We have been selling SeaLife underwater photography products
since their parent company, Pioneer Research, started marketing the
EWA flexible plastic underwater camera housings. They are so close to
our store that I pick up all of my SeaLife orders on my way to Broad & Ridge
in Philadelphia.

The best way to contact us this month, JUNE of 2009, is by email.

Looking for a real PHILADELPHIA LAWYER ? A recent article in PHILADELPHIA MAGAZINE expressed a doubt about there being any left in Philadelphia.

Please tell them that Howard - the scuba instructor - from
the Diving Bell at Broad and Ridge suggested that you call.

This is a good time for a quick history lesson.

BARE FOOT AND PREGNANT IS NOT A JOKE.
ASK YOUR MOTHERS AND GRANDMOTHERS ABOUT THEIR HORROR
STORIES OF THE OLD DAYS OF THE GIRLS AND WOMEN WHO WERE
USED AND ABUSED. MOST OF THEM COULD NOT AFFORD THE
LONG TRIP ON AN OCEAN LINER. ALTERNATIVES LIKE THE
WIRE COAT HANGER AND THE QUICK TRIP DOWN THE STAIRS
WERE POPULAR. THEN THERE WAS THE GOOD OLD HEAD IN THE OVEN
BEFORE PILOT LIGHTS WERE IN USE.

YOUR GRANDFATHER MAY STILL REMEMBER THE BATTLE CRY
OF THE BOYS AND MENS LOCKER ROOMS - - -
KEEP THEM ITCHES IN THEIR PLACE.
