Haven't updated profile in ages...~275. Disregard.

Hey... I'm looking for a skydiving discipline that'll reinvigorate me. How would you suggest I train to start jumping a wingsuit? I've watched them for years, and am looking at getting one. Thx

Illinois? Edit: Talked to her on the phone Saturday. She's hella bored.

My favorite cartoon character is the Cheshire Cat. I am the first Eagle Scout and Military Officer in my family.

Limo to the boat, sleep on deck while crew preps ship for departure...

Google "Female Genital Mutilation." Hope you haven't just finished a meal.

I'm looking at a new duty station. My choices are Salt Lake City UT, Oklahoma City OK, or Warner-Robbins, GA. What're the pro's/con's of each? Which would be the best for recreation (skydiving, General Aviation, etc)? All are equal in terms of career progression... Thx

Then don't get one, you ignorant slack-jawed yokel... (note: I don't care either way, just dislike asshats like this woman...)

Problem is fire-breathing zealot asshats like Pat Buchanan insist that "religion" somehow means "Protestant Born-Agains with the need to shit on others' beliefs." See the "Marklar" episode of South Park. They're the ones causing most to advocate limiting religion in govt. In order to restrain them, we need to restrain all...

Carnival Sensation and Holiday are good values. Not the newest ship on the sea, but hella good food and hella good value. I ran up a $500 bar tab in a 5 day cruise... And I never paid for drinks the formal banquet night. Wore my Mess Dress. Random senior citizens bought all us servicemen drinks all night. I dunno who was drunker, me or my friend who's a USMC GySgt....

From the US. Been to Mexico and the Bahmas. Need to start collecting stamps in my passport. Who wants to go to Spain w/me? Going to Canada this year. Perhaps UK and Spain also. Oklahoma seems like a whole other country--does that count?

IIRC, a sequel is in the works. Disney is going to need all the help it can get, now that Pixar fired them.

I feel your pain right now. My Grandpa is 91, and will probably not see the end of this spring. It sucks, but I have two goals right now regarding him--1: Realize that no-one is immortal, so we need to cherish one another, and 2: (don't think me sexist for this) I need to be there for my Sister, Mom, and the other women in the family, who this is hitting the hardest. Re: Small box--the US is the only country that does open casket wakes. So not seeing him is not unusual. Other countries see open casket wakes as creepy. When I die, I want to be cremated, and half my ashes dumped outta 4-way RW formation, and the other half poured onto a coral reef. I'm only 27, but I have a DNR on file if I am ever injured in such a way that might leave me para/quadraplegic.... Quality of life and all... My condolences. What did he do with life? What's his story? (I'm genuinely curious...)

Do what I do--just don't jump November-March. Get back up into the air on April fool's day, and feel reborn on 1 Apr!. You'd be amazed how much $ you'll save on jump tix and repacks when you stay earth bound.

Carnival Cruise line rocks! (Went on one last November) Go on one to Mexico out of New Orleans--spend the night before in the French Quarter...heheh.

Where's a SKYSWEEPER when you need one???

Solution: Detonate a thermonuclear device--clouds cleared. Problem is the wind and other accompanying effects... -
They're not allowed to sing it in "The Star Spangled Banner" are they? Wendy W. that doesnt make much sence The star spangled banner was a song written from a ship watching a battle at night, not something written to express dedication to a country and flag. ...and if memory serves, God is mentioned in only the obscure 2nd or 3rd verses of the Anthem...

...Why I'm glad my ancestors decided to say "Sod off" to King Whatshisname in 1776.

For your son- 2 words: West Point. Be military, get a degree, start out as an O-1.

That's exactly what your average German said about the Hitler Youth's programs...

YES. They were added because of the Knights of Colombus' lobbying efforts against the "Godless Commies." It was not a founding father idea, it was one of giving ourselves a warm fuzzy feeling. Mental masturbation, so to speak. I never said the "under god" part, never will, and will vote for its removal, given the chance.

No way in hell the USSS presidential detail is going to go anywhere unarmed. At every Embassy overseas, there's a detachment of highly trained/armed/motivated Marines. Then add Diplomatic Security Service agents, FBI agents (all armed)... So, why the hoopla about a few dozen extra USSS guys for a few days? I guarantee the USAF Air Force 1 Security Forces guys will "dissuade" anyone from trying to disarm them... Unreal...

All true. Too bad for the rest of the world we have the strongest: -Economy/Market -Military -Political position heheheh...The "Colonies" are now the 6'6" 200# little brother that can kick the crap outta the rest of the family...

"There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie, and Dim, and we sat in the Korova Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening. The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence."
