  1. Have a wonderful birthday Misskriss.
  2. That did bring a chuckle. I just hope it doesn't also bring the kind of responses that get this thread moved to the battle zone known as Speaker's Corner.

  3. Yes, based on the description of the film, the title and one or two other obvious indications, I was able to guess that it might be based on that video game. I haven't played it, but I still found the video funny. I was actually asking about the cinematography. Or was that derived from the game as well? I'm just curious if there were any other influences for the film aside from the game and Office Space.

  4. It was good! I'd be interested to know what their film inspiration was, as I'm sure they had some idea what they wanted to do with the basic cinematography based on something they had seen.

  5. Violate (v. t.) To treat in a violent manner; to abuse. (v. t.) To do violence to, as to anything that should be held sacred or respected; to profane; to desecrate; to break forcibly; to trench upon; to infringe. (v. t.) To commit rape on; to ravish; to outrage. Doesn't seem that there is one portion of the definition that doesn't include violence. Edited for spelling.

  6. Maybe it's the early morning accretions in my eyes, but it looks like "Barbie" is flipping the world the bird.

  7. Nic, your # is 15, and don't let anyone try to bribe you for it. Clint my friend, how's life treating you? Don't sweat not being able to make it out there. You'll still be welcomed warmly when you do. As for leaving the old job, it was high time I made my way back into the world of the "adequately compensated for employment". I took a job as a network engineer elsewhere. I'm curious to know what they said to you when you called asking for me at the old place. They weren't too happy I left, but they couldn't match the more than double my salary that this new place offered. Oh, did I mention full benefits, 401K and good vacation and sick time? Yeah, 180 degrees out from the last job. A jailbird says "It's a GOOD thing."

  8. Tried to view it, but was met with the dreaded "page cannot be displayed" error. There's probably a specific filename you need to include after that last / so that we can all enjoy the file.

  10. "Lids" at the mall, and the embroidery stall in the food court already has the SONIC BEEF pattern in their system. Of course, you could always take the pic John posted of his if you need a reference. Yes, navy blue is the color we've chosen. We're all about the solidarity...and lard.

  11. Hang on there. I used to be a network operations manager for a large company, and we had a dual-os environment, NT for applications servers and Novell for file and print servers. The Novell side of the house rarely had a problem, and if it DID, it at least tried to repair ITSELF and let you know how many times it had to partially abend. Any time my NT servers went down, day, night, vacation, it was back to work I trudged to manually restart and repair the NT side of the house. Of course, it did get a little dicey once, coming in to see that my main file server (for a large corporation) had a "" before the prompt.

  12. Looks like you and J had a great jump, from those pictures. I wish Cora and I could have been there, but we just couldn't get the time off. If J thinks we're ready by next year, you won't be able to stop us. Glad you had a great time, Leroy. See you this weekend. P.S. We heard that John's video took 4th place, and that Cora and I are in it. How cool is THAT?

  13. That's RIGHT! "Hairy-backed beasts in thongs" probably won't be a title, but you can bet that'll be the content. Boobies fake or no boobies fake, I'm not tempting Fate.

  14. I only have one BASE jump to my name, but that was after a year of asking questions and waiting until the people who could be my mentors watched me skydive and determined that I was ready for a relatively "safe" jump. From what you are saying, it sounds like the potential mentors in your area are not responsive at this stage in your skydiving experience. Perhaps you could contact people who were mentored in your area and get some ideas from them, as well as letting them know that you would like to start when they (potential mentors) have watched you fly the previously mentioned canopies and land them safely. It's also a good idea to do ground crew on as many BASE jumps as local jumpers will allow. It doesn't cost a dime to offer to go with these people and perform necessary functions from the ground. It'll give you better perspectives on things as you go through all of the same briefings and landing area walkthroughs as the jumpers. Plus, you can video them from the ground and watch body position, canopy control and other important aspects of the jump to compare with what potential mentors will brief you on. My first jump was cake: large landing areas on all sides, no support wires to avoid and a mentor who took his time detailing the jump, landing area and safety issues. I don't plan on doing any more BASE jumps until my mentor feels it's time. It's all about patience, and if you don't have it/can't exercise it, experienced BASE jumpers will tend to shy away from you...with good reason. Ask for guidance, show a willingness to wait and learn as much as you possibly can and don't pester the hell out of experienced BASE jumpers and you'll find people willing to guide you on the right paths.

  15. Okay, I'd like to provide an update and welcome some new members to the fold. This weekend saw Zesty Beef, Beef Tenderfoot and Chipped Beef (#13) join the ranks at Beef Base Alpha. Beef Tenderfoot narrowly avoided the moniker "Smeagol Beef", but since that name tends to be associated with male critters, we shied away from it...for now. My brain is oatmeal, so witticisms are nil at this point. Perhaps once I've regained my faculties, I'll have more to say, but for now, suffice it to say that these new members are welcomed with open arms and lots of gravy. Nic, since you are hatching the European chapter of the BEEF, your home DZ (or where you feel most comfortable, even a mobile chalet) is Beef Base Bravo. Carry on.

    Need HELP

    You could always go to the Red Meat comic strip and peruse those for a few more hours. I just got to work a few minutes ago, so I apologize for the delay. I'm pulling twelves next week for the "stuff" going on here. And wait a second, I distinctly remember watching a Sgt perusing hot-or-not pics at the JTF data hut, so I can't imagine there would be too terribly many restrictions on your browsing...save for the porn, of course.

  23. Okay, you lost me there for a moment. Are you looking to BUY one or have you bought one that you want to have a DZ use for skydiving? Some clarification would help us help you.

  24. Yeah, my post was mostly just a joke, but I also didn't want your post to disappear without at least one reply. I'm just odd that way.
