  1. Take lump sum - it's mine, I want it now and I don't know if that office will still have all my money 20 years from now. It's a risk, but give it to me. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  2. Do they want to adopt a 30 year old skydiver? _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  3. Heart Attack....don't know if he did drugs, but it seemed most people in the 80s were sniffin, it was just an observation. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  4. Must be my fault Lisa - every time I go to FL this year, it pours. Yup, I'm in town this weekend....sorry. Seems Heather has the same effect when she comes to IL. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  5. I'd guess annoying. Seems to be working. Nope. Wrong, made me laugh realize that an educated conservative needs to result to 3rd grade school yard tactics. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  6. Guess this means no Power Station comeback tour. Heard about it this morning on the way in as well....did you know he had a TV show in Europe? Same age as John Ritter....also a heart problem. So much for that 80's lifestyle helping you live longer....well, guess that depends on which 80's trend you were a part of - working out, or coke. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  7. Welcome to the real world where most of us jumpers live....in the paycheck to paycheck category. Funny how unemployment twice in three years plus jumping can do that to a person. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  8. Hell NO! I had to post them because I knew people like Ivan and Clay would HAVE to look at them. The possability of boobies would be too much of a temptation lol I am curious as to how strong they really are....I'm more interested in an arm wrestle with one of them. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  9. I beleive death and murder was threatened if someone ordered one of them. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....

  11. I'm standing up in a few weddings next year (four or five)....the talks of what to do for the bachelor parties has been intersesting since it will be the same group of friends for all the weddings. Check my email last night - and I get this one from one of the best men saying we are going to get two strippers from this group - which two do you think we should get? See pictures attached...... Yikes? Ouch! _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  12. I find out today if I can have this weekend off....keep fingers crossed, they hinted at "no" last night. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  13. http://whatisthematrix.warnerbros.com/rv_cmp/revolutions_trailers.html Doesn't look like anyone else posted it, but I'm probably wrong. It's the theatrical trailer for Revolutions, plus some links to the TV commercials. Anyhow...Nov 5th isn't that far off! Then just over a month later Return of The King! Good winter for geeks! Oh, the ROTK trailer hits online this Monday. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  14. I've seen it happen - my roommates Grandmother died from some medical conditions complicated by a bad fall. One week to the day, almost to the hour, her husband of 50 years died. The doctors found nothing wrong with him, and declared it a natural death from old age. 50 years with the same person? I think I would want to die as well - the broken heart would hurt too much. I wish you and your family well Misskriss..... _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  15. usually the headline of an article is a preview of what the article is about. the headline of that article mentions his statement about Clarke - and is almost as long as the paragraph in the article. either a terrible journalist or the paper has an axe to grind. i know my journalism professor would have given me a poor grade for such a misleading header. Oh, is calling him Carp supposed to be funny, cute, or annoying? I somehow missed your intent. Funny how the conservatives come up with all the really cool nicknames for the liberals, meanwhile we focus more on the issues. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  16. Huge article that has one small paragraph about Clark, and he basically says, "I won't vote for him, and I can't tell you why, but trust me on it." Um, wow, that swayed me, I'll go vote for Bush now. Edit to add: This is coming from the same guy that had his 757 come back to American on 9/11 because he was clarvoyent enough to know the weather in NYC and that "there were no computer errors" and this was all he needed to know it was a terrorist attack. Sounds like he needs alot of info to make important choices. