  1. We were in Sebastian for the CPC. Sorry we missed seeing you. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  2. yes, as long as you put your REAL EMAIL on the list.
  3. thanks Katie and to those of you who replied and have sent PMs. I'm bumping this for those of you who didn't see it on friday. Please send me a PM with your email address if you plan on attending.

  5. Hiya folks, As many of you know, Travis and I are tying the knot at Skydive Atlanta on May 13th. I can't believe it's less than 2 months away! We're going to have barbeque, beer, and moonwalks set up in the hangar! The wedding jump will be around 2:00, barbeque starting around 4, and beer whenever the beer light comes on. I wanted to issue a general invitation to everyone who can make it. If you could, please drop me a PM so I can get a headcount for Travis' dad (he needs to know how much meat to smoke), and include an email address. We will be sending out updates as it gets closer.
  6. Thankfully not. I've heard horror stories, but no.
  7. That was awesome. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  8. My first huge crush was Kevin Alvarez, in 2nd grade. The crush pretty much continued all the way into 7th grade, when I left that school. He was so cute! He had blonde hair in a bowl cut (which was REALLY cool back then), a big white smile, and when he would smile and his hair would fall over his forehead, or lean his head back and laugh, I would get HUGE butterflies in my tummy!!!
  9. And you did GREAT!! STRAIGHT down the tube, didn't even flinch when I docked on you! People, I personally don't believe that Kelly has gone that long without a freefly jump. Now if only that dolt had made sure her camera was turned on.... Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

  10. I agree with you in general on this issue. However, I don't see Keith's point as going off an a tangent. It's a linked issue. If the court decides in this case that yes, the man does have responsibility for a child that he didn't want to concieve, then it may follow that he may have some kind of right to have a part in the discussion of whether to terminate the pregnancy. That's a scary thought. Because what happens if, down the road, a suit comes up with a woman who wants to terminate, but the man, arguing that he would have to support the child in the future, sues on the ground that he has clear interests in the birth of this child, and survives a summary judgment motion. The judge issues a stay, and in the intervening discovery period, the woman has the child and the case becomes moot. Just a thought. Personally, I wouldn't have the abortion, but if I were in a situation where I wanted to have one and the man didn't, I could definitely see him using this precedent in his favor. I know it's a weird argument - using a case where the man didn't want the baby to support a man who now does - but if the court says that the man has some obligation to support the child, that obligation could certainly turn into whether the man should have some say about whether this obligation comes to fruition or not. On the other hand, the precedent in this situation seems to say that the man has to take care of the child because it's the lesser of two evils - the man should take care of it before the state would have to....not sure how one would get a moral obligation out of such a monetary argument. Feel free to talk me out of it. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  11. aw....I just want to smoochie those chubby cheeks! So cute!
  12. /19/ Nineteen jumps this gorgeous weekend at Skydive Atlanta!!!! I'm sore and chafed (not used to jumping that much), but had an amazing time.
  13. something interesting about cars that run on soybean oil - apparently they're not hard to build and go pretty fast. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/02/17/eveningnews/main1329941.shtml Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

  14. I would hope that more than one thing in life would make me happy.
  15. http://www.weather.com/activities/other/other/weather/weekend.html?locid=USGA0565&from=search Yay! Jumping this weekend! Finally! See you Thomaston people tomorrow!
  16. Okay, don't cut the training down. But do go get tested for anemia. It sounds like you are experiencing some of the symptoms. Hope this helps, Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  17. Justice Ginsburg has been battling colon cancer for a while. She is definitely very ill. Just some information. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  18. Hi, I've been running between 5 and 7 miles a day during the week for the last few months, and I ran in college before that. In my experience, Iron supplements and EmergenC packs really help me stay well and energized, but I've never needed to take supplements to finish a run. If you're struggling through three miles and feel "dead" or "sleepy" afterward, I would suggest one of two things: 1. You may be running too hard or too long for your fitness level. You should never feel like you're going to collapse after a training run. Scale it back, try to relax your shoulders and face (tension takes a lot of energy), and be patient with yourself. Gaining your fitness goals will never happen overnight. 2. Go get bloodwork done. If you're a light-skinned, blonde, or generally little female, you may be exhibiting classic signs of anemia. I've dealt with this condition a lot, and it really kills your energy level. Hence the iron supplements. Hope this helps
  19. Having worked in the public school system, I'd be happy to give you the rundown on the Act. Vouchers are more of a hot button issue, though. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  20. I've met Jeb Bush, too. I think he's a nice guy. I also think his No Child Left Behind Act and voucher initiatives are crap. He may be nice, but I wouldn't want him to be President.

  21. I live in Florida and I work for the State. People here do not generally like him. His education initiatives suck. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  22. I spend a lot of time working for the ACLU, and I can tell you that it spends a lot of time representing members of the majority these days. Especially those who like to express very racist and sexist views. Brie edited for another post deletion. My post still responds to the above.

  23. Call your local ACLU office. They can give you some advice about your rights, and may even file a lawsuit for you. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  24. dude, you're talking (or typing?) to the last person on earth who would be disrespectful about how hard serving really is. I just used it as an analogy for tipping pizza guys.
