I bought a 20 dollar pack job the other weekend.

Actually, I think you're both right. When you walk down the street and notice someone's ass, you're only comprehending the ass. So you're shallow. If you notice someone's ass, and you only care about the ass and not what he or she thinks, you're only concerned with the ass. So you're still shallow. not to belabor the point or anything.

I want to squeeze him and hug him and LOVE him to pieces! 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

oh boy oh boy. 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

ccowden has a crush on me! *dances around* There's something so nice about finding out that someone has a crush on you. It's in the warm fuzzy category, I think. how YOU doin'?

Actually, I'm not the black sheep in my family. I always got good grades, dressed conservatively (I still wear a lot of Gap clothes and abercrombie jeans, but it's really more because I can just pick any pair of jeans and a t-shirt and it all matches - less time getting ready in the morning), and I'm headed for a decent career. Yea, I've done the drugs, been arrested, and done some other fringe-type activities. But it's been more of a growing process than anything. My dad is a school psychologist, and he says my brother, sister, and I all fit exactly into the steriotypical molds modern psychology sets for us when one considers when we were born. I was born first. I'm the overachiever, I'm competitive, and I'm not afraid to try new things and be outgoing. My brother was next, and he's more of a homebody and less adventurous, and cares more about his family life than his career. My sister almost failed out of high school, and she does all the crazy drugs and loves contra-dancing and her art more than anything. She's pierced her face and generally rebelled against my parents more than any of us. I'm not sure these steriotypes work all the time, but they worked with us. If anything, my sister is more of the black sheep than my brother or I. I'd be curious to know how many of the "black sheep" on here are the youngest chilren in their families. Just for experiment's sake. 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

OMG!!!! It makes me want to smooch his little cheeks! And smell his baby smell! Uh......Chris, I think I may have a crush on your son.

This is a funny thread

That, and they've become an integral part of our Constitutional right to petition the government about our grievances. Not saying it's a good system, just making an observation.

Wow, I feel your pain. My fiance and I have fought with my parents about our wedding, because we seem to have differing ideas about who the wedding is for. However, both my parents and my fiance and I have learned a lot about weddings in the process. Like it or not, weddings are about your family and friends too. It's a chance to affirm your relationship in front of everyone you know. By its very nature, it's a social cermony. However, a wedding is also about the two of you. It's a personal ceremony as well as a social one. It's supposed to reflect who you are and how you view your relationship. I actually went to a reception for a couple who were married in Hawaii, then came back to the states to celebrate with their friends and family who couldn't make it. It was really nice. They showed a tape of the ceremony, and everyone had a great time. In a sense, my fiance and I are kind of doing the same thing. We're having a ceremony in the plane we met on, and jumping out. Our immediate family and close friends will be there, and we're just barbequeing at the dropzone and throwing a little party. It's how we would do it if we had the choice. The next weekend, my mother and grandmother are getting the white dress flower string quartet wedding. I'm not all that interested in this one, and I've actively stayed away from any of the decisions - it's essentially my mom's wedding. But it's important to my mom to have a ceremony like this one, so I'm more than willing to accommodate her. She is, after all, my mom. You guys are in a different situation than we are, because we're not paying for the wedding. But I thought I'd mention that weddings are about compromise with those particularly invested in the two of you. It may be important to those people to at least feel like they are a part of the decision-making process. I would definitely at least run your ideas by your parents and such before you make your decisions. It's the good kid thing to do. Good luck

I like your hugs better

Wow Mark. I'm seriously going to have to disagree again. If there is ANY criticism of Ian's canopy advice out there, it's that he's too conservative in his canopy recommendations to young jumpers. Personally, I think that's an accolade. And as for your vague insinuations that jumpers are able to jump canopies at Skydive Atlanta that they are not able to jump at the Farm....now you're spreading the rumors that you wanted to avoid. Let's get back to the issue, shall we? 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

I'm going to go ahead and jump in here, just because Ian has, without a doubt, been the most helpful and instructive person at Skydive Atlanta for a long time with regard to swooping. He's given tons of his time to me and other jumpers, teaching the basics and advanced aspects of swooping. To imply that he is not helpful to newbies is absurd. 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

I'm NOT a Christian.....and proud 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

I'd have to agree. It's the one place where people get angry when you flash your boobs at them while driving on the highway. 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

Lets hope you're using your "Constitution", big 'c' in preparation for those pesky Alito confirmation hearings before you pander off to go campaign. 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

From Article 1, section 3 of the Florida Constitution: "There shall be no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting or penalizing the free exercise thereof. Religious freedom shall not justify practices inconsistent with public morals, peace or safety. No revenue of the state or any political subdivision or agency thereof shall ever be taken from the public treasury directly or indirectly in aid of any church, sect, or religious denomination or in aid of any sectarian institution." It's the Bush v. Holmes section, about how vouchers violate the Establishment Clause. We won that case, too.

suuuurrrreee........reinforcing how to work as a team...... So when you tell your fliers that they should lose weight so they can be thrown higher for the sake of the "team," are you going to complain when one of them gets dropped because she was thrown too high and breaks her tailbone and has to sit on a donut for 8 weeks???? Maybe I'm drawing from too much personal experience here And yes, Travis and I will be at the DZ, although he's sick, so he may not be jumping too much. I'm going to be nice and not ask him to be my packing bitch 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

Also Article I, section 3. But that's a whole other can of worms. 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

That, and it's unconstitutional. Several SC cases in Florida have ruled that if we take the tax away from people who don't have children, then we're essentially charging tuition for the people who do have children, and this takes away from the Constitutional requirement for a free, uniform public school system. I just helped write a brief on this issue. Take it from me, Bush's program for vouchers is a GIANT COP-OUT. He essentially shirking his governmental responsibility to provide a free, uniform system of public schools. That, and the voucher program is also unconstitutional because of the Establishment Clause in the Florida Constitution, which happens to be even more strict than the US Constitiution because it says that "no aid, direct or indirect, shall go to fund sectarian institutions." Since 97 percent of children who took advantage of the voucher system during the first go-around (Bush v. Holmes) when to sectarian schools, it was a serious problem. I mean, these people are idiots. What part of "direct or indirect" and "no aid" don't they understand? Sheesh Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

OMG Jessie that is so cute! I mean, apart from the fact that you're reinforcing terrible steriotypes and body images, you go girl! Just kidding.....but seriously Will we see you at the freezing dropzone this weekend? Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

Do the rocket boots featured in the Birdman article remind anyone else of The Incredibles? (you know, Incrediboy? "Aren't you wondering how I got here so fast? Well, I have these rocket boots...") It really is a great movie

dude, I just saw your new sig line barely remenber that one.... 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
