    I want one too!!

    I love taunting.... Really. I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles

    Hey, as long as there are laser beams involved, and people that can see us from space, I'm totally in!! I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles

    Ok, I'm not sure what CSI means, but... "Giant Walt Robot. Roaming Las Vegas Desert. With Laser Beams" GWRRLVDWLB for short. now that has a certain ring to it, no? (Dude. Laser Beams.)

    Yeah, that all sounds great ... except ... Siouxbot sounds so banal. Can we go with "Giant Sioux Robot"? I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles

    ... and the Sioux robot would start laughing too, and then she'd say... "Oooohh, shiney!!" Because she'd be towering over Las Vegas. And it would be shiney.

    WOW! You have a very active mind! I was stuck on a Sioux robot roaming the desert.... With laser beams.... I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles

    How crazy/funny is this?? I want a giant Sioux robot roaming the desert shooting laser beams, too!! I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles

    Cute as a Knut!

    Yes, you are right. I didn't want to get into the whole "should he be alive or not" question. The fact is that he will never have to live in the wild, and arguably, will never have to live with other polar bears. Is he better off for being alive? We'll see. These little guys do tend to get bigger. I just wanted to say "Aaawwww.... so cute!!"

  9. Not necessarily by looking, but if he hits on me, he's most likely married I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles
  10. In your defense... I know a couple of FW pilots that did some helicopter training and they picked up how to hover in the FIRST lesson. I was humiliated by that, since I seem to be a bit retarded when it comes to hovering.......

    Cute as a Knut!

    Their point was that he should never have been kept alive. Since he was kept alive, they said he should be put down to obey natural laws. At first, in the newspapers, they were saying that they were thankful for the debate going on, but now they're all "No Comment."

    Yeah, I noticed that I worded it wrong, too. I guess there aren't animal rights activists out in nature injecting abandoned cubs....... I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles

    Cute as a Knut!

    How cute is this baby polar bear? It's mother abandoned him so the Berlin Zoo Keeper has been feeding him with a bottle. There was a minor controversy when an animal rights group said he should be put down by lethal injection since that's what would happen in nature. But since Europe has fallen in love with him, that discussion has fallen away... http://news.yahoo.com/photos/ss/events/lf/022504polarbears/im:/070323/photos_ts_wl_afp/377d6c729d5d5bdf848dce17aa6561ea;_ylt=Amlt7npdKcZTeV1lIVtud.PmWMcF edit since it seems to be a clicky...

  14. It's true. But if just flying a helicopter is enough (as it is for me), it's sooooo fun to learn! Expensive and impractical, but still a blast.

  15. Wow! Cool! I have about 20 hours in an R22-beta. Hovering is difficult, but once you get it, you get it. For me the difficult part now is landing approaches (I'm always too high in my downwind/final), and autorotations. You have a truly awesome neighbor. I wish I had something like that to practice in
  16. Dude. Seriously. Sometimes it's the biggest nightmare! But when everyone has a huge smile at the end of the day, it's easy to feel good about it.

  17. If you have a DZ on your side, then you are already very fortunate. They already have numbers in place for pilots, aircrafts, manifest and maybe even restaurant personal. In general, you need to put a business plan in place. Expenses: aircraft, pros, pilot(s), manifest, DJs, bartenders, music (speakers, amplifiers, band??), food, alcohol, wait staff, printing tickets, computers, loudspeakers, etc. Income: Boogie fee, ticket prices, money paid for food/drinks. Like I said, having a DZ on your side is a major help. They can take care of the infrastructure. The rest of the boogie is up to you. That includes everything that distinguishes your boogie from a normal day at the DZ. Things like pros, music, food, drinks, competitions, advertising, etc. You can hire people to help you, but you need to pay them with money you earn through the income column above. PM me if you want more help.... I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles
  18. Excellent suggestion... I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles
  19. I was in the US and got DENIED in a bar. They wouldn't accept my passport or my Swiss driver's license. For a beer!! I'm 40...... Jesus, I'm 40...

  20. If I buy the safest car on the planet (with an AAD, of course), and drive it off a cliff, will I live? I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles
  21. I'm having a party in a small Swiss village for my 40th birthday. Yikes! I can't believe I'm this old... ... Anyway... I'm thinking of going total Vegas. Jumping out of a cake, etc.... But I would love some suggestions.... I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles
  22. If any of you international travelers ever find yourselves in Switzerland, be sure to look me up (PM me). I live within a 2 hour drive to 6 dropzones, and own an adventure sports company, so there is tons of adrenaline to be had I love international travel, too
  23. A girl I know was watching me pack and asked if my pilot chute was my reserve... I haven't seen such convoluted lines of conversation and such expert chronicling thereof since my days of all day bong marathons in college. ~ Lindercles
