  1. Weird coincidence: I just finished a lovely meal by one of those wonderful establishments. Yet, one quick note: I'm vegetarian. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  2. To my friends: "Yeah, come on over for a party...oh, sorry for curling your hair there with the shock!" I'm tired of spending loads of money on trying to cure my neighbor's blight. If -she- would buy the product I'd give it a try. Not trying to sound harsh, but there's been literally hundreds of dollars spent (by me) to try and keep the irritant at bay. Nothing has had lasting results. I've told my neighbor about all these tries, but she, herself, hasn't done anything to try and correct her pet's number, or habits. At least I've been a good neighbor and spoken with her about it and not just called Animal Control or bought a pellet gun. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  3. Nice looking model of a plane. http://www.aerospace-technology.com/projects/dash8/dash89.html A very sad day indeed . . . ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  4. Had a friend's brother fall out of a tree, onto her horse's fence shock wire. One leg on either side of the wire! He'll never forget that event, ever! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  5. Interesting idea. Wonder how it would go over, smelling like Easter at my front door year 'round... ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  6. Had a fido shock that worked really really well in keeping my dogs inside the back yard. I had a dog that I swear his legs were made of springs! He'd jump over my 6 foot fence! I got the fido shock and it worked wonders to keep him in. After 5 years of constant use I decided that he was older, fixed, and didn't have the wander-lust anymore. I shut the fido shock off. 2 days later he was up and over the fence again! It went back on. I think I gave it away to a friend years ago, but this is an idea. However, not only do the cats come up and over my backyard fence, they come -under- the fence as well, at the gate. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  7. Got the "Scarecrow" a couple of years ago to protect my front lawn from the poopers. It worked for a little while, then the cats just ignored it. It's in the garage now, since it doesn't work anymore. Found THIS WEB SITE, but it doesn't offer advice on how to cure the problem when there's multiple offenders.

  9. Memories of begging friends and family to buy fruit cakes or versitron candles (for the cause) still haunt me from my childhood. No wonder I don't like asking for donations for any fund raisers still. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  10. I've just about had it with the neighborhood cats that swarm the area. For the past year I've put up with whomever is pissing on my front door by cleaning it up and trapping the few that allow themselves to be lured into the humane cat trap. Tom cats. Now that my beautiful dog has gone her way after 15 years of dear and valued friendship the cats have taken up roost on my back porch as well. And yes, they are now pissing on my back door and porch also, as of last night! I've spoken with my next door neighbor who 'owns' most of these cats (who can really ever own a cat) and she's aware that there is a problem. Now that the fiends are destroying the back of my house I've put in another call to her to try and find a solution. She hasn't called back yet. So....my plan is to keep trapping the buggers and taking them elsewhere. That will take time, I know. They are feral cats. In the mean time, I'm up for suggestions on HOW to clean the piss off my house and porch (custom wood doors and painted cement porches) so they perhaps stop puddling and spraying and perhaps just leave my house and home alone! Is there such a method that works? Something that doesn't get tracked in my house, look unsightly, or have a stink of its own? Something that lasts more than a day? The cat problem has been going on for years but it's just been the last 15 months that it's gotten frightfully out of hand. (yes, her feral cats have had 4 more litters, even though she -claims- all her 20+ cats are fixed. Bollox!) Oh, and for those of you that have read my rants before on the subject, the pooping on my lawn and flower beds is still going on, but I scoop it up with a shovel and put it back on my neighbor's property for her to dispose of now. < Sigh > ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  11. Any news today? Or today? Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  12. I see your parents and I'll raise you my grandparents! They bought an Electrolux 2100 over 30 years ago, I inherited it and it's still running strong! Gets my dog's hair up off the carpet without a problem. Even has a hepa filter in it.
  13. I'll second that question. A D-bag -is- sized for the container, not the canopy. If the canopy is too large for the bag, then a larger -container- is needed. Or a smaller main. And Evelyn! Wow! I can't imagine such a decision tree you had to deal with, given what presented itself. Yes, I would have continued the cutaway that was started. Once the cable is started to pull then you should be committed to completing the task. Who knows if the main risers have been compromised in any way once that process has started. I agree with those who advise you get back in the air in a gentle way and pull high enough to play again. I had a scary cutaway during JFTC 2002 and had to get right back on the horse then. It was the jumps -after- the event concluded that had mental demons in them. You'll know when the time is right to slip that rig back up over your shoulders. Until then, relax and do whatever you'd like to. Maybe wind tunnel for a bit? You're a go-getter now, not the timid person who started skydiving a few years ago. You'll know when the timing is right. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  14. In the Bahamas: http://www.gunpointbahamas.com/ Imagine being stuck on that island with Jennifer Anniston... "Gun Point is Currently Unavailable for Rent" Damn... ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  15. Still wondering where this place "Gunpoint" is located. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

  17. Put that in Speaker's Corner and you'll get -lots- of explanations. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  18. Think of it this way, no more having to deal with "Can I get a Dub?" and then dirty looks when you say "5 Dollars". Now -that's- a more positive way to look at it. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  19. 'tis true. Guess every cameraflyer -must- carry around a computer with them now. I've done that for years, but that was for just another way of medium play. Now it's a completely necessary step. Ah, the way of progress... ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  20. No 'inputs'. Only 'outputs'. Per the spec sheet you linked to. So...good luck sharing straight across from camera to camera... And yeah......1394 is officially dead. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  21. Yep. Just a little rock-n-roll here at home. Interesting coordinates, though. That's right where I work! Wonder how they're doing right now... ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  22. Agreed, and she is in therapy for it. We all hope it helps. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  23. This is quite off topic, but I wish more people had his attitude. For instance, I have a 61 year old patient who wants to 'sit in the corner and suck her thumb', even though there is nothing wrong with her. It's her decision but it's so very sad. She feels 'old' and believes life is quite over and she doesn't want to do anything anymore. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  24. Good question. In our case, no. In other cases, where there may be restricted areas....might want to ask first. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
  25. Glad to read your taking responsibility for the error, instead of pinning it on the pilot like previously stated.
