  1. I agree with Gale.... I teach 14 year olds...I do not think that they believe in their own mortality. Most 18 year-olds don't either, but at least they are old enough to sign away their legal rights. I think it is irresponsible of any adult to sign away rights for their underage child. Anne
  2. Missouri Bluebird (?) The Show-Me-State I am scared of the song, if we have one.... Anne
  3. or for the lazy Anne

    You know,

    In my first class freshman year of high school I had a crazy (but amazing) teacher. He opened the class with a little lecture about how 90% of what we know is useless and the other 10% is wrong. It was a little intimidating at 14 year old! Anne
  7. Heck yeah you should go!!! 40 is cold, but it'll make you tough!!! Screw the cold, go "hang out" with the new hottie! Have fun! Anne
  8. Now wait a minute Pammi...Joe did NOT say he is a non-drinker..... I have seen the proof...(though I hardly remember it myself....) Anne
  9. That is great news!!! Congrats to you too, Speed!!!! Anne
  10. Congrats! Isn't that a great feeling?? When I closed on my house I moved in a month before my furniture...just me, a sleeping bag and the cats.... I spent two days just touching things...this is my doorknob...this is my wall...this is my hole in the kitchen ceiling.....not all of it was perfect, but it is all mine!!!! (ok, the bank owns most of it. Evey month I figure I buy one more doorknob or hinge. That is about all I really own of my house......) Again, congrats and enjoy! Anne
  11. My Roommate story: The best thing about her was that she did not move in for the first month of school. We had a freshman quad as a triple for a whole month I liked her when I did not know her or have to live with her. She moved in. She left the door OPEN all the time. It was my computer and stereo system that would have been stolen first...I might have been able to get over that.....then came the first weekend of November.... I had just had my first date with a guy I was majorly into. It was chilly, so he lent me his jacket. It was an MIT Lacrosse team jacket with HANS stitched across one breast...I was thrilled to be wearing his jacket, as only an 18 year old can be.... Two days later I wake up to find my roommate WEARING HANS'S JACKET!!!!! So I say, "What are you doing?" "What?" "The jacket!?!" "Oh, I didn't know it was yours." WELL, YOU KNEW IT WASN'T YOURS, BITCH!!!!!! WHO ELSE IN THE ROOM IS DATING A GUY NAMED HANS??? Then I looked down and noticed that she had on my shoes. She took off the jacket and shoes and left. I got out of bed and went to brush my teeth (we had a sink in our room) MY TOOTHBRUSH WAS WET!!!!!! EEEWWWW. That was not the best morning of my life. The three of us kicked her out a month later. Anne
  12. I myself do not have an RSL on my Mirage....but I think that it would probably be a good idea to order your rig with one, then you have the option of using it or disconnecting it on every skydive....if you order without you never even have the option of using the RSL... just a thought Anne
  13. Loving mine!!! Wishing I had ordered two...... (I can fix that, huh?) Nice job, HH!!!! Thank you! Anne
  14. Every year around parent-teacher conference time we get a list of what you want to say and how to say it in a PC way. My fave is: Want to say:Susie is a bitch-in-heat slut ass tramp. PC way:Susie socializes too much. HeeHee. Sometimes I really wish I could say what I was thinking at conferences!!! Anne
  15. Windy on Saturday?? We were bitching about no wind......hell of a lot of good surfs..... Come play with us...we are fun Anne
  16. Dave, Don't try to confuse me...it is too easy when I have been drinking...... Anne
  17. ahh...she was talking about lost shoes...i was explaining my lost shoe..... Anne
  18. The good news is that it was only a $90 skydive for me....the jump ticket plus the cost of my Adidas.... I thought for a while there that I had lost my custom made orthodics...at $100 a piece, that would have been expensive..... Anne
  19. 0:7:0:1 Okay, I had a wet shoe. I had clean dry socks. I thought it would be a good idea to line my shoes with plastic bags....to keep my socks clean and dry.... As I left the plane something felt weird. I lost a shoe. A shoe. The left one. I blew it off and flew the dive... and I did ok!!! I had to land in the mud ( there are no real dry spots in Illinois right now) with my shoe less foot. So much for keeping the sock clean and dry!!!! Anne
  20. Ok, the math teacher in me is reawakening after my weeklong cruise..... On the first equation you have MPH being multiplied by a facter less than one to get a smaller number for knots. On the second equation, you switch it around, saying that the knots number is higher than the MPH number.... ONe of those equations is wrong, it needs to be division or to switch the palcement of MPH and knots in the equation. Is this too nerdly??? Anne
  21. 0:7:0...but i might buy a case anyway...I t feels like the first RW I have done in forever..I took a five week hiatus from jumping due to weather, sickness, and a cruise....And we finally got full altitude again.....Welcome back, King Air!!!! Anne
