Yes, a Woman U.S. President would be Historic and In todays Chaotic World just might BE the shot in the arm , for which this country is loooong Overdue... IF Hillary is the Leader, and the Motivator and the consolidator that we'd LIKE to believe she Is, then How about she gets on board , with THIS dramatic scenario..???? Form an alliance, wherein Hillary is nominated as the Vice Presidential candidate along with Elizabeth Warren as the Presidential part of the ticket.... Ms Warren ( D ) Mass. has shown herself to Be a champion of the People.. of the middle class of "the working stiffs"...Yet she has Good Knowledge of the "corporate " side of things as well... She has a sensibile head on her shoulders and speaks firmly and with conviction. By NOT having to cowtow to allllll that the president deals with... on a daily basis, VICE president Clinton might then be able to concentrate on heading up certain Key committees, or legislation generating groups,,,,or fact finding commisions....... Establish a REAL working Partnership between the Executive branch and the Legislative branch which has for decades... been an inefficient and NONproductive blight to the American people. Ms. Clintons foreign affairs knowledge can be utilized on an advisory basis by President Warren... and as VP Hillary can more easily work "behind the scenes " A true patriot, IF Ms Clinton IS that...could show great wisdom to take the Co-Pilot role instead of P I C .... I Like Eliz. Warren. Whenever i see her or hear her being interviewed.. i Like what i see.... keep an Eye on HER... I also Like Ms. Clinton though i recognize that she is Polarizing, and many folks Hate her.....so we'll see what happens... we now return you to the usual SC chatter...

Heeey !! Fantastic...!!! thanks for posting.... "Ok.... ahmmmm sorrry " " He SAID he was sorry " hahahah Man,,,I Laughed !!!!! jmy

Nancy wanted to change the paint color in the powder room so i took the chance to Pull the vanity and sink and then re-install it after building a corian backsplash for it. I had the material kicking around in the garage and had just enough left over to build a couple of shelves in the space between the wall, and the cabinet. Our daughter who enjoys painting, and CAN " Cut in " with a brush... like nobodys business , came over and knocked out the painting in a day...

Was saddened when i read the news that this man had passed away.... I SURE DO remember him,

GOOD for you..... worry NOT what your family thinks....it's Not easy to explain the allure of the sport. Glad to see that you're at The Ranch...Great people great staff Great airplanes... When you drive there from CT. do you drive past Brewster NY ? I grew up there and still have lots of family members in that town... OK i guess since i have YET to "grow Up " i should revise my words and say,, " I was a KID there " ,, in the 50s and 60s " jmy

180 days and 6 months,,,, are 2 different things... Those months with 31 days, mess everything UP.. "support you local Rigger "

I am having trouble UNDERSTANDING this.... the term "karma is a bitch " should not be applicable to anyones,,,,, death.... and then do you mean the world is "better "?? cause she's gone?? or because she WAS here....?? Anyway... it's too bad she's passed... She was funny as a stand-up in the Carson Ed Sullivan days and ALWAYS a perfectly pretty Woman... As times rolled on, Her way of "keeping pace " and staying in the eye of the "fans " she got a bit overboard.... Her choice to persue and repeat elective surgical procedures is something i'll never get... Such drastic changes to appearance, and such costly procedures... Sure in Some cases reconstructive surgeries are a GodSend.. in other cases, evidence of personal uncertainly, or the need to conform to others around you.... Not to mention $ome Big Buck$... R I P J Rivers.. you WERE Unique...

on a beat up old CD player / radio... in the shop.... The Moody Blues !!! homemade CD. maybe 16 or 17 tracks... probably 15 years old... some places it skips... and so i advance it... hahaha. good tunes. great instrumentalists...nice Lyrics i could be GOOD for a few weeks. ...with this same disc. It's simply..... " A Question of Balance "

hmmmm someone NEEDS to show them BOTH..... "La Puerta" !!!

