Sure it could be, but I doubt that. Kerry has a propensity for going after rich women. But don't let history and the facts get in your way. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Had a sabre in the first combination....great looking canopy. Flip a coin, just pack it nicely and fly it safe. Congrats and blue skies! No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Nice recycle. I'd say not to pick on spouses, but Kerry's is a sincere piece of work. I'd call him a gold digger, but she must be getting something out of the deal as well. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Okay, the 19-35 shoots about 24mm max. A fixed focal lengh (say 24 or 28) would be a much more useable lens for FF. I wouldn't kill yourself over it. Just get some gaff tape and lock it in wide. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Cans? They sell Moosehead in cans? How heinous is that? No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Click for Cara's skydive news story. Click here if you have bandwidth to spare. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

You bet! The Geneva convention is clear. If you aren't a uniformed combatant, then you aren't a legal combatant. Therefore, you are NOT COVERED BY THE GENEVA CONVENTION. Read it, you might learn something. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Hey, war crimes have no statute of limitations. He wasn't a kid, he was a man and a military officer who admitted to war crimes. What attrocities are Bush and Rumsfeld committing? They are fighting a war and keeping the Genevia Convention in tact while doing it. Even with Abu Gra, they are proscecuting the offenders. Just because we don't agree with your drivel doesn't mean we don't understand. What is even funnier is that the fact that Bush will win in Nov. I love America!

The fact that the Johnson administration ran the war from the Oval office and modified the ROE daily isn't the issue (though you are trying to distract from the main point.) I defy you or anyone else to come up with the legitimate directive that allowed US Service Personnel to use mounted 50-Cal weapons as an anti-personnel weapon. YOU CAN'T. Now, if you were to stay on the subject about Kerry, I'm really interested in how you can justify what he has done directly. These aren't the republican words or tactics...these are Kerry's own. It's a losing argument....but it's really fun to watch you try. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

That is a crock of shit, Kev. As a military officer with more than 21 years of service (and counting), the first thing that happens when you get in to a situation like that is to go over the ROE (rules of engagement.) For 50 cal weapons, the rules have been well known to both enlisted and officers since the beginning of Vietnam. To say that he didn't know is admitting dereliction of duty, plain and simple. Frankly I don't care if he is lying or not, he is on both sides of these issues in Nam, and he is wrong on both accounts. I think the point is that a guy who admits war crimes and admits dereliction of duty, and then touts the fact that he earned a Silver Star, Bronze Star, and three Purple Hearts doing it somehow qualifies him to be President. HELLO? Politics aside, can't both sides see the irony in this? No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

There will be soon. I'll pull a digital rip of it and host it (or post it.) No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Within 4 years you'll seem some solid state 200GB technology that will be within a decent price range. Problem is it probably won't interface with any of our gear now. Nothing wrong with digital tape yet. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

I contacted my insurance company and put a small rider on my homeowner's policy. Mine covers theft, damage and loss. I was surprised at how cheap it was (even including my camera gear.) Of course, I've yet to make a claim. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Worst thing about it is that this guy is a product of his own choice. Chances are this isn't the only thing she has been hiding. I'll wager something else...they will end up getting married. For some reason, people tend to follow through on bad choices (buyers remorse fixed by affirming the decision.) If he doesn't dump her, they deserve one another.

Pretty big just when you think of a Tomcat's takeoff speed. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Is that accurate? I haven't seen them yet, and I've heard and read that Kerry refuses to release them. I've love a link. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Okay, don't do drugs. Here is why. You wouldn't have to rig any US figher for an ejection. They come with all the gear. That particular bird has a pair of twin 30-mm shells that will send you on your way. Now if you make it past the canopy that came off, no, and remembered to keep your arms and knees in tight, you may just have enough appendages to deal with your single harness system. If it isn't on fire, you can then ride your round down to the ground with a substantial thump. Even at stall speed (141kts) the exit would be pretty ballistic. I've done 200 mph exits from Casas....fun but nerve wracking. Oh, btw, military aviators are alllowed only 2 performance ejections before they are permanently grounded. They have too many vertebrate compression injuries from the first two. One final though....the cost of a ejection is no minor thing. I'm sure the canopy of an F-14 alone goes well in to 5 figures.

