  1. My husband and I love to go winetasting and a lot of the wineries were telling us that they are going to the screwtop, more economical and works just as well. So in the future a lot of the upper grade wines will have screwtops. Yikes...now how are we gonna be able to tell the difference between an expensive and inexpensive wine...oh...I guess we could taste it . I was in Napa about a month ago and the reason they are going to a screw top or synthetic cork is due to cork taint. Cork taint is caused by bacteria in the cork and happens in about 5% of wines and I have had wines that have been tainted the difference in taste is HUGE and you can smell it. For the higher end wineries the cost is about the same to change from cork to screwtop because they would have to change the bottles a long with the closing mechanism. The ones I talked to are going to a synthetic cork over the screwtop. Fly it like you stole it!

  3. Just beware that you may have trouble staying warm on cool nights. It's only your body heat warming the place up, and air matresses suck even more heat from you. I reccomend getting a fleece blanket to put between you and the air matress, it does help prevent some body heat loss. And yes the 1st wind storm you will wonder what state you are going to land in when it decides to take off. Fly it like you stole it!
  4. How many people will be staying in that tent? Fly it like you stole it!

  9. Even if you are breakfast? Sparky Then he can stay till lunch. Then he is out the door, well unless he also walks the dog and does dishes. Fly it like you stole it!
  10. If you can find it in your area, emergen-C is better than gatoraid for electrolytes and aiding in hydration. It's what we use during adventure races since gatoraid has so many sugars which can make it hard to drink when you are on your 20th hour of hard going. http://www.nutritiongeeks.com/details.asp?ProductID=8545&ProdgroupID=8513&type=GoogleAdWordsSearch&adgroup=Emergen-C&kw=Emergen+C Fly it like you stole it!

  12. Just FYI, those aren't real bike shorts, they are missing the huge pad between her legs. Fly it like you stole it!
  13. Other than the sperm part, it's true for women also. I know many biker girls who complain about numbness and loss of sensation. Fly it like you stole it!
  14. What kind of weights are you using? If you have a vest I recommend a weight belt, it puts the led down by your hips which helps you stay head high and able to reach grips easier while arching. Fly it like you stole it!
  15. Every breakup is different, just as every separation is different. The wife may still love him, but what does he feel for his wife? To many questions, but if the paperwork is being or has been filed that pretty much means it's over. Fly it like you stole it!
  16. I'm the one building one for a soon to be master rigger, and I have absolutely no problem with people doing this for others. For us it's just a way to add a little extra service for our customers since we have all thier info anyway. Derek doesn't skydive anymore so we don't have the problem of people at the DZ asking when they are due. I orginally created the database and reports when Derek was the head rigger for a DZ and they wanted to know who was out of date, now I just have to tweak it to show who is coming due in the next 2 weeks. If you have the time go for it, some people can never have to many reminders anyway. Fly it like you stole it!
  17. What's clicker training all about? Please tell me it works with cats. In fact, please tell me anything works with cats. You just have to figure out what drives your cat, for me it's water and ice cubes. Once you know that you can get them to do all sorts of things. Mine will come when called, meow on command, and do cute paws (paws at the air) for ice. Don't ask me why ice and water are his main drivers, but they are. Fly it like you stole it!
  18. PM hooknswoop or myself. Colors depend what the local climbing stores have for 1 inch tape, we use climbing tape since it's easier on the fur than riser material and just as strong. Of course if you want riser material you can have it, but only in black. We just haven't figured out pricing yet.
  19. I don't agree with pinch collars either, but it's not my dog. Fox, the dog in all the other pictures is well trained, no need for anything other than a regular collar and a leash. Mary, If it wasn't 10:30 your collar would be done, but it's to late to pound a grommet in, so here is a sneak peak. I'll post a good picture tomorrow night. Fly it like you stole it!
  20. Is there some fucking rule to posting on threads after a certain amount of time? I diddn't see it. I diddn't look at the date, I did a search and found this thread, if its so dated why did you read it????? Whoa...take a step back take a deep breath. There now don't you feel better, hookitts just playing, you don't see very old threads pop up very often. Fly it like you stole it!
  21. Hehehe...that sounds like Derek and I.... "Don't make me lean over and turn off your wireless antenna" As we sit next to eachother on the couch posting. Fly it like you stole it!
  22. who in the heck is "POOKEY BEAR?" That would be your rigger. Fly it like you stole it!
  23. BWAHAHAHA.....yep I learned Derek and I are still on the same page. Give each other lots of space, and if you fuck it up you will get your ass kicked. Fly it like you stole it!
  24. One very happy customer, of course she would be happer if I let the cat out of the bedroom. Dave, Call Derek anytime, even if you need master rigger work done he can do it since he is working under a DPRE to get his master ticket. Fly it like you stole it!
  25. Then don't do it, wait till they have had time to heal, which if it was sometihng like a marriage it could be a year before they are ready to really try again. Fly it like you stole it!
