FallingILweenie

that movie rocks. i got it on dvd for 5 bucks a few months ago.

"And for the record, i will compete this year. I just need to find a chick to fly with for the patented "crotchdock"tm. move" a friend of mine and I have dubbed that dock on a girl the "bowling ball dock" (tm).

When i signed up for this I was the prez of the Falling Illini Skydiving Club at the U of Illinois, and I am a weenie. Kinda wish i could change it cuz it doesnt sound good when actually said when i meet people.

How could I have forgotten the Crow--I LOVE that soundtrack!!! Trainspotting is great too. as far as "scores" go, i also like Jurassic Park.

The Hunt for Red October has some great music. Run Lola Run as well. can't think of more right now, tho right on with the Elfman...

One question: what is considered intermediate? I consider myself intermediate--i have about 450 freefly dives (obviously jump numbers doesnt necessarily denote skill level).

I am an intermediate freeflyer, and i would say A) location, B) scrambles (so i can learn a ton) and c) a competitive atmosphere but that is geared towards making everyone better. This year i want to enter the money meet SDC over july 4th but i probably wont be able to since a friend is getting married on the 4th.

Happy Birthday Fool!!! so now that you're old, does that mean you have to belly fly?

"As I think to myself....exact change needed" that show is hilarious

The 2000s have the threat of being bombed to death by terrorists, and bad music made by computers for crappy pop stars.

i had 2003 so i kinda knew how the franchise system worked in that going into 2004. what i do when i first start is trade people for draft picks, even if it is for crappy ones, because there are a lot of overpriced players. second, i raid free-agency, because there a lot of good players that are usually betetr and cheaper than the players already on the team. depending on how many seasons you are gonna play, i would do whatever it takes to get michael vick (i had 430 yards rushing with him in one game--he's the fastest guy in the game). like i am the bears, and developed a quarterback and runningback over a few seasons, and then traded them both and a few picks for vick. yeah...the game is addictive..especially over the winter when there is no jumping.

yup...addicting game..i am on my 4th season, i think. mike vick is my quarterback (better than bo jackson in the original tecmo bowl), but my team is gonna come apart because of salary cap problems...

Hey Val, I was talking to a friend the other day that is in a similar situation, and something she said that I found interesting that you might also consider (if you aren't already) is to get a 2 bedroom and then rent out the other room. that way, it will be easier to sell it when you want to move on. blue ones tomas

that sucks, Val...good luck with the prospective new job. what 'burb are they movin to?

Agreed. It will be a hispanic male because of the large number of hispanics already in this country. but it will be a white-looking hispanic male, probably someone that speaks and acts very white and has a hispanic last name (like 2nd or 3rd generation).

Yeah, i gotta update my virus stuff at home (which is where i received the message). it'll be fine. i cant wait for the season to start. I want to spend the majority of my hinckley jumps learning to fly with a ball.

I'll be at Hinckley for safety day. As far as the computer thing..i had saved one of em, but not opened it. I ran a virus scan and a spyware thing i ahve that turned up nothing. anything else i can do (my virus software's a bit old). thanks. Tomas

Thanks guys...I'll send em along to yahoo's support. ps. 1.5 weeks till the season starts!!!! I AM PUMPED!

Hey all, I have come across some emails that seems suspicious regarding my yahoo mail. I got one claiming to be from adminsitration@yahoo.com saying my email account had been distributing spam, with zipped attachment to detect the problem. The second one claimed to be from support@yahoo.com saying my account would be frozen if i didn't "resign my acct info". This one too had a zipped attachment, saying it contained a document. I got a 3rd email that said the email servers would be down, also with an attachement--this one made me more suspicious (I was after the second one said i had to resign my acct info, whatever that means). The message said the attachment would set up a thing to forward emails to another account i chose. Now, all 3 attachments come password protected, but what made me think (aside from what i've already mentioned) is that none of them are written like the other messages i know are real. So, my question is, before i delete these has anyone come accross these messages? I just don't want to delete them unless i know they arent real cuz i'd hate to have that acct frozen.

you should try and either hit up SDC while you are in the sort of northern part of the state, or that saturady go to Vandalia, IL, home of Archway skydiving center and several dz.commers.

especially with the rush hour expansion.

Gravity dictates that unless some mechanism (a parachute) is used to slow the freefall, then anything that happens in freefall will not stay in freefall but eventually will hit the ground.

How bout this one (hint, it's sung): "the sky is blue, and all the leaves are green, the sun's as full as a baked potato..."

another good one is DJ Tiesto

Your best bet is probably just to call SDC and find out if they have their cessna running. It's sposed to be 55 this saturday...wish i could go jump.
