Do you do anything special when packing? I am consistently on-heading but vary between "slow and soft" and "fast and hard". (I want a "medium, soft, on-heading"). Thanks. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Others have talked about the inflationary results. I'll talk about liquidity. The billionaires out there didn't get rich by putting most of their fortune into savings accounts. Gate's selling half his stake in Microsoft, aside from panicking the investors, is pretty much impossible to accomplish. The size of his stake is too large. You can't sell half a mansion, either, and there isn't a market for half the super mansions out there. Selling is not donating, spending, etc... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

The same thing happened to me ... and I did get more value out of it.

First argument: Second argument: Although both arguments may be valid, I believe the first argument is better than the second argument. Thanks ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

So how many people from the Democratic Republic of the Congo can point out where the United States of America is? PS: How about when the Civil War of United States of America occurred? How about how many people died during the Civil War of United States of America? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Everyone repeat after me: I will be afraid, I will be very afraid, I will take prescription drugs to relieve being afraid, I will be afraid, I will be very afraid, I will take prescription drugs to relieve being afraid, I will be afraid, I will ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Just to add a little fuel to the fire ... ... and that is just America's leading plutocrats. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Do you believe that a single "regular" officer could prevent an attack by a terrorist or terrorists? (Talk about a false sense of security ... ) It is better than what we have now. Just an idea though. Unlike some I do not have all the answers. How is it better than what we have now at stopping a terrorist attack? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

No, they should not. Speech is not a crime, and it was speech, though ill-advised. ANY restraint or criminal prosecution for speech should be eliminated unless it DOES cause violence. (unfortunately, this seems to me to be a but/for cause of this, but not the PROXIMATE cause of the ultimate event) Terrorist threats are not protected by freedom of speech so when is something considered a terrorist threat and when is something considered speech?

Whatever it takes to get them to do their homework. Have you tried simulated drowning ... usually gets them to do their homework. PS: Do you really want to live in a world where there are armed officers at every school? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

If you want to track like your life depends on it ... go on a zoo tracking dive. (It didn't take me long to realize that I don't like zoo tracking dives.) "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

This is almost all I do, it is a blast! I'm currently working on maintaining a close proximity (while belly or back tracking) and eventually want to work on docking and formations. PS: You should talk with your coach or instructor because tracking (like every other discipline) has unique risks. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Dont you know... most of the Administration believes that they will already be RAPTURED OUT... so they will not have to pay anything back. All of the athiests and non-true believers who are LEFT BEHIND will have to pay at least while the Anti-Christ is running things till Armegeddon happens. Hey, they may be right, with the way they are spending they may not bring about the rapture but they may bring about the apocalypse. Eventually someone will want the U.S.A. to pay them back but how will they make the U.S.A. pay them back ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Wow, the Neo-Conservatives in the U.S.A. must be trying to conserve a very expensive way of life. How long will it last? PS: I'm not a Neo-Conservative but I would like a cite for it ... or would you prefer I just believe everything I read on the internet? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

I stare out the window, think what the altitude is, check altimeter, think what the altitude is, check altimeter, think what the altitude is, ... you get the drift. Edit: I also check my handles and straps before I board the plane, after I board the plane, and before I jump. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

I thought you did ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Jesse Jackson (along with many other people) can't distinquish "color" from "culture" ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Generally if you have a system offering something for nothing without any checks or balances people will abuse it ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

But is "what you think" the same as "what you can prove". "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Tell those people to visit the rest of the world. The places that don't have doctors (or enough doctors), hospitals, etc... (maybe then they will stop being so pessimistic and start being more optimistic). Once again ... How can the U.S.A. do better? To start, by citizens asking not what their country can do for them but asking what they can do for their country. How many resources are wasted because people don't eat healthy, exercise, etc...? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Republicans often call themselves Conservative but more often than not the only thing Republicans are Conservative about is their way of life which makes them Neo-Conservatives, not Conservatives. Democrates want more of my money to spend. Republicans want more of my money to spend. Damn it, I want more of my money to spend. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Bitch and complain but when push comes to shove ... the U.S.A. treats its least fortunate citizens (and non-citizens) well compared to the rest of the world. More people are arriving than departing for a reason. Can the U.S.A. do better? Yes. How can the U.S.A. do better? To start, by citizens asking not what their country can do for them but asking what they can do for their country. How many resources are wasted because people don't eat healthy, exercise, etc...? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Sure it does ... except for the fact that the "irresponsible" people who did not have car insurance before remain "irresponsible" people who do not have car insurance now and the "responsible" people who did have car insurance before remain "responsible" people who do have car insurace now with the difference being that both the "irresponsible" and "responsible" people are required to have car insurance now. Why require something you can't (and won't) enforce? If you can (and will) enforce it, what is the punishment? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

I have been told ... And asked ... By people who believe that re-distributing little green pieces of paper will cure poverty. This whole thread was to get the opinions of others (to help me make my opinion). My current opinion is that re-distributing little green pieces of paper may decrease poverty in the short term but will increase poverty in the long term and thus it is not the answer to curing poverty.
