    Grouchy!

    I'm weird. No apologies. Here I thought I was the only one in the world warped enough to make that connection. Glad I have company. What I always wondered was whether God gave Moses that Popeye "Gah-gah-gah-gah-gah!!!" laugh right after he said it. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  2. C'mon gang! No one here has gotten pissed at their folks for making them mow the lawn, paint the house, etc. etc.? Did I call them names when talking to my friends? Yep. Did I grumble? Yep. Did I do what they asked me to anyway? Yep. I just got the impression that he was venting. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool

  4. Nice pics! Very nice track! -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  5. Just let me know when you're here & we'll play! Assuming the rain stops. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  6. We use SSH a lot. AFAIK, the main diff is security. For moving files, use SCP. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  7. If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle; if the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle; if the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.

  8. I've worn contacts under my goggles, but I hate contacts so now I just wear my glasses in my Z1. Only problem I've had with glasses is that they fog up right when I get under canopy so I need to flip up my visor. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  9. I dunno. I was talking about ducks. But now that I look at the keyboard, 'd' is right next to 'f'. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  10. A duck's quack doesn't echo. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  11. I installed the latest version of SUSE and love it. I can bring the discs by the DZ next time I'm out if you wanna borrow/burn 'em. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  12. That sounds like a challenge! I laugh at you! Hahahahahaha!!! Besides a dz.com chat server sounds like we need a dz.com deathmatch server as well! Fragalicious! -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool

    4 Days...

    Luck? Luck? You don' need no steenkin' luck! You'll do just fine and have a great time! And we all expect a full report when you get back! But, hey, if you're superstitious... good luck, bonne chance, buena suerte, buoa fortuna, break a leg... Oh wait. Nevermind that last one. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit.

  14. I like it! LOL! But...um...Tee... you don't have one of those. Or is there something you aren't telling us? -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  15. Is Q4 different from Return To Castle Wolfenstein? I thought they were the same. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  16. I forgot to mention Return to Castle Wolfenstein as another reason. As far as Doom 3 goes, the preview pics are mind-blowing. There are screenshots here & here. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  17. Well I had a Voodoo 3 on an AMD 600. Lasted me about 2 years, which is pretty darn good, but it just couldn't keep up anymore, so it was upgrade time for me. I'll prolly upgrade the MB/CPU next since I eventually want to have a dedicated box for my webserver & then the "hot" box for my day to day stuff. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit.

    Legal BASE

    I don't think anybody has ever been convicted of "BASE jumping" per se. Not even in the national parks (there it's "air delivery", believe it or not). As Snowflake mentioned, it's usually breaking & entering, trespassing and/or reckless endangerment. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool

    Legal BASE

    No you're right. My bad. "S" is for bridge (i.e. Spans). -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  20. Heh. You get that too eh? One of the guys with 600+ jumps held the "slow packer" title until I took over. I've settled into a routine. It's just that that routine takes about 1/2 hour to complete. And to be honest, I can't think of a spot in it where I can cut some time. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit.

    Legal BASE

    Yeah those were the two I was kinda thinking of that would be hard... especially A. You got the B covered with Bridge Day. I think there are some legal cliff jumps in Utah (could be wrong) so that's E. The trick with B & A would be persuading the owners that they wouldn't get sued if you bounced. I'm not sure any sort of waiver would be sufficient in today's legal climate. As far as the getting caught bit goes. I do have a record from stupid stuff I did in college. Whether I'd get a break because of the time is a different matter (I can't control my race, so I'm going to leave that aspect alone) but I really can't chance it. I've even thought about low-altitude-quasi-BASE jumps from a balloon (be too afraid of the prop wash on a heli). I dunno. Guess I'll have to settle for Bridge Day and dream about Kuala Lumpur and Angel Falls. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool

    Legal BASE

    I thought about posting this over at the BASE Board, but they can be a little touchy over there, so I'll just toss this out for discussion here. Does anyone know of anyone who has gotten the acronym legally? This would seem especially hard in the US, but someone has to have done this. Are there any BASE jumpers out there who only do legal jumps? I'm not trying to disparage those who haven't. I just know if I were to BASE jump (*AHEM*) I would pretty much have to limit myself to legal jumps to keep my marriage intact. So I'm just wondering if it's do-able. -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
  23. Bravo! Like I said when you were going through your rough times in training... this is what made all that effort worthwhile! You have your wings! Congrats. Now fly & be free!
  24. Congrats! Now the fun begins! -------- Zennie "I know the pieces fit. 'Cause I watched them fall away..." --Tool
