    Movie quotes:

    Lemme see, that would be "My chauefeur" "I'm not having any girlies running around here with their titties hangin' about looking at my John Thomas" "'s been a long time since I've seen a good tittie!" "Is there such a thing as a bad tittie?"
  2. sunnydee123 I don't know you, but we may have to disagree on this one... While I am very impressed with the way the Devils are playing and matching wits with the Ducks - Ducks will win on Saturday night at the Pond....and it will go to overtime in Game 7, but the MIGHTY DUCKS of Anaheim will pull out a defeat in NJ that will give them the Cup for the first time EVER!!!

    HOOTIE HOO!!!!

    Man, what a fantastic Friday this should turn out to be....!!! Got home last night to a box on my table from N.C. containing my official KiwiSky visor - very, very cool! A huge thank you to Numero Uno Sky!! Put it on right away and only took it off to sleep! Get to work this morning to find an email confirmation in my inbox from the USPA S&TA..... it's now official - Pyke has a D license!!!!! Watch out! Too bad my Ducks lost last night - or it would have been an extra wonderful day!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  8. DAMN!!! Makes me wish I was still in S.C./S.J.!!!!! Oh well, perhaps my luck will change in the future! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  9. anyone else hear that C&C Music Factory song pop in their head!!???? (man, I'm such an 80's reject!!) Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  10. what was he thinking...?? He was thinking, "dat damn Bonds fellow keeps beating me....yeah, well I'll show him!!" To answer the question of why would he have a corked bat for practice?? As many of you might know - when they have batting practice, fans are usually in their seats. So, if he puts a couple more balls the stands - then more fans have souveniers. do I really think it would matter with his power - NO. The man averages a 410+ft home run swing. One percent (the avg EXTRA that cork gives you) of that is 4.1 ft...still well over the wall of all MLB parks...so even if he hit a "corked" HR at 440ft - he is still only hitting a "real" 435+ft HR. This is all a big farse and I think it's silly. If it's not the Belmont 6 taking the top headlines...it's either Cork, or Ducks coming back, or Agassi going out. Man, it's silly what we let ourselves get occupied with when there is so much else to WORRY about!!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  11. Okay...consider me crazy (too late!) but anyone noticing the pattern here??? child prodigy...lots of fortune, publicity, etc....grows up rich...never understands what it's like to be "normal"....has warped ideas about everything....buys a "ranch" - gets some "work" done, but denies it - sleeps with children for the "innocence of it all"....and in 30-40 years - we all call him Wacko Grego!! Hmmmm....makes you think - future president - or future public moron!! You decide!!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic

    martial arts

    [little known fact about me] former brown belt in Western Tae Kwon Do[/little known fact about me] Had fun for a while - until I realised that the little 10 year olds that didn't have ligament contraints were getting upgraded faster and given more priveleges because they do jump splits and actually - S-P-L-I-T - their legs!!!! (ouch!!) Had a flatmate through most of college who was a 1st dan in traditional ju-jitsu, but really took to Brazilian ju-jitsu (ground grappling) in a big way! Now he is over in Japan refining his technique in both areas and loving it. I must say - with the fact that ALL fights end up on the ground eventually...Brazilian ju-jitsu is where the fun really is!!! my .02

    Sport bikes...

    WAY - WAY - WAY TOO MUCH BIKE for someone who has never ridden one before. Having ridden for over 10 years, and owned bikes myself - I am only just up to where I don't think a 900 is too much of a step up - but it still scares me. Your analogy with the velocity is pretty accurate. This is too much bike for a beginner - and more performance than you need right now. Get a nice 4-600 cruiser/standard style bike. Get used to riding, turning, being in traffic, etc with it. Much like getting the most out of your current canopy before you downsize....get the most out of your low cc bike before you upsize it. Only when you're comfortable with what your OWN limitations are - should you get a bigger bike. But, there are always 2 "cardinal" rules I have abided by with bikes - NEVER buy more than you can handle....and NEVER buy more than you can pick up by yourself. Dropping a bike is a reality (not laying one down on the road, but dropping it on it's side - I have met only a few riders who don't have stories of dropping a bike)! If you can't manage to pick it up by yourself - you should think seriously about your decision BEFORE you invest. That's a very sweet ride - NO LIE. Makes me drool just looking at it, but that's about it!! I also look at the likes of SkyONE and my own home dz swoopers and think, "man, that's cool!" - BUT you WON'T see me doing that for at least another several hundred jumps on my current canopy. SHARE THE ROAD - MOTORCYCLES ARE EVERYWHERE!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  14. Actually, that's "cold, free, & SOMEONE ELSE'S!!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  15. I would have to agree with SkyONE on this one....an that also meets with the approval of my graphics dept! When designing a color scheme to go on my new rig they proposed bright orange & blue...nothing to do with the Fl. Gators, but more to do with contrasts that work. Other contrasts that work...yellow & black, white & red, blue & yellow - Not necessarily the colours of dz.com, but they could work! Anyway, I have been looking for an excuse to buy a long-sleeved shirt - and now I have one! Let me know when to purchase, and you'll have my $20!! Great idea HH - took you long enough tho!!!

