I took about 6 months down time for school reasons, now every jump I do is fucking amaizing! Down time is not a bad thing if you need/want it. |>.

Isn't Mr. Cowden married? |>.

You could be living in Baghdad. I'll show you "normal." If it weren't for all the fucking dust, I'd say "ya voll!" |>.

I dunno if a helo jump would be acceptable |>.

Wow, that has got to be the biggest waste of dead shit(gas) that I have ever seen! Edit:: referring to the pictures of the flames out the ass pickup truck. |>.

I don't have any kids so can just imagine how cool it must be to get one of them to jump. big CONGRATZ to you.

Ya voll! BTW, gratz eric, we're glad you two are finally shacked up double edit:: haven't been able to spell since beer thirty... |>.

My brother, also a skydiver, of 650ish jumps had a gate fall on him. Who the fuck has a gate fall on him? Only a skydiver... |>.

Depends what you're doing with it Q: If you could do one thing that had absolutely no consequences, what would it be? Steal a fighter jet and dissapear for a month. Q: Why is it that truth is believed less often than lies? |>.

Me, with a baboon. Q. Why do I still feel inclined to work even though my boss left an hour ago? |>.

I think the look on her face is almost as amusing as her breastice |>.

95% of them want to fuck you. Sorry, it's fact. I sure as heck hope not!!!! Many of them post on here...... maybe they will speak up! Can't anyone just have friends these days???? Well, be friends, absolutely, but most men who are good friends with women would like to have sex with them. Doesn't mean that's why thier friends with you, although if they're single it's likely, just means that it's how men work. |>.

I'd shoot all the lazy cunts who sit on their ass all day and tell us to mind the gap. Q: If you were in the himalayas, and a shirpa asked you if you were fagged out in a british accent, what would you answer? |>.

Congratz, here's a pie! |>.

I'm sorry, is there another answer to that question? |>.

No. |>.

I finished my last final at 6, my summer started today, and hell yeah, so did my weekend. |>.

If you make it a date, it's a date. Or your friend, or whomever was asked out. If you don't make it a date, then yer doomed to being just friends. Gotta break that barrier. Course, if you make it a date, you/he/it might not be asked on a second date, but that's the dice. |>.

I have a lvl 56 hunter on Thunderlord. I've been in WoW since the first beta push. I love that it's something that I can play with my limited and scattered play time and still be effective at it. If we get a DZ.com guild going, I'll be sure to stop by. |>.

Dropdeded, You don't need to be in excellent shape to start a martial art. In fact, that's one of the large benefits is that it's a great work out. If you're looking for a balance between mental/spiritual/physical, you'll find that the mix varies even in the same style from school to school. You're probably better off figuring out if you prefer a hard style(blocking, punching, kicking, structured setup), a soft style(similar to hard style, but with more flowing movements, etc.), or a grappling style(judo, jiu jutsu, etc.). Hard styles include, most forms of Karate, Tae Kwon Doe, and other similar forms. Soft styles include kung fu, tai chi and other similar styles. Grappling, as said above are styles similar to judo, jiu jutsu, and I think Aikido fits somewhere in between grappling and soft style. My advice is, do a radius search for an acceptable distance, and go watch a class in some of the local schools. If you see one that interests you, take a few classes to see if it's for you. Beyond that, there's almost no way to tell. Edit: Regarding your comment about senseless violence, any martial art worth it's "salt" makes people less violent, not more. Something to look for when scoping out schools is the attitude of the students as well as the teacher. |>.

NewGuy has some really good points. If it's not fun for you, and it's not convenient for you, it probably won't continue for you. So, pick something you enjoy immensely, wether it's fencing or cage fighting. |>.

True but those people are going to hurt people anyway regardless of weather or not they know martial arts. They are the assholes of the world and they are every where Yes, but I would prefer not to learn from, and spar with them in a fighting system where lack of control can easily permanently cripple me. That's all I'm saying. |>.

One of the only problems I have with Jiu Jutsu is this. The fact that it is so effective tends to overshadow everything else, and in my experience it attracts people who are very interested in learning how to hurt people. Either in the ring or in the classroom. In addition to this, the control taught to students, in my experience is lacking. Who cares if you can defend yourself it you're permanently crippled in the process of learning? Kind of defeats the purpose. If you choose jiu justu, be very careful about the school you choose and the instructor you learn from. Carefully investigate your options and be sure that you're comfortable with the level of instruction and control present in the school you choose. |>.