Sure it does. It proves that the media isn't interested in the obvious question. It also proves that of all the reporters that either will talk with, they all seem to be of the same ilk. Hey, why not just let the facts of the medal citations speak for themselves. Release them all and prove the Switf Boat Vets wrong? Why not? The answer is obvious to me. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Well, I'm ready for them to bring both records out, and let them stand on their own. I have no doubt which one will be taking the oath in January. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

That could be the problem...or the GOP might also realize that it isn't a good idea to change the subject when your opponent is causing more harm to himself than you could ever do. When the Republican convention is over, and the real race begins, Kerry's record will be brought out in public. But, it won't sway those who have already decided. It will however influence others. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Sure you did, you said... So your premise is that the medal issue is turning out to be a flop. The exact opposite is true, regardless of the polling (just do an AP search and see the number of articles written. The whole article you refer to is a sham. The title "Bush Criticizes Anti-Kerry Television Ad" is misleading on it's foundation. I heard the entire interview front to back. The reporter asked the question of that particular ad (Swift Boat), and the President replied that he thought all 527 funding was wrong and it all should stop since it broke the spirit and intent of McCain-Feingold. This isn't expressed well in the article. If it's such a flop as a campaign issue, why is every major news media outlet running a story backed up by a poll? Medals are not awarded by popular opinion. There are very explicit grounds for awarding Purple Hearts, Bonze and Silver Stars. Kerry could end all the debate on this subject by simply releasing copies of the exact citations for his Silver and Bronze Stars, as well as his three Purple Hearts. Yet he explicitely refuses to do so, and continues to demean his fellow shipmates during his campaign stops. Therefore, the Swift Boat vets are simply responding in the best way they can...by running these ads and by publishing a book (#1 again on Amazon.com.) It's funny how a $150,000 ad has the press up at arms, running polls and such. However, they fail to even mention the $27,000,000 that George Soros has pumped in to MoveOn.org. And this organization has direct, admitted ties to the Kerry Campaign. Funny how the press isn't doing a story on that. Bottom line is, the press is trying to talk the American people out of the Kerry medal/Swift Boat controversy. Kerry started it, and could end it but refuses to do so. By him revealing the citations to his medals, he will show what they were truly given for and open himself up to so much more crap than he is already experiencing. But, this is all my opinion. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make. Kerry says he earned them and the public believes he did by a HUGE margin therefore anyone trying to discount them is the one at risk, not Kerry. The point I'm trying to make is that your premise about the medals is wishful thinking. It's manufactured news (polling). It doesn't mean anything. Kerry is being damaged by leading with his Vietnam record and getting angry at the Swift Boat Vets for making an issue of it (when he is the one who is constantly bringing it up.) If you think that polling truly reflects how the final results of the election will be that is your choice. Manufactured polls are used by the media to try to form rather than reflect public opinion... it's a dirty little secret that is biting Kerry hard. When the campaign gets to his record in the senate, then he'll really be in deep doodoo. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

Wishful thinking. Consider the source. Kerry is making this more of an issue by leading with it. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!

A place to jump near Simbach Germany ?
jazzjumper replied to Auryn's topic in Events & Places to Jump
I think you might mean Sembach AB, and yeah, the links the other guy gave you are good for jumping. They have a few english speakers at each site. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit! -
Advice on learning to PRO pack - Safire 2 into a Wings
jazzjumper replied to lintern's topic in Gear and Rigging
I have a wings and my first canopy on it was a Safire 149 (similar to your Safire 2 145). New ZPs are pretty slippery, so the bottom line is practice. Marking the lines with a laundry marker won't hurt anything, but be careful and enusre you are marking the proper ones. Maybe if you pulled the slider up and over your shoulder while flaking you could see the line sets and folds better (what I do.) There is also a good video out there called "Pack like a Pro." It's worth the 25 USD, and I've loaned mine to many friends to help them get better packing. Pack it during the week at your house, the more the better. You'll get where you can dominate the canopy and get it in the bag nicely. No matter how good she looks, someone, somewhere is sick of her shit!
