Dive Master

After more than two years of screwing around, I've finally received my PADI Dive Master certification. Now I have the joy of feeding PADI over a hundred dollars a year!

The annoying thing is that in the certification pack that I received from PADI, 90% of the stuff was marketing material. PADI is really not endearing itself to its professional members.
