  1. What's your incentive to get more than 200 jumps if nobody will talk to you until you've been in the sport long enough to become bitter? I hope your not very serious about this.
  2. It sounds like it's time to change pharmacies.
  3. It's very difficult to do. I have seen a few people pull off a similar maneuver a few times, I believe that it involved the e-brake. And those didn't leave big donut marks. Good luck beating this.
  4. How many repeat customers do the places that offer 30,000 ft jumps have?
  5. uasually there is not. Just as notmiss said, you might try blowing out the cooling paths. If you take the laptop, and close the lid, pick it up and look around the outside edge. Your looking for what looks like a grill that goes to the inside of the laptop. You should see some sort of head sink in there. It wil look a bit like the fins of a car radiator. They might be a copper or silver color. Particullary if those fins seem to be cloged with dust, try taking some canned air to them. Avoid using shop air, shop air is a higher pressure and can bend the fins. bent fins will lead to overheating. You might find some holes on the bottom of the laptof that lead to the other end of the cooling channel, sometimes you blow things out by blowing the air in that end. What type of laptop is it?
  6. Go into the BIOS on the laptop, see if you can turn the processor speed down. Otherwise, do you have some process consuming a bunch of processor time or what?
  7. 100 "krystals" that's 16,000 calories of burger, 1.5 pounds of fat! 0.66 pounds of saturated fat. yikes! I imaging that there is going to be some purging after that event.
  8. Wrong, no I don't think your wrong for acting like this. Though possibily abnormal. I was just reading a study a few weeks ago about how people work on helping girls and boys, particularly in math, parents (both men an women) seemed to simply give the answer when the child was a girl. For boys, the parents were more likley to give a "well what do you think" or, "lets go through the problem" response. The paper was trying to explain the disparity between men and women in science aptitude. If you think about it from the kids point of view(girls and boys), if your asking for the answers, and you get them, why are you going to bother thinking about where the answer came from, or what it means. I think that your gf's behavior is moving the burden of having to think critically off of her daughter. Now the trick is to explain that to your gf without offending her. :) Disclaimer: I'm not a parent.
  9. Three nights? What were you doing all of that time? That is, were you climbing that whole time?
  10. David Bruce Central Coast Petite Sirah http://www.klwines.com/detail.asp?sid=470EB9001B7AE17F&N=%2D323&sku=1030128&ItemName=2005+David+Bruce+Central+Coast+Petite+Sirah&Nr=OR%28OutofStock%3AN%2CInventory+Location%3ASpecial+Order%29 That should be to your liking.
  11. That print screen trick might be working. You are going into ms paint, and hitting ctrl-v to insert the image from hitting printscreen right? If your getting a blank area where the image should be your going to have to use a video editor to get your images. Adobe primere or whatever will be needed.
  12. So, how much water are you drinking? The only time that I've had problems with my hydration tube freezing was when I went ice climbing in canada when it was -25c out. Do you think you can get yourself to drink more water, thus keeping the flow going to prevent freezing? Otherwise. you might try painting the tube black to better warm up in the sun.
  13. I'm not sure what they are looking for in question 1. My answer would be that I need the type int when Im on small systems, where multiplying two longs together can equal more than the max var size for the system, therefor, multiplying together a long and a int will be less than a double long. But I doubt that is the right answer. Question 2: another possible use of a extra parenthesis would be to make order of operations calculations correct. Some compilers honer the order of operations, some do not. example: a * b + c (a * b) +c != a * (b + c)
  14. That would be one way to solve the problem. :)
  15. That was funny. Some people need to learn howto take a joke.
  16. no. You will need to exchange it. DDR2 is a different type of ram. To start with, the DDR2 shouldn't even fit in the DDR slots. DDR has 184 pins DDR2 has 240. Sorry-
  17. Hah, I have a similar story. I was screwing around out in some backroads, and ended up hitting some guys fence, knocked part of the 1/2 mile span down. I found the house that belonged to the property to let them know that I would take care of it, and the lady that answered was very skeptical of me. She obviously thought that I was upto a scam or something. I finally ended up talking to her husband, and we drove out there. The guy seemed really surprised that I told them about it. He got out some tools, I held the fence up while he moved some dirt. And the problem was fixed. The guy was very friendly It seems crazy to me that someone would be so self obsorbed that that they would drive through your fence twich like that. If they had drove out through the same hole and fes sed upto it, your landlord may not have even charged them for anything, and everybody ends up feeling better about the problem.
  18. Sorry to hear about your new position. What happens to a individual if they test positive?
  19. Even if you did think of drugs when you see the plate. So what? Why are people so upity about this kind of thing? I just don't get why our society tries to control all minds and behaviors so much.
  20. wow. That's awful. I can't imagine the loss. There are people out there that don't immunize their kids.
  21. I sure hope not. Cunnilingus is much less enjoyable for me when I've got all that hair in the way, getting in my teeth.
  22. I know I'm not suggesting a website like you asked for, but if you go out and watch some Good Eats, that will probably help you a lot. On that show the host not only tells you what to so, but why you ae doing it. The explanation really helps yu to understand what's going on.
  23. Do you have your computer plugged directly into your dsl/cable modem? of do you have a nating firewall device?
  24. Ahh, well then sorry for the repost. I searched for it before I posted but didn't come up with anything.
  25. So this guy wraps his head in duck tape, so that he can rob a store. The plan doesn't work, he gets caught. But no fear! He's got the mad skill of denying that he uses on his redneck girfriend every time he does something wrong. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUB-90bCm6U
