2. Dive gracefully into the water. (Don't fall face first into the water like this guy did.)
3. Glide smoothly into the water making as small a splash as possible. (Again, don't do what this guy did. He made the mistake of making sure his body was parallel with the surface of the water when he hit. He not only made a big splash with the belly flop, this also gave him severe abdominal pain.
4. Reward yourself with the favorite meal of your choice for a job well done. (Or in this guys case, he consoled himself with this lobster dinner for being a schmuck.)

Ms SD
Sorry, go here! :)
Happy HNT!
LOL...
Belated Happy Birthday to Lori.
I also wanted to tell you how interesting I find your Vietnam blog. I read it last night. Thanks so much for sharing.
LOL - actually, it was a pretty graceful entrance into the water when you consider the small splash radius.
Can I come over and try my own belly flop to see if I can put a wave over the hedges?
Happy HNT Lobster Boy!
ow ow OOWWWWW!
I'm laughing with you, not at you...
That looks eerily similar to my dives. I've never been able to dive correctly into a pool. I can cannonball the hell out of it though! haha. happy hnt!
I read "diving" as "driving" and thought "what the heck is he doing at a pool?". Now who's the dork? LOL BTW belly flops HURT. Like hell.
My favorite meal, too! HHNT!
I lifeguarded for many years, you have to start diving from the side of the pool, on one knee, then move up to the board! ;)
As for the Lobster, SUPER YUMMIES! :)
Happy HNT
Happy belated bday to Lori - I've been too swamped to keep up with all the goings on over here! Hope she likes the laptop. What a great gift!
Loved the old cars & the update on your Good Partner Willy!
Have a great HNT!
Hey there's some splash there! No 10, maybe an 8.4.
Sorry I've not been around- I miss the blog world, and I'm so happy you're hapyp with Lori. You totally deserve it. I'm not sure about whether she deserves a dirty old man like you, though! : )
And the cars? I WANT THEM.
Love it! You are really just getting better and better.
If being a schmuck gets you a lobster dinner, I'm thinking that's the better deal.
That dinner looks great. And I am so happy that you and Lori are so happy.
SEND ME SOME OF THAT LOBSTER FOR MY BIRTHDAY!!!
Love the commentary!
HHNT!
LMAO at that pic of you in your swimming trunks!
