oh. well, i went to one in 8th grade & they didn't use mics. I thought they might, but couldn't see them or the speaker. Oh, well - they still rocked!! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

OMG this is so true!! There are so many points where honesty comes into play. If you are untrue, really, you are the only person that suffers. 2 stories. My b/f asked if I wanted to go out one night. I said I honestly didn't care, but would prob rather go out. He said "none of those girly mind trick things. What do you want to do?" I said no mind tricks will come out of my mouth. If I say the opposite of what I want & he agrees w/ me, there's no way I could possible be mad, I have to accept the bed I made & deal w/it. other story. goin to dinner w/ bunch o friends w/ my b/f. My ex was also going to be there. So, it would be the first time my b/f & ex were in the same country or even same room, but my b/f didn't know the ex was goin to be there. on the drive to the resturant, i had to tell myself to get up the balls to let him know, the situation would only be worse if he was suprised. finally, i told him that my ex would be there. he was like "ok, so?" just no biggie. i felt stupid for being so concerend, but relieved that it was in the open & all parties knowlegable. anyway.... brutal honesty is key.

K, I've LOVED LOVED LOVED the Phantom of the Opera since I was like 11. I finally got to see the Broadway version last night & can I just say it ROCKED!! Funny story, one of the girls I went w/ is an ex-cheerleader turned cheer coach... we're all outside discussing the play. She says, and I quote "I had no idea it had so much to do with the opera.". Anyway, cracked me up. It will never cease to amaze me that those people can sing so loudly & clearly. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

Cool pic!! And proof - kinda. So, you photoshoped the shine of your man's head huh? OOOOhhhh, Dan - that's his name - I've been wondering for over a year . There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

Like Val, I've met her & know she's a she. Well, I think so anyway . Either that or a beautiful man w/ really hughe tatas

I agree w/ everyone else here. The kodak camera is great! I even used mine over a year later to "finish the roll" & all the pics came out fine. Going tannin will not help you Val - only if you went 2-4times/week for about 2 months. And even then, the natural sun will burn you. I'm a fairly tan person naturally, I use to go tanning, Last summer I went to Puerto Vallarta and [r]burnt to a crisp[/r]. While I was in Australia, I bought some kick ass sunblock & bug spray... both of those worked like magic after the crappy american stuff failed miserably. Have fun!! Braid your hair damnit - it just looks so cool on blond caucasians . There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

I didn't know there were any virgin's in skydiving until I found dz.com, but now, a few years later... I'm back to thinkin there are none. Thank goodness the weather gods do not expect much.

Highs in the middle 40s. Saturday Night: Mostly cloudy. Lows in the upper 20s. Sunday: Mostly cloudy. Highs in the middle 40s. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear.

I doesn't tast exactly like chicken . It's a bit tougher, but w/ more flavor. I don't like chicken - it tastes dirty . There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

I think you can wear them. But I'm also a bit odd. It's your wedding, it's IN Texas - most likely no one will notice. I don't think anything is "out of line", you can do anything @ a wedding these days. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

NO WAY!! THAT IS CRAZY!! Someone in my office told me it's nice out today, but I wouldn't know There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

Note to self, potential jumpin @ SDC on Friday... hmmm, sounds like fun! And since I have the day off work... and since CSC isn't open on week days yet.... hmmm

That is a great rule to follow. My other one is "better to be on the ground wishing you were in the sky than to be in the sky wishing you were on the ground." Cheers to you for making the right for you decision. However, here in Chicago 10+ mph winds are "light breezes" . At least we don't have the ocean to deal with though. There is no can't.

MMMM, gator meat - tasty!! 8+ ft - woh, never saw, nor want to, one of those. good for you guys for doing that job!! your discription is pretty much what they taught us in school. that & to shuffle in the ocean so you don't step on a sting ray. isn't is something like 800+ lbs of force on closing & 10 on opening?