AND especially IF they were willing to JUMP that packjob!!!!!!

the only Times i was Ever IN a 727....i did NOT land with it !!!! IF it WAS Noisey..... It was MUSIC to the ears of MANY.......!!! jmy

when I first saw the title of this Film,, a few weeks ago. I was Hoping it would be an in depth look at the life of a one million year old Australopithecus Fossil, unearthed by Louis Leakey.... THAT , if accurately Told... could be a damn interesting story.... sort of a fictional Non Fiction, story...

spent some time with Friends and Family

a friend told me about this and So i have been watching For it... i check any list of movies, i see, , newspaper, internet, and Yet have Not seen anything about it... I already KNEW it was good, because i trust my friends opinion... WILL see it.... first chance i get. jmy

Well SHOOT..... Nothing wrong with skirting SC, but you never heard THAT from Me !!! Yes On Saturday Evening they played Tuesday Afternoon... They started the concert with Gemini Dream.....and followed with a dozen or more great songs...Then played the One song which i did NOt recognize,, played some tracks from albums which i always liked, Seventh Sojourn and Octave... When Justin introduced the 4 other Musicans who played with John Lodge, Graham Edge and Justin Hayward ( Flutist Ray Thomas is Not with the band for this tour. ) he introduced them one by one and then finished by saying .. " we're all JUST singers in a Rock & Roll Band,,, and that kicked things OFF into THAT tune.

We made a leisurely 90 minute drive to Niagara Falls, as Nancy had surprised me with tickets for The Moody Blues this past Saturday...( She sometimes takes a tour bus with friends from her bowling and golf leagues for a day trip to the casino ) ( tickets were being advertised a couple of weeks ago as "still available " , so she bought a pair.)

Great question... will be following the replies. for the DZs TO 15K is it "get there and get out " i.e. no O2....?? for the others ( or Maybe FOR the ones TO 15,000feet ) is it ' on board oxygen via hoses and canulas ' ? For those locations listed at 18 Grand Plus.. what ARE the arrangements for O2 ? Are most of these places doing this with King Airs??? That would be My guess...But i'm interested to know . We were lucky enough to have Mullins & Co. visit us one weekend @ Frontier Skydivers I bet 50 or 60 people were able to make a high altitude jump, and lots of memebrs made 3 or 4 ...The Plane was flying fast and flying frequently !!! " exit Exit EXIT " anyway..... Is a PAC 750 a Good choice for 15 K and above??? any other planes good, or specifically NOT good ( such as a C182 ) Yes i can see the appeal of a wingsuit flight from Way Up there... just remember.. " at some point you inevitably GET.... to 4-Five !! jmy

in a fair and openminded approach, I read the article which the OP has linked....

i have often wondered,,, did God create Man ? or Did Man create God ? we NEED answers to scientific and philosophic questions that mankind has had for a million + years.. until we developed the ability to Deduce........and to USE the scientific process, it was simply easier to go with the catch-all generic response which was..| " The God(s) have made it so. You MUST believe.."

hmmm. pretty tough to Do.... just another reason to stay the hell OFF commercial airliners imho i prefer planes with Jump Doors... IF you DO get out... and it's without a rig.. I.e. catastrophic structural failure.... and as Others have suggested, you Can TRACK........ And IF that's the case.....then track for trees !! Baby,,,, Track for Trees Or else a large body of water !!!

Well, HELL, THEN.... IF you have 100 jumps,,, does THAT mean you can jump within 50 Meters of spectators ??

a quick note about demos, on Golf Courses or even OUT Landings,, on golf courses... The terrain is OFTEN,,, NOT a flat as you might think... Lots of hills and some of them Steep... especially around Some Greens... You should always scope out the Exact area where you plan to land...( IF it's a demo ) and if an off landing, maybe target for the center of a fairway. Your depth perception doesn't always kick in,,, like youy might expect.. and landing Into an Upgrade, and even a severe Downgrade... could cause an embarasssing landing at best, and any sort of injury, at worst. Golf Courses...be careful. jmy
