  1. Damn, wish we were there. Those Munich beer tents look like one of the best parties ever.
  2. I was at the dental hygienist yesterday. She asked "So do you have a fun weekend coming up?" "Yeah."
  3. If all the U.S. guys start feeling better about that, it's gonna kill the market for 4WD trucks and lift kits.
  4. Jealous. Wish we were there with you. No other place I've been looks like Venice. It's a visual feast. I've only spent a weekend in Paris, too, and that wasn't enough. Have a great time.
  5. They sometimes grow out of that. Dated a few women in high school and then after we graduated. Things changed.
  6. In my early years, great reflexes and luck. Now it's good judgement and experience . . . and luck. Like Gann said in his book, "Fate is the Hunter."
  7. Raised wrong or broken in wrong, one or the other. . . Interesting choice of words. I'm sorry. I should have said "introduced." I wondered if my cowboy slang would be offensive. Yeah, sexual abuse/rape are very bad things. Any woman that experiences that needs to get a lot of help to get thru it/over it. Very bad stuff and too much of it out there.
  8. But a lot of those little Asian girls may not want much more than the four. Many of them are quite, uhmmm . . . petite. And that North Korea thing explains Kim Jong what's his name pretty well. I can't believe Ecuador and England surpass the U.S. Oh well, those are just averages. Good thing I'm not governed by the bell curve.

  10. I love Venice. We only spent a few days there and would love to go back. Hell yeah, do it. Have you been there before?
  11. Sometimes people ask Vskydiver what's the secret to a good marriage. They're expecting "communication" or "friendship" or something like that. They are often pretty surprised by her answer.
  12. Bad marriages = bad sex Good marriages = good sex I wouldn't know about after a divorce. Never done that, not plannig to. . .
  13. Thousands of $$$? Holy crap, I should have bought it from him in person at Boeing field 10 years ago for $50, I think it was. My son Brett, the new A license jumper in our family, was with me and said I should. One paycheck, four kids, I took a pass. Good looking book, though.
  14. Asleep at the wheel. Hey, let's make this a game. Take a shot every time they say "jobs". You'll be trashed in no time.
  15. That looked more like foreplay to me. The fun will be when it all cums out in a hurry.
  16. Exactly. The fatal incident in Elsinore was a VERY experienced wing suiter. Any ideas?
  17. Better education, yes, but two jumps tucked up to prove you can do it? Nope. I think just getting the word out to DZO's to start education wingsuiters and policing the exits might work fine.
  18. I've taken a number of 70+ year olds. None that I remember being in really good shape but most had a great, fun attitude. That made it fun for me.
  19. Yeah, that was fun. He was smiling the whole time, totally chill.
  20. It's all about the marketing necessity of wringing the last hypothetical ounce of performance out of a design. Enclosing as much of the harness as you can reduces drag, but at what cost? Well, you can no longer access you cutaway and reserve handles in an emergency. Not a consideration for a base rig, but bad news for a standard rig. Maybe that suit shouldn't be used out of an airplane with a standard rig. I would never bet my life on a zipper working quickly.
  21. No, that could still snag some lines . . . SOMEHOW!
