    Excerpt
    Through my foggy mask, I make out my dive buddy giving the go signal. I back-roll, in-gloriously, into the turquoise waters in northern Batangas in the Philippines. Scant seconds pass as I find my bearings, but soon the scene unfolds: a pulsating shoal of blue-green chromis, interspersed with a few ubiquitous sergeant majors, hail us to Poseidon's realm.
