    Why don't you all move to Utah. You can both marry him. See HH, I'm lookin' out for you.

    Could be. But I still think they are less dangerous than the pope.
  3. My dealings with Buy.com have been mixed. I've ordered things from them at least 50 times, including a good number of corporate purchases for my job. When they have something in stock, it is usually very well priced and arrives the next day, even with regular shipping. My home and office are only about 100 miles from their Pennsylvania warehouse. The problem is when things are out of stock. They aren't good about notification, and customer service isn't great. Buy.com has been either very good for me, or very bad, but seldom anything in between.
  4. I think it is the return from Panama, but I'm not positive.
  5. Rounds are generally pretty good at bouncing off people and other round parachutes. They also teach procedures for collisions and method of avoidance. "Slip to the right!"
  6. buy.com bastards I have had stuff that has been in this limbo for months. It is really annoying. Like you said, I wish they'd just tell me they don't have it.

    Could be. I just hope they get someone to do voiceovers. James Earl Jones maybe.

    Personally, I'd let you in way before him. The whole "I live in the Vatican, which is a real country" thing is sorta fishy. And the whole "Swiss Guard" deal. Come on. If you have your own country, why do you have to go get rent-a-cops? Pope-mobile? Whatever. And those clothes! Immigration should stop him just for the goofy robes. Definitely suspicious. (Catholics, I'm joking.
  9. I don't have numbers to back this up, but I'd bet that the rate of broken legs for military jumpers is lower than civilian skydivers on a breaks/1000 jumps ratio.
  10. Yes. I can think of several. Zip-tied. Naked. Horny. Bi-sexual. (Had to throw in the common male fantasy.) Exhibitionist. Slightly deviant. That is enough for the moment. Remember, you did ask how I wanted you. j/k - All in fun.
  11. Sunshine, That was low.
  12. Oh, no. Personal delivery only.
  13. I have those too. In numerous sizes and colors.
  14. Okay. I'll leave the Ronco at home. But I'll bring the accessories. Gloves, elastic ties, tongs, baster, and some other goodies. Sound like a plan?
  15. I'd rather do it in person. I'm not much of a phone person. Should I bring the Ronco and elastic ties?
  16. You are a step ahead of me. I thought, "What the hell IS a power puff girl?" Still don't know.
  17. Tell him that he has to pay you back immediately. Be nice but serious. Give him like a week to get you some substantial (1/3?) of what he owes you. Give him a repayment schedule and let him know that you mean business. Then if he doesn't pay on time, lock his ass out and start hauling his shit to the pawn shop.
  18. True. I think there is a different model of military round that does have better steering, but I only ever saw generals and stuff jumping them.
  19. I finally got off my lazy butt and scanned in a photo I have in my office. It is an 11"x17" glossy, so I had to scan it in sections and use software to merge them back into one image. The file I've uploaded is substantially reduced from the scanned size, so if anyone wants a bigger (2119x2668 pixel) version, let me know. I've been meaning to do this for awhile, but never bothered. Anyway, since I've been on dz.com, a bunch of people have talked about military jumps and the kinds of parachutes, lowering lines and such. For those that have never seen this kind of equipment or jump, this photo may be helpful. You can see a paratrooper in the foreground preparing to land and PLF. Looking at the photo as a whole, you can see that there are a whole lot of people in the air and on the ground at the same time. IMHO, the photo is also just damned cool! Hooah!
  20. Keep lit matches away from Clay's ass.
  21. Yup. Everything is always our fault. Just ask the rest of the world.
