  1. But he makes more money than I do. Wouldn't it make more sense for me to quit my job and move to where he is? Wait. What am I saying? It snows where he lives... Hey Bytch - long distance works if you both want it to... _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  2. I wasn't a fan of any of the first generation cars. The Civic may be an option - but check out the 2004 version here Phree: http://www.toyota.com/html/shop/look_ahead/ It looks like they may have fixed their mistakes. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  3. While the 2003 Neon is nice, I don't like the mileage I am getting on it (average of 25). Been looking at the new Prius and wondering if anyone has had a chance to drive it yet? Opinions, etc? _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  4. I only met Amy briefly at Rantoul and she was still on crutches - is she really that tall or is that with heels on? _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  5. Hrm, sounds like you're trying to convince someone to move to Chicago too!! Moi? _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  6. Well now that you mention the money part. Snow isn't so bad. It's kinda fun to get all bundled up and go outside. You can have snowball fights, build a snowman, make snowangels. You can curl up together under a warm blanket or lay by the fireplace. Driving in snow sucks, but it's only a few months out of the year. The girl has a very valid point! _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  7. Not sure - trying to work that out now. Actually, yes! I tend to talk a lot during skydives and under canopy, so a few quick thoughts during those few seconds isn't that far of a stretch. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  8. Buy some OFF! ya Wimps. We were out till just before sunrise Sunday morning at SDC I even DD Heather! (wow, this is post #666) _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  9. Both played by Hugo Weaving! ...eerie coincidence or supernatural symmetry?!? Dude, I'm a geek...didn't need that pointed out.... _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....

  12. http://www.tk421.net/character/ I am John Sheridan! Cool, by far one of my favorite characters in SF. Yes, I do realize he is just a re-write of Strider. Interesting, my roommate took the test twice - once with real answers, then how he thought he should answer. First time he was Elrond, second time he was Agent Smith! _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  13. No need to ship it out - Kirk and Eugene at ParaConcepts are great riggers and the store is pretty much a one-stop shop. As soon as I come up with the cash they will fix it for me. Kirk fixed my old Sabre 230 when I got line burn several years back. Eh, oh....he knew I was pissed. And his attitude wasn't helping me...but I held it back because I didn't want to lose my canopy. Maybe, after all I will have long paid off my debt by then _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  14. Don't think many people in skydiving know me as anything other than Bo...it's a take on the first part of my last name Beauregard. Oh yea, my first name is Brian. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  15. As much as I would like to do that....my one little mal isn't a good enough reason to shake up the relationships with our neighbors. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  16. You are soo very wrong Jim. I don't think you know what you are talking about _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  17. Ah hell....just got word from my rigger... Looks like when the farmer took the canopy off the roof there was damage done to the canopy. The damage is on the bottom skin near the center cell, including an adjacent rib (jagged, tear-type holes), and on the topskin almost all the way to the right side as you look up at the canopy in flight (4 holes, all the same shape, where the fabric stacked on to itself). _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  18. Thanks Hun. She was really sweet on the phone asking if I was ok and all....then proceeds to say "that's what you get for jumping an out of trim Spinletto." Yea, I knew it had to be coming sooner or later, I just wanted to get it out of the way. I was even thinking of getting an intentional cutaway rig just to know what it felt like. I called the loft today to ask them to measure the lines just so I can find out just how out of trim it is... _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  19. Yup, right around noon or so....Northwest of the DZ.... _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....

  21. Actually, by having the brakes adjusted I did have my gear updated. 300 jumps is rather early to need a lineset redone and I was under the impression I could get another 100 jumps on them. Beer or money on the road has some relevance - you could use both. Not too much a whuffo can do with a Stiletto other than get hurt or throw it out. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  22. I've never understood why whuffo's run to get gear and then hide it. What the hell is the point. I was at a dropzone one day when a local stops by and asks if anyone lost a canopy - he had found it a couple years earlier and claimed he didn't know there was an airport in the area. I had to stop a whuffo in Rantoul from stealing a freebag.... ....a friend watched an old couple pull up next to a canopy and throw it in their trunk - luckily he saw the plates and the local police chased them down a week later. They said "oh, we were going to bring it back soon." Ugh. Pisses me off _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  23. I used to leave the seat up at night when my (ex)wife and I were fighting. I loved that splash sound too. You can stretch saran wrap across the bowl for additional fun. Ever notice you don't hear a guy complaining about falling into the toilet? Afterall, we need to sit down on them every so often as well. You check your spot when you are about to leave the plane, just do the same before you sit. geez. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  24. I did get the main back. I have no idea where my freebag went off to....there were just too many people to accuse. The next step would have been calling the Police and waiting there for them. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  25. Maybe they'll think it's a parachute and try to jump off the roof with it. I'd be writing a letter to the editor of the local newspaper... sounds like someone needs to teach those little shits a lesson. Glad to hear everything worked like it was supposed to.... well, everything but the main. Good job!
