  1. Never said anyone cried racist. I'm saying if the carriers had instituted, of their own volition the same certification the FCC ordered you would have had cries of racism. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  2. Have you ever seen all of the container configurations that Bill Booth built before he got to the Wonderhog? I think most engineers would disagree with your comment. JerryBaumchen They must have worked to some degree.... Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  3. Really? According to the article, that (purging the ineligible recipients) is essentially what's happening now. Is anyone crying racist? Read and learn grasshopper...(bold is mine) Suspecting that many of the new subscribers were ineligible, the Federal Communications Commission tightened the rules last year and required carriers to verify that existing subscribers were eligible. The agency estimated 15% of users would be weeded out, but far more were dropped. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  4. Nice bait Wendy but I'm not biting. I have become a Contentist. I am doing as the late Dr. King had hoped and judging, 'not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.' I've already made the judgement that people unable to speak even close to grammatically correct english after attending our fine, taxpayer funded public education facilities are lacking in character. I would suggest that you are actually the racist by assuming that the 'be' in 'he be us' is the type of grammatic error only african americans make. Please don't dent the planet.

  5. Hope so. Here on the North Coast we definitely suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affect Disorder). Go to work in the dark and come home in the dark, not that there is much sunshine around here this time of year. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  6. Pretty sure he's talking about up jumpers. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  7. i read the article and it seems that the teleco companies are the ones who pushed to expand this program to line their pockets. no surprise to me nor am i offended but its not just the politicians buying votes. not even close. Well that's the chicken or the egg now isn't it. Wanna bet the lawyers would have been crying racist if the carriers had been denying access en masse. Sorry Wendy, it's true...

  8. Absolutely correct. Also, an AAD only activates the reserve. Back in the day we called them AOD's (automatic openers) but the lawyers made us change the name. I digress. You can find videos around where the cutting of the loop didn't launch the PC...that's a problem. I'll bet there's a couple of cases where 750 feet wasn't enough altitude for that weak PC to deploy the reserve. How about if you're tumbling? Easy to snag the PC somewhere. Again back in the day the AOD's had a bad quirk where they would fire for no apparent reason. Hmmm. History repeats itself. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  9. I guess we'll need to know if it's a polska keilbasa or a cocktail weiny. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  10. This isn't being rough...this is fun. I started this thread before the AAD issue. Now people are realizing that the device they won't jump without isn't foolproof, and has never been. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  12. Time for a new charger. Fortunately they've come way down in price. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  13. Might be a repost but who the hell cares http://www.shockmansion.com/2011/02/27/kate-upton-wearing-nothing-except-body-paint/ Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  14. Nowhere in the article does it say that gender roles are 'critical' as it does in your headline. In fact, the last paragraph states... The battle of the sexes is over. And guess what? No one won. Why not try something else on for size? Like this: men and women are equal, but different. They’ve each been blessed with amazing and unique qualities that they bring to the table. Isn’t it time we stopped fussing about who brought what and simply enjoy the feast? I guess this is typical of your spin. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  15. They really hate having their religion fucked with. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  17. Agreed. Seems this guy was looking for a reason to not jump. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  18. I've seen some lousy reporting in my day...this one wins. What else would you expect from the Bay area. http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2013/02/10/skydiver-accident/#respond Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  23. No. It doesn't. It doesn't have to be profitable any more than the FAA, Department of Transportation or military "need" to be profitable. Again, it's basic infrastructure. It's nice if it can recoup some costs through user fees, but that doesn't mean it has to be a revenue generator any more than we "need" to make a profit off our Coast Guard. The general public is not the direct consumer of the armed forces, or the transportation department. If that's your line of thought then I shouldn't be paying anything to mail a letter.

  24. Given that we all know how wrong the media gets most stories I have to wonder. I want to read the Manifesto in more detail. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
