  1. LOL, now you know what I feel like when they make me work around here
  2. quite a few people I work with have done a couple of jumps or at least one tandem. None of them are licensed skydivers though. I still don't understand how you can jump only once or twice
  3. Same here!!!!!!!!!! Jack, did you get my cheque in the mail yet?
  4. Hey Sunny One, get well soon, but a fiesty booze hag like you will be back in no time!!!!!!!!!
  5. Hotdiggitydamn, any question can get answered on dropzone.com
  6. Ok, I am actually going to try and ask a serious question after reading this. In the english language, is there a different word for these two (slightly) different animals? I am asking because I know that in at least one other language there is.

    skyday

    have a great SkyDay!!!!
  8. Yikes, I agree with the sunny one
  9. I got an Infinity second had and absolutely love it
  10. I am not sure I agree with this. nationalism tends to rise when a country is under siege or under attack, perceived or actual. Look at the spike in nationalism in the US after September 11th, 2001. I am sure that in that case it has nothing to do with a language issue. Countries with multiple languages can be quite successful. Switserland has 4 official languages, Canada has two, China has a multitude, Belgium has two and I am sure there are more. And contrary to polular belief, canadian french is not only spoken in Quebec. As for your comment on wasteing tax payers money. USA today (http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2003-05-13-obesity-usat_x.htm) reported that the cost of overweight people to the healthcare system is $93 billion. Half of that is paid by tax payers! 65% of the American population is overweight. I think that McDonalds is a bigger problem for the USA than a couple of interpreters.
  11. well, my last name is Deknatel. (laughing at all the people trying to pronounce that sitting behind their computers)
  12. have a great birthday Lolie.
  13. Well, you have peaked my interest. Care to explain the difference?

  18. Maybe lt can get that one? Well a new one was a little too much money wasn't it?
  19. Keep dropping it, maybe it will scare the raccoon away.
  20. very cool, too bad I had to listen to that idiot Zalm right after though
  21. really, please do explain then.
  22. Actually they are fun to drive in. For those who don't know, 2 cv stands for deux chevaux, also known as 2 hp, yup a car with only 2 hp. The whole roof of the car was fabric that you could roll back. The suspension was so loose, you could almost get the car frame horizontal without any tires leaving the surface. Ohhh fond memories, well at least when the car started in the morning and we did not have to take public transportation. See the attachment
