Yes. I've always wondered why you try so hard to emulate Mother Theresa. Don't be such a milquetoast. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Mine are Telesis student rigs, with small, medium, and large settings rather than a traditional friction adaptor, so I set the MLWs before donning the rig, based on my "educated guess". If it doesn't fit properly, I take it off them and re-adjust as necessary. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I've always found a cordura butt pad to be sufficient, except the one time I hit a rock sticking up out of the ground, right on my anus, just as we were finishing the slide. Of course the vidiot was only 5 feet away and recording the post jump interview as I was trying to get out of frame so I could cry. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

I likewise have no "guilt" or "shame" about that in which I did not participate. Nevertheless, I do look back at history with sadness and hope that we all do - thus to prevent the re-occurrence of the problems to the extent practicable. I suppose "shame" was a rather strong word. We, as a species, have done some very bad things, and I think we should acknowledge our collective mistakes and try to avoid them in the present and future.

Do you believe that black Americans deserve anything special? Nope. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Why should atheists deserve anything special? I think *everyone* should be ashamed of the amount of religous persecution that has previously occurred and angry about all of it that happens today. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

That argument is kind of silly. That's like saying the women in Afghanistan were free to discard their burqas and go shopping in bikinis, neverminding the consequences. My definition of freedom would involve something along the lines of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. With the medical system we have in place, our ability to keep our life going is near the top. On the liberty and pursuit of happiness fronts, well, the "war on drugs" has deprived a LOT of people one or both of them. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Me too I was actually thinking I should have added "and Beth" at the end of that sentence. And there should still be a law against coats like that. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

livendive replied to shropshire's topic in Speakers Corner
I can understand why people get irritated about others talking on the phone too loudly or while driving, dealing with cashiers, etc, but I don't get the argument against talking on phones in public. If you're ok with someone talking to the person next to them, but not with them talking on the phone, I have to assume the source of your indignation is only being able to eavesdrop on half the conversation.

What he said. "Best" is too subjective to merit any sort of serious discussion. "Freest" is slightly more objective, but not much, and I don't think anyone is making the argument that the USA is the freest country in the world anyhow.

It's here to satisfy the feeding of the OP's ego. Yeah, I figured it was something along those lines. I probably should have included a smiley, because my entire point was to poke fun at you. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

That would actually be very cool. We'd have to get Bozarth to come out of retirement for that one. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I still don't understand what this is doing in the instructor's forum. JP - Did you get the idea for inventing this while giving "legs out" to a backsliding student? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I say that every time I see a photo of livendive's daughter, too. Strange how these lovely young ladies can still so strongly resemble their dads. Hey! Congrats to your daughter J, and yes, I feel your pain. This one was taken a couple hours after the local salon took me for $250. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

The BJ was shortly after I got home from work. Dinner wasn't till hours later. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

You forgot the most important one! I don't know what the hell Maunday is, but it doesn't matter...there were much better ways to celebrate today!

Steak of course. A beautiful 2" thick ribeye, nicely marbled, with a large amount of "dessert" (the really marbled part around 2 sides of a ribeye...the bigger the better). Also garlic roasted potato wedges, asparagus covered with melted cheddar, and some nice wine. With my birthday being on Christmas Eve (despite whatever Frenchy says), it's never been that big of a deal to me. As a small child, Christmas was my favorite holiday, but by puberty I'd come to prefer Halloween more, and that stuck. For more than two decades, that is. Last year I suspected the top honor might have changed and today I can confirm it has. March 20 has well surpassed Halloween and is now by far my favorite holiday. Have I mentioned how much my girlfriend rocks?

I LOVE "prettygirl"! She's a cutie, Dave. Just like Muttley! Thanks. I agree Minka is cute (of course I'm a bit biased), but she definitely ain't hot like Muttley. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

For some reason I can't see anyone's avatars, much less Shell's boobs. As I just told Chrissy, I had a similar but probably worse episode with Ally, on brand new, white carpet. And here's some pictures of Minka from today (the two with the cat were last week). Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

It's a good thing my insurance agent is a jumper (and dz.commer). I'm not sure off the top of my head how many complete rigs we have in the house right now, but I'm guessing 15 or so. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I've heard occasional bad things about the new Tundra, but no real horror stories. I've only got 14k miles on mine so far (a few thousand towing, and Turtle knows how much I lay off the gas), and no problems. Guess I'll keep my fingers crossed just in case, but so far I'm seeing nothing but the same reliability I had in my last Tundra (135k miles when I traded it in, with only an antenna complaint that was covered under a service bulletin). As for the Dodge, I think they're sharp looking and I've heard good things about their engines, bad things about their tranny. IIRC, I just read that the new Silverado won Consumer Reports best truck, beating out the Tundra only by its reliability rating. It's an odd world! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

I believe the Tacoma is rated to get 1 or 2 mpg better than my Tundra. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
