Mac, Jim and Darrin didn't get a dive in this week but they make up for it by discussing Slugs, Gold and a wet Bounty... These could be mental triggers we have been told to communicate for our alien overlords. The bad scuba joke may be the proof you are looking for. If you get to Our World Underwater, make sure you keep an eye out for Mac - he'll be the guy waiting in line to see the mermaids.
