You can say that again......TWICE

and add Greece in there. But definitely get to the islands. Island life is pretty special. Unfortunately, the only DZ is in Thessaloniki. Not exactly close to anything. Again, if you really want to experience that greek hospitality, get to the Islands: Tinos, Mykonos, Paros, and ESPECIALLY Santorini.

"If doofus' house sold for $650,000, mine must be worth $700,000!". This doesn't take into consideration the fact that doofus might have lied about what he sold his house for, or what comps he offered. Right on all accounts. Or, the worse offenders are people who "buy the listing" by promising unrealistic promises about what the home will sell for. This almost always ends up losing money for both client and realtor because the longer a home is on the market, the less chance it has of getting sold for anywhere near its asking price. Absofriginlutely, interview at least three realtors. The first interview should be about SERVICE, and NOT pricing. The MARKET dictates price. Get them to tell you what they will do for you. How will they market your home (MLS, broker's open house, advertising, phone calls, just listed cards...etc etc etc). Only after you decide on a realtor and are satisfied with what they have to offer should you talk about price. (in my opinion)

Quote You should sell real estate. if you are going to work that hard. I think if you become a waitress, then every job after that will seem easier. the best training for real estate was waiting on tables. Think of it as waiting on one table for 1 to 24 weeks...and you get REALLY close to people. It is a crazy business, but it can be pretty fulfilling. PM if you want advice about either biz.

I didn't say with ME! sheesh....! We can talk about head, oral on the rag, anal, and god knows what else, but not phone? Btw, I find it extremely interesting that "proportionally" speaking, more woman are into "phone" than men. I never would have guessed that.

If you go into a FSBO situation without an agent the owner can give you the commision which they would have paid to a buyer's agent. You can take that as a price reduction, to offset the down payment, to roll upgrades into your mortgage, etc. Sure, if you want to be relegated to FSBOs. And you are dreaming if you think someone will throw away that X% if a realtor isn't involved. They could always say, "oh, we always stipulated that buyer's with agents would have to cover their agent's commission. We'll definately buy our next property without an agent. If you don't go with an agent and buy a home that is NOT a FSBO, who is going to advocate on your behalf? You think their agent (who will get both side of the commission) will have your best interests at heart? now, that said........PM and I will help you FOR FREE.

[ Not in my experience. I just sold my own house this summer. Glad it worked out like that. That said, you are, without question, an exception to the rule. Realtors are invloved in 89% of the transactions nationwide. Finally, markets differ as well. Where I live is now a buyer's market, unlike mar, apr, may, june...etc.

Seeing that there really aren't enough sex polls lately.... Do partake and or enjoy phone sex? Is it a good substitute when partner is away, or do you enjoy on its own merits? Best phone sex was with a woman that I met online. She swore she hated phone sex and that we were just going to talk. 3 hours later she confessed that she had been doing the "two finger tango" for 10 minutes and wondered whether I was going to get in the game. M-A-N that was HOT!

QuoteSorry in advance...I couldn't resist. God how I wish you would have. No offense.

Do you prefer blowjobs over sex? Sometimes one is a precursor to the other. Other times, and this is hot, it gets hot and heavy when there is a heightened sense of intensity and desire to make someone cum orally. I think head can be much more intimate than intercourse depending on person and context. And as far as swallowing goes, I much prefer my partner to make her hand blur so we can both watch the fruit of her labor. sheesh....I am really mental. Oh, and horny. Gee, thanks.

I am selling a beautiful home right now, that unfortunately, came on the market at the worst time of the year........after they tried to sell it on their own for 3 months. They probably lost 15k AND are carrying two mortgages until it sells. Not only did they overprice it, they didn't know how to market th home, stage it, or pretty much anything else. But, selling and buying homes is easy once you get the pricing, marketing, liability, and financial stuff down...it's no big woop. I mean, it is only most people's biggest and most important investment. By all means do NOT use a professional, "handle it on your own". THAT SAID....I will be the first to admit that there are unscrupulous people out there who could really care less about people and their situations. That, my friends, is a shame.

I should mention that Skydiving Magazine store has always been excellent. Things are dispatched quickly, arrive in good condition, and I've never had a problem. Ditto.....

good food : early harvest olive oil, cheese soaked in burgundy, any sort of artery hardening pate', good bread wine: RED to be exact, and boutique winery champagne. Oh, and I like vodka, gin, and tequila. Did I mention port? Ok, ok, ok...and don't forget about cognac. Alright, stop with the brow-beating; so I drink copious amounts of beer. So what's your point? .........and traveling

QuoteYes, I did the 100. Yay! B-E-E-R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DEFINITELY a valuable lesson to learn, especially at 11k and not 2.5k. I remember my first trip away from my home DZ to Z-Hills, I was surprised not everybody asked for a pin check. I didn't hesitate give someone a tap and point. Well done on response and especially cool that you got back in the saddle again. When you get your next rig, with that smaller, snazzy ZP main.....invest in a higher WLoaded reserve, preferably PD. You will make it back AND have a soft landing! oh-yeah.....B-E-E-R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...Not that there's anything WRONG with that! giddy-up!

I have to admit, I got it bad for one person. Tall, pretty, cool, great smile, and talented as hell! (and did I say see is relatively close? And no, I do NOT look at her photo more than, say, a few times a day (now) on her DZs website. I, I, feel so DIRTY!

17. Do you snore, drool, kick, or pee in your sleep? Yes/No, but i do like to wake up my guy with a blowjob Now that is just "dirty pool". What other girl even stands a chance?

My friend says "never bring a sack lunch to a smorgasbord" DOH!

Quoteim pretty sure she was saying that keanu is as bad as diane keaton is good... I think they BOTH have reall small ranges, granted Keanu's is much smaller. i.e. the whole reason the Mtrix works is because they tap into this vacuous quality he has. And Diane Keaton, pu-leeze.....like she is Meryl, Kate W, or even Glen Close. All these actors are brilliant and courageous about playing sometimes unlikeable characters. What has Diane Keaton done that has been worth a shit since Annie Hall? (and even then, I think there is an argument there that it is "Keanu" like. Be honest and think about it....

STEWEY rulz that show, which is of course, already brilliant. I love it when he accidently kills his POSSIBLE future brother in the Fantastic Voyage spoof.

[ Was this post directed at me or genitor? My bad, sorry. I was thanking you for saying "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar" and expressing disappointment that Deathplay was turning, what I think at least, to be a heartfelt and generous response to what he is witnessing in our sport. We can, and have, debated RSLs or not, RSLs vs. Skyhooks, ad nauseum. How people have to go in while we split hairs? OF COURSE training and warding of complacency are at the foundation of this pyramid, as it always should. But we are an imperfect species in a unforgiving sport. That math I can even understand. Yeah, skyhooks are standard (as oppossed to free) on Sigmas and student rigs, as they should be. But with experienced gear we have, and you will excuse the expression, "the dignity of choice". After all, if the Skyhook was mandatory, somebody would bitch. I am not saying they shouldn't as much as I pointing out the fact that you can't please everybody all the time. Finally *exhales*, between R & D and inherent liabilities, RWS or anybody shouldn't have to give anything away. While I currently own a Vector, I have owned a Racer and Talon (this is my second go around in this sport), I didn't want people to think this post was about "my gear is the best, etc.

Do you feel qualified to edit a post put up by Bill Booth. He just might have meant "Skyhook". THANK YOU. He is has been so generous with his time, expertise, and experiences on this board. (don't get me started with what has contributed to our sport) I for one have learned a lot. W-E-A-K.....
