  1. I dont bother talking to wuffo's about skydiving. Its just not worth the hassle and frustration. __ My mighty steed
  2. So what? __ My mighty steed
  3. Nope. The wife controls 100% of her money and 0% of mine. I control 100% of the dick She likes sex too so there isnt a lot of withholding going on since that knife cuts both ways
  4. You DO still have to take each of the exams as well. I went straight from A to C but I still had to take the test for the B __ My mighty steed
  5. If its your money you dont have to convince your wife. __ My mighty steed
  6. Absolutely. This is the standard I hold myself to
  7. Actually it is just that simple. Right is right and wrong is wrong and a vow is a vow and forever means forever. We do not qualify our vows by saying: "I will be faithful to you alone until we are parted by death, or unless one of the following circumstances arise..." We make a solemn oath. Its inviolate, like it or not. Nobody ever said that living according to a code was easy. Its frequently anything BUT easy. It does have its own rewards though, which in my opinion are worth the sacrifice. If my wife were to become mentally or physically incapacitated that would be very unfortunate for us both, but it does not release me from my vow. Even if she didnt mind if I strayed. Even if she cheated on me first. All those circumstances are irrelevant. None of those things change the fact. My vow is MINE. My sense of honor and self respect are mine alone. Its also not about whether or not other people are hurt by my actions (although that does matter) If I cheat, it diminishes me in ways that I am not willing to be diminished. It really is that simple
  8. All cheaters suck. Male or female, and there are plenty of both. Plenty of both will read this post, I'm certain. There are NO circumstances under which cheating is acceptible. None. Period. Your SO is a perpetually drunken, shrieking shrew/asshole day and night and you happened to be really drunk? Crap. Thats still no excuse for living without honor. Leave them. THEN find someone else if you want. Its not even about doing right by the other person. Its about doing right by yourself and living with honor. __ My mighty steed
  9. I've been married for...well..seems like forever __ My mighty steed
  10. Looks like you've had a grand total of 2 seizures. Both while asleep. Both while unmedicated. Seems to me that if you stay on your meds, and stay awake during jumps, your odds of seizing in the air are slim slim slim. I cant set your risk vs reward thresholds for you, but in your shoes I'd continue to jump. __ My mighty steed
  11. I'm not making Michael out to be the responsible party. I'm indicating frustration at the lack of reliable information being released to the public about any of it. There ARE people that know whats going on at all levels and they are not passing that information on to us. Whats the big deal about telling people whats up? Its not hard. __ My mighty steed
  12. Last word I saw from WFFC was that they were on July 5th at the earliest. I'd say that you are wrong to think that we are receiving reliable information about the jet or anything else for that matter. Thats what pisses me off. I can handle the truth. Problem is I'm not being given the opportunity. __ My mighty steed
  13. I was wondering the exact same thing. It would be sooo good to try and fall fast with someone for a change.
  14. I havent met anyone from anywhere that could drive properly. Except for myself, of course
  15. I dont expect it. Thats the point __ My mighty steed
  16. Dont forget to tell them why we go up when the parachute opens. __ My mighty steed
  17. Thats cool. Just dont hold your breath. Putting the testing off for a week (at the earliest) just a couple weeks before the convention strikes me as...I dunno... Stupid. Either that or preparing an excuse for why it wont fly jumpers. Well we just couldnt complete the testing in time...sorry __ My mighty steed
  18. I'll second that __ My mighty steed
  19. What happens if they say that you arent a real skydiver? Whatever it is, it must be pretty bad __ My mighty steed
  20. I didnt know there was such thing a "Freaking Heaven" How the hell does one end up there? Can you bring ear plugs? __ My mighty steed
  21. Dont know that I'd define the way I ride my Harley as "putting"
  22. By exploiting the workers! By hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society. __ My mighty steed

    TBI sucks

    Looks like my brothers car. He had a similar experience 2 years ago. Significant temporal lobe shearing. He was in FINR for a long time... He still isnt right and probably never will be. No beer for him. He wants to drive again, for fuck sake. He was the worst driver in the universe before the accident. Some people just cant learn. __ My mighty steed
