Bubba and Clem in Cozumel Still

Our would be heroes, Bubba and Clem are still floundering in the flat seas while the crew is trying to get them aboard. Bit with all of the specialized junk they have attached to themselves, it appears impossible. Neither can get the other out of his stuff.

The boat crew determines that they have to tow these fellows to the pier, heck its only a few miles. A new sport is being invented, little did the Mexicans know, red neck trolling.

As other boats pass, the laughter can be heard by the ancient Mayans on the mainland. Some of the divers on the other boats actually toss fruit and coins to Bubba and Clem. Cameras are clicking and video is running. Its gonna be big time party in town tonight. The infamous Carlos n Charles will be renamed Bubba n Clems by midnight.

As they near the downtown pier a crew from ESPN has arrived from covering the finals in the world championship burro tipping contest over in the Yucatan. They want to cover this famous dive day. Bubba is thinking about a show on ESPN2, the B & C High Tech Red Neck Dive Show. The girl in the yeller bikini comes to mind as a new starlet.

Well the boys are hoisted out of the water by a crane on the pier and a huge crowd has gathered to see what behemoth sea creature has arisen. This will be on the news at 6pm in the states fer sure. ( remember this, it will be important in a future issue )

With a lot of help the lads are freed from the dive junk and head back to their hotel ( which will be unnamed to protect the boys privacy ).

The first order of business is to download their dive computers into their super duper laptop PCs. They brought them along so they could hook up to AOL and be sure to post in the old scuba forum that they were here in Cozumel ( like someone really cares ). Then it's off to the AOL Scuba Forum where all the real cool divers hang out. for some chat sessions.

They carefully unpack their video ( which this stupid author forgot to tell you about in previous tales ). Clem knows he has some great shots of the girl in the yeller bikini. And they are dying to see her again. They have some really cool video toys. They have a bicycle helmet affixed with a tiny camera on it so they film what they see. Bet you can never guess who they swam with the entire dive? Kinda like hemmetcameraman on Playboy TV that they get from outer space on the little satellite dish up on the barn next to the See Rock City Sign. But thet reel worried about saying PlayBoy on the scuba forum, they might get in big trouble.

As our heroes lie around with just a towel on waiting for supper, they get to yaking about the future. They figer that there is no doubt that they are the bestest darn divers around and have the mostest stuff so they are gonna do a couple thangs. First they gonna bekome instructors so they can learn other folks to div and then gonna open up themselves a dive shop and training place ( they are worried about a couple thangs - what they gonna call it and if Willys tire pump will make nitrox ). They gonna first make up a calendar with a diving girl on it, maybe hav a contest to pick her out ( they seen a hot babe at a rock quarry once ). That yeller bikini keeps reappearing in their limited memory banks too. They also are gonna need some envesters with the big bucks to make the dream a reality. Hum?

Enough thanking for now time fer a nap and a Coke.
