  1. I used to breed pussy. With all the kitten killing that goes on here, I guess I should start doing that again! t It's the year of the Pig.
  2. Anti gun liberal view... as requested. Ahh Jeffrey. Don't you know that the 50 cal is considered an anti Materiel round? It's the ecconomics of sniping. That a 2 man team could disable 10 fighters and a radar instalation for an ammunition cost of under $100? It's a terrorists dream! That .50 BMG is the smallest practical HE round available? What you don't know is that there are probably terrorists all over the world practicing with these weapons right now... As for them never being used in crimes, I SAW one used to shoot down a police helicopter in the movie "SWAT" so don't you try and tell me they're not deadly terrorist friendly weapons. (Tonto removes tongue from cheek) Damn fine toys if you ask me. I'd LOVE to own one. t It's the year of the Pig.
  3. Who's the dude in this suit in the pic on the wall? t It's the year of the Pig.
  4. Well, semi-auto..... And left handed too. Just as well PB are big on ambidex safeties/decockers on Mod 92 variants.. (Which incidently is ready to go..) As for the Taurus people... Who developed that weapon? PB, or Taurus? Who copied who? Honest answer? Recent Taurus models have the safety moving forward through only about 30 degrees, while the PB moves through 80 degrees. The safety is clearly visible in the pic. Of course, we don't know how old the pic is, or even the country the pic was taken. If it were late 80's, in Brazil, I'd go with Taurus, otherwise it's an open debate. That pussy (Who incidently is male - as ALL ginger cats are (and did you know that any 3 coulored cat is automatically female?)) better not make any sudden moves.. t It's the year of the Pig.
  5. HAI YAI? Is that at all like Wing Chun or Jow Ga? t It's the year of the Pig.
  6. I'd buy a tent, a real good sleeping bag, and a ticket to Arizona... t It's the year of the Pig.
  7. Clicky still no work... But thanks for trying! t It's the year of the Pig.
  8. I have over 3800 jumps without a helmet. I have both my ears, and I have no dents in my skull. Skydiving helmets are complete crap. I see their shattered peices lying about every bounce or relativly low impact head injury I've been at. If you think, even for a moment that that thing you put on your head will protect you against anything other than abrasion, you're a dreamer. If forced to choose a helmet for protection, I'd choose a ProTec. Ugly as sin, but if you're wearing a helmet for protection, that's what you should be wearing. Anything else makes you an over confident fashion victim. Flame away. t It's the year of the Pig.
  9. Except, of course, that if you have a "floating PUD" and you choose to immediatly fire your reserve or your cypres fires, your main container is closed and there is almost no risk of a main reserve entanglement. t It's the year of the Pig.
  10. Really? And why would a BOC not do the same? t It's the year of the Pig.
  11. I wouldn't use you as a rigger, yet. I'd like you to experiment with solutions that all documentation currently available says should not work and have you try and get it to work, or justify your actions in court first. After that, I'd think about it. t It's the year of the Pig.
  12. I'd use you as a rigger. I like the way you think. t It's the year of the Pig.
  13. Really? The plague in a bottle today is a WMD, and we don't even need the fleas that live on rats to spread it anymore... t It's the year of the Pig.
  14. I'm still guessing... Whenever I'm getting into discussions like this, I always think of birds. They have no understanding of physics, or the difference between weight and mass... and yet they fly quite well... t It's the year of the Pig.
  15. I'm just guessing. Erno visited with me for a time in South Africa before moving on to Oz, and he's from Finland. If I was from Finland, living in Oz and thinking in American... I just know I'd screw up somewhere! Most of us are simply accustomed to putting what we weigh in the box that says weight, without having to do the KG to Lbs conversion. t It's the year of the Pig.
  16. So... why do I know it living in Africa? Does this knowledge only travel south? Or are our CC's just a little more insular? t It's the year of the Pig.
  17. Answered on Erno's behalf, since those in Australia are sleeping right now. Those would be Kilograms. The unit the rest of the world uses to measure mass. 85kg... or 187 pounds. t It's the year of the Pig.
  18. Ditto. The curve pin says what it is. The canopy's just feeding Whuffo's and they hate people who do things they don't. t It's the year of the Pig.
  19. Spot on. But Septics don't live in the world. They live "over there.." t It's the year of the Pig.

    Now that puts things in perspective rather nicely, I think. I think I'll drive home really carefully tonight... t It's the year of the Pig.

    Grounded... no. But the weather's been marginal lately and I managed only 20 dives this past weekend out of the 36 I had manifested. That sucks. t It's the year of the Pig.

    Good job! Here in SA you'd have forced her to a standstill and then shot her in the head, after nailing the baby in the car seat. Some things just shouldn't be tolerated. t It's the year of the Pig.
  23. Mmm. What happened to "drop and roll" or do they teach the "run and fuel the flames with O2" these days? t It's the year of the Pig.
  24. Yeah. It's really me. Promise. I like to keep up to date with the F1 news, but not really on who's shagging who. Ever since I saw Mika in tears behind the bushes, I've tried to stick to the results rather than the gossip... t It's the year of the Pig.
  25. Can't read either without registration. Can't you cut and paste it on dizzy? t It's the year of the Pig.
