  1. How bout use a hook knife to cut the steering line that is hung up?
  2. Come out to northern cali. Lots of DZs in the area, and at the end of your trip you can catch the start of the Davis boogie. We have plenty of booze, and other items previously mentioned in the vicinity.
  3. A more accurate version of that story would be, a line painted on the floor with lettering indicating only a certain number of people allowed to the rear of the line, people disobeying the rule and stalling the plane, the rest of the load yelling at people who broke the rule, and then on the very next load it happens again and people die. Its pretty simple, follow the rules. If the tail striker had never been told to not jump up, and it happened, then it would make more sense. The fact is, is that he was probably told before it happened the first time, and definitely before the second time. Analyze the risks, learn to avoid them. His failure to listen to instructions caused him to be injured. "You don't have an AAD on your rig. So make sure you pull, or you are gunna die!" Follow the fucking rules damnit!
  4. Damn. I jumped from 18,000 out of an otter on my 3rd AFF jump. You know, the one where you don't do any maneuvers, just your prcps and hang out. It was sweet! I did start to feel hypoxic and asked for the O2 around 16,000.
  5. More updates, looks like they are fairly sure it broke up before it made it to the surface. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090603/ap_on_re_la_am_ca/brazil_plane
  6. Neighbors are about to get their ear drums blown out, with exhaust THAT short. Just kiddin. Lookin good! You planning on bringing that red up further? Some pin stripe might look good, it usually goes well with the flat black, sorta a 30's roadster style.
  7. http://whatreallyhappened.com/RANCHO/CRASH/TWA/twa.html Well, usually this conspiracy stuff is not my thing, but we know that the military was doing missile testing in the area, that many people saw a missile leave the surface of the water (from a submarine) and missile propellant was recovered from the seat fabric. The common excuse is that the damage is not consistent with an explosion, but if it was a missile test then it would be using a dummy warhead. Take the time to properly analyze the above link, it has some good data.
  8. To be accurate, twa800 didn't explode, it was hit by a missile that had no warhead, and the damage caused by the missile going in one side and out the other was enough to separate the nose from the rest of the plane. One of the biggest government cover ups of all time. What did the planes that flew through the same area before and after note about the level of turbulence? These planes are built to handle a LOT of turbulence, to the point that people inside are dying because they are hitting the ceiling if they are not belted up. I doubt just bouncing around is what took it down. If it was indeed weather related, I would think it possible that it went inverted due to a severe updraft/downdraft and went past VNE, breaking up.
  9. BikerBabe brianfry713 Cashmanimal Feeblemind Flygirl Grannyinthesky jamiem longwaytofall Monkeyboy mswallin13 NWflyer sivaganesha some guy named mike wmw999 Aw, you countin me out already? U know mike and I gotta get in on some of that tailgate goodness.
  10. I have about 1k rounds of .308 and 1k rounds of 7.62x39. I would have a bunch of shotgun ammo if I could find it cheaply enough, but its expensive. How hard is it to reload shotty ammo?
  11. An independent and capable woman is a great thing. If you are in a relationship though, it makes sense that you share responsibilities. IE she cooks dinner and washes the clothes, he drinks the beer and verifies the couch's long term durability. Relationships take sacrifice.
  12. Sounds like big trouble. You're going to need plenty of legal advice before this thing is over. As your attorney, I advise you to rent a very fast car with no top. And you'll need the cocaine. Tape recorder for special music. Acapulco shirts. Get the hell out of L.A. for at least 48 hours. Blows my weekend.
  13. Ah I see it now. Did you bend it while it was installed or no? I have the technique down with a screwdriver lifting it up and onto the bho, but if it increases reliability I am on top of it.
  14. Yeah I figured NK did not have nuclear warheads specifically, but was trying to answer the question of "why we should be concerned." It honestly would not surprise me if they did in fact have ICBMs and warheads small enough to fit on them, you never know what they are working on underground, and the technology certainly is out there. Thanks for all the cool data, btw. Can we establish from the gas clouds how powerful the blast was? Also, using plutonium, what sort of blast would be expected from the size warhead that is capable of being small/light enough to fit onto a short or long range missile?
  15. Grab some of the large quit smoking patches. Opiates and nicotine, are like............ sex and nicotine.....
  16. That is quite high. It has been awhile since taking my EMT class!
  17. I ride with a shoei, and like it very much. As others have said, each manufacturer has a different shape, so try on the major brands and see what fits best. Shoei, Arai, Icon, Suomy, all very good lids. My bro has a Suomy that was very expensive ($700) (He works in a motorcycle apparel store and knows his shiznit) and it is a NICE helmet. Incredibly light. Anyways, figure out which brand works for you, and then get the model that matches your price. As others have said, more vents is something you can't add later, but I can bet you will want.
  18. CVs have always worked great on the jap bikes I work on, although you might decide on more cfm, especially with a cam. Cool lookin bike. Make a video for the first start up!
  19. I finally got around to notching the BHO. Thanks for the picture. I see your spring leg has a bend in it, is this because the spring can slide forward enough to slip off of the BHO? It has already slipped off on me once, but I filed the BHO a little to make a shelf for the leg to sit into. If it is going forward though, gotta make a bend like yours.
  20. What is the current pump/breath ratio nowadays? Someone said they upped it to 20:1
  21. Only Civil unions. Let the people give themselves the marriage tag.
  22. Damn looking good. What are you running for induction?
  23. I didn't know what you were talking about, so I used urban dictionary to look it up. That is a cool device you have! 1. booster box A tool used by shoplifters. Usually a shoebox with one side of it cut out, and lined with tin foil. The missing side is held against the body and items are stuffed into the box and then walked out of the store. The tin foil is used so that the anti theft device won't set of any alarm systems on the way out. Often tested by putting a cellphone in the box and then trying to call it. If the phone doesn't ring, then it's usuable. If it does, the one solution is to use more tinfoil. On a side note, you will be arrested if found in posession of one of these, even if you were not in the act of shoplifting. Dude let's hit up Best Buy, I just made this sick booster box and they won't know what hit em.
  24. Why not keep the topic in the other thread? You seem to suggest that Marriages and civil unions are the same thing, I think that is completely wrong.
  25. I agree with your position, but your argument is retarded. Hetero=opposite sex. We have this now. Homo=same sex. This is what is being debated.
