    Never bothered me when I was younger, not so sure about now though, I may give it a try someday.

    When I was in the 5th grade, our class had a swimming party at some swim place and I dove from the high dive, went into the water crooked, strained my back, which knocked the wind out of me, and have had back troubles ever since.  So,


    NO!!

    When is the next party, I have a bad back and Chiropractor tunes it up, but that's all. How are you Bob?

    Hi, Bustieone! I'm good, working too hard at school, not hard enough at home. Bowling and soooo close to getting back to the gym.
    Good to see you here. Hope all is well with you and your family

    LOL!!

    No.  I close my eyes when I swim and don't like water up my nose. 


    I think I have just realized why two years of swimming lessons is taking no hold on my son.  Some people just don't care for water.

    Like a fish out of water 'eh. How are you Fishy?

    I am really good Bustie. I am very happy to see your words again.
    I do hope all is well with you and your family.

    All is well, thanks Fish, and how about your "school"?

    I can dive, but have never tried the high board.  My older brother was the regional champ at age 14 for New England, back in 1969.  I swam on the team, but no diving competitively.

    First, what is the prize?


     

    When I was in elem school, I tried for a long time to work up the courage to , at least , jump off the high board. (I dove off the low board )  Anyway, I finally did it---- plugged my nose and it seemed like a long way down. I hit the water hard and it was scary . Never did it again.
