very weird voice) Sure he was pointing his space laser at us so we were like okay okay we'll take you. In reality there was no way we were going to hand over the Blossoms to that little son of a &^&*(^@! I picked up four alabamie bottles we had just found and starting juggling. (Juggling is mesmerizing to the little Martians you know.) While he was distracted my partner threw a digging tarp over him and we made off. He fired his laser repeatedly before he was able to free himself and go back to his little ship to flee.

When we went back to the scene the next day with a bunch of space abducty freaks. (You know the kind you see on sixty minutes and 20/20.) The probe made of ELUEDIAM PEW32 Was vaporized. It must have taken a direct hit from the little guys space laser!

Again I'm only trying to help here. I don't want to hear you got into a tussle with a space alien and ended up vaporized because you tried to attack with your left leg leading!

Steven

P.S. I used the alabamie bottles so i wouldn't have to feel bad if i dropped and broke them... I'm a terrible juggler!

MrBottles...

Hey Steven, congratulations on the upcoming addition to your family! I guess your diving time will be a little less, but when you do get underwater, the peacefulness... the quiet... the relaxation... you'll be falling asleep!

I'm going through bottle withdrawal... my drysuits aren't back from being repaired yet, (I had them stored in a dive bag out in the garage and mice ate a hole through both of them!!) So I'm still wet suitin it Water temp is down to 40 degrees now oh well...

Your web site is super... I'm glad you found us here on the forum. It's quite a family we have here... Have a Happy New Year and the best to you and your family,

Wayne

Wayne,

Thanks for the feedback and the kind wishes!!! I thought you had given up on the bottle chat thing.

The site is taking shape even as we speak. Just today I completed a redo of a bunch of images in my personal gallery and in the Wisconsin blob soda gallery. I'm back to moving forward instead of redoing! If you have any ideas that would make the site better let me know. We will soon have a Wisconsin bitters gallery and whisky gallery. Getting photographs of as many different bottles is tough and putting them up takes time!

We used to dive wet in water that was only open because of high current with air temperatures near zero! It would take hours to warm back up and the dives would suck the energy right out of you. I was going to hit a river today in a rapids area but we have unusually warm temperatures today and a ton of rain so I'll loose the benefit of being able to see. It's an area where I found some good stuff but with basically rapids you need to see to dive it effectively. I'm going to put it off until next weekend.

You know we have a forum at mrbottles too, right? It would be nice to see you there!

Happy new year!

Steven

MrBottles...

Steven, I didn't give up the bottle forum chat thing, I was just away on vacation.

I brought the lap top with me but for some reason, I couldn't get hooked up and when I did, the keyboard letters were so small that I kept hitting wrong ones or doubles, so I just gave up

I'm back home now and just got back in from a couple of service calls. Boy the water is frigid... But this is how I make my living, so the work must go on. I can't wait till the dry suits get back! Talk to you soon,

Wayne

Oh My!

The tears are welling up in my eyes! You have to go in the cool water to make a living? That's only one step away from having the sleepy relaxed life of Warren. Do you ever find treasure (bottles) on the job?

Man what a life!

Steven

Hey Steven...

Yes, I've found a couple of nice things while working... I bring some up and put them aside. I found that Iberian/Spanish olive jar on a job, the Stoddard Double Eagle half pint on another I write down the GPS numbers and then return to the exact site later on and scour the area! It has worked real well. When I'm working with my boat, I try to take a lunch hour and burn a tank of air in a new spot to see what I can find...

It makes the day go by fast. As long as I get my work done, then everybody is happy!

Iberian Spanish olive hey? Sounds interesting? Was it pontiled? Was Milwaukee spelled Milwaukie on it? Now that would be some thing if it was!!! Did Warren tell you he spells Alabamy F-L-O-R-I-D-A? What the hell is Iberian anyway? Does that mean 'extra spicy' Spanish olives? If so can you get original recipe too?

GPS? You dive for work AND have all the technical gizmos. Warren must get sick with envy in the time between his naps and bingo games!

Steven

Steven...

I think Warren is joke writer for big time "Sit Com"!! He always has a great one line comeback...

I've been practicing with my wife's digital again. I got some bottles back from being cleaned, so I was going to throw a couple up on the forum... Tell me what you think and how I can improve them..

Hey Steven, If you or anyone else wants to learn the true secret to early retirement they way I did, I have a BAR. [ thats Browning Automatic Rifle ]All YOU have to do is not move wile I show you. We will forego the 12+ G impact with ground.

I believe seal season is open here in Alabamy so dress in your little seal like suit and come on down.

Hey Wayne, don't let him snow ya, BINGO was invented in Ogaboogasheewa Westconsin.

Whoa Warren!

You can't shoot Wisconsin bottle collectors. We're the hunters not the hunted. Besides who's going to find you all those floribama or bamiflora Pepsi bottles if you shoot me? Remember 1 Blossoms Badger Ale ="s 6 Pepsi bottles! Who would shoot a poor helpless seal anyway?

What exactly happened to you Warren? Did they have you in the air force circus and you missed the landing pad after being shot out of the human cannon ball thingy? Did you do cartwheel off a curb and land funny while doing those cool training runs they always show on TV or what?

Warren you're getting you activities confused again... Cross stitching was invented in Ogaboogasheewa not BINGO! That was more of that James Carvel speak on the Wisconsin too. I get goose bumps when you do that!

Wayne i'm not sure i'd be much help on the pictures. I am having better luck but still figuring it out myself. I'd love to see some glass though!

Steven

Hey Steven, the government told me that flying is fun and safe and then we got shot down.You know? There are very few places to duck in an airplane and when your only moving at 500mph it can be a real bummer.
