The Dizzy Hot Bods Males? Hey Nope it would be the semi naked mods. Swimsuits or somat and maybe Sangiro in the middle with a HOTSTICK. BP

Maybe if there are enough votes, someone will create one for charity or somat. I know which one I'd buy. BP

I liked both but Straight is the younger looking. But I dunno if that is to do with the hair or the lighting though. It would be much more easy to judge if ummmm you were in the pool behind ya? BP

Agree with that. And ummm change all your cards too. In fact, be sure to protect every asset you have. BP

IMO I think it is money well spent. In addition to highligting any stability issues it will expose your body and senses to the FEEL of the wind. I am not sure if there have been any studies on this but I would be interested to know if tunnel time prior to AFF has any effect on Sensory Overload occurences. SO occurs when the 5 senses are bombarded with signals. So my thinking is if you can aquaint some of these senses to the FEEL of the wind prior to a jump then MAYBE it might help avoid an SO during a jump. I dont know enough about that though, so would be interested to hear other thoughts. BP

Seriously?? That would be brilliant. Although the way the weather has been, that could be 2012. BP

I would understand this if the problem is about attitude (ie to own and others safety) But if it is a problem with ability or confidence, I dont understand why such a terminal statement like "maybe this sport is not for you" should be used. Surely something more like advising the person to go away and spend some time in a tunnel to improve skills and confidence and then come and try again. Or better still offer to coach the student in a tunnel and progress confidence and skills that way. BP

Tunnel Time Advice for a returning jumper - Airkix
bluepill replied to bluepill's topic in Wind Tunnels
I have not jumped for a long time and am slowly getting "my sh*t" together to get back into the air. I have made 70 jumps, but this was long ago and so one of my first steps is to get some tunnel time to rediscover and brush up on my skills. I have had a look at Airkix website, but I am lost as to what would be best for me. I dont think one of their starter packages would suit me, but I understand that i am not a "Pro-flyer" also. Someone gave me the number of an instructor there to discuss. But I want to get the maximum benefits I can for the money I spend. Anyone got any ideas? Should I just do a package or should I get personal 1 on 1 with someone. Better yet, if anyone has made a similar return from a lay off, what did you do? Thanks for any advice. BP -
is it Support Your Local Sherif?

Oh great, so much for my smart idea! Yeh but think how happy it will make her. Rather than just being food orientated, now she will be able to have a meal and a show. BP

Yeh a very young male would get on OK. Just make sure they have their own seperate toys as well as ones to share. As for feeding put 2 plates down near each other, 1 for him 1 for her. Sure she will probably finish before him, and may try to bully in on his food. He will porbably make it clear to her, that it is HIS food. But if he does not then just gently let her know yourself. By the way. I did something similar a few years back for a member of the family. She had a female cat (Sophie) who was totally food orientated and well, FAT. We got a young tabby male who was very lively. Sophie played with him for a while but eventually she was content to just sit and watch him play. Now she is bigger than ever. In fact its worse now, cos the male has grown up and goes out catches stuff and brings it back for her to eat. I call her JABBA. BP

that's a very interesting question indeed. over the course of this discussion here it also came up with me. i believe that there should be quite a couple of pre-dispositions for a healthy and happy relationship to take place. those will change over time as not only the relationship itself, also each of the partners are evolving. i dont think you can just be and all is good. altough just "being", taken the evolution of the equation, is what things do make work. Not sure I worded my question right so i will use an example. (which does not make it any clearer) Say your driving along on a long journey in a car. Along the journey the car breaks down from time to time, tyres wear out, fuels runs out etc, etc. Now you know when it breaks down and you know something needs to be done to get back on the road again. So is your journey more enjoyable if you know everything there is to know to maintain the car on the journey (e.g. You know all about the engine etc) or is it more enjoyable not knowing and tackling the problems as and when they come up (e.g. just reconnect some funny looking hose in the engine and off you go again). I kind of agree with that. Change is inevitable. If it is worded as "I'm trying to change (you) to how I think or want you to be" Then that definately fails every time. Because sooner or later the balance not only in the relationshsip but individually becomes skewed to the point of breaking. But if it is worded as "We accept we ARE changing together and individually and the new US will grow into something better than before. Or at least that is the hope" Then that would probably work. BP

Yup, yup yup and yup. I think for some people it really is real. They are at peace with who they are and what they are about and importantly, have an understanding of the balance of their values and beliefs. But again there are, where we feel NOT at peace and we have little idea about what we are truly about and again importantly have no understanding of balancing our values and beliefs or if they do, struggle to find any balance. This is where (I think) the majority of people probably are. What I mean is we have a perception of what we are and are mostly at peace with it. But we probably don’t truly believe in ourselves or fully understand what the right balance of our value and beliefs should be. And often that balance is weighted wrongly. Some people are ok with this (blissful ignorance), but for some it troubles them a lot. Yeh it kind of makes sense to me. A bit like Jerry Springfer’s farewell “Take care of yourself, and each other”. And I think that that is what kind of also what makes a good relationship. I mean we do not have to get ourselves into the always happy state or even to be psychologically “perfect” to be in a relationship that will work. Perhaps we just need a partner that will “compliment” our own balance and theirs. The true mystery off course is knowing what that would be and identifying it in someone when it comes along. A quesion I would throw out is... Does it really help, knowing or trying to understand what makes a relationship? or is it better to simply BE and let nature take it's course? BP

Maybe thats what you thought with the brain in your head. But the brain in your dumbstick can see clearly through the smoke even with beer gogles on to identify that what was actually stood in front of you were a couple of 2 baggers. (A bag to go over their heads. And a bag to go over yours, in case their bag falls off). BP

Didn't he marry his daughter? See... it's raising some pretty good questions already. It wasn't his daughter (that's gross). It was his under-age step-daughter, silly. How old was she? Thought she was 17 is that under age? Arent they they are still together so HUMOUR must count for alot. BP

OMG there is a world out there. Sounds like you just took the red pill. BP

phewwww...... I thought you were gonna say Wank BP

Ok well I think the most important things are: A willingness to love and be loved. Flexibility to meet, adapt and overcome challenges together. Values and beliefs that are either similar or at least compliments a partners values and beliefs. Being trusting and trustworthy. Being prepared to work at creating a successful and mutually rewarding relationship on all levels (financially, spiritually etc) The point is, NO relationship is easy. They always take hard work to make them truly work and you have to both be prepared to do that hard work. Rather than live in a fantasy that it will all be great and that relationship should not need work. They do, they always do. BP

"Love is the answer - but while you're waiting for the answer, sex raises some pretty good questions." - Woody Allen BP

Depends on what the expectation of the relationship is:- Long term (everlasting) Medium term? (may go somewhere but both not really committed) Short term? (short passionate flings) I think there are fundamental differences in what makes each one work. Particularly a long term relationship. BP

Battered PLAICE 'n' chips.... hmmmm hmmmmm. plus its a good chat up line in the chippy too. Girl in chippy: What would you like? Me: What fish you got? Girl: We got cod, haddock and plaice. Me: Is that your plaice or mine? BP

Global Warming is a phenomena created to make you part with more money to pay for fuel and feel guilty about doing it at the same time. Meanwhile the government can introduce green taxes and shit like that so that they can raise more cash to counteract all the lost revenue from the smoking ban. And we cos we apparantly beilev in the global warming rubbish buy into it as well and say oh thank you for taxing us and raising fuels costs. And all becuase we saw some poor polar bear stranded on an iceberg and think we are to blame. What ya got to say about that? That should do it. BP
