    By tuck, I do mean a reverse arch. Sort of a reverse arch while diving out of the door. And I kind of feel like I do it to get out of the plane faster to avoid the wind.

    Ecard scams?

    piratemike replied to base283's topic in The Bonfire

    Nope, I don't know what the scam is. Although stydying some of these they appear to be a .exe download that infects your computer for some unknown purpose. They seem to be a good 4-6% of the spam going through my servers ATM.

    yup. A few of my favorites are down right now also. No craigslist right now. Bummer.

    We do hop-n-pops out of our king air a lot, the pilot doesn't put down the flaps, and sometimes doesn't even level off all that much. You just tuck and go out, no jumping up, it's never been a problem. I've seen two videos of stalls in king airs. They both involved people on the back seats. Don't sit back there, during climb or exit. During climb the plane climbs more efficiently with the weight farther forward, during exit, given a very specific turn of events you can contribute heavily to the stall sitting back there.

    Ha! one guy in the comments list if saying that P.E.T.I. is going to come down on them! Great!

    So... The skydiving is great and all, and it's something that does smooth out my life. I stay because of the people that are at the dropzone. The friendships are better than any drug.

    I have no idea. I suppose that oung girls looking for sexual girl power following these sorts of things might be fine, but it would probably be better for you and the world to ignore this whole issue all together.

    Kegerator help

    piratemike replied to ifall's topic in The Bonfire

    Just like what AggieDave said, 10 psi is to hgh. I tend to run my kegerator at about 7 psi, and slightly lower than that when I have guests. If the pressure is lower, guests are less likley to have the tap less than 100% open. So it prevents people from geting a huge head of foam. Anyhow, if the keg is new, and has warmed up some it may be kind of difficult for you to get the pressure down, after you change the pressure on the regulator, it might be a pint or three to get the pressure down. And sierra is okay. My favorites in the keg are pyramid heff, or moose drool.

    I would be living in Canada now if it wasn't so cold there so I could jump year round. I love that place every time I go. Well everywhere but Quebec.

    0 : 8 : 1 It was a good weekend. A bit windy, but I wasn't goign to let that stop me.

    no. if your going to test it to see what it is, you should not add water, then use a urine test kit. Most urine drug test kits to not simplly look for the drug in the urine, they look for byproducts. Putting the test in a dilution of the drug itself will give a false-negitive. There are kits you can use on the drug itself, like these: http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/kt202.html http://www.eztest.com/web/index.php Krisanne, I wouldn't goto the cops on this one, the laws reguarding drugs like cocaine are way unreasonable(and a lot are 0 tolorance), and you might find yourself having to deal with the lunicy of the system. If it was me, I'd probably get some of those test kits, if they all come up false, probably check the ph of it, if it's not realLy scarry, do some other testing. The likelihood that it's any "bio-agent" is almost 0%, terrorists aren't after you. Anyhow, I hope we get to find out what it is at some point. If it does turn out to be coke, get rid of it.

    Okay, So, considering that, the ti-83 will do everything you need nicely. The main advantage to the ti-86 that I can think of is that more people areound you will know howto use it. Therefore, you'll have more help with using the 86. So, even though it's more calculator than you need, go for it.

    I quite like my TI-92 that I have here. They are a bit large though. They do most everything, including graphing of 3d functions. They aren't to expensive: http://tinyurl.com/3x6uq9

    What's wrong with being on the David Dasselhoff fan club email list?

    You ever listen to that radio show love line? They have this segment called "germany or florida" It entails someone calling up and reading a truly bizarre news article. Then the hosts guess weather it came from Germany or Florida. Most of the really crazy stuff comes from germany or florida apparently. This particular story is from Florida. Florida is also the place where some couple named their kid ESPN.

    Is that whole plane carbon fiber? The plane doesn't look like aluminum.

    Wow, good luck.

    Well.. The main thing that might kill you with a hairdryer would be the current buildup in the tub water would conduct through you and effect your heart in a bad way. When all of those hair raising elements in the drier hit the water, it usually can conduct enough current to hurt you through the water Umm... despite popular belief water by itself will not conuct electricity very well, but tap water, and particullary tub water have a lot of electrolytes (aka ions) in it, thereby making the water more conductive. So, most modern hairdryers have GFI style plugs that look for a difference in the current going out to the current coming in. If the difference is great enough, it usually means that the device is shorting to ground, and it kicks off the circuit, thereby saving your dumb ass for another day of drying your hair in the tub. Did I answer the question? I'm pretty bad at explaining this sort of thing.

    I'm not a big fan of coke or the coke gummies, but I do like the coke slurpee. I've noticed there are two major groups of people when it comes to slurpees, one mostly goes for the coke one, the other mostly goes for cherry. Anyhow, I really like real cherries though. It's hard to describe what those "cherry" slurpees taste like. anybody ever had those green gummi frogs, the ones that are half dark green, and half white? I go crazy over those.

    That's very fake. Those cats are photoshoped up. Rather nicely, but fake. Anyhow, It would be very difficult ro paint a cat like that while the cat was awake.

    So, with your gall bladder out your going to have a harder time digesting fats right? How does having a gallbladder out affect your future diet/life? Just curious..

    I like to live under the philosophy of "take whatever you want, just replace it with like items." Also, try not take the last of things like beer. Anyhow, this more laid back approach worked well until a roommate I have for several months. He would deny he had eaten things, and never replace them. Then my bottles of wine started to disappear. We had other problems, fortunately he moved out after a few months. It sucked, guys like that really make you feel like you should run things like a business. I want a roommate, not a client.

    I agree, it's a great thing that rollinj explained what went on, and was able to admit mistake. Also it's good that he's still alive. This whole jump sounds like one of those situations where several things went wrong, fortunately, with a decent conclusion. Michael-

    That's great and all, but how wonderful can she be when she is in the house with that exhibitionist brother of hers! She will probably head the downfall of society somehow.