  16. I wish I could buy into what you're talking about Cornish, but if it weren't for the ramblings of a pot-smoking, hippie director....I'd find this very interesting! Truth of the matter is, whoever shot JFK pulled off one of the most effed up assassinations in history! Albeit a well planned, and well thought out cover up, but not well executed! You want to off a president, fine...there's a great one in the office right now to consider! But do you have to do it with thousands of spectators (many of which children) standing around watching this freakin' guy's head splatter all over his wife?? At least JW Booth had the decency to do it in a dark theater! When you consider whodunnit - you first consider motive. The mob - why? He was rich Massachusetts bloodline...he could probably buy his way out of any misdealings with them, or at least gain more from uniting with them. LHO - what the hell does some former Army special ops guy have to do with anything? Even if he was a "communist radical"...communism is a system of "for the greater good of all through economic collaboration". I don't see offing a president in that economic plan. Now, if it was the govt - and who's to say it was or wasn't until the papers are released (which btw wouldn't surprise me if they are suddenly the victim of an office fire 24 hours before they are due to be unsealed) - but if it was the gov't then why do you have to off the guy? Don't like his politics? His term was up in 2 1/2 years and make sure he doesn't see the light of re-election (situation not likely). Don't like his power in the White House? Who do you really think is the President anyway - regardless of who gets elected. It certainly isn't the guy who gets on television all the time - his power amounts to an eff'ing signature - nothing more!! He can only sign what gets put in front of him...and we all know that takes over 300+ people to decide on first. Don't like him? Join the club of millions of American's who don't like their president, but deal with it!! Basically, this is just one big ramble - and almost a good one, but the debate as to who killed JFK is about as conclusive as who Britney Spears is eff'ing these days.....and we all know it ain't Enrique Iglesias!!! Or was that Christina...(who cares!!) K, enough out of me.....too many brain cells just died writing this!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  17. Do we know where she is going yet??? I know she is quitting Square1, but what's she going to do now??? I'll miss that friendly voice on the other end of the phone....I used to ring up just to hear her say 'hello, Square1, this is Lisa"....ahh....that voice!!

    the countdown

    How about the "Order of Bytchy Sky Sisters"?? They follow the Freefall&Party religion!! Sounds good to me....skybytch is OBSS#1 Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  19. well, I left at 6:30....approx. 22.5 hours after I walked into the office on Wednesday morning...but I left!! Now, after 5 hours of sleep - I am back in the office pluggin' away at it again. Is it any surprise that I can't concentrate on anything!!??? Well, it looks like we'll have to do something like that again this evening, but hopefully not NEARLY as late! Ahhh....the working life! All you students out there just don't know what you're missing....BE THANKFUL!!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  20. Whatever happened to the subtle sexiness of a Kiwi accent?!!! Hands down...the sexiest accent I've heard on a woman's voice! Second to that would be Irish, then Scottish. English accents are nice, but it's such a 'common' accent - having a distinction is much better!! (this would include a strong english accent...i.e, cockney, liverpuddlian, welsh) Kate Winslet and Minnie Driver get me stirred up!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr.

  21. Still Ragin'!! Nearly 4am....and only have one more presentation to finish up before I get to be homeward bound.... ....for a couple hours anyway!! Could really use a nap right now!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  22. Came into work at 9am on Wednesday morning.... Still here at 1:30am Thursday morning!! Got all the large coffee I can drink and my tunes....let's see if I can't get some mega-overtime...then spend it all on my new container!! I'll keep you posted if I leave, but it isn't looking likely!! This is my reward for being innovative and thinking outside the box....I get to do it ad nauseum!! anyone up late....you're welcome to keep me going!

  23. Sorry to hear that boobiecootie... my sister is in the same boat! Sucks all around I guess!! And colbrodie - I would love to transfer up to NC, but I have already pitched the idea of that to my boss (actually - it was austin, tx - so might have better luck if I move to charlotte) and he shot me down! I did have lots of fun on picnic tables....and anytime you want info about NZ - just let me know. I got loads of it!! Later sister!! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  24. Just thought I would bitch a little about having to be at work until GOD KNOWS WHEN so I can finish this presentation for my boss! What is it about corporate big wigs that think they can want something that took 5 days to construct and update - IN 18 F*^#ING HOURS!! Anyway, I hope all are well...and I feel a little better about it now! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr. Rigger, RN/BSN/Paramedic
  25. Thank you, Colbrodie!! My weekend was made much more fun because you and Tim were such cool people to chill with! I can't wait to jump with y'all again....perhaps we'll time it so our next x00 jump is the same!!! Congrats again on your 400th! Kahurangi e Mahearangi, Kiwi, RB #926, AFF-I, FAA Snr.
