  1. Good point about Einstein. Also, where would NASA be without Von Braun? I doubt Armstrong and co. would've made it to the moon without his rockets.
  2. Remember when you took the day off work so we could hook up at Skydance? (even though you were still a student and we couldn't even jump together). Never forgot that man, you're a good person and I know things are going to work out for you Gary. Major good vibes crossing the Atlantic right now.
  3. OK, if you are going to play the humanitarian angle, then how about Rwanda? Almost 1 million people got butchered there and nobody bothered invading to save anybody. Please don't tell me that Iraq is going to be invaded to protect the Kurds (or anybody else). George W. Bush is in the pockets of the oil barons. The oil barons want cheaper crude. Getting cheaper crude will make the oil barons and the consumers (ie voters) happy. Getting a second term will make George happy. This is about oil. The war on terror is giving Bush an excuse to invade Iraq and aquire and safe-guard a major source of oil. Will
  4. Mike, where have you been hiding??? Did the leash finally snap or did you find a new supply of drugs?
  5. Huh?? human lives??? I'm sure any residual effects from collateral damage will be assimilated for the greater good.
  6. WWII was the most *expensive* war the US tax-payer had to pay for. This war helped kick-start the US economy and led to the boom in the 50's. War is definitely good for business (so long as you win of course... ). Will
  7. Read this Anybody who thinks Iraq will be invaded for any reason other than oil is delusional. Dubya has a recession on his hands. One way to get out of recession is to go to war, the other is to find cheaper oil - why not combine the two? Still makes me a bit sick though that the oil companies are already squabbling about how the pie is going to be divided. Will
  8. LOL Don't hold back now Mike, tell us how you fell... (I voted for Brunel, didn't Jeremy Clarkson do an excellent job? Really stated the case for Brunel with enthusiasm)
  9. Well, with a bottle of ketchup my costume raises the ante in the bad taste stakes just a bit...
  10. Tear up an old sheet into strips, tie the strips around yourself (like a mummy), tie a rope to the top of your head and there you go : you are THE HUMAN TAMPON!!!
  11. I think the time zone thing makes a bigger difference than anything else. Last year when I was working nights at the TV station it was a lot easier to be part of the fun. But often it can seem to people who aren't in the Americas that what they post is ignored in the Talkback forum. The non-American thread is NOT exclusive, its just a nice way for those of us who are on-line at roughly the same time to keep in touch. Will
  12. Bloody hell its grim up north!!!
  13. Or maybe you have just a *little* more time than the rest of us to stay up to date...
  14. Don't try and bullshit us Ferdi - you just want to go down in history as the man who started the longest thread on dz.com.... Will PS how the hell do you guys keep up with this thread? Flat it is hard to follow and threaded takes friggin ages.

    How did you feel when you landed at Bridge Day? If you were still married you would never have got to make that jump - you would've gone through your whole life never knowing.... You'll meet a woman who will understand (maybe even be a part of?) the things that are the most important to you. Of course one of those things is probably dz.com - poor woman....
  17. Spotting made easy : * wear hiking shoes * take your passport (and foreign currency) * take GPS (not for spotting, for getting back) * wear a life-vest As for spotting itself : When you get in the plane, close your eyes and start counting to 1 000. When you reach 1 000 jump out (shouting 'CUT!!!' over your shoulder as you go). Open your eyes. Check your altimeter. Look down. If the cars are all driving on the left then you are still in the UK - no problem, deploy main at '3 000. If cars are driving on the right then you are over France - deploy main immediately and head west (using personal GPS). If the cars are all boats then you are over the Atlantic - prepare for water landing. (but I'm crying on the inside... )
  18. I think you should give it to your ex's new bf as a present (slip him some rohypnol and then do some DIY body piercing....)
  19. Yeah, and stop 'Taping the Hamster'!!!
  20. Oh please, do you really think everybody has forgotten about you and Bill Von Brainiac being Brothers in Bondage???
  21. Push my foot so far up him that only the top of my boot sticks out???
  22. Define "morning", or more specifically morning when/where? Otherwise what makes this different from any other thread???
  23. Hey, a fleece blanket, some KY - Clay and I'll more than just *loosen* him up!!!
  24. Cool, look, I just posted to a locked thread! Woo-hoo - I HAVE THE POWER!!!
