  1. Actually I think there must have been some concussive force. Probably his Mother of All Bombs turned out to be his redheaded stepsister on his father's side. I have trouble imagining a fire burning long enough to cause the kind of damage we see in the pictures. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  2. Nur also reported that the man caught fire before he was sucked from his seat, and eerily, the burned body of an elderly man was found in Balad, 18 miles from Mogadishu. It’s uncertain whether this was the same man. I'm assuming finding a burnt body in Somalia is an everyday occurence. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  3. I would think dropping the gear would add to the problem. Don't remember on my 3 jumps whether the gear was down but it was for all of my Beech 18 jumps. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  4. Bill was nothing if not unique. Sail on. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  5. El nino http://www.cbsnews.com/news/wild-december-weather-thanks-to-el-nino/ Now that it's raining in California the AGW preachers are surprisingly quiet. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  6. Looks good to me. Surprised that you messed with it for as long as you did. Once you released the brakes I think it became apparent that it had to go. One question; what did you say after the reserve opened? I can't quite make it out. F'n something... Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  7. So sad. But remember our pet's rely on us to know when they are in too much pain to go on. You've given your animal a wonderful life. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  8. Saw this today on a TV screen at lunch. Watching the empty rig fall away made me a little sick to my stomach. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=811_1448308069&comments=1 Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  9. A couple of 'em actually landed at the DZ too I actually learned to spot jumping Double L rounds. You learn in a hurry to get it dialed in. Yep. Big day in the progression at Cleveland Sport was called "spot and bomb the door". First spot, first PC jump, first non-poised exit. Spotting skills were a must in the days of rounds. Now you just dial in the GPS and go. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  11. As long as its only an SO cut away. She uses the time and money thing but in reality she's probably scared. My current wife and I were discussing the problems my first wife and I had with skydiving. I didn't realize at the time that she was also fearful. She either couldn't express it well enough or I didn't hear her. I'd like to apologize to her but sadly she died five years ago. My second wife was all into it until our good friend bounced on a demo we were working. Kinda took the fun out of it for me as well. I've learned over the years that jumping is an individual sport and very difficult to share with your non-jumping wife/SO. How did we fix that problem? We bought a boat we can both enjoy. YMMV. Good luck. Most importantly...don't take advice from someone on their third marriage. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  12. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/george-barris-dead-batmobile-creator-837553 My childhood is littered with his customized cars. Sail on George. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  13. I'll bet there's not much more than a handful of people on here with some years in the sport who can't recall doing something stupid and getting away with it like these samples. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  14. Also seems perhaps a bit of landing zone enforcement could have gone a long way. Just sayin'. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  15. Is it just me or did one of those pictures look like some kind of chemical had somehow gotten onto the handle, if not the cable? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  16. My first rig was an SST and a heavy Cloud that was freepacked. Glad I never saw my deployments from that angle. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  17. Marah, We saw the film in Cleveland. Excellent work. Thanks. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  18. Left leaning posters here have managed to kill this forum. Used to be enjoyable to debate the days events. Lots of participation and insight from both sides. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  19. Absolutely! How dare she change her mind over the course of 5 years! Anyone who changes their mind about stuff in so short a span of time obviously has questionable morals!! Far better to make a decision and stick with it. Even if it's the wrong one! Sorry. I can't lay the sarcasm on any thicker than that. Maybe someone else could try. Point out where in those statements she has 'made a decision'. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  20. Thanks for making my point. She's a career politician who would lie when the truth would sound better. No different than your list above. BREAKING NEWS: Politician Runs for Political Office Dog Bites Man You see John...that's the problem. We're OK with scumbag politicians. We're getting what we deserve. Nice tap-dance you're doing there. Your OP was clearly a blatant Hillary bash. When that hypocrisy was exposed, you weasel it into a bash against voters. Sorry John...you made it about all politicians with your newspaper headlines. Try again. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  23. Regarding Keystone She was for it before she was against it. I can see her moral compass swaying in the breeze. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  24. One would think the Affordable Care Act would have prevented that. No, it was never designed to do that. But you know that and are just making another gratuitous bash. Of course I know that. It's not just a gratuitous bash...it's the truth. What part of Affordable addressed prescription costs? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
