By chance, did you forget the first law of Higher Edufucation? It's a totalitarian, dictatorial, oppressive regime. I'm convinced someone was thinking of Machiavelli when they designed Higher Edufucation. J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

Sigh.... I call Virgin! Remster a Virgin?????? It can't be, it just can't. Might my leg fell a tug? J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

That's so true...I worked for a very large company in Seattle, and I didn't make planes, but delivered the US Mail, interoffice mail and all the office supplies. Fastest way to load office supplies into a small pickup with canopy is standing on the ground, right outside the tailgate, and throwing all aforementioned supplies into different corners of pickup, depending on where it was going. Boxes of copy paper were not thrown, but I was pretty good at the shot put (modified form) after a while. Wonder what happens to small office supplies when boxes of copy paper land on them? I never found out. I did find out that bending at the waist, twisting and turning while lifting boxes of copy paper was sufficent motovation to use proper lifting techniques with boxes of paper. But it wasn't nearly as much fun... J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

1. Volunteer (shelter, domestic violence shelter, children's hospital, etc.) 2. Use your talents to help someone one on one--what can you do? (Fix a PC, help somebody move, help a senior with some task so they can stay in there home) 3. Listen to someone, really listen. Maybe somebody is depressed, and needs an ear (and maybe a question/suggestion to seek help.) What do you like to do? J

Do you have any buttons left on any remotes, or have you learned to keep all remotes button side down, when not in use? Or are buttons just a cockatiel snack? J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

Hope you have sent that care package, I mentioned it in my e-mail. J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground. -

LOL, That was great. Another good quote was " Dude if you want to cut it close thats fine, but were talking about a major malfunction here" I was wondering if it was major or mega? I think on the DVD I have, Truman says mega. Kind of fits in with his style. "A whole wash day shot to hell." At least I think that's what I recall Trellis saying. "He still has one good chute!"

Fill in the blanks, if you choose the last option. OK, I am neither admitting or denying that I have watched Fandango X times, but I think the part where front of the car is ripped off by the train is a recipe for problems, if I have anything in my mouth. The static line class, especially Truman's instructions, is pretty close to what any static line student needs to know, right? Jeff Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

Why thanks. Whatcha think now? J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

OK, now how do I make the pic suitable for uploading, it's 548kb at 72dpi, and true color? J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

I am amazed at the bunch of cute/beautifull/handsome kids I have seen in this thread. Guess I will post a couple of pics of my daughter, she is very special, as your's are to you. I happen to think she is smart, creative, and beautifull. Wish I could take all the credit but her Mom sure deserves some. First pic is with her latest S.O., her new puppy. Second is a few years ago at her favorite place, an island in the San Juans. A few weeks ago, we were at a 25th annivesary of my parents friends, and I hauled out my favorite spray can... and sprayed her good with the wolf repellent, to keep away the nasty wolves, daughter is happy it doesn't work on the more well behaved wolves... ...but for the marginal wolves, I use the tricks I learned from Uncle Buck J Arch?

Glad you had surgery. I know a couple of people with strabismus who did not have surgery. Wish I knew why they didn't have surgery...was it lack of money or what? A bit odd to make eye contact, where do you look? J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

I sold plasma when I was in school, and during one period in my life when I was dirt poor. Two regrets about the plasma sales, first one is the veins look like trash, I sometimes wonder if people think I have used drugs when they see my veins. Second, I couldn't donate blood or platelets while I was selling plasma. I think if you are going to sell plasma, you need to invest a certain percentage of the money for future comestic surgery on those veins, if the look of your veins matters to you. Lucky for me the phlebotomist/needle stickers at Red Cross don't have a problem with my veins. I hope that means the EMT's wouldn't have problems, but who knows. J Arch?

While the rocket motors are a nice touch, the nichrome wire will ignite fuse rather nicely. Fireworks, cherry bombs, anything with a fuse. And 120v will power the nichrome as well. All usual disclaimers apply, anything mentioned above can cause serious trouble, blah, blah, blah. J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

My instructors have observed that I flail way to much as a student. My instructors said my next jump will be from 18k. They are sure I will be able to figure out how to arch properly, or they will let me jump from 24k next time. They also mentioned O2, but then said I don't need it, since I don't smoke. I am concerned that I will be cold at 18k. Your comment on how cookies solve everything leaves me confused. Should I wear my down vest, down coat, polar fleece and my heavy gloves, or just eat a few cookies? Sincerly, Confused Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

Someone needs to kick the shit out of my ex for breaking my heart... I had better leave the shit kicking to someone else, perhaps Chuck Norris might be of assistance for this task. However, I would love to have a chat with the heart breaker regarding the need for long term mental therapy, proabaly involving multiple prescriptions. Perhaps ECT might even speed up the aforementined foolish person's mental recovery, especially if the ECT was administerd by the person who's heart was broken. Or would the ECT administered by the person with a broken heart cause irrepairable damage. Oh, who cares about the irrepairable damage, with sufficent ECT, the heart breaker wouldn't be able to break any more hearts. Sigh, so many platitudes running through my mind, but they aren't worth much. Instead, I offer > J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

We need some help finding an AUTISM SERVICE DOG. Any ideas?

Mind if I make a copy of you, particularly your red hair, and maybe add a few years, since I am almost a decade past being eligible for POP's. Sigh, red hair AND understands I can't mind read!!!! OH MY. J Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.
