  1. That is what being under Part 91 brings to US skydiving. Less expense and less accountability. A two edged sword. But irrelevant to this incident.

    Jesus may be coming. But not to America for sure.
  3. I'm pretty sure this is because of the small market combined with the large potential for getting caught up in the US tort system. Apple could probably whip up an app to take care of it via Bluetooth through your wrist watch in a couple weeks.

    Is that a new genre of porn?
  5. The senate as selected is a very bad idea. The filibuster is a modification of that basic flaw that succeeds in making it even worse. Moscow Mitch is the most disingenuous politician of our time. Being a non American I did not vote in your poll.

    covid-19

    I seems that assorted flavours of deplorables are going to do all they can to make sure that Covid-19 remains endemic in the good old USA. https://www.mprnews.org/story/2021/03/15/gop-worries-threaten-virus-fight
  7. Once you admit that you have a problem you can begin the journey of dealing with it.
  8. It is entertainment for him. And as long as you are also being entertained it's all good. If you are trying to have an honest debate, not so much!
  9. You seem to be assuming he is seeking truth and knowledge. What will it take for you to stop banging your head against the wall?

    Making charcoal is one thing. Making it into briquettes and bagging it then warehousing and marketing it as "Royal Oak Charcoal" and getting a contract to supply it to Walmart is a little more work.The whole place is covered with a layer of black dust. https://www.google.ca/maps/@37.7207139,-91.513628,859m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en&authuser=0

    Something about the slenderness of the accusations.......

    Good charcoal comes from hardwood. Salem MO is where I pick it up. On the edge of the Mark Twain National Forest. A seriously beautiful drive on MO SR32 from the east.

    Yeah. Just girls complaining again. They probably were asking for it by wearing high heels and stuff.

    Driving a truck hauling wood pulp to a mill in SE Missouri, and charcoal back home. You put a lot of faith in anecdotal evidence for a man well acquainted with rigorous science.

    covid-19

    A local health authority near Toronto has ordered an Amazon DC to shut down to contain an outbreak there. Jeff Bezos in his capitalist wisdom is attempting an "appeal". Just like he thinks Canada is Texas. It reminds me of when he had Whole Foods try to ban poppy wearing on Remembrance Day. https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/amazon-facility-in-brampton-ordered-to-close-employees-self-isolate-over-covid-19-outbreak-202230983.html

    It is old enough to be in an age group with a death rate from Covid about 25 times higher than the 20 year old you like to think you still are.

    He is also Trumpy and watches FOX. I can only have so much influence. Especially as a furrener.

    I told him to think again and that he has friends and people who care about him. He said it was duly noted. I didn’t bother telling him he’s a moron, that seldom does any good.

    covid-19

    I have an old skydiving friend in North Dakota he is 70 years old. I asked him if he’s going to get vaccinated soon. He said no because he heard that a woman in Arizona died four days after getting vaccinated. I pointed out that half a million Americans have died from Covid. He told me the Hospitals just made up those numbers to get more funding.
  20. Yes, they learned so much that it’s no longer required!

    They are going to keep it in a big warehouse right beside the toilet paper. You can never have enough.

    At least history was made.
  23. Fan boys will be fan boys. As if Germans are somehow better than Belgians or Czechs!
