I kind of like the site so I don't want to troll! I'm still hoping to find a cheap hotel through them- I don't want their "HH" to ban me before I do! I'm used to whuffo BS, but this one has me scratching my head! Some guy just called me an oxygen deprived bitch (not those exact words, but really close!) for pointing out how quickly word can travel on the internet! I think I just need to walk away from this one and keep searching for my cheap hotel!

No, that's really not the point. I have no interest in telling anyone skydiving isn't dangerous. But these people seem to think that a double fatality at a prime tourist destination was somehow hushed up because it was bad for tourism or something! The story is so bizarre!

I've been frequenting an Ixtapa/ Zihuatanejo message board, trying to get some information to help plan my trip next month. (Yeah!) So, I'm reading it last night and there's a thread about Skydive Ixtapa and in the list of responses is a rumor that the operation was shut down last year because of a fatal accident. Obviously, it isn't true but how can I convince these whuffos of that? These people seem to believe that people die skydiving "all the time", so often its not even newsworthy, and its just swept under the rug or something! (Like a skydiving fatality at a major tourist destination ins't going to make the news!) I'm not talking about trying to convince someone that skydiving is "safe", just that this particular rumor about a fatality is false.

lost 3, that's what? 27 more to go!

They could revoke your French citizenship for that!

When I lived in my old apartment building, yes. Always the same neighbors. They lived right above me for awhile, and I could hear them, then they moved to the apartment across the hall, and I could STILL hear them. He was a screamer!
-
Been there done that! Sounds like you have too! Thankfully, its been a long time since I've had to resort to something like that!

If a public bathroom is sooooo nasty that I'm afraid to touch the handle, I sure as hell am not going to use it! Some gas station bathrooms are so gross that peeing in an alley is preferable.

Well, back when I was driving a beat up 1984 Rennault Encore, I thought dating a mechanic would be pretty practical. Anyway, I don't have as many car problems now, but mechanic would still be on my list. Also, veteranarian since one of my kitties always seems to need something, massage therapist or chiropractor. and now that I'm a homeowner, a carpenter, contractor or professional handyman would be nice to have around. But you know the old saying- "The cobbler's wife has no shoes!"? With my luck, if I ended up with a guy in one of those professions, he'd do all his work for his clients and when he got home, wouldn't want to do anything related to his profession!

Its not just that (although I agree!) but consistency does make a difference. Using the same scale at about the same time of day will get a more accurate result overall.

I agree, something isn't right with her but having her be "dirty" is too obvious this early in the season. All of Jack's bosses at CTU have been idiots who didn't let him do his job, she's no exception. My only real gripe so far is with all the characters they cut (like Tony and Michelle who I liked) and they bring back CLOE?? She's soooooo annoying!

They're not even doing the encore episodes on FX anymore, are they?
-
Tell me about it! There's been candy and other garbage in my office since October, but it finally seems to be gone!
-
You're already 2 hours behind! So, are you not planning on watching tonight either??? I just love that show- even when its hoaky and predictable, I'm still on the edge of my seat.
-
Deuce already checked in!
-
Costco had the Tanita body fat monitor scale for $29.99. I've already got a decent digital scale and I'm not sure I want to know how FAT I really am- the mirror is bad enough- so I decided not to get one.

Fat Bastard/ Weight Loss Challenge- whatever you want to call it, I'm hoping it will result in group motivation and help keep me on track. I need all the help I can get, especially during the first couple of weeks. Personally, I kind of liked the Fat Bastard thing, but I understand where some people might not, so that's cool! Monday check-ins should hopefully keep us "honest" over the weekend and Fridays should give a more realistic picture of what's going on. Just my thoughts.
-
I weigh myself naked, first thing in the morning AFTER I use the bathroom! Every little bit helps, right?
-
Minus half a pound- its a start! More important, my slacks fit comfortably this morning!
-
Ummm- its regular night is Mondays- 2 more hours tonight! Then, what? 20 more episodes in 20 weeks. Get a VCR or plan on being home every Monday. My friends ought to know by now I WON'T be picking up the phone while its on!

"distracted by herion"? Interesting choice of words.... My DZ has had some notable "oustings" in the past, nothing lately that I know of. When you are in somebody else's sandbox, you need to play by their rules.
-
I *think* its "Guilty but insane" or something along those lines. Its not a question of a not guilty verdict or of her being returned to society, but whether or not she will rot in prison for the rest of her life or get treatment in a mental facility. Regardless, its a sickening and tragic story.

I don't have the dinero, but it should be a good time. Make sure you get out and enjoy the area- Zihua, Ixtapa Island, etc.

Sounds right- knee surgery rings a bell- and now of course, New England weather! We'll wait to hear from her!
-
Hasn't she already made a few jumps, but circumstances "beyond her control" stalled her AFF progression? Isn't she starting over in a warmer climate instead of waiting until this spring or summer?
