"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

When I first met her I was told she rides a motorcycle. Hmmmm......not sure how to take that as I don't care much for girls who act like guys.

Anyways, the night goes on and I find out she's into scuba, something I've always wanted to try. Then she drops the bomb....SHE'S A TREASURE HUNTER!

If I had to choose one non-sexual fantasy to live out before I die it would be to dive for sunken treasure. Turns out that her family has a lease to dive the 1715 treasure fleet wrecks and my dream just might come true!

Anyways, she is pretty good looking and despite her tomboyish lifestyle she is still feminine, but I'm not really that attracted to her. I just hope I can manage to work my way out onto that treasure boat somehow!
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Interesting.

If you find any treasure (jewels, those big gold pirate coins, etc.) , do you get full salvage rights or do you have to give most of treasure to the local government and only get the 10% finder's fee?

Not sure exactly how it works, but I know they sublease from the Fisher family who has salvage rights in that area. I think the state does get a piece as well.

After the hurricanes come through a lot of guys hit the beach in that area (no permit needed for that) and find coins, rings, etc. I haven't managed to make it over after a storm...too bad.

I have a top of the line waterproof metal detector and I have found modern treasure (gold, silver, and platinum rings, earrings and such). People call you a geek but it's a BLAST finding valuable stuff.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

What kind of bike does she ride? I prefer chicks who drive crotch rockets because many of them wear sexy full body suits that hug and curve in just the right way!:p

Treasure hunting is my second dream job after yacht sales!!
I'm hoping to break into both after I move to Florida. I'm gonna study archeology and ocean marina when i get down there. Should be a lot of work but '06 is suppose to be my year of changes.

I believe it is a crotch rocket, matter of fact.

The story of the 1715 hurricane is an amazing piece of history! If I were to find just ONE coin from one of the wrecks I would die a happy man.
