  1. Even though I was born in and lived in Dallas most of my life, being a Dallas Cowboy fan since the franchise started in 1960 and hating the Eagles more than the Redskins all this time, I hope the Eagles win the Superbowl this year. I really hoped they would go last year but they just can't seem to get past the NFC Championship game. I guess I'm a Philly fan this year. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  2. I watched a some pre season games and the enforcement seemed kinda harsh. If they're that strict during the regular season, man, the games are gonna be rather tedious to watch. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  3. Because of the mugging Rodney Harrison (Patriots DB) put on Marcus Pollard (Colts receiver) in the AFC title game last year. Didn't know that until I read an article about it in the Dallas Morning News this morning. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  4. Well, after you do, that'll make the decision to quit or not real easy. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  5. Your picture looks like the two cats that came to live with me ten years ago, Max (black) and Augie (white). Augie disappeared July 4, 1998 but Max is still with us and doing well. So sorry for your loss. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  6. Yep, I'm living proof that this method works. My rig slid all the way down to my elbows before I got it back up on my shoulders, threw the PC and crossed my arms as tight as I could. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  7. I have yet to find a stock seat on a cruiser type MC that was worth crap. Every bike I've owned, the first thing done to it was replace the stock seat with a Corbin. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  8. My Magna had one on it when I got it. I replaced it with a Corbin because the Mustang seemed to sit me closer to the handlebars than I like and was somewhat uncomfortable after about an hour of riding. The Corbin sits about three inches further back and that's a more comfortable position for me. Don't get butt burn nearly as quick on the Corbin. Just my experience. though.

  9. Yes, it sure is possible. Here's an article about parachutes and thunderstorms. http://www.weatherwise.org/97oncutlip.html The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  10. Four very close friends died while jumping during the time I was active in skydiving. Sure, I was saddened by their passing but always considered that, what the Hell, we all knew the risks and had accepted them. I just never let it bother me that much. Might sound cold but death is just part of the deal. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  11. OK, if no one else is gonna say it, you should have told her "I killed your kitten last night". The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  12. Tatonka. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  13. The year (91?) that the South African C-130 was in Quincy. A guy thought it would be cool to attach a Paradactyl in in his rig backward and fly it that way. He jumped it like that and at about 300 ft, while making a turn to final, he collided with another jumper that he didn't see, they entangled and both bounced about 50 yards away from where I was standing. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  14. While in the Air Force I knew a guy who brushed his teeth with Comet to see if it would whiten them. He spent a lot of time at the dentist after that. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  15. It was the Mr. / Ms. Nude DFW Pageant locale. My first nudist camp dive. Damn, you were quite the nudist back the weren't you? The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  16. Congrats Russ, doesn't seem possible that it's been that many years since the day you told us about cutting the umbilicle with the pull up cord. Ahhh, I saw the Blubonnet nude jump in your logbook, what a weird and fun day that was.. What was "DFW Retreat"? The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  17. It can, but doesn't have to. I drove from El Paso, TX to Carlsbad. Toured the caverns, then went on to New Orleans. 27 hours total. Of course I was hallucinating by the end of that drive. I've hallucinated in Carlsbad Caverns a couple of times. But seriously, if you're time limited the Sandia Peak Tramway is a trip in itself and doesnt take much time to do.

  18. "Fudge It With Budget". The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  19. "Careful with that axe, Eugene" The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  20. I got to meet Sunshine last Saturday at WFFC and she gave me a big hug!!!!
  21. "Beach Blanket Bingo". 1965 with Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  22. Seen over a urinal at a truckstop in Provo, Utah: Stand a little closer padnah, that's not a Winchester in your hand. Seen this in several places: In case of nuclear attack, duck under the urinal, it hasn't been hit yet. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.

    waking up 50

    Hell, I'm 59 on August 10th. I think I'll push for 60 to be the next 50. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  24. You don't. You just need to have B license equivalency to register as a jumper. Fuck, anybody got gear to loan??? The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
