How old is he? What fun!! My youngest (21) and I still fish together. He has more time than I do so he fishes a lot more than I do. He has probably caught 250 nice blue gills this summer. Goooood eatin'. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

I have no problem at all with Vonage. They sent me a different brand router though and I use it with Comcast cable. You might want to check out www.sunrocket.com. One of the guys I work with is trying it and has had no problems. They give you a free 2 phone cordless outfit free. It is cheaper if you pay up front for a year too. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

Hope I can make a few jumps there someday. It would be neat to visit the area again. Is Happy Landing Restraunt still there? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

Isn't that fairly close to Interlaken, Trumansburg and Ovid? I lived in Interlaken when I was a kid for about 3 years. Isn't there a DZ called Finger Lakes Skydiving outside of Trumansburg? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

My reply was to the mention of Christians in particular killing abortionists. This is trying to point to Christians being as bad as Muslims as far as killing people. The handful of times (even though it is still too many) this has happened is a flyspeck in the you know what compared to the deaths inflicted in the name of Islam. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

QuoteThe bible says the same things. It says to kill non believers. ---WHERE? It says to kill gays. ----WHERE? It says to stone you child to death if they disobey. ----WHERE? It says to sacrifice for God. -----SACRIFICE WHAT? The difference is that MOST Christians/Jews don't follow the Bible. ----MOST? HOW MANY DO YOU KNOW THAT DON'T. Some still do...Those that claim they are killing Abortion Dr's in the name of "God". -----HOW MANY HAVE DONE THIS (not that it is right)? HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN KILLED BY MUSLIM TERRORISTS? Desperate people do desperate deeds. ----DESPERATE PEOPLE USE DESPERATE AND EXAGERATED WORDS. Note: caps are not meant as yelling, just to show my reply. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

*** The Catholic Church had its Crusades. The Muslims are in the midst of their Crusades right now. Quote The Crusades were in response to Muslims that had already forcefully taken over half of the Christian world. HALF of the Christian world, not a few incidents of extremists, HALF of the Christian world at the time. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

I think it was sometime in the 80's I remember a team called the Stay Free Maxi Fliers. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

Good luck finding him. My dogs have gotten out a couple of times and I go nuts looking for them. We've been fortunate enough to get them back. Have faith you probably will get him back too. Check the local dog pound. That is a logical place since he doesn't have a collar. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

In every one of those religions being gay is known as a sin. It would disrespect those religions if it were forced by law for them to get married in for example a church. QuoteWell here I go. I know many of you are not into religion and I am not trying to shove anythin down anyone's throat. This is just in the way of explanation. No, most churches, especially the Catholic Church do not think being gay is a sin. The sin part comes in when it is acted out in a sexual way. The same as we believe it is a sin to have premarital sex between a man and a woman. We (Catholics) believe that sex within a marriage is a Holy act intended for procreation. That is the whole thinking behind not allowing artificial birth control. If the possibility of procreation is not there then the sex act is not complete. Also procreation is not possible between two people of the same gender. Thus the stand that we don't agree that marriage between gays is ok. We are called to reach out to gays (not for their throat) just as we are called to reach out to others that have a potential impediment to their salvation. As for Christians trying to push their beliefs on others, I am afraid there are some that do. But those are the only stories you hear of. Mainly because you are not aware of the many that are all around you that simply have a kind word or a kind act but let that speak for them. A great saint (name escapes me) once said - "Go out and evangelize and sometimes use words." Just imagine that you deeply believe that we have an eternal aspect to our being and that when we die we will either live in everlasting torment or everlasting bliss. How hard would it be to not impose yourself on your friends or even just aquaintences that behave in a way that makes you wonder if they will have the torment forever? Remember, I am not pushing I am just trying to explain a viewpoint. Oops I left some extra of the quote in that I was replying to. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

The correct spelling is One hundred one. One hundred and one denotes 100.1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

First 10 jumps in 1974 for $90 out of a 182. First spot out of a Cherokee six cargo door when my instructor told the pilot to take me around again as he left the plane. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

From Snopes: Origins: "Biggest woman in the world"? Not quite. This is yet another case of an e-mail forward that includes real photographs but an inaccurate description of what they depict. Heather Greene, the woman shown in the photographs above, is indeed a real person, but she's not from Holland, nor is she the tallest woman in the world. Heather lives in Las Vegas, and although she is quite tall and passes the 7-foot mark in heels, she is "only" 6'-5½" in her stocking feet, well short of the record for the world's tallest woman. The photographs sent around with the message quoted above are actually sample pictures taken from her web site, heatherhaven.com. The pictures are "real" in the sense that they have not been digitally manipulated, but they convey a false impression of Heather's true height because she is paired with people who are shorter than average (the man is 5'7" and the woman 5'1"), and she is posing in some of them while wearing shoes with several-inch heels. Since 1976, the tallest living woman in the world (as recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records) has been 47-year-old Sandy Allen of Shelbyville, Indiana, who reached a height of 7 feet 7-1/4 inches as a teenager before undergoing pituitary surgery to control her growth. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

After only 31 years (and 300 jumps) I finally got my A license. Thanks to Ron and Brenda O'Brian from Napoleon Skydiving Center (Michigan) for taking the time to get me squared away. I've been hanging around DZ.com for awhile and really enjoy reading some of the stuff here. It helps during the week and on those nasty Michigan weekends we sometime have. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out. When the director of Nursing became aware of Edna's heroic act, she considered her to be mentally stable. When she went to tell Edna the news she said, "Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness. The bad news is that Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself in his bathroom with the belt to his robe right after you saved him. I am sorry, but he's dead." Edna replied, "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

Done, it's not a lot but it is what I had on account at paypal until I get my account squared away. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

All I know is that it took less than a year to know she was the one. We met when she was 15, started dating when she was 16, got engaged when she was 17, married when she was 18, first child when she was 19. Started jumping the year we got married. Jumping was inconsistant (300+ jumps) but marriage was very consistant. Four kids, 3 grandkids and 31 years later the marriage and jumping are still great. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

Something else to think about is going with cable and then switching your phone service to Vonage or the like. You can get 400 minutes of local and long distance for 14.99 a month or unlimited for 25.00. We have Vonage on Comcast. It has a little more background noise but you can't beat the price. Helps justify the cost of Comcast. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

Back in the late 70's we used to pass a bottle of champaigne in freefall on every 100 jumps. The celebrant had to chase the bottle holder. Then we opened it under canopy. What a mess. You had about a third of the bottle left after it got through spewing all over you. Now this was at a little known dz in lower Michigan where we got away with a lot even for back then. Admittedly it only went on for one summer. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

I don't know much of the technical stuff but I do know I have done it and the biggest problem in turning a pleasure/weekend plane into a jump plane by taking the door off is all of the sand and crap that blows around. Goggles for everyone including the pilot are called for. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.

We've got a couple of those here in the north suburbs of Detroit. We rode one way for about 10 miles last year and didn't come close to reaching the end and that was only going south, it continues a long way going north too. My wife and I both bought Trek comfort bikes a few years ago. I never knew what it was like to own a real bike. Not a Huffy. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lord, let me be the person my dog thinks I am.
