    There IS an easy way ... it's what I do everytime I purchase a new computer. Format the HD and install a fresh, vanilla, copy of the OS (windows XP Pro not VISTA!) without all of the crap the vendors include. Then install only the application that you want. I use a Dell Inspiron 700m. It handles Photoshop and Premiere nicely.

    I'd like to use your example to make this point: a senior rigger with the plastic barely cooled on his card (updated idiom from "ink still wet on his certificate") is charged with the responsibility every pack cycle of inspecting reserve canopies with someone else's major repairs, and approving for them return to service. Now, if he can inspect someone else's work and approve it, why shouldn't he be allowed to inspect his own? Mark What a great question!

    Thanks. This and the Cypress SB are now on my list of stuff to bring to everyone's attention on Safety Day at my home DZ

    Hopefully the recent incident and this bulletin will kickstart a change where more skydivers pay attention closely during the Cypres countdown process. Mike I've always watched the countdown closely on mine. Now I have good reason to bring this to everyone's attention at my home DZ.

    I actually have a legitimate boob/skydiving related question and now I'm a bit too nervous to ask it... Try the Women's Forum

    You probably didn't declare first

    Who said anything about showing up at a DZ? We have the internet!

    Yah ... I hear you ... my mother's father actually ran a mercury mine in Hungary. My mother remembers having coke bottles full of metallic mercury just sitting around the house and my uncles playing with it all the time. It's actually pretty amazing stuff.

    Are there any Republican fund raisers taking place in your area within the next day or two? If so, you should attend one. EDIT: Keep the politics in SC edit: It was just a one line, gratuitous joke. Considerably shorter than THIS ONE Which of you moderators is editing my posts and deleting entire portions of threads, BTW? (not a good way to treat a premiere member)

    True. Today I just picked up a girlfriend for my male Boston Terrier. We have a 11yr old Cocker Spaniel, but he was wearing her out. She is already scrappin with him. I took this picture with my cell phone inbetween rounds.

    Fair enough, Walt. I'll just pull up a chair and listen to what the gals have to say.

    They're not really that dangerous. But yeah, I'm sure that in an elementary school, all it will take is for one litigious parent to bring this up and, yes the guys in Tyvek suits will have to be called in to change the light bulbs from then on.
  14. ChangoLanzao
    You call THAT light!!! Alrighty then!

    And owls. My sister's little long haired Chihuahua got carried off by one when she let him out for a quick minute before bedtime. Eeeek! I know exactly what your saying ... we've had a few chickens disappear under very suspicious circumstances. Debbie has a system for determining whether or not foul play (no pun intended! ) is involved in their disappearance. If it looks like a pillow exploded in the back yard: most likely a hawk or an owl. No evidence of foul play: Two possibilities: 1. Aliens - beamed up. 2. Coyote or Fox. If the chickens have their throats slit and they are lined up in a row all parallel to each other in the chicken coup...well that's an easy one: Mink! Ditto that ... hence the reason why we travel in an RV See attached

    Oh yeah. My wife actually has better tools than the vet! The last time he visited the vet, she was astonished at how clean his teeth were and even complimented Debbie on her work! His breath, nevertheless, still stinks. Does she brush his tongue? ltdiver Good question! I just asked her and she said, " Yeah , riiiiight, you try it!" Interesting idea ... he does lick his asshole an awful lot I'll get back to you on this.

    I second that. I don't think it's wrong to not like hot chics - everybody has their thing. No! Don't tell me ... you're one of those Cleveland Steamer fans?
  19. ChangoLanzao
    Dayum! I'm gonna try that right now ... stay tuned for a report!
  20. ChangoLanzao
    Ew. I think I might've dated someone like that once. The infatuation wasn't enough to overcome the halitosis. There's hope ... we're working on it. He's actually getting to enjoy those Listerine PocketPaks

    Happily ever after
  22. ChangoLanzao
    You obviously don't know her!

    Not enough! I'm assuming a lot because I'm not getting an answer. Perhaps you're not getting an answer because it's not your business. Suffice it to say that the breeder and I came to a very reasonable arrangement because she thought I would be a good match for her dog, and she understood how tight money is for me right now because I'm still paying off my cat's vet bills. Sheesh! Who cares? Dogs are really priceless If it's any consolation: We paid $150 for PeeWee (see attached) and he does't even have papers!

    Guinness is the name of one of my chinchillas. Ha. I used to have a rabbit that was herbivorous chriptorchid ... we named him Bud
