Us guys with beards don't need any of that other crap to be cool - we just are! "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

If we limit it to fighting, your probably close. If we include killing - you Americans make many countries look like amateurs.

You're welcome! I like giving full information - its just my nature to be helpful.

poll doesn'y fit me... I say "I don't care" "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

you can try Paragear - maybe this will get you the information you need... http://www.paragear.com/templates/parachute.asp?group=35&t2parent=2&parent=9&level=3 "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

They're tasty too! Hmmmmmmmmmm... goosey "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

Fixed it for ya

I got in but I want to add my voice to those that do not like web sites that are high on glitz but require more software and more bandwidth to access. Many companies seem to buy into their marketing department's high budget websites that do not cater to the customer but get big department budgets and more staff. As a person that has headed a systems department in an international company, I've seen this in more than just skydiving circles and it makes me wonder how budgets get approved. Sure the web site is a vehicle for sales but more than that it is a vehicle for information and that information drives sales. The executives making decisions all have high speed internet access and an IT department that makes sure that their notebook is loaded with the best and latest software, where ever they roam everything works great for them and so they assume that this is true for everyone, everywhere. Not true! They have not figured out that those who have trouble accessing their wonderful web sites are not getting the information and buying elsewhere. But the marketing department says they have a just html version for those people - idiots! Who looks for that extra link to click on in fine print at the bottom that gets you to second rate website. No one does! Everyone tries to get to the regular web site and those that have problems, give up and go elsewhere. PD is not alone - the are others - off the top of my head another great offender is Aerodyne. There - I feel better

You're right. I did the on-line conversion thing and 4000 meters is about 13,123 feet Thanks for defining that "undetermined space"

Nope I donate plasma every week and they use a big ass needle to draw out the whole blood and then after they've separated out what they want, they force what they don't want (red blood cells and other goo) back into my arm. Just on my way now - I go every Wednesday. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

First... we ignore nothing... nothing...

Spoken like a true oppresser

But I'm not in the US, I'm in Canada and so is the source I noted.

Nobody really wants that crappy Ontario grass... on the other hand B.C. bud is a quality product. (of course I don't know anything about this first hand... its all rumour...) People will even go to the effort of building tunnels to get B.C. Bud into the USA. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

So you're not allowed to get naked ??? Still seems to me that this would be more fun to play with the wife while naked. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

You play this game with your wife ??? I'm trying to understand the motivation... are you both naked at the time? "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

We'd notice the higher murder rate (bringing the thread back on topic). And we'd notice a higher infant mortality rate (they don't only murder grown-ups down there... they kill babies too!) "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

We'll trade you ALL of Quebec (a big place with resources and some say culture) for little old Florida (funny shaped, looks like a dying dick, has to be re-built every couple of years due to hurricanes). Its a good deal, really BTW, our military may be out numbered and poorly equipped but you know, they really are tough and brave bastards. They have to be... because they are out numbered and poorly equipped, and they know it. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

Here's one idea... "Skydiving is DANGEROUS. Please don’t die without having pulled all the handles. Never stop trying to save your own life, all the way to the ground." "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

here's a source for it. http://www.justmakeit.com/fabrics/marine/neoprene.html "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

Looks like the perfect altimeter for a Cessna dropzone... never going to get to that holy crap area. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

Don't believe this... beer is good... girls like men that drink beer... they wouldn't show it on TV if it wasn't true! I just haven't figured out why the guys on the ads don't have big beer guts like me... They don't have any disclaimers on the beer ads calling into the question the efficacy of beer to attract girls, so I don't think that every skydiving ad needs a disclaimer

Thanks, now I understand... there is that undetermined space between 12,000 and 0 "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy

Who wants to invade Canada? It's not 1812 any more. You Americans won't try that again... not after we whooped your butts the last time!!!
