  1. ....DON'T CLICK HERE! I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  2. Are you sure it wasn't a merkin? You tell me.... I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  3. First date with the girl I'm currently seeing. That or the mullet wig she bought me as a present.
  4. Well, I just skimmed the forum for "star wars," before posting. Anyway, that is one BAD ASS friggin trailer. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  5. This is probably a repost, but CLICK HERE to check out the coolest friggin Star Wars trailer EVER!!!! I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  6. Yeah, but is there footage of you moonwalking in the video? I DIDN'T THINK SO! I watched it earlier today, Deuce. Nice work! The music is MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better than last year! I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  7. I know some of the motels have been completely booked for a couple of months. I'm about to cancel L.A.S.T.'s reservations at the Red Roof Inn (across the street from the Eloy Super 8, about 4 miles from the DZ). We had a non-smoking room with 2 full beds reserved for check-in on Wednesday, March 23, and check-out on Sunday, March 27. So if anyone is having trouble finding a room, call the Red Roof Inn at 520-466-2522 and see if this one is still available. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree.

  8. You have to understand the purpose of body armor in a combat situation. Mostly, you want it to protect against shrapnel, but it doesn't hurt to have something that can stop a .44 magnum or 9mm sub-machinegun rounds, just for a little added protection. Plus, you can add rifle plates to a IIIA vest to create level IV protection, and that WILL[/B][/I] stop most of the rounds they use overseas. Note: I'm not military, ex-military, law enforcement, or ex-law enforcement. My experience comes solely from selling survival gear online, so you might want to check my advice against someone with some practical experience. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree.

  9. eBay Search for: "body armor" "bulletproof vest" "bullet proof vest" If you want it for a combat scenario, you want a level IIIA. I believe most of the military guys use the Point Blank Interceptor. It's a high dollar vest. If you buy one online, make sure it comes with the options, like collar and groin protection. The military issue Point Blank Interceptors have optional rifle plates that are designed to stop rifle fire (kevlar alone won't stop rifle fire), but these are usually expensive and hard to find. I don't believe the soldiers use the plates unless they're in a very hot area because they are bulky and heavy and cumbersome. If you need accessories (like rifle plates) you can't find online, bulletproofme.com has a good selection. Be sure and ask the age and history of any body armor you buy used. Well worn body armor starts to loose its effectiveness. Also, body armor that has ever been saturated in water will loose its effectiveness. Remember, "fragmentation vests" and "flack jackets" are not the same as bulletproof vests--They are very low rated body armor (like 1A, I believe). I'm sure someone with some military or law enforcement experience can chime in and offer some other suggestions. Good luck. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree.

    Smoking rule

    I hate smelling like smoke for the rest of the evening after leaving a bar, but one of my friends who used to live in NYC pointed out an interesting Selma regarding this law--The smell of smoke masks the smell of the sweaty masses huddled together in a confined space. I'd never really thought of that, but it makes sense. According to him, you simply trade the smell of smoke for BO. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree.

  11. Yeah, you're responding to a 5 week old post. Now we're just going to SDAZ to train that weekend. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  12. Happy skybirthday, Meatbomb! I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  13. The song is "Lotion" by Greenskeepers. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  14. I've never heard that song before; that's pretty funny. I watched Silence of the Lambs last night. That is a great friggin thriller. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  15. Indiscernible rumbling... Yeah, we love Deuce. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  16. Come on now, Deuce. Who loves you, buddy? Edited to add: If you're going to replace the footage of me, do you think you could replace it with that loop of GFD's ass while she's packing? I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  17. Okay, just so that we're all on the same page, let me make sure I've got the plan straight: Local jumpers are going to be providing shuttle service from the San Francisco Airport to the Byron airport. Pitchforks and torches will be provided for those of us who are flying in so that we don't run into trouble trying to carry them onboard commercial flights. We're all going to muster at Bay Area Skydiving and light our torches, then start the long march to Deuce's house. Is that pretty much it? I don't have an M.D. or a law degree.

  18. It's not the best idea considering antihistimines cause drowsiness. The severity depends on the person but they usually cause somekind of drowziness in most people. Sudafed is a decongestant, not an antihistamine. There is nothing wrong with taking a decongestant and jumping. Most SCUBA instructors will tell you the same thing about SCUBA diving. Antihistamines are a different story, though. They can cause drowsiness in some people. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  19. If the boy's statements are true and the story is accurate, that's one of the most egregious travesties of justice I can recall in recent memory. Do you think the reactionary loons passing laws in that state got around to reading 1984 in high school? If that kid had a legal defense fund, I'd donate to it. He needs to find a kick-ass lawyer and ram that law down the Kentucky legislature's collective throat. And what is that BS about his grandparents turning him into the police? Talk about one #$@%ed up family unit! I'm heading down into the bomb shelter now because this has to be the seventh sign of the apocalypse. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree.

  20. See, I've never bought into that rule. I don't think being pied is like getting your SCR ceremony. At my first drop zone (Westex Skysports, near Midland, TX) pieing was a family event. Everybody on the drop zone, from the young kids to the whuffo spouses got into the act. That was fun. If you have to have been pied for the same number of jumps, who pies people with 10,000-20,000 jumps? I think SCR beer pouring should be limited to those who have been poured on, but I think pieing should be for everyone. On a similar note, an appropriate pie consists of an aluminum pie pan and whipped cream, nothing else! Do not put cat food and mustard and seafood salad in somebody's pie--That's just not right.

  21. YOU, out of the gene pool!!! I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  22. I knew there was a reason I liked you, Amazon. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  23. True. Absolutely true, assuming you're a VIP safely housed in a government shelter. Otherwise, you're going to want access to a survey meter (it's fairly easy to make your own rad meter). After an air burst, get yourself and two weeks of supplies under three feet of dirt or two feet of concrete within an hour. True. Well, kind of--They'll provide adequate protection from the fallout, but they won't keep you from catching cholera from the hundreds or thousands of people defecating and dying all around you. Go find shelter away from the masses. I know this is touching that line of "Speakers Corneresque." Yes, we could talk about government propaganda, blah blah blah. I just thought it was interesting.

  24. Since RHB is canceled, I think Eloy needs to include a junk day with the Easter Boogie, and our piece of junk could be a pole dancing platform. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
  25. Really? I'd be more concerned about passing out from the horrible flat spin that would no doubt start right out the door. I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.
