  1. I'll bite: What was the cause?
  2. In some cases, yes. In some cases it makes sense for society to do that. I assume you still jump with a reserve parachute. strange example to use. Did you mean to suggest that everyone should carry a second pistol for backup? Not at all, just a second magazine.
  3. I didn't read any of the other posts, intentionally. They may have good advice, but my first instinct is that you're desperate to sell, which makes a "fair deal" nearly impossible, especially in today's market...but never mind me. Not at all. She's been talking about selling them for 6 years and just hasn't gotten around to it.
  4. Excellent advice. Thanks everyone.
  5. I'm going to help my Wife's Mom sell her coin collection. Selling it one coin at a time on E-Bay would not be very practical for reasons of time plus we don't have the expertise to describe the coins' conditions. That leaves taking it to a dealer. How do you go about that and make sure you get a fair deal?
  6. Downsizing is not a requirement. There are many advantages to jumping a larger canopy. There's no reason you can't jump a student sized canopy the rest of your jumping life.
  7. Wow! OK, what about Diesel Punk?

    Which car?

    lol most ford cars ARE european or asian cars now. You're right. The cool little delivery van, the Transit Connect, is made in Turkey. I think the Fiesta is made in Mexico. Ford makes good cars, none the less.
  9. I was just hoping you would share your knowledge, which you did, so thanks!

    Which car?

    I love European cars, but for your purposes, they might not be the best choice. Any small Japanese car or a Ford would be good.
  11. Or, you call the still-in-business factory, and order a new set of legstrap pads. . I did that. It was so cheap it was practically free.
  12. Agreed. You can lawyer up all you want, but the place is being sold. Don't waste your money.
  13. The quality of their products is good. I have several of their items.
  14. Did not catch this earlier. A headhunter probably won't talk to you if you are wanting to change careers.
  15. Nonsense. Nobody gets paid for having resumes on file. They get paid for placing people in jobs.
  16. I used to be a head hunter. Try this: Ask your colleagues for the names of any that they have used. Tell your colleagues to feel free to give them your name when they talk to one. If there are any Linked In groups specific to your industry that you can join, you can post the same question there.
  17. Nice windows!! I worked for the manufacturer that made those windows. In fact, I was the manufacturer's project manager for that job.
  18. Troublemaker. Now he has something else to worry about. Well, that protractor he's carrying with him could also be a problem. Don't forget the plumb bob
  19. Tell them to get lost and go have fun.
  20. No way!! I thought it was talk radio.
