Do you still need your cell phone charger? (Assuming it's an LG phone, your charger is sitting next to our front door) Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Yes, I have and no, it's not. In dealing with the repurcussions, I've found it's best to remember that you can't completely erase your mistakes. You just fix whatever you can and learn from whatever you can't. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Dave, I apologize for my reply to you. I made an assumption that was clearly wrong. It was a dumb post on my part. No need to apologize bro, we're just talking politics. I wasn't offended in the least. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Somehow I don't think that if the next President has an 'R' next to his name, you won't be singing that tune. Double negative aside, I wouldn't bet on what I think you're trying to say. From what I've read on the candidates so far, the 'R' party is as likely as the 'D' party to put forward a much better nominee than GWB. It's almost a slam-dunk either way. According to this survey, the closest candidate to my positions is a 'D' (Obama), followed by a 'G' (Augustson), an 'L' (McManigal), and an 'R' (Paul). Note that 'R' comes before all the other 'D's.

I do cheer for our country, very much so, as that's what side I'm on (I didn't vote for Kerry either). But yes, you're unfortunately right; Bush has been kicking the shit out of "my side" for some time now. What's sad is the same people who voted for him in the last two elections will be voting again in the next. On a positive note, the nominees of both major parties are likely to be an improvement over this guy, so either way the punishment "my side" is taking should decrease.

So that suit got a second jump after all?! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Why? And by that I mean why do you think it was and is the correct thing to do? Presumably you believe that in some ways things are better today than they were 4 years ago, and that the improvements are significant enough to justify both the economic and human costs involved in bringing them about. So what is so much better today that makes it worth the price? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Yeah, but they were Texans! Come to think of it, so is the condemned...umm...nevermind. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Instead of using his intelligence to do something good for the country, he used it to get a total fucktard into the oval office, and then advised said fucktard on how to poo-poo the Constitution, circumvent balancing powers, and carefully avoid anything resembling accountability. He's a smart guy who used those smarts for ill rather than good. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

When someone drives while wasted, the possibility that they will kill someone is very real, whether they plan to or not. Yet you never hear of them being subject to capital punishment. In this instance, I'm thinking manslaughter might be a more appropriate charge and the death penalty seems inappropriately harsh. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

From the CNN.com article Here's hoping he takes Cheney with him. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess you didn't see the white lettering at the bottom of his post. Perhaps highlighting the text would help. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

It was good meeting you John, and throwing a parachute over you too. As for Ed's comments, as much as it pains me to say this, Jason knows his place. He came up to me right after this jump and said, "Dude, I SOOOO just fucked the dog on that jump. Went low and barely got back up in time, just pulled the dock out of my ass right at the last second. Gonna have to work on that." Pound for pound, he's a good skydiver, and more importantly he's got a good head on his shoulders. With all that going for him, it's no wonder Carla agreed to marry him!

Sure you were! (See attached) Darth Vader helmet and everything! Ha! There I am! OK, I'm caught on the candid camera after all. I could post a screenshot or five, but I left my camera at the DZ. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

:14:0 Nothing but tandems this week. Between Wednesday evening and the weekend, I took 3 different people for their 60th birthdays, one for his 50th, one for her 18th, and one for her 23rd. That last one was particularly fun, as her boyfriend rolled out a 50x50 foot marriage proposal sign in the landing area while we were climbing to altitude. I flew over it and had her read it when we were at 2 grand and she freaked. The guy dropped to a knee & broke out a rock when we landed next to the sign. She had screamed yes a couple times while we were under canopy, told him maybe when we first landed, and then yes again after they talked a bit more.

Oddly enough, evolution has likely selected for a violent reaction to pain. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I saw a bunch of non-violent protesters singing. The cops were the ones who brought violence and aggression to the table in the video I watched. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

What he said. If we're going to have boots on the ground in a sovereign nation, pressing our attack on the terrorists who harmed us, shouldn't they be where those terrorists actually are? We had it right when we went into Afghanistan. When the fucktards fled to Pakistan, our President basically gave up the chase, looked around, and said, "Hey, since we're over here, how about we head into Iraq? I can one-up daddy and garner more of Iran's border at the same time. Yay!" He even went so far as to say he was no longer concerned about Osama Bin Laden. I, for one, would prefer we stay on task. Those fucks killed a bunch of our people, cost us a shitload of money, and gave our government a convenient excuse to trample on our Constitution. Our fighting deaths and the ill will we are generating around the world are unfortunate, but if they have to happen, shouldn't they at least be the results of our destroying those who actually attacked us?

Ding, Ding, Ding!! The garage is typically the "Man Pit", The place where he can go to get away from Nagging and Complaining. He can do this and not feel Guilty because he was "Working" in the garage. Usually working on turning that 6-pack stomach into a full Keg. Exactly. The garage is a place where a guy can tinker with something or just fuck off and drink beer without having to listen or talk to anyone. I'm guessing some women will read something sinister into that, but they really shouldn't. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I couldn't care less whether someone breaks a law to which I am opposed, and I think people who can legally vote, drive, smoke, work, and join the military should be able to have a beer if they so choose. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

#20 in the other set (international celebrations seem to be the theme) is pretty crazy. World's tallest man shaking hands with the world's shortest. The big horse/little horse one is pretty amazing too. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Which one was that? Find and destroy the WMDs that we knew existed (and knew where they were)? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

You can say that again, and again, and again, and again, until you've said it once for every candidate who has announced. These "least of several evils" elections suck. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

He seems intelligent and can put together a coherent sentence that sounds honest. That's a hell of an improvement over our current fucktard and better than the rest of the field. I don't like his stance on guns or gay marriage, but right now he's at the top of my list. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
