***Your house is on fire. Your family and pets are all safely outside waiting for the fire department. Your home and it's entire contents are insured for full replacement value and then some. You won't be injured/killed/etc. (because you have some sort of magical powers or whatever you want to call them). You're allowed to pick up and take ONE THING out the front door to survive the flames. What is it?. You would leave without your Makeup I hope sparky the retired Fire capt sees this post and comments http://www.kirotv.com/news/news/developing-doctor-and-daughter-missing-after-two-a/ncCJk/ FYI we recently had this event that resulted in a tragic loss of life of the ER Dr and his son. What the article doesn't say is the house was 6500 sq ft. This tragedy was a wake up call to the whole community, and some interesting things came out that we didn't know, smoke alarms need to be replaced every 10 yrs. Some of The new smoke alarms can be connected via wifi so if one goes off they all go off at the same time. Fire and water and trucks will not be able to reach my house. We know that we have a 1/2 house fire rated safe in the basement where we keep all our pictures and other irreplaceable items. Action plan bought 4 new smoke detectors when the alarms go off we grab the dogs and leave, the house will be gone. Leave car keys in the car so we can drive off. Privacy comes at a risk and my wife and I are willing to accept that risk. IMO The tragedy at fox island would have been preventable if the whole family had a workable action plan. instead of just the adults. Learn from this tragic incident, especially is you have children. Also don't assume you will be able to exit by the front door, have alternate exit plans I don't care if I have to leave my house butt naked as long as I have my wife and dogs. Discuss or ignore R. R.

Hi John Just because the newspaper says something we all know they don't always get it right. I dont agree with the 12 man advantage thing. If the fans. from California want to go to the game there's no one stopping them. Think craigslist, travel agents, secondary market. We love tourists from out of town, the money they spend on rental cars, and hotel rooms, includes a 10-20% tax to help Mr Allen pay for the stadiums. Otoh there is the law of supply and demand. Why sell a limited number of tickets to a unlimited number of buyers. Some of the just want the tickets to sell on the secondarie mkt to cover their expenses. R

Lets think about this. The DB Cooper thread would be the perfect place to move this thread. They could analyze the physics, check the topographic maps along the flight route. The gypsy moth movie had a wing suit and it was pre DB. The OP might be the son of DB. One Jump Wonder

Merry xmas Got two letters from home depot explaining why my request for a CC was on hold. Droped a dime on home Depot and one of the credit reporting agencies. So no more credit aps will be accepted. I hope we caught the nigerian, or who ever is looking for santa clause in time. Home depot said the application was filled out in the store, so they will check their camera's. Ho Ho Ho Be careful out there. R.

Hi Turtle Nice one dude. It been about 3-4 yrs since we met at LP. My Mug is Same same as the last time we met, except the fuzz is just a little fuller, longer, and more gray, white, silver. You know we cant even say the Shaaaaa word. Now I'm going to have nightmares. The boss keeps on threatening me that when I die the fuzz comes off, and the suit + tie + underwear goes on for eternity, like ever. R.

Hi Mr T Our time machines passed ea other. When we went back to missouri for two months we went back to the 1950s. No net, no tv, no cell phone, the land line ....... was fine because it was already in the house and connected. Found a old multi function stereo in the house so we did have am fm radio. FREE Life was good for our simple needs.

Krip replied to BIGUN's topic in Skydiving History & Trivia
Hi Sparky, Bigun I'm still eating turkey sandwiches. Great video, second time I've seen it...... Did anyone else notice the collar of the GK commanders twin zipper pioneer jumpsuit at the beginning of the video. I'm happy pioneer changed their collar design by the time us young pups came along. R -

Hi The boss smoked a 20lb turkey. 20 hrs later it was tender enough to melt in your mouth. Drama ? The potential $1,000 fine for heating with wood or outdoor fires due to a week long temperature inversion added a little bit of spice. Feel lucky punk One Jump Wonder
