Can you guys help me identify a rifle please. Trying to do some research before interviews and it seems they don't like to make things easy for you by giving you the info beforehand!

He y'all just hush your damn mouth one hootin' tootin' cotton picking minute son. Soccer is a game for sissies and we don't lik eit in these here parts, you understand?

It's the same as when people say good morning. They don't neccesarily mean it is a good morning or that they are having a good morning, its just an expression. I think I'm going to resort back to grunting like some of the other neanderthal type males round here, they might be on to something

TKD: If you get taken captive by 3 men just remember this

If we had a MEN ONLY forum this would be ideal!

Stroker although thats not whats brought this on! Was someone else

OK, why when your talking to some women, your in a good mood, everythings cool, do they want to tell you how shitty everythings going for them!? When I say 'hows things' or 'how you doing' I'm just being polite, I don't really want to know, I expect you to say 'yeah good thanks, you?' Blokes don't do that, their house could have burnt down with all their family trapped inside and they'd still give a positive reply. In short, I don't care that your boss is giving you a hard time, I don't care that someone cut you up in your car or that your boyfriend is being a prick just lately. I just want to have giggle, a laugh and a joke so please don't ruin it for me END OF RANT

LMAO - Nice avatar by the way This is what I meant for more appropriate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qT5YOBfvHvU

Yeah, I agree, throat slam isn't exactly appropriate, imagine the respitory problems he may have had. He wasn't actively resisting but being mindful of what he may have been holding in his pockets an arm entanglement or inverted wrist lock with step over may have been more appropriate. Laying on someone with their arms underneath them just causes problems

OK, this is most definately not a home office approved technique but it was very effective When unsure as to someones mental state or intentions, take them down before they get a chance to take you. Hat off to the cop I say, at no point (until striking) did he get so close to the subject as to put himself in danger. I wish more officers would do it, I see too many friends getting injured from not remembering basic officer safety lessons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmL4s1JwsJQ Also a perfect demonstration of the 5 step appeal

AFF4 Issue - Spinning. Suggestions?
Scoop replied to chrismgtis's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I had this, what I did for ages was to keep lying on the floor in an arched position and looking to see if my legs were symetrical, some people try tapping their heels together in freefall too as a kind of referance. If you got money to burn and want to get it right go to the tunnel. I only have 10 mins to my name but it was a great setting to learn, especially during early stages of AFF, if really compliments your progressio, in my humble opinion -
So! What kind of treats are you handing out to the trick or treaters?
Scoop replied to SkydiveStMarys's topic in The Bonfire
No but it was a sunday night so the kids were out, one group of them said they were going away for halloween so thats why they were doing it now. As usual what is a one evening event becomes a week long pain in the arse. Much like bonfire night, new years etc... Why can't people just celebrate things when they are supposed to be celebrated? -

One probably got a bruised hand last night Offered the bag to a lad and he grabbed as big a handful as he could so I squeezed it really tight til he let go and told them that if they were gonna be silly they wouldn't have any. I personally gave one to the smallest who was about 4 and then shut the door. Greedy older fuckers aint getting anything off me! No parents either, just left to roam the streets. When I were a nipper, my older brother got roped into escorting me and we only knocked on doors of people we knew, neighbours, friends of the family etc, not everyone! -
Sunrise are sending me a new handle/cable so when I get that fitted I'll address the packing issue, I'm not jumping it between now and then anyway. I will ask to pull the reserve myself @ Kernel Panic: I doubt it, that spring is pretty fearsome and the flap doesn't really tuck in as such, it just sits there

I've not heard the term acid metal before. What is it?
-
Haha, we never played that. I think the worst games we had was in army cadets when we were in our billets and everyone turned there beds up on their ends with the legs facing one way and you had to run the gaunlet. Next to every bed was a cadet ready to rugby tackle you/punch you so to get past all the beds without impaling yourself on a leg or getting some sort of injury was impossible. We had one rather rotund kid who ran like afucking juggernaut flattening everyone and when he got to the end he just kept running straight through the closed fire door. Was classic! Then we all got bollocked and ended up doing drill in our boxer shorts in the snow at 3 in the morning *sigh* But it was great! Rough and tumble is all part of growing up and learning about yourself. If you dont know how strong you are who will you know who you can pick on?
-
I really don't know what to say, it's bad enough kids under 16 aren't allowed to do scrums in rugby anymore. But what with this and banning playing tag and instead having the lunchtime walking club, I really don't know what is happening to society. Next if your kids are caught playing soldier they'll be reports sent home that your child is displaying violent tendancies

*gulp* You love it you slag

Yeah, the whole plane was wooping with over excited foreigners, we had to do a go around because some people were taking too long getting out the door so the pilot found us and extra 3k on his circuit. What a hero
-
I think when I'm old an illegible for national service I'll agree with it too. Funny how most old fuckers say its such a good idea (not directed at you Tony, I'm speaking generally)
-
Hey Tony, this might be of interest to an old timer like yourself, take you back Something for Tony

Lol, I had red marks all around my neck, chin and face for a day or so (open face helmet). We launched a horny gorilla then went flat and stable for the cloud, we could actually hear each other screaming and gripped really tight in pain soon as we busted the cloud we just held it flat and stable, just in relief to have got over that, it was like someone blasting a sand blaster at your face for a good 25 seconds or so Yeah, in hindsight it was stupid and seeing the rain streaming over the cockpit windows as we climed to altitude should have been my first warning sign. Still, we got 15k feet, I could hardly sit out that oppurtunity!
-
Hey I like 60s music, its just not one of my classics, you know, thes ones you grew up hearing when you were a lad. My brother used to play all that stuff and so I got into it as well. Now I have fond memories when I hear them

I love cloud busting. One place I went to had total cloud clover and we are talking thick rain clouds. The only downside was they were about 5' feet thick and hurt like fuck with the water droplets. At deployment I realisde I was way away from the DZ and couldn't get back and could here the rain on my canopy I landed about a mile off in some field between the main road, a concrete water irrigation channel and the power lines. But damn was it fun!
