    We did our tandems there, four years ago this month! Christian is a cool guy. It was expensive compared to most tandems, but WHAT A VIEW for our first skydive! marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    Bodhgaya after november thru feb is worth a visit. Sit under the tree where Buddha was enlightened. Lots of international pilgrims. Dalai Lama spends lots of time there. Feel those vibes! marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    Just caught the show, I liked it. By the way, the subtitles for the japanese were pretty accurate, and the accents were real japanese speaking. Things like 'Spock Death Grip' and 'super-hero' etc were said in english with the proper japanese accent....When he arrived in times square and said 'YATTA!' The cover of the comic book translated it correctly to 'I DID IT!' etc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    Just arrived in Las Vegas NV....switching planes here for orange county CA....and the airport has no power! (Tower must have power, planes are flying) We walked down stairway from plane then up another to the terminal....and appears that the plane schedule is still close to planned. What is slowing things down from the gate side is deplaning the people who need wheelchairs and/or have problems with stairs.Plus there are only a few portable stairways for all the gates and planes. People are sitting in planes waiting for their stairs! I wonder how people are getting through security and getting their boarding passes printed...but hey, no probs on my side....let's see if the soda is still cold in the store fridges.... Even the slot machines are down! You'd think they'd have their own generator system for those "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    ya know, I have been flying FL to CA round trips every week for over a month, with 2 more months in this project. Last week Mariott told me I hit some kind of elite status. I have no idea what these type of status are worth. Room Upgrades? Big deal! Car upgrades? They usually give me larger cars anyway, but I don't drive much while onsite... Seat upgrades on flights? hmmm... So, my question is 'what do you do with all those status upgrades?' marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    They are expensive and I have heard pros and cons. Do you use a tempurpedic or similar type mattress? What brand and what style have you used? "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    Hey everybody! Any suggestions as to the best webcam, preferably for laptops? Lots of good reviews for the logitech fusion webcam, but some strong negatives for that product too... What do you use for MSN Messenger etc? Thanks, Marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    I remember how to have multiple people on typed out chat in messenger, but how does it work when we are all using voice and webcams? Alysse's family in Japan, Brasil, and the US are scheduling daily get togethers over msn. we are thinking about buying a logitech fusion camera. anyone have any opinions on a good laptop camera?

    After your post about how your parrot had eaten up your wallet and credit cards, I am surprised you let him near your computer! One time while I had my back turned, Mojo climbed down from his cage, walked across the room, climbed up the ottoman, and had removed the back and the battery from my cellphone and was about to tear up the SIM chip when I caught him! Those guys are too curious and smart! And they are much better talkers than typists it appears! marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

    Saturday nite after a long hot day of skydiving, a bunch of us went to Ybor City and heard around 10 bands till 2am. Many of the group went to the pancake house on the way back to ZHills, and some (will remain nameless for now) even had nitecaps till past 4am... Then today a number of us managed to get out of our Mojito Daze and do a few skydives. Photos were taken, maybe someone will post a few? The group included: Skymama Vinny the Anvil Normiss Marc and Alysse KatieBear Flora Kim Annemarie and Charlie Jeannie and Gabe "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
