    Ugh

    Don't worry. I had a similar situation 18 months ago. I was hit by a driver with no DL and no insurance. My car was totaled and my insurance left me owing $1000+ towing+storage. That would not have been so bad but I lost my job earlier that week. I was left with no money, no job, and no car. It was tough but I worked through it. It seems like bottomless pit but you make make it out. You jump out of perfectly good airplanes for fun, this is nothing...
  8. The song sounds like 70s music. I caught a short clip of the song on an ad for the movie Dive In. I think it is from the movie From Wings Came Flight.
  9. I am trying to find who performs the song Standing on the Edge. Anyone know who it is? This is all I can remember I'm standing on the edge With a vision in my head My body screams release me My dreams they must be fed Thanks in advance.
  10. Spending also creates new revenues that would not have otherwise have been realized. Think what would of happened if the GWB administration cut spending and raised taxes to balance budget. We would have 50% unemployment, deflation, and the rich would profit by selling to offshoe relief agencies; that would be needed to help American refuges.
  11. I think the following entries should also be included in the timeline. Just to add context. http://www.nationalreview.com/levin/levin.asp In order to find the truth we need to look futrther into history. Maybe our government is not lying about Iraq's capabilities. Just a posibility worth further examination.
  12. In Illinois it is not odd to not move out of your home state. There are lots of jobs.
  13. You have to tape the conversation and post it here..
  14. When I have had the thought that "this is my last jump", I am not thinking that something bad is gong to happen. I just am doubting my motivation for learning to skydive. It last from the pin check in the plane until I get in the door. I like the feeling, it remins me the importance on gear/handle checks.
  15. I liked Jonny Cash's cover of NIN "Hurt" and DM "Own Personal Jesus".
  16. Hello I have only nine jumps in sor far. On almost evey jump I tell myself(voice in head) that it is the last. Strange thing is that once I get to the door, all the fear is replaced by thoughts of what I have to do (How to Exit). When back on the ground I cannot get on the next load fast enough. I am glad I am not the only student to have doubts on the plane ride up.
  17. Thanks for sharing and reminding. I did not lose anyone close that day but I sure felt like I did, I think we all felt that way. My thoughts and prayers are with those who lost somebody on that day.
  18. From the 80s I remeber the cheezy movie "RAD" . I was into BMX when younger and loooking back it kinda the "cutaway" of the sport. LOL..
  19. I was feeling the same as Wrongway until reading this post. Thanks for the adjustment in perspective...
  20. I was the one who bought TheShrubber his ELD. I didnt think she was that bad?? LOL The look on his face as she drug him away was worth whatever I get in return, except x-vestite clown strippers. I am not into the tit-ee bar thing and dont go to often. I have to pass the club on way to DZ and my car always steers towards it. For the LDs at this club, the dancers take you to a semiprivate couch thing upstairs.That was the "First" time getting an LD with shorts on. There was a lot of contact I have been missing out on. I also made her blush!! The dancer who gave me my "LD" asked about skydiving for a whole song before my LD. I did try to get her to try it if that counts for anything. She knew we skydivers after asking another friend about his pin necklace.
