  1. GTA San Andreas.. up untill about 2 weeks ago, when I beat the game and realized how much time I burnt through on it. I'm playing with the idea of selling my xbox now.
  2. My brother got treated very poorly in the Navy, but it seemed like he really let it happen the whole time. In the division he was in you really had to stand up for yourself to get promoted to a better enviroment.
  3. So go home. Your letting this happen. It will happen again.
  4. It can happen, but only if the person wants to. It's sort of like switching a society to a democracy. It can only really be done by the person/society that's going to change. You can only aid in the change. Most people don't want to change. Ever.
  5. Nope, but I just set it to record a few minutes ago. Is "deep ocean" the first episode?
  6. 1987 was the first wear for most cars to go fuel injected. There was still a few manufacturers that made carburated cars untill 1991. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/car-parts-roundup.htm From the article: I think that you both loose, though, he's more correct.
  7. I helped a friend replace some lines in his place once. We put in 3/4 inch pipe and it brought his flow rate from 2.5 galson/min to just under 4. He had some blockages that was slowing things down quite a bit. Good luck though. It was quite a job for him.
  8. So I liked option 4 because I am a skydiver. But I think option 1 is the way to go because these cards are for tandems, and the girl in there looks very happy. All of this business card talk is making me think of that american psyco movie. (Raised bone font lettering!)
  9. There is such a high number of jumps daily at eloy that, statically, you will get clusters of accidents like there have been lately. Considering the number of jumps there over the number of accidents, Eloy is still quite safe. If you are worried about the pattern causing problems there, the landing areas are gigantic. Land somewhere else like me. I feel quite safe at Eloy because I can easily go land other places if the pattern is cluttered. I like eloy. I was at the last holiday boogie and lost a friend there. I'll continue to goto Eloy in the future. There are dropzones far worse than Eloy.
  10. I know it's been said already, but a lot of the time if you completely ignore the jabs from this guy it will cause him to loose intrest and leave you alone. You could try carrying a recording device to make a record of what the guy is upto, then take it to management. I would probably be a bit more childish in the same situation. It would be cool to go out and learn a move that would knock him out in one hit. I wonder how hard it would be.
  11. Making your own rig and parachute is possible, but it's only been done by very few people with a great deal of experience. I would suggest that you forget about making a rig or parachute for now. Posisbly if you would like to presue that, become a good skydiver, also become a awesome rigger. Then you should have enough knowhow to decide if you would like to take on the task. Good luck whatever you do.
  12. Balistics gel isn't very expensive. You might have some luck with this: http://www.myscienceproject.org/gelatin.html Though I imagine that it will be about the same price as balistics gel.
  13. That's what msnbc is reporting on? Slow news day?
  14. I'd be surprised if it hasn't happened already. Test engineers have a sex drive also!
  15. This change has been far to much work. Can't the bush administration declare war on the change? Americans are suffereing.
  16. Who is Hank Williams? You can try some rubbing alcohol, It shouldn't harm the polycarbonate. Otherwise, you can use sandpaper, 60 grit will probably be far to course. I've used 400 grit wet sandpaper in the past. If you use sandpaper, you have to make sure you rub the CD along a line going from the center of the cd going directly to the outside edge of the cd only. Rubbing in a circle or other angles is more likley to give you scratches that will cause reflections of the laser reading the disc. There are $20-$30 devices that can sand down the cd for you, such as this one: http://www.heartlandamerica.com/browse/item.asp?PIN=26494&DL=GAW1& They sometimes work. Or there are professional disc resurfacers out there, they work much better than these do it at home devices. You may be able to find the use of one at your local music store. Expect to pay less than $3/disc to have the thing resurfaced professionally. Good luck
  17. I remember seeing this before. I'm pretty sure this was a add for fosters beer. It's fake.
  18. Girls that wear glasses. mmmm. Happy moment there.
  19. Although I have never seen that popup, I suggest that you install Microsoft's Windows Defender: http://tinyurl.com/c9p2f It's pretty lightweight, and takes care of a lot of the junk spyware that is out there.
  20. oh my, I shouldn't have been watching that at work. It was very hard to contain my laughter. The croc hunter was so cool.
  21. Hello all, I came across this picture from that night we gathered at the brewery for Tommy D. It's all of up playing one of his favorite games with him. http://www.michaelgregg.com/images/eloy-2006/tommy-cunning.JPG
  22. Yes... But only if there is a camera around to record your stupidity for our amusement.
  23. ooof, I've done that a few sets of a few times. It was never a good experience.
