  1. Good movie!! I have the boxset VHS an the DVD Boxset!! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  2. Of course its not! Its to regulate the amount of O2 we absorb by osmosis through the skin. Jumping without one would increase the surface area of skin exposed to the high pressure winds and raise the O2 level in our bloodsteam. This cause cause hyperoxia which we all fear. I have got to start it again [rant] I was watching National Geographic a few months ago an there was a show on the Flying Peregrin Falcon an it's vidiot ect... good show very cool.. BUT! One of the questions they ask just before the show slips into a commercial was "Can a skydiver breath during freefall" my answer was "yes of cource we breath" {go get a beer knowing I'm right an hear in the other room} TV " No they can't {coming running from the kitchen with beer} the pressures from falling that fast keep their lungs from working so they abosorb all the o2 through their skin" I just looked at the TV with my mouth open in a silent gasp! Then I started screaming at the TV all kinds of explenatives "Whuffo Bast*rds" was one!! So anyways whuffos are a strange breed indeed.. an you would think National Geographic would have gotten it right!? Go figure. I even emailed NG the next day telling them of the error... never got a responce nothing nodda.. not even a sorry, oh your wrong, nothing!! Blah! I still have whuffo friends but they know now not to get me started on skydiving or I wont shutup so they just dont ask questions. Now the co-workers I haven't gotten trained yet! LOL working on them... "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  3. I got a 15.. *sigh* I got some work to do!! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

    Where's Nathan!

    *Steps up to take the Stalker position* I'm here for you TG Iffin you'll let me try to fill his shoes. Might even be fun since we live in the same city "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  5. I found this quote quite funny.. and as far as I can tell it's a real quote.. Nominated for quote of the year is the statement made by Texas Congressman Dick Armey when asked: "If you had been in President Clinton's place, would you have resigned?" Armey responded: "If I had been in the President's place I would not have gotten a chance to resign. I would be laying in a pool of my own blood, looking up and listening to Mrs. Armey saying, "How do I reload this damn thing?" "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  6. [schoolgirl giggle]*blush* I didn't think it showed.. [/schoolgirl giggle] "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  7. Ok time for another Number!! I'm starting the "Dumbass Skydiver Numbers" {No not Dumb Shit but it could fit} DS #0001
  8. Oh DUH! I wasn't using my email... Thanks Phree "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  9. Them thar are fighting words sun! See I knows englash I was edumacated at UT! GO HORNS!! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  10. Nothing wrong with playing EQ it's the people who play RPG's an won't admit it "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  11. I see I've gotten some helpful comments.. 2 I think an one woman who lost a man.. nacmac - I have completed Halo an Munch alooooonnnggg time ago Does no one play this game? "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  12. They can be on staff but I wasn't able to post my msg? Do I have to be a RB? LOL "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  13. WTF? I tried posting an got this: "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  14. Well I can't be at the DZ all the time.. I have been working about 60hrs a week an when I get some downtime during the week I enjoy some online entertainment. This has nothing to do with Skydiving it was meant as a way to find other EQ players among us skydivers. "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  15. Ok well the topic doesn't give much idea as to what I have gotten caught up in. To put it short. I've fallen back into an addiction I had broken about 2 years ago. It's called EVERQUEST there was a post here on the DZ Forums awhile back that got me to thinking about that evil game again. So I figured ok what the hell I'll reinstall it an play for free for awhile again. Just to see what it was that had me hooked for so long. I found some of the players I used to group with an hunt the baddies with were still around. I got caught up in the action an interaction between players an the thrill of knowing your only a few coppers from getting that badass nuker spell.... Help!! So if you play EQ {EverCrack} lemme know. I'm back on The Tribunal server as Bagoknen. Someone took my old name.. Come an say hi. I'll probably be playing more an more again because I'm starting to level up again an it's getting interesting. They've made alot of needed changes in the format an game play that I used to bitch about. Ok, now I got that off my chest.. Let's see who else is addicted to EQ as me.. C'mon I know there are some out here that are UberGeeks like me an play MMRPG's "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  16. Still a little young, your only 5 years older then me. I want to have many many fruitful years with an enslaved soul. I mean think of the things you could do with it!! Send it to your bankers house an scare him shittless! Even better, send it to terrorise those pesky bill collectors who call at all hours of the day an night! Or maybe to an ex's place to make her/his life miserable. So it has to have longevity for me to be buying a soul. Sorry I'm being so picky but you have to think about the mileage you'll get from it. Plus your price is a bit steep for me. "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  17. OOppps! I'm sorry meat, I got to her post an didn't get any farther I was mezzmerized by her beauty!! Please forgive.. "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  18. If your only 21 I'm not interested. You've got a chance to out live me an what am I going to do with a soul I can't enslave until you die? I mean I could burn in tomorrow.. {If I was an active skydiver that is} So I think I'll have to pass on this one. Now if any of you that are closer to death an older then me want to make some extra cash.. I might be interested "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  19. OMG!! I fell over when I read that letter! I've seen alot of "Little Johnnie" stuff but that one is classic! Oh an I have to start it.. your a very attractive young lady in that picture.. I suggest you hurry an change it before the wolves see it!! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  20. OMG!! I'm sooooooo pissed off! I just stumbled across this thread today!! 11-12-02 I missed it ALL!! I feel soooooooooooooo LAME now "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  21. Or you can save your pennys an just buy an 03` Stang.. stock 340hp Think about it.. "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  22. Ramon, the 03` is also an "iron block" it's not alluminium like yours. So think about that too. I think it is feasable to install the turbo as your asking. Also there is alot of info in this thread to think about too. Your taking a stock engine an going to ram fuel-air-mix down it's throat. Even at 6psi your going to have detonation problems. Retarding the timing might help but it's not the best fix. You'll have to look into a new intake, exaust ect.. an the rings are another thing to think about replacing. I know I'm just repeating what others have said. Also think about your warranty? If it's still good you might want to wait before you do all this work too. Also think about the tranny.. you'll be delivery more torque an hp's to it. .. sounds like a fun project. Good luck..

  23. After every flight, pilots complete a gripe sheet which conveys to the mechanics problems encountered with the aircraft during the flight that need repair or correction. The form is a piece of paper that the pilot completes, and then the mechanics read and correct the problem. They then respond in writing on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken and the pilot reviews the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor. Here are some actual logged maintenance complaints and problems, as submitted by QANTAS pilots, and the solution recorded by maintenance engineers. By the way, Quantas is the only major airline that has never had an accident. P = The problem logged by the pilot. S = The solution and action taken by the engineers. P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement. S: Almost replaced left inside main tire. P: Test flight OK, except autoland very rough. S: Autoland not installed on this aircraft. P: Something loose in cockpit. S: Something tightened in cockpit. P: Dead bugs on windshield. S: Live bugs on back-order. P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 fpm descent. S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground. P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear. S: Evidence removed. P: DME volume unbelievably loud. S: DME volume set to more believable level. P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick. S: That's what they're there for. P: IFF inoperative. S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode. P: Suspected crack in windshield. S: Suspect you're right. P: Number 3 engine missing. S: Engine found on right wing after brief search. P: Aircraft handles funny. S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious. P: Target radar hums. S: Reprogrammed target radar with words. P: Mouse in cockpit. S: Cat installed.

  24. I'm scared an I don't even know what it is I'm looking at. So explain.. What is all that? "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  25. WHOA!! I went outside an there is a SUN? the sky is still blue instead of that gray cloud-mass that's been hanging over SE Texas for about 6 weeks {it seems} There may be some jumping this weekend in my future!!