VERY COOL!! In school, we were told to hold their moughs shut & hold on - if possible to get them upside down. I'm pretty sure my 120# 16 yr old self could not have done that. But who knows. Everyone knows to run a wide zigzag line right? There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

My parents use to have a place in FL on a lake where the back yard was basically a mini-penninsula sticking out into the lake. After about a week there, 1 - 2 gators would show up almost daily to sun themselves. We had to put up a fence so the dog would not go in the back yard. A few month later the animal control people came out because there were 6 gators over 5 ft in length in the same pond & they like to keep the number under 4. We got to see them wrestle w/ 2 bigguns (like that one) into a van to be "relocated". On the drive between a center of the state town & a west coastal town, I'd regularly see them either ready to or just having crossed the road. One time I saw one far ahead sauntering cross - like he owned the place - HA. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

I basically went 90+ almost the whole way there over 20 times. That said, my parents use to drive truck that way & said that Macon & some other town that has huge billboards for a carpet outlet? are the worse. Have fun. If you have a manual shift car mount eagle is a blast!! Otherwise watchout for the trucks! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

I do not know. I take it on faith, which is what being a Christian is. I'm done w/ this discussion. I don't like typing this much. It is "work" to me. I also am tired of people pressing the same issues over & over whilst refusing to look at more indepth already pointed out discussions done by people far more knowledgable than I. No one knows nor can they hope to know everything. You can only hope that you don't give too much false knowledge, least it become truth. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear.

I understand that the deeper cultural meanings are lost. And that is why paraphrasing is inserted. However, it is not my beliefe that every sentance/word of the Bible must be taken in precise meaning. context must be used; where was the setting, to whom was it directed (specifically). "meja" is like saying my sweetes, dearest person that is my daughter, however, it also means my daughter. The meaning is not changed, it is just viewed in a different light. There is no can't.

That is all very nice - now tell me something I didn't know . Pajarito, from my very brief overview, your attachment looks very interesting. I basically have this to say. The Bible is a Holy book to Christians, parts of it to those of the Jewish faith & additions to those of variants of the Christian faith (including Catholic). This we know. That said, the Bible was given to us as a map. It is not a precise map, otherwise our human right to chose would be removed. There are a few clear items in the Bible. The most important ones are: 1. Believe in Jesus & that he is the Son of God. and 2. Do unto others as you would have done unto yourself. Do these and per the New Testament; Jesus says you will be welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven. Any faith is just that faith. So I have faith that the people led by my God to translate the Bible into a form which may be read by me, translated it as clearly and precisely as possible. Now, based on such & such a translation, it says you shouldn't wear make up, or such & such says not to shave your beard, or____ or blah, blah, blah. Do any of these argumentsfit into either of the 2 "golden rule" topics? If not, it's probably semantical religious jargon being thrown around. If so, than it is very important to your own soul's well being that you look more deeply into the issue. Besides my personal beliefes, translations are not in themselves faulty. However, it is paraphrasing that is faulty. There are also many Christians that study ancient Greek so they can read the New Testament in it's original form, there are fewer that learn ancient Hebrew, but they are there. Also, for translations in Coptic text, these were some of the first "Christian" writings and in my opinion, the most correct. I'm sorry, I have too many points to argue & I absolutely hate typing; so I'm going to go now. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

That is a very good idea!! Um, you did it on your own . There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

I have no idea Val... but want to say to go for it. I majored in Finance, for the same reason & now HATE my career. But what do you do w/ something as specific as Fin or Stat? It's not like you can just transition into HR or even woman's advocate positions. And going back for a Masters in a field 180degrees diff from yours is very difficult. I looked into a few & would ahve to take loads of under grad classes first to qualify, in which case, I might as well get another BA. Good luck to you!! Get out now, while you can, before the golden handcuffs take over. At least you know what you like.

Was it Melissa, longer brown hair? She's in grad school & most of us met her @ the CSC formal holiday party. But on your topic, it rocks!! Although most people in chicago area i meet jump @ SDC.

Freefliers: Do you check your alti during the jump?
EricaH replied to ernokaikkonen's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I use to count on an audible ditter, but then unbeknownst to me it died & I had a really low pull - right @ cypress arming point. Stupid I know - please no one rheam me, I've learned. NOW I'm almost paranoid about looking @ my alti. I have it pulled so tight on my wrist so it stays in place that my hand almost tingles on landing. My typical jump partner has even told me to maybe check just a tad less and HE'S the one that yelled @ me the most. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.