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  17. hmmm....FoxNews. Go Figure. what? an axe to grind? slanted to the right? noooooooo I don't see that. Notice they never said anything bad about the guy when he was trying to decide if he was going to run or before his approval rating was higher than GWB. BTW - notice GWB disapproval rating lately? _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  18. Begging, I didn't hear any begging. He asked if they would help. He is giving hem a chance to do what we give them millions for, as I said in the past if they don;t want to play ball give them 5 days notice that we are pulling out of the un. Use the money saved to rebuild Iraq. I believe it was a newspaper here in Chicago owned by Rupert that coined it as "crawling back" to the UN. Has to be right since it came from a Rupert owned rag, right? _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  19. You need to watch CNN more. They are the ones reporting that 63% of Iran want a free democratic state and that it's the religious right causing the problems. It was CNN that reported the deaths and imprisonment of the leaders of that leftist movement...since it is a leftist movement in Iran that doesn't mesh with the scary image GWB wants us to have of Iran, you won't find those facts on FoxNews. You also can find a couple of documentaries out there about the Shaw, and the conclusion that Iran would be an ally if we told him to look elsewhere or allowed him to face the music back home. Plus Americans wouldn't have been hostages. We need to stay out of Iran and let the people there take care of their country. Please get it out of your mind that everyone follows the party line. I support issues on both the left and right side, democratic and republican. I supported Clinton on some issues, and felt he should have stepped down from office because of other issues. He is not "mine" as you so blindly claim. My voter registration card says "independant" and it will take a lot for any one party to get me to call their party line "mine." I grew up and realized that the two party system is slow malfunction that should have been chopped a long time ago. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  20. Always with you guys it's what you "don't trust". Don't agree with. Don't like. Easy enough to complain. That doesn't help. But fair enough. If you disagree, you should be prepared to state clearly where that line is drawn instead of 'who knows'. Better if you'd state who you'd trust. I've said on here before who I would trust, what my stance is, my particular issues I feel that need to be addressed. I have also campaigned, supported, given time and money to people I felt would do better. In the primary I am most likely going to vote for Clark - I've been following him long before this buzz about him has started. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  21. I bet I've been to more of the world and lived among more of the worlds cultures than a lot here. Your version of a "global view" is the real scary thing. I wonder what your view on Arafat, hero or heal? So your travels made you even more close minded? It worked just the opposite for me, and, while I saw that the US had a huge part in the world (partially by force), it wasn't the only part of the Global environment. Leaders of a country are often a product of the current state of a country, whether its good or bad compared to western thinking is not always a relevant thing. When we get involved in a foreign country's leadership we tend to make things worse. Do you think that Iran would have taken those hostages in 79 if Carter didn't give the former leader asylum? Then again, there are the times we wait too long and someone kills a few million people and walks across most of Europe. Now, where do we draw the line? Who knows, but I do know I don't trust the current administration to make that decision. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  22. He always scares me - someone that believes that having a global opinion/view is a bad thing is someone with a very poor vision of how the world really works. Hmmm....Maybe he wants us to build a big wall all around the country while we are at it. Wow, who wound me up today? I need to stop drinking coffee. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  23. I got a better idea. Let's pull out of the UN. Use all that money toward the GI's. They sure are better use than the UN. Then we drill for oil in the US. WE have plenty of oil in alaska and in the gulf. No more oil imports. In fact we prolly could export some and help out our true friends. If I am not mistaken, GWB went back to the UN the other day, tail between his legs, hoping they forgot his comments about the UN being useless, etc....and just about begged for help. GWB must have been fuming inside that he had to do that ...god I love to see an idiot cowboy shown that its not wise to go in guns blazing! Now, maybe he will learn its better to be diplomatic with your politics instead of being an trigger happy dolt. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  24. yep someone was to busy getting hummers (not the 4 wheeled kind), instead of taking care of our guys. Maybe we need to teach those in charge how to budget, and stick to it. But hey, we should be ok now...at least we caught the bastard. Oh wait...... Well, at least we are in control of another OPEC seat and can stop drilling in our environment and hope prices come down now....oh wait.....yea, it must all be slick Willie's fault.... _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  25. Maybe we could have skipped on using a few thousand bombs dropped on civilan homes to catch just one man.....oops, thats right we didn't catch him. Ok, better idea - don't feed our troops and drop more bombs next time, this way pissed off brothers/sisters of the dead civilians can't throw rocks and grenades at our troops. But at least all that military might and intelligence caught OBL....oh wait.....gonna need more bombs! hmmm...It must all be Clinton's fault! _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....
