If you win.. can I have $4,000? Please? That is all I need. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

Just got back from the doctor. My knee cap sucks and there is a good chance I will need surgery. I think outlook is good for having a good knee in the future.. the only bummer is that the next 4 weeks I was going to bust my ass packing to save up for the school year. So financially... this will be a bother. Someday I will be independently wealthy.. and everyday will be a good day to mess my knee up.

Ear candling is a gimmick. It does not actually provide any sort of benefit to the ear, and it can definitely harm your ear. Hot wax can drip into your ear canal.. that doesn't sound like fun to me. http://www.quackwatch.org/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/candling.html "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

In my home in Virginia we had tons of hummingbirds. One night my dad and I decided that we would try and get an even better view of them from our dining room table. Well, we opened the window and hung the feeder inches from the window. Before we knew it there were 2 hummingbirds inside the house going crazy! Don't try that. It is scary trying to catch hummingbirds. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

That is hilarious.

I already hiked several miles on it. No thanks. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

These don't work, at all. Seriously.. don't ever stick a flaming peice of paper and wax in your ear. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

You may have impacted cerumen down in there. In other words.. you shoved your excessive ear wax way down in your ear. For earwax removal you may want to make an appointment with an audiologist. Be careful about trying to remove it yourself, it would be easy to rupture your eardrum. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

This is a stupid question... but I am finding a doctor to make an appointment with.. do I want an orthopedic surgeon/sports medicine doctor? "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

Oh damnit... I was so confused. I thought you were referencing my awkward phrasing of doctor's visit.. I was like, do asian doctor's do house calls or something? "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

I would like to memorize that punch line and just use it out of context as an ice-breaker at a party some time. It will make me sound cool.. I am sure of it. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

No. And I don't really get the joke either.. but I edited my post just to be on the safe side. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

So I was backpacking this weekend.. walking down a steep trail and twisted my bad knee. Trying to self-diagnose and see if this could be worth a trip to the doctor. My knee isn't bruised.. just puffy and I have a limited range of motion. It clicks when I bend my knee to a certain point. I can't put weight on it when my knee is bent.. but I can hobble along relatively pain-free if I keep my leg straight. So what do the DZ.com doctors think? This has the potential to be shitty. I'm a packer and this is my money making season. So please tell me that you've had this and it resolved rather quickly on it's own. (Oh yeah.. am doing the RICE thing.)

Writing in the landing area

I've done this many times. THe way that we make the proposal sign is we have a very large peice of heavy black plastic. I think you could probably get this at Home Depot or someplace like that. Then take register/receipt tape and a packaging tape gun (Obviously with clear tape) and go at it. We have one huge sign at our DZ and we just change the girl's name on it when we need to.

How Freaking hard is it to get a FAST Food order correct?

That's cuz it says hardees on the sign. Not Carl's junior. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham -
A Word from Jaleesa Marie, Back from CAMP! :)
karenmeal replied to ACMESkydiver's topic in The Bonfire
I wish that I had been at camp this week! It sounded like it was a blast! First its camp.. next it's skydiving boogies! Right, mom? Will you beg your mom for some more tie-dye shirts so that I have someone to tie-dye with me? -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham -

We don't fuck with the local girls in perverse ways. We feed them jungle juice per their request straight from the tap on the container but accidentally spill some on their too-nice for Lost Prairie clothes. Seriously.. people who wear high heels around Lost Prairie deserve jungle juice on their shirt. Alright.. now tell me how evil I am and quit whinging at the Canadian.

Those locals have hurt the boogie so bad by trying to pick fights, being assholes to the women and giving the place an un-safe feel on Saturday night. Fuck the local assholes, it is the number one complaint about the LP boogie and one that the managment has been trying to address unsucessfully for a long time. They are the reason I go to bed early on Saturday night. I don't feel safe getting drunk around those guys. How would you guys feel if you were in the middle of having a kickass party at your DZ and got interrupted by a bunch of drunk strangers with guns who were trying to pick fights? If fucking with the locals gets them to leave, I'm all for it! Maybe we should just spike their drinks and pile em up out in the landing area where they're out of our way for the evening!

Being 5'5" is plenty tall enough to pro-pack even a 500 foot canopy. Believe me. And the age of the canopy barely affects the difficulty of flaking. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

It's a good thing you don't drink if you can't appreciate some good ol' drunken debauchery. I can't wait for LP next year!! We get to go next summer! "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

There is a giant rock that has some dirt on top and some small trees that juts out into the water. Great picnic place. You can dive off the rock.. but it was too cold yesterday to go swimming. I'm taking a group of DZ bums up to this place next Monday and Tuesday (our weekend) for some relaxing. Wanted to go up there this week and check to see if there were good campsites for all of us. Attached is the view from the rock. -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
