  1. So JP, are you ready to learn how to snowboard. Derek will teach you, I promise it will be a quick class. "Just point the board down hill, the faster you go the easier it is to turn." Very true statement, but not good if you don't know how to stop. Fly it like you stole it!

    Cohabitation

    With all these statistics I wonder what the age groups were for these people. I was married at 21 and divorced 3 years later, we moved in together 3 months before the wedding because it made no sense for me to sign a new lease for 3 months. I don't blame those 3 months on our marriages failure, I blame my age and immaturity, my growing up and realizing we didn't want the same things in life. Now at 31 I've been with Derek 4.5 years and living together 3.5 years. We don't care if we get married or not, we toss the idea around every once in awhile but it never goes beyond "Well if you want to do it I don't want a diamond I want a pink sapphire". Getting married isn't going to change anything, it's not like it's going to magically teach him to pick up his trash off the coffee table. Saying living together is what caused the marriage to fail is a cop-out. Look at the age of the couple, look at their communication skills, look at their problem solving skills, look at the whole picture. Fly it like you stole it!
  3. I love a standard because of the control of when the shift happens, my Mazda drives me nuts because it shifts for fuel economy not performance. Luckily it does have a semi-manual (able to use all 5 gears) that I can switch it into that will let me control when to shift but much easier since it doesn't have a clutch like the standards. This is a life saver in the mountains when the car wants to keep going into 5th and you know you are only on the flat spot for a second before starting the next climb. Fly it like you stole it!
  4. She is so cute, she definately is going to be a big dog. Here is a great read on what to expect from her at this age. I am your puppy Fly it like you stole it!
  5. Answers are from Hooknswoop (Derek) The tunnel in CO does have 8 sides but the panels are larger than the ones in Orlando. Derek says it's measured flat to flat, and it is definately bigger than orlando. It will feel more open than orlando because there are less panels. Oh and you will be happy to know the bathroom is just down one set of stairs it's no big deal to get to between sessions. Fly it like you stole it!

  8. His normal rigger is an anal bastard who won't let something out of his shop that isn't in perfect working order. He also only does the block method of testing pins, so there are no worries that the pin wasn't checked right. I think this is an attention to detail issue, he is use to a rigger that is very detailed oriented and has just experienced one that is not so much. I have a feeling someone is about to start putting some effort back into getting his riggers ticket. Fly it like you stole it!

    Cranberry Beer

    Guinness is actually a light beer, not in color or taste, but in calories and carbs. Something like 125 calories and 9.9 grams of carbs while Sam Adams light has 124 calories and 9.7 grams of carbs. My vote is for the guiness if you are counting calories, plus it is like a meal, very filling. Fly it like you stole it!

    Cranberry Beer

    Well it's not like budwiser is a prize either. Personally I like wheat beers so I'm not a fan of SA or Bud. Fly it like you stole it!

    Cranberry Beer

    Supposedly the Sam Adams light isn't as light as say a bud light it's actually more like a regular beer, but just lighter than the rest of the Sam Adams line up. So tell me how you like it after you try it. Fly it like you stole it!

    DZ.com down

    It happened a few years ago, people were trying to find back doors in, IMing like crazy, and pretty much loosing it. A cheer when up around the world when it came back on. Fly it like you stole it!
  14. I agree with this in that the cat needs to get used to dogs at a young age. I introduced Mem a 2 year old Persian to my 7 year old gsd/blue heeler/husky(?) mix. Well there were many chases at first because Fox has a strong prey drive, but Mem had lots of hiding places and after a few months they would sleep together on the couch. Now with Mem being 6 I brought home Sherpa (9 months old) high energy very very high prey drive. Cat gets chased a little more often but just as often egged the dogs on first by smacking them in the face with his tail. Once the dogs accepted the cat as part of the pack, it really was no big deal. What is funny is if another dog comes over and tries to mess with Mem, Sherpa and Fox will gang up on it, because no one messes with their cat but them. Fly it like you stole it!
  15. Fox is a grazer she is perfectly happy to eat a little here and there all day long. Sherpa is an inhaler he sees food and tries to get it down his throat as fast as he can. It actually took a few days to get her on the twice a day eat it all at once schedule needed for him. Now she still eats a lot slower than he does and I have to watch for her to be done to pick up her dish because otherwise she will guard it from him which normally ends in him getting bit.

    Motorola RAZR

    Say I did get one - what do I do with the old phone? Will Cingular and other carriers recycle for me? Derek got a motorola (not the razr) and in the box came a bag to recycle upto 3 phones, so both of the ones we replaced went in the back along with one I replaced 4 years ago that I still had. Then they were shipped back to motorola. Fly it like you stole it!
