  1. That is some extremely gripping and thought-provoking imagery. Thanks, Rhino. Don

    New names!

    Answer : Zippy Wafflechunks Question : What might you see in the porcelain throne after a night of drinking, and an early breakfast at the Waffle House ? Porn name : Snowflake McFadden Don
  3. Okay, Scott.....I give up. What does this mean ? (Been trying to figure it out for weeks now........and if it's something obvious, then make up something difficult so I won't feel so stupid !)
  4. 11....on the border between "safe and sane" and "not". Don
  5. I'm in bed making love, and the limo arrives to take the 4 Bunnies back to the Mansion.......
  6. it's time to put the lamb chops on the grill, but Justin and Clay aren't "done" with them yet......

    We have a weiner !
  8. That she is........tell her all the folks from Smith Mountain say "Hi".... I know she loves it out there in sunny California..... Don
  9. Yeah, what Dennis said.... I had to be the world's worst as a student (hence the nickname).....I would consistently finish my flare 5-10 feet above the ground.....but never got hurt because I ALWAYS planned on a PLF landing. Sure, I pretty much wrecked my DZ's student jumpsuit, and gave my instructors all kinds of tumbling landings to laugh over once the beer-light came on, but the grass stains on the suit and rig looked better than a cast would have looked on my ankle or leg. And you will get the hang of it, over time. Just gotta keep jumping......hell, I've got 13 stand-ups in a row now. If I can do it.......

    Okay.... mine is... "Wave upon wave of demented avengers March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream....." Band and title ? Don
  11. Explosive device ? (or pics of Clay's parents, proving he was NOT a result of cross-breeding of farm animals ?) Don
  12. Close call, but I'd take Moore over Connery. I thought he was better at delivering the acerbic, dry English wit. But, with that said, I think Connery is by far the better overall actor. The Bond movies are the only time I ever liked Moore's acting, but Connery pretty much does a great job at everything he touches. (I'm not rational. My mom went back to college to become a psychologist, but she has no luck with me either.....) Don
  13. I could totally get behind this sentiment.....but it will never happen here in the States.....the lawyers wouldn't stand for it. Think about this fact for a moment -- I read in Reader's Digest that there are currently more students in law school in the US than there are accredited lawyers in the US. I think "litigation-happy" America is going to be getting even "happier" when all these folks graduate. Don
  14. This is the sad part to me.......that someone can be in the right, but STILL have to pay just to prove it. I think one lawsuit such as this could ruin the entire skydiving industry.....seems that prices will go up just to offset the possible added expense of defending one's self. Also, I thought Mr. Booth brought up another very relevant point......that of the 16-year-old-girl telling her mother that "the big ugly tandem master grabbed my breast". How could any tandem master avoid any accidental close contact with an underage female passenger ? And in the 99% of the cases where said TM would be perfectly in line with his normal procedures, how many first-timers are going to know that all that contact is neccessary, and unavoidable ? Not to mention the fact that the most injurious aspect is the accusation itself, whether it's true or not......that could follow a TM throughout his entire career. I think Bill was correct when he said that the vast majority of people only jump once -- what does it matter if you get their money at 18, instead of 16 ? Skydiving is a sport for adults....it needs to remain that way. Don
  15. You two kill me. I know Seth's on mind-warping medication......what's your excuse, Phree ?
  16. My mom is bald..... ....twice a week by my step-father.
  17. 1:2:0 Managed to scare the s*** out of myself Saturday.....did two hop-n-pops at Raeford.....wore gloves on the first one and fumbled for my handle, so I took them off. The second jump I fumbled for it AGAIN, and when I threw out I went head down and rolled over a little, so when the bag deployed it went out between my legs and the lines wrapped around my left ankle, and the slider stayed up. Scary ! So I'm hanging upside down, low to begin with, and trying to get loose so I can either ride it down or cutaway.....finally get untangled and upright, and had to kick out of line twists to boot. Luckily, nothing hurt but my pride. On a happy note, ever since I bought Aviatrr's Hornet, I've sttod up 9 in a row ! The PLFKing may be dead and gone..... Don

    I find this hard to believe......you can enter 300 + posts per night AND pack your rig ?????
  19. Tough luck, Seth.......hope all heals well, and quickly ! Don
  20. Nice post, Pamela.... I didn't see Kelly's post.......I keep such a letter in my house, and my cousin knows where it is in the event of my death. My skydiving has been a source of immense consternation with my family......they don't get it, they don't want to think about it, they don't want to hear it, they don't want to talk about it. I think my sister is the only one that may have a small inkling of how jumping makes me feel, but the others in my family think I have an extremely active death wish. In my letter, I try to tell them how much their fears concerned me, and I didn't take their fears lightly, and I'm sorry that it caused tension between us, but jumping is a small piece of my core now, and it's going to be there forever. I'm single, so I won't be hurting anyone financially if I have a problem and burn in (unless Clay's auto is nearby !). I can't even imagine how nerve-wracking a decision to jump must be to those of you with young children.......... Don
  21. Hmmmm..........this is a philosophy that women might want to subscribe to in ALL aspects of life......
  22. Hey.....I don't care if you bad-mouth ME........but please refrain from insulting my Red Wings ! (they only have the best record in ALL of creation...) (and you forgot to put a question mark at the end of your query....)
  23. (not trying to be anal about it, but you mispelled "stupid"....) I guess "professional editor" has a different meaning in Texas.... Don Jessica Goat-Getter # 6 (wait.....that sounds like a job for...."SUPERCLAY !" )
