I love chai, but it's hard to find it made right. Most coffee shops make it way too sweet. And I can't get it strong enough myself at home. Nothing grosser than weak chai. I like herbal teas, too, but not with milk, eeyuck. Skydiving is for cool people only

My check's in the mail, too. I can help get the copy print-ready, and I have a few years of layout and design experience, too, if you need help with that end. Skydiving is for cool people only

I love the packing paddles crossed behind the flag. Skydiving is for cool people only

I caught it by accident. "I am Yennifer Lopez, and I like tacos and burrrrritos!" It was appalling, yet hysterically funny at the same time.

I liked her avatar. And though I hadn't met her, some of my favorite people thought she was great, so I liked that she made my friends happy. Skydiving is for cool people only

We will wear camo facepaint and black stocking caps, and in the dead of night we will reclaim Sheepy. Then we will hold a triumphant news conference at Lackland AFB. It will be phat. Skydiving is for cool people only

That's not good news -- it's fanfuckingtastic. And the other news is great, too. Thanks for posting this tonight. Skydiving is for cool people only

Oh my gosh, how spiteful. Skydiving is for cool people only

Me too. Blue skies, Holly. Skydiving is for cool people only

I just made thread #20,000 in Talkback! Skydiving is for cool people only

Hot damn, that does sound good. When you have your stopover in San Antonio, bring me some. Skydiving is for cool people only

Thanks Wendy! I still need the vibes...they haven't made a hiring decision yet and probably won't for a while. You think reading for dough is cool, I used to get paid to EAT! Skydiving is for cool people only

Hmm, I'll be optimistic and say I'll be shooting for 250 at Raeford. Congrats! Remember when 400 seemed like SOOOOOOO MANY? Skydiving is for cool people only

Except with a lot less money. OK ladies, our first selection is "The Dirty Girls Social Club" by Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, a former reporter for the Los Angeles Times. This book, her first, was written over a period of six days. It will be released in stores May 6. I'll let you know if I like it.

Well, even if that interview I had doesn't pan out to a promotion, they liked me enough to ask me to start doing book reviews and some other writing for them. So now, I will read the hot new novel before it is available in stores, and get paid for it. Yeeha. Skydiving is for cool people only

KIDS ‘TERRIFIED' OF DRACO MALFOY ACTOR In a twisted way, it's the ultimate compliment for an actor. “Harry Potter” star Tom Felton said children keep bursting into tears every time they see him in public, reports Ananova.com. Felton plays Harry's evil adversary, Draco Malfoy, in the Potter films — and some young fans find his performance a little too convincing. He said every time he walks down the street he makes children cry. “Kids of 6 and under have a real thing against me,” the 15-year-old actor said. “They cringe and start crying. Some kids are really quite terrified of me. I even scared the director Chris Columbus' children when I first met them. “It's upsetting and not very nice because I'm not like that in real life. But at least it proves you've done your job well.” Meanwhile, “Potter” author J.K. Rowling has said one of the characters in the forthcoming fifth book, “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” will be killed off. And Felton suspects Draco might be the one who meets a sticky end. “I've got the feeling I'm going to plunge to a bloody death,” he said. Skydiving is for cool people only

Hi Val! Love you too! Hey guys, the interview went spectacularly. While I suspect the job will go to someone much older (I've only been out of college for four years, and the posting is for someone with 10+ years experience), I really think I wowed them and I'm proud of myself. Thanks for all the good thoughts. It means a lot. Skydiving is for cool people only

Actually, yes -- I researched each and every one of em and they're jotted down with my other ideas in a little notebook for me to whip out during my interview. Skydiving is for cool people only

That was no crack whore, that was me! Thanks guys...I opened up this thread and got a little sniffly. I'm very, very young to be applying for this job, but what the hell. Nothing ventured, et-fucking-cetera. I'll let y'all know how it goes. Skydiving is for cool people only

Hey, just 'cause I prefer to fly in the natural and unfreakish orientation of my belly doesn't mean I won't do a raft dive! Skydiving is for cool people only

I know that's where it used to be (I took a packing lesson there), but I think he moved. In the latest Skydiving, his ad says: 209 E. Hickory St. Denton, TX 76201 940-484-2222 Skydiving is for cool people only

I never thought I'd do this, but I have an interview for a promotion in the morning, and I'm really scared. Can I have some vibes? Skydiving is for cool people only

Well, the threshold that marks it for ME is your first freefall with your own gear wearing a pumpkin costume! Therefore, NONE of you are skydivers!!! NONE OF YOU!!! Ahem. My point is that you can't define to someone else what makes him or her a skydiver. What about the folks who are physically unable to jump on their own, but have a shitload of tandems? Hey, to me, leaving the plane is leaving the plane. Six tandems is a level of commitment to the sport that most of the world's population won't show. Skydiving is for cool people only

I pulled the ripcord myself on my tandem. Tandems in a student progression also teach canopy control and body position. Six does seem like a lot, but tandems are not an invalid form of skydiving. You're still hopping out of the plane. Skydiving is for cool people only
