Don't forget to ask about the dental benefits too!

I just downloaded it yesterday after I got home from work. It's the admin version of it, and it's pretty hefty!
-
Well, our LAN at work is 10/100, and I would be pushing this 267-Mb patch with HFNETCHKPRO. However, it looks as though the AntiVirus Server's scheduled client scans will have to be disabled for the evening. BTW, what do you run in that datacenter, Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

What sort of sp2 installation times are you getting assuming that you're installing from a share?
-
I just downloaded "winxp_sp2_admin" at home since our network at work is really slow lately. Pretty amazing file size for a service patch; maybe it's Windows 2003 Workstation!

Every skydiver in the northern states has at least a 5-month lay-off every winter.

No insurance, single mother with two dependent children, and a home mortgage responsibility? Amazing!

Spend your time and money getting a college degree; it will be the smartest thing you ever did when you look back on it. Without it you'll be giving up even more later in life: the lean ladies, your physical and mental health including your teeth, and that's just for starters. Look around...it's not a pretty sight being a loser. BTW, Dan, you are simply postponing skydiving until you can do it right!

You only make money from Real Estate when you sell, not from cash flow. Between now and 2010, you can expect modest economic growth albeit a scandal along the way as the baby boomers move south for their retirement years.

Hello, my name is Emily and I have a weight problem

You need some wind tunnel time with a coach. -
The swoopers can simply squeeze out the air from their canopies against their thighs or chest while standing. What is the best surface to pack on for the rest of us?

Sounds like your father lived an organized life, and he was able to clearly see the end when faced with it. I've listened to many folks talk tough about the end, but when it arrived they didn't have the moxie to deal with it, and they all went down curled up in a fetal position and usually in terrible pain. The medical community kindly exhausted their savings too. As you said, he lived life on his terms. You have my sincere condolences.

You need a term-life policy without any exclusions in a reasonable dollar amount such as $250k-$500k. Anything more is probably a waste of money unless you have unusual circumstances.
-
Easy, your automobile policy. If your rig walks off the DZ, just toss a large rock through one of your auto's side windows, and then call it in to your claims folks. However, don't expect the renewal policy to go down in price.

You probably need to get the harness resized, and it will cost you extra in labor expense, but it's worth every cent. It took me several trials before it got it right, but my rig now fits like a glove and allows total body movement...even without rings. The biggest issue for me was getting the 4-point junction low enough on my hips to allow a sit-fly without having the leg straps loosen. Look-up some old photos of Roger Nelson from his early years, and look closely at his harness positioning; he was free-flying before generation-x was even conceived.

I hear 'ya except that you should have replaced it with an older high mileage Toyota.

I look forward to reading your memoirs, Bill.

I'm using Mozilla 1.4.2 with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 WS, and it a solid browser, but it won't render fonts correctly on some sites. I sure wish there was a common standard for clips though, or a player for sale that would play-em-all.

F8ck him! Let him die, not my problem, not the DZ's problem.

That's pretty young RIP; were you a Microsoft Samurai or 'ya doing the 5150 thing? -
I have aways liked the Plextor line of products as they're usually supported by most of the software companies. You will need a fast computer with at least 512-MB of memory and at least 10-GB of free disk drive space. I use one at work, not yet at home. The amount of storage space on a DVD still surprises me. If you can afford it I would consider a USB external unit.

Confronting a Type-A personality is not an easy thing to do at work or the playground. I'm glad that nobody else got hurt, and I wish him the best of luck with his recovery. -
Hi Kelly, Are you accepting "walk-in" business such as minor repairs, reserve re-packs, etc., at your new location? Thanks! -- RMS

The former president has a good body position; he didn't go fetal like many passengers.

Great pix--thanks!
