  1. Make em' laugh in the heavens Shannon. You will be greatly missed by so many. You made a great impact in this world and community. Blues...... "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  2. I take it you don't like sea turtles much, either, huh? You don't have to be a cold, hard killer to survive the times. Dude! Check out my user name - Honu = sea turtle (in Hawaiian). Sea Turtles are different....I think it's the lack of large, razor sharp teeth, the lack of getting food my using a "death roll"....ya' know, that type of stuff "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  3. I think I'll take swim in shark infested waters for $200 Alex. Gators were here when the dinosaurs were and unlike the dinosaurs, survived whatever it was that killed almost everything else - I ain't fuckin' around with that kind of an animal. Now sharks, they have VERY bad eye sight so my thinking is that they might not see me and if they do, you can always punch them in the nose, poke em' in the eyes, etc. .....not that I EVER want to be that close to one or have the need to use those techniques "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  4. Ro: I know what you are feeling. Canopy flight has always been the hardest part of skydiving for me. Like you, I took a canopy course and it really did wonders for me - learning the actual physics of what the wing does and what I am doing to it. I agree with others here, I'm not so sure it's the actual canopy flight that is worrying you more than the canopy flight under the current gear you have. There is absolutely no pressure to jump today or tomorrow if you don't feel comfortable with that gear. I know you want to jump but you should also feel as comfortable as possible during all sequences of the jump. See you in a few hours & we'll chat more - drive safe
  5. I'll have to miss yet another infamous Elsinore DZ party Maybe we should hold a pre-party party on Friday!!!
  6. My dog does that too! My husband and I call it "Family Love." If he can't sqeeze inbetwen us while we are hugging, he will go behind me and stick his nose at my butt and nudge until I let him in the circle for some "family love." Weird and somewhat violating but again, oh so cute
  7. And, the problem was? Um yeah....8 women in one house = somone is always using feminine thingys + dog digging said feminine thingys out of trash = [insert puke icon here] "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  8. Ok, I'm thinking that too falls into the "TMI" catergory! "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  9. - my dog prefers to dig out the dental floss. But I'm not complaining, my first dog like to dig used female thingys out of the trash....and I lived with 7 other women "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  10. I'm beginning to think cats are really weird. Eating clothes, smelling armpits...I guess my dog really isn't that weird afterall "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  11. Well....at least you didn't inhale it in "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  12. Mine has several but here are some that top the list: My dog makes a human yawning sound when he yawns My dog also makes some sort of snort/sneeze noise in response to absolutely any question you ask him. And finally, when I give my dog his favorite treat (Jumbone) you MUST play with him and touch the treat at least one time after you gave it to him or he won't eat it. I have no idea WTH is up with that "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  13. I can list 10 things at my current job that I find much more disgusting than picking up a little dog crap. Mind you, I currently work with attorneys "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  14. I went to school for it (post college BA) and then picked it........BIG mistake What I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to do - own my own doggie day care
  15. You need a choice for other: Hoegaarden "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  16. Both are very cool. "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  17. Here are the Florida statue of limit.: Does the $60 include any "collection fees" (i.e. is $60 what was owed by you or has interest/fees accrued)? Have you tried contacting the collection agency and negotiation a "pay-off"? Usually, if they are dealing with an straight up person (i.e. no debts, collections of other kinds) they'll work with you. In the end, it's your choice - how much is $60 really worth to you? And, if you honestly owe the money, then why not just pay up and get it off your credit report? (P.S. be sure you get something in writing from the collection agency showing they have removed the item from your credit report). "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  18. Only immediately afterward. It lasts about a minute or so and then I'm ready to roll "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  19. I like backing into spaces too but if I see someone behind me, I won't do it. I think it's rude to make them wait and wouldn't want someone to do that to me. Reason I do it is b/c of where I live. People around these parts see a car backing up and they don't stop, the fuckers speed up (which has resulted in a lot of near misses when I can finally see the car and the fucker speeding past me when I'm already 3/4 out of the damn spot) Great! Now I have a wicked case of road rage and I'm not even driving! As far as taking more than one try to back it in - if you need more than one try then you probably shouldn't be backing your car in....let alone driving. "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  20. Ok - obviously not me but a bad ass (and cute
  21. Spreading Chocolate "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  22. Ok, I have a mini IPod and it is possessed. The battery won't stay charged for shit....or shall I say it actually has a full charge but some demon microchip inside the little fucker thinks the battery is ALWAYS dead and I get a weird message on the screen that says "Battery low, blah, blah, blah..." I've done all the updates, I've done all the troubleshooting tests suggested by Apple, and some suggested by IPod users and nothing has worked. The screwed up thing is that since the battery is actually not dead or low, the IPod will play songs but skips the songs I purchased and only plays the songs I downloaded off CD. Apple says they've heard of the problem before but have only been able to remedy it for some of the Minis. They will charge me at least $50 to fix it, if they can, plus I have to be without my IPod for 2-4 weeks. Luckily, I purchased it from Costco and still have the receipt. Costco says they'll take it back and give me a full refund of the price I paid for it over a year ago. Here's my question, I want to get a Nano to replace the Mini. Can I transfer the songs in my current library, registered to the Mini onto my new Nano? "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  23. Yeah. Stop being such a pussy! Sorry, couldn't resisit... Zipp0 It TOTALLY sucks - I used to be just fine flying. I've been flying by myself since I was 4 yrs. old....I don't know WTF is up with having issues with it now "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  24. Ok, once again I have to fly in a passenger jet About 5 yrs ago, I developed a seriously overwhelming fear of flying. It doesn't get me so much in little planes, helis, etc. but the jetliners kill me. My fear is that the steel tank is going to nose dive to Earth. I often try to combat the fear by thinking things like "the pilots don't want to die either" Anyway, I don't have time to go to the doctor for any type of serious drugs so I was thinking about picking up some dramamine at the drug store. Anybody tried this for fear of flying? Does it work. Usually what will happen is when we hit turbulence and the fucking wings start flopping around, I think they are going to snap off and then I get a WICKED onset of uncontrollable sweating, I usually find myself clencing my arm rests, and am listening to every freakin' sound the damn plane makes in case I hear something wrong (like I would even know ). I've been told Dramamine just kinda' calms everything down but it was a bunch of stoners who told me this, so...... I've tried reading, typing on my notebook, I even did that stupid thing from "Die Hard" and took my shoes off and walked around (doesn't work). Dramamine? Any other tips? "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
  25. WAXED? Dammmmm dude, utmost respect!! I shave my boys.. don't think I could handle the waxing though. Nads, no-heat hair removal for men Blues, Dave ooooh....I used to use Nads. So, I gotta' ask - have you run into the situation, yet, wherein you don't get it warmed up to quite the right consistency? "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
