    i tried buying that and the update to warhawk over the weekend but the network would not accept my credit card info - it kept telling me it was wrong...i guess i will have to buy one of those cards with money on it.

    Hahhahahahaha what a moron. If you change course 360 degrees you end up going the same direction you were before. Idiot.

    Just wait until we find something useful in Africa....

    That was a very interesting take, and along the lines of what I was wondering about in the original post...thanks!

    Yes, that is what I was getting at - that the US is, for better or worse, like it or not, hugely important on the world stage wrt economics, wars, etc. Therefore, what happens here has an effect felt outside of the US borders, and given the current state of affairs a change at the top could affect a lot more than just the United States.

    I think my largest *current* worry for my next camera is mounting it. I have a PC-120 that was giving me error messages (though I guess I could see if it's just dirty and get a head cleaner) mounted in a rawa with the specially-made Pc-120 attached box. I loved the setup because the camera was protected nicely and fit snugly. If I switch cameras I essentially have to buy a new helmet. Also, I really like side-mounting the camera and I would like to see a good hi-def camera that could be side mounted. Cost right now is an issue, but I don't expect it to be by the time I really *have* to replace my camera.

    When I have kids, i think a choice like that is up to them. Also, I think that if I went skydiving and thought it was OK for me to do so, i think it'd be a bit hypocritical on my part to say "no, it's too dangerous for you, you can't do it"

    Errol's comment as an "interested foreigner" in the "unelectable" thread got me thinking... In my opinion, the US elections probably affect the world as a whole as much or more than any other presidential/leader election/changeover in any other country. In various threads, there are posters from outside the US that have commented on candidates, the political process, etc. I was just curious about hearing from these non-US posters about what thought (if they did at all) about what is going on here w/regard to the presidential process - the candidates, issues, etc. Are "foreigners" worried? concerned? curiously amused? as ready for change as this country seems to be?

    Reminds me of one of the first Man Shows where they went around asking women if they favored women's suffrage.....

    As much as I hate IU right now (for college basketball related reasons--I went to Illinois), I'll throw in my 2 cents (maybe it will help). If you start one, you may want to contact the Falling Illini for pointers as to how they run things, or maybe the guys from Purdue....that may make start-up easier for you. When I was in the Falling Illini, we were kind of disorganized, but that was a long time ago so maybe they can help you....I gotta imagine that the more organized and 'professional' you are, the better your chances of convincing the powers-that-be that you're not nuts for trying to organize a skydiving club. Also, if you have a DZ in mind, they might be able to help you with student discounts and just general information to pass on to the people you're trying to recruit. Good luck!

    the problem is you're attempting to drive in this crap....if you avoid that, it gets a lot easier...

    Just out of curiousity, how important do you think it is that a president have served/fought? Not downplaying it, I'm genuinely curious as to what people think and why.
  19. FreeflyChile
    Nope...that's what public transportation is for.

    well one in hinckley would be nice, but i dont wanna drive out that way in a day like today. the navy pier one would work for me on a day like today...take the el to where i can just take a bus and then spend the day learning how not to suck in the sky.
  21. FreeflyChile
    and it will continue to snow...from what i heard we have a winter storm advisory til 6pm tonight. i just hope the el doesn't break, cuz then i'm fucked! days like today are EXACTLY why we need a tunnel in chicago. i'd have skipped work and gone to fly indoors!
  22. FreeflyChile
    Considering southern IL begins with I-80, that could be any number of places!
  23. FreeflyChile
    Coast Guard?
  24. FreeflyChile
    On that, I agree with you...

    Of course...but how many products have you used in your life that you have had no complaints about? is it as many as the ones that made you mad at the engineer that designed it?
