Sure. Fly me down. Keep me in food (I cook too) and wine (you buy) and I'll do my best. I know how to operate power tools as well. If you have a nail gun and some mouldings that need to be put up, all the better! 'Shell

I don't think I've done a Lang jump since your, umm, something thousandth...maybe 6th? Do I really have to suck or would a couple quick licks get me on a load this year? Blues, Dave I don't think even LP is ready for a t-shirt of you licking madjohn ... the speedo was one thing ... this is ENTIRELY another level. 'Shell

BING BING BING!!! WE HAVE A WINNER!! Kitchen cabinets have a particular opportunity to have greasy build up on them. Prepare them with TSP and lightly sand if necessary (220 grit sandpaper folded in thirds) paint and you are ready to go! AND use a HIGH ADHESIVE PRIMER! I painted my cabinets a while ago and was given this advice. It makes a HUGE difference. A good primer goes a LONG way! And have fun with the painting. Me, I personally LOVE painting. And my colourful house shows that!

VIBES for her. Hopefully she gets through it. She's an athlete and they build those tough.

although its just round the corner its not worth the chance around here...your right i should suck it up but there is nothing to suck up Try walking there. Might help out with your screen name. I tried walking got to the mail box and was out of breath..lol no been walking all day with the job. Do you have "Dial a Bottle" there. Seriously. We have that here. Call them, for a small fee, you get your alcohol. If you don't, apparently in your neighbourhood, it could be a money maker. 'Shell

You said that in a WAY more PC way than I did! 'Shell

Well, I've thought about them too, but they're too damned expensive. I know where you can get a set of these quite cheap. You DID want them for a paperweight, right ... 'Shell

Hey, I'm not judging you or anyone else.

You just summed up what the Prairie will feel like this year. A LOT empty. New jumpers won't get to hear those great stories he told. And us old folks won't get to hear them again. We'll raise a few for Mac this year. And again next year and the year after. And we'll have to tell a few stories too. We owe him that.

Without resorting to insults or thinly veiled PA`s.. I can see where women that were not blessed with a proportionate figure might find someone that was blessed with a GREAT figure and natural beauty telling them the only reason to get Breast Enhancement was for attention might sound a little condescending. Like I said in the other thread.. There are reasons some women choose to Brest enhancements beyond just trying to get more attention. And does it really matter if someone else chooses to get implants. To each their own. Why judge them. If you want them, get them. If you don't want them, does it matter if someone else does. 'Shell

Mine too. In fact, I believe there was a day that your's and mine looked the same. I don't think your's were 100% real YOU that day! 'Shell

You red my mind You spill a lot too? I'm thinking of changing my entire wardrobe to the same colour as my favourite Cab-Sauv. I've already done that with the area rug in my sun room. So far, so good ... 'Shell

Yeah... for that reason I was thinking of trying to combine the wine and the red nighties. What does everyone think of that? That's a natural combination. I think you should make it so! I shall work on it

Tower is, I believe, THURSDAY. Suck up to madjohn about the Lang jump. He won't make you do anything TOO yucky! CYA there my dear! 'Shell

I can think of a much better meaning to "gone south" Of course you can. And that's why we love you.

Nope. Good thing. It would have gone south a LOT sooner. 'Shell

Perhaps the dog was not meant to be asholeish, more so that the dog is probably the only thing of legitamate concern. People who spend there time and money on a recreational activity like skydiving really have no bussiness whining about finances. We who skydive are a relatively wealthy lot. People should really get theuir priorities in check and concenr themselves with hting of more importance. Oh and Shell if your world is full of arseholes, ask yourself why they may be attracted to you So all skydivers are wealthy??? And if you're involved in this sport and you're NOT wealthy, you don't get to whine about things? Hmmm ... guess I should check out of this whining thread then. And the sport. Must be nice to not have to worry about things and be able to judge those that do. And I didn't say my WORLD was full of assholes -- only lately. Maybe it's because I try and give most of them the benefit of the doubt. I think I'll stop doing that. It's not working out for me and negative energy is a bad thing ... 'Shell

it not personal at all there a lot of whiners on here. people who spend $4000 a year on jumping have no bussiness compaining about finances How come you always manage to say the wrong things at that the wrong time. Or is it the wrong things at the right time? I don't know ... last I read, this thread seemed to be a "woe is me" thread. And that's okay. That's allowed here (last I heard). Why is it that you always have to be such a ... ummm ... ah, shit billvon, I'm trying here ... you've asked me to me more "understanding" .. and I'm trying to be ... oh ... never mind ... Squeak, why are you such a poopy pants. Stop judging people. You seem to think that people shouldn't jump because unforseen bills might crop up and if they do, and those bills crop up, they don't get to do the "woe is me" thread and hope for a little "you're not the only one". Try and be a little more human. Oh, and the "perhaps the dog" was an asshole-ish reply. Apparently dogs don't matter in your world... Oh, to the rest of you, sorry for the vent ... I've been dealing with a lot of assholes in my world lately Carry on. I'm on your side with "why is it..." 'Shell

Oh Shell, don't give up so easy . . . Oh, I'm hardly giving up my dear ... who has the tent? And the bedding? And the mints? Pretty sure it's not the guy flying into LP ... You might want to be nicer to me.

Blah blah blah ... and you never replied to my PM about your "home" for the duration. Whether you like it or not, that's what you get to live in. And I'm under 80 sleeps now ... I get to see some of my FAVE people! You just want me to be under your control? I've learned you can't control the Turtle. I just thought I'd give you options. Don't like the home you're given, find another one. 'Shell

Have a happy happy birthday, girl. CYA in about 80-ish sleep! Luv ya!

You may be right. The dog might not care . The dog might not know that the attention he just received was done maliciously. But the owner does. I would never want to see anything bad happen to any animal anywhere and I certainly hope that the spray paint is not toxic and does not harm the dog in any way but, maybe this is the wake up call the owner needs. The paper says the dog "enjoys wandering, unleashed, though its Idaho neighborhood" so hopefully they will keep the dog in there yard from now on so he wont be hit by a car or hurt by an angry neighbor. I have seen too many dead dogs on the side of the road lately. I also had a friend that had one of her kittens killed by a neighbors "gentle" free roaming dog. You're right, dogs shouldn't roam the neighbourhood. And yes, it's the OWNER'S responsiblity to make sure their dog isn't roaming the neighbourhood. But to spray paint a dog rather than find out where it belongs is pretty irresponsible too. I had a "ghost dog" appear on my deck one night. I called the pound. They had no calls about a missing dog. I opened the gate to see if he would leave and go home (he didn't). I finally called the pound to pick him up because my dog wouldn't go to bed with him on the deck (I felt so bad about that because I didn't know where he'd end up ... home or dead crossed my mind). They picked him up. He came back a few weeks later. I tied a note on his collar to ask his owners to call me with their number because he kept coming to my house to visit. I'm glad they did. They're not BAD owners. He jumps a 6' fence. The highest fence you can have in our area. I would hope my "neighbours" would do the same if my dog got out. While the owner says the dog roams and they're not ensuring he doesn't, is it acceptable to spray paint the dog?? 'Shell
