    LMAO Never try to eat more than you can lift
  2. Fair enough - i take it your objection is in the treatment of the animals rather than the morals of eating animals per se? However being dragged out of the sea by your gills jammed into a net with hundreds of other fish to lie gasping for air on a deck until you can't breathe any more doesn't strike me as being much more humane than a trailer ride and a steel bolt to the neck.... (I know thats an over simplification but i always think this is a slightly strange argument) Never try to eat more than you can lift
  3. Sorry to jump on this - and i eat meat etc, but why should fish be any different to land animals. This strikes me as mixed morals? I have vegetarian friends who are venomously anti meat - and go fishing Never try to eat more than you can lift

    Agreed - i was on 18$ an hour as a barman in sydney. Mind you, on a good night i could earn $100 in tips as well..... Never try to eat more than you can lift
  6. FWIW, I studied a "sport" version of Aikido to a high level (called shodokan, decended from tomiki for those in the know) and i agree with the statement that any of the more "traditional" styles are a little too stylised to be of any real use, however the principles that are common to a lot and things such as timing and rhythm are very useful in all sorts of ways. Incidentally, i also trained in Capoeira for a couple of years and if you want something really FUN - and fairly spectacular.... Never try to eat more than you can lift

  9. From what i can make out, this is a distilled version of Myers Briggs - if you google Myers Briggs you can probably find a more complete test, and as they go, MB tends to be pretty good. (When I did the full licensed version and read my full profile, it described my relationships down to a T - was quite scary in fact, both good and bad points!!! ) Never try to eat more than you can lift
  10. As far as i can make out, they seem to change it almost every time i do a new ticket. Did NARS beach lifeguard last year and guess what, different again. (But i did learn how to use the defib machine!

  12. I am trying to find a full face that fits properly, and i am unsure about how they should sit. For example, with the Z1, is the idea to gte your chin at least flush with the chin guard or is it supposed to line up on your nose? I have seen people wearing it wither way, and to me, to leave your chin hanging out protected solely by the gasket seems illogical. (live long and prosper ) Has anyone got any pictures of how they wear theirs? similar idea on an oxygn or oxygn A3 i guess? thanks Dave Never try to eat more than you can lift

I don't think that should be Blasphemy - my wife and i had just finished dinner, and all i said was, "that piece of Halibut was good enough for Jehovah"! Never try to eat more than you can lift
  17. Its not an excuse but a friend of mine was doing well over 100mph on a turbocharged motorbike (big suzuki i think) a few years ago before you got locked up for that kind of thing, and when the fuzz finally caught up, the first thing the officer said was "having problems taking off, Wing Commander?"

    do we know who won the Madison yet? Never try to eat more than you can lift

    Good question. I was never much interested in how to judge expertly, but if the start values are all the same, the content of the routine is irrelevant - hence Kele01's point, its just down to the mistakes they make. Most of the time the judges themselves don't agree so its not that clear cut. A slightly offline body position here, an unpointed toe there, a bent arm.... I'd have to watch it again but i still don't know if i could split it. (gut feel would probably be Nemov but like i said, i just like the spectacular stuff) Never try to eat more than you can lift
