Vewruy true: here in NY, Joe Divewru gets a PADI open Watewru cewrut
for $89, and is then told he should dive the local wrecks.  Oh course,
he's not told that he will be dealing with 130 fsw dives in 55 def F
watewru with strong currents and possibly large marine life (sharks).
He is told that if he brings a brewuakeruw bar and venturewus inside
the wrecks, he will find some rewually great stuff.

I'm amazed that thewrue arewun't morewu incidents.
