Happy Birthday! Deep Sea time.

Just picked up my big 21st bday (March3) and college grad present I've been saving up for...finally! Work hard play hard. Loving life.



And here is DSSD with his little brother SD. Didnt get a picture of his uncle PAM112 tho ha.


Not the best pictures. But if you want good DSSD pics, theres a thread just a page or two back :) Puffy's pictures pretty much sold me the DSSD over a SubC, no lie.

Enjoy. I got my DSSD as a graduation present as well. I did cave in for the Sub C 3 years later now it gets more wrist time. Still love the DSSd too. Congrats.

I love when people think I was given my SD, PAM, or DSSD as a spoiled guy. Just makes me appreciate how hard I worked for them and purchased myself even more...as i said earlier....why not get it it now before I have a wife to drain my accounts or a mortgage payment :)
