If he was driving it's a DUI. Here's all I know for a fact! (as adult 21& over)There are two things going on DMV and courthouse The DMV wants to know a- was there probable cause b- was you over the legal limit c- was there an accident That is what determines getting drivers license He has 10 days to fill paper work for DMV stuff. Now, the courts are different, get a lawyer. The courts also have upto 1 full year to file the complaint/charges.. Mine actually went a full year!!! 7-4-2001 to 7-4-2002 ! YES 1 whole year! and was considered a missing complaint! I had a lawyer ~$1000 Every case is different, you cannot listen to anyone except, a lawyer!Basically, if he is under 21 and been drinking and driving, he's guilty, BUT a lawyer can change the whole lot!

I'm not "current" scuba diver, now. Most of my diving is Channel Islands (Ca) Deer Creek & Leo Carillo beach dives And once at Catalina Islands (little too far and expensive trip for me) I like it local, where I live. SSI Open Water Been on a wreck dive once. I would love to get into underwater video. It has always been a thought/dream to have my scuba diving pay for my skydiving..Unfortunately $ and procastination (a little) has detered that goal as of now.

I grew up watching his show! There's a good article about him and Mr. Rogers on snopes.com.. It kinda upset me that it was there, however.

How many Skydivers smoke? (legal tobacco products)
GARYC24 replied to Praetorian's topic in The Bonfire
Most "non-smokers" are basically ex-smokers. And anyone telling ex-smokers that they cannot quit is like a alcholic telling a AA member that they cannot quit. Everyone can quit. All will not quit. I work with a guy that enjoys smoking, he says he will never quit, and he will be one of those people blowing smoke through a hole in his throat, just like that lady in a TV commercial. Now, with that, not much to say.. But when someone tells me they are addicted and cannot stop, but wish they could,,well I don't buy it. Just say, you don't want to stop.. -
Aww. Ya know what I donated my account this week for "the cause" out there..(5 jumps) So, this is my off weekend! I WILL be there next weekend, however! Gary Calhoun

The only time I have went to WFFC was in 1991 "Love that Herc" C-130 Hercules (Actually was a Lockheed L100) I attended the Jerry Bird seminar and camp. Also Craig Buxton. I had a good time, only three days there! It stormed after a C130 jump, we had video and I never found the guy to get a dub from it! I would love to find out who it was and if there are any other videos from 1991 ! Gary Calhoun

I agree, too! But a present hourly rate I will stick to 3% (weekly) I am not ready to give up a little over $100 a month My next raise I will increase it.Until then I have to pay off some other bills, CCards, etc. It'll all be okay..

What does "Fluff" mean? (seriously) As is fluffy not stuffy? (non-seriously) While I'm at it..what does or why do people say..He's talking "smack"? To me smack meant "heroin" I know it's another word for 'shit' but where does smack come from? And what's the "schnizzle" stuff? I heard someone talking like that in the men's room while I was takin a 'whizzle!

My investment funds are in: AMERICAN FUNDS ® Growth investments- AMCAP Fund (amcpx) SMALLCAP World Fund (smcwx) Growth-and-income investment- Washington Mutual Investors fund (awshx) Equity-income investments- Capitol Income Builder ( caicx) Now, the Washington Mutual Investor Fund is what is referred to as a "nun-fund" their portfolio may not hold securities of companies whose earnings come mostly from alcohol or tobacco sales: The man speaking at company meeting suggested no more than 25% in this one..I decided %50 and spreded the others out. Also learned a little about one that higher highs and lower lows, non-US equities & US equities.aggressive, and the 'sleep at night" less aggressive ones.. Sheesh! I almost seem like I know what I'm talking about! hahahah NOT !

That was the vesting Plan Company matches 30% of what I contribute, before taxes, up to 10% of my pay. Profit-sharing: they may make a profit-sharing contribution to account, This may vary depending on profits. Withdrawals- ? i'm not sure, basic in-service, hardship,etc, stuff apply. From what I hear of other employees, this place does do that much and it's not the best plan. I'm just putting in what I do, forgetting about it. And keep on struggling and having fun spending $2000 a year skydiving..and that's not that much. 6-10 jumps per month!

Well, I just started a retirement plan with this company. And I still cannot imagine actually retiring! I look at it like this to do 100 skydives a year cost $2000 (20per jump). I am glad I putting something away. This book says:$20 every 2 weeks based on a 9% average annual return rate will be $5200 (my contribution) $8440(account value) Also, in regards to retirement: " experts say you need 70%-85% of your final annual salary to maintain a similar lifestyle. That means if you earning $50,000 at time of retire, you should expect to live on, lets say, 80% of that - or $40,000 (.80x$50,000) each year you're in retirement. And in not unheard of to spend a quater of your lifetime in retirement. Kinda depressing, eh? I think so, somewhat!

Yeah, they match.works like this: yr1- 0% yr2-20% then 40,60, 80..after 6years 100%. I have a small amount in BofA IRA. I will also increase as pay rate increases. I am trying to find local places to invest in "penny stock" I am wondering if I can turn some $50-$100 into $500-$1000 in a very short time..This will be a fun thing to do to keep pocket money for skydives and gear! But since I work all the time..I don't have time to search much for a local penny stock guy. I live in California.
