  1. Avoid August, September and October. The start of the school season was always the worste rain growing up. March, April or May would be good. Although now that Ohio is where I live, I would go November, December, January, February, March, April, May.
  2. I fly a Hornet 230 but sorry no pics yet.
  3. Hey benny, This only applies if you are driving 2-lane rural roads..
  4. If you really want to know what a war hero is visit the Tomb of the Unkown Soldier. or Join the military and go to a place where people don't want you, and do a thankless job that nobody else wants, while your family goes through their daily life with an empty chair at the table. or Sacrifice something of yourself for nothing in return other than pain and sorrow, and the satisfaction that noone will ever really know what you contributed but those who have been there. or Go to your local VFW and meet the thousands of men and women who have served in any capacity in any war. or Walk around Washington D.C. and look at the monuments to those who have served. or Go to any of the countless of homes in your area where someone is currently serving and sit with their families and learn about the loved one oversees. or Search your local paper, go to your work and scan the faces in memorial picture boards. All of these are your War Heroes.
  5. Hey Wrong Way! Spot on brother! My wife may like whn I come home musky, but she also likes the way I smell after a shower. In fact my daughters always snuggle up to me and say "Daddy you smell nice." I like to open doors and pull out chairs and I stand when a woman leaves my table. There are times when I wear a suit and there are times when I wear jeans, but I always care about how I look. Yet I still do not wear cologne (unless it is on a date with my wife). I think some of the things that I am reading as attributed to metrosexuals are actually just things attributed to GENTLEMEN. And you can be a gentlemen without all the frilly creams and hair gels and other foofoo juices. I think somewhere along the line of this thread the two different characteristics are getting muddled in one metrosexual male. Oh well . . . what do I know?
  6. Well, I know I am probably way ahead of myself, but I am working on my second rig. Hell I thought everyone who has been in the sport a while had two rigs. I figure it is great if you want to hit back to back loads. Actually, my first rig is not the colors I would have chosen but I still like it and got my Bev Suit to match it. This new one is exactly how I want it and hell I figured, get a suit to match it too. Maybe I should sell one . . . nah!
  7. BLASPHEMY!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!! What he said!!! I don't understand how anyone can like anyone who does NOT like Krispy Cremes!
  8. You know what...I was going to say "Hell yeah", but I am not a man... Screw it ... HELL YEAH!!! Ah but I asked the women to sound off too.
  9. Holy Crap! And this one too?!
  10. Hey CrazyThomas! Both our Posts were edited by the same guy at the same time!
  11. I'm gonna take that as a hell yeah.
  12. I'm sorry but I go to a barber get my flattop and use regular ole butchwax if I decide to sport the flat. I clean, file and cut my nails myself. I shave barely regularly and I wear Right Guard Sport Stick Deoderant and I use Irish Spring Soap. I like Blue Jeans, sneakers and getting my hands dirty. And when I come home from work smelling particularly male, or from riding after school (working a Co-op for now) for some reason my wife gets horny. She says I smell manly and she digs it. (I personally think I smell like I rolled in manuer)(sp?) Occasionally I will wear light, and I do mean LIGHT, cologne. And I have several suits of varying class that I enjoy wearing for her. But I do not go for GQ (that stands for Gay Questions right?), no damn gel, skin lotion or other feminine male crap. I am not in tune with my feminine side, could care less about how something makes me feel unless it is sex with my woman. I cannot stand shopping, at all, unless it is for motorcycle parts, car parts, guns, or skydiving gear. I like my steak medium rare, my potato huge with butter and sour cream and my beer right out of the damn keg with a monster head. I do however, care about my wife's feelings and it makes me feel particularly masculine to take her out to a fine restaurant and spend some cash on her. But I expect to get well laid in the end. Guess I ain't a metrosexual man. And I really don't give a rip. Now where's my wife? I need a refill on this tea and my feet need rubbin. Maybe I should have been 30 in the 50's. Those men (or women) who don't go for the metrosexual crap give me a hell yeah!
  13. Just about anywher you jump in Texas you'll be jumpin' with Aggies. We tried to exterminate them years ago but they just wouldn't go away! Are you saying Aggies are like cockroaches?
  14. Hey dutch, just something I noticed recently. Some people read the initial post (myself icluded) and respond to that without reading the other responses. I just noticed it in one of the threads I posted and well. No I know why I should read the WHOLE thread BEFORE responding. That's why you get posts that seem to have ignored what you say later in the thread. Just FYI.
  15. Hawaii - get leid up at 13,000. Hawaii - Come swoop our volcanoes! Hawaii - See that burnt spot? That's the DZ.
  16. Yeah, I just had a long conversation on the phone with someone who made a valid point that I never thought of. What if I am unconscious? You know, smack head that even with bonehead I go nighty night and then the Cypress fires and my reserve puts me wherever God decides. Do I really want a canopy smaller that the one I am landing consious? My response to Jim was, "Um . . . er . . . uh . . . no?" "very good," he says. So I says, "Damn I thought I was smart but now I know I should think again." And he says, "Stupid Noob." Actually, he had much more tact than that and I really am not sure how I missed this thought process. Chalk it to inexperience and glad I made the mistake in thought and not in the action.
  17. Just got my spending priorities straight.
  18. I think you mean "fewer" rednecks. [url]http://alt-usage-english.org/excerpts/fxlessvs.html "Less" is used when referring to things you measure, "fewer" is used when referring to things you count. wwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrooooooooooooo wweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrroooooooooooooooo weeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrooooooooooo bluuup bluuup Grammar Police! Step away from the keyboard and place your hands in the air!
  19. Yeah look up. I honestly cannot even explain my thought process there to myself. I think I was looking at largest available used PD R and not thinking about canopy size difference. You guys responded so fast, no point in changing original post. I'll just take the verbal lumps for being stupid as they come. Feeling kinda stupid right now.
  20. Thanks for pointing out something I should have thought about already. Would a 193 be okay? Or should I go with something 200 ish? Also, what other reserves would you recommend?
  21. Here's another q. I am trying to figure out whether I should by a used reserve PD-160 listed in the classifieds. I just bought a Pilot 210 and I am getting ready to order my Mirage G3. I am looking at either M5 or M6. It looks like the M5 will fit the Pilot 210 but I guess the Pilot is so new that they have not placed it on their list. If I go with an M6 - can I safely place a PD 160 in it? It says it fits a 193. Or should I go with th M5 which seems to be a tight fit based on other 210's? Thanks folks for being patient with me and my series of Questions. This is my first custom setup and I want to be safe while getting what I want.
