So who's already got a bracket filled out? I'm predicting we see a repeat of football, with OSU and Florida being the only 1-seeds in the Final Four, and they'll both go to the championship game, where Florida will beat OSU. Of course I'm usually horribly wrong on these. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Days of sunshine stats are a bit misleading. From here: Living in the Tri-Cities, WA, we probably match up pretty well with that. Realtors brag about >300 sunny days per year, and single-digit inches of rain. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

How are you going to do that?? You're like 4' 10". Yeah, she's short. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I paid $11 to watch it on a hotel TV last weekend. It didn't quite live up to my expectations, but it was still pretty damned funny. The wrestling scene...oh my god. That was fucking awful! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Who else has watched Babel thus far? I watched it last night with fairly low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. It's kinda similar to Crash in the way the storylines and represented cultures intertwine, but in ways that aren't quite as complex. The subjects tackled are a bit more black and white, but where Crash used dilemmas to provoke the viewer, Babel uses imagery that is sure to rile some. It is probably over half subtitled, with most of the story taking place in Morocco, Japan, or Mexico, and very much worth watching. I thought it was odd to see Brad Pitt in a serious film, and I think the Mexican woman gave a fantastic supporting actress performance. Definite thumbs up.

So I should just leave my rig at home and spend that extra $20 on beer? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

If i can find a woman that makes me feel the way i do during a dive...i WILL marry her! You realize part of the reason a skydive makes you feel that way is the peril awaiting you at the end, right? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I could go with that... You got the V6 engine, right? There were a lot of V8s at the dealership, and only one V6 in the whole bunch. That's the one I got. The V8 just cost a bit more than I wanted to pay and I didnt have the boat then. No, I got the V8, but its 240 horsies feel kinda weak compared to 380.

This is gonna be awesome!

Just a bit of advice Billy. Do NOT go test drive a new double cab Tundra with the 5.7 liter engine (381 hp, 401 lb-ft of torque) and 6 speed automatic engine unless you're ready to buy a new one, cuz suddenly your current truck will feel like a dog. Did I mention the 5.7 liter only gives up 1 mpg in the city and 0 mpg highway versus the 4.7 liter? Or that it comes standard with a rear locker and traction control? Blues, Dave Wow... nice! I am just going to see how far I can get with my truck... I want at least 250,000 miles. I have the extended cab but not the double cab, and the truck bed is big enough to haul most stuff I need to from Home Depot. However, the new one would work well for towing the boat I've kept in storage in my basement... Sounds like you and I have the same truck. My truck pulls my current trailer just fine, but I'd kind of like to upsize the trailer next year and will need some more guts. Maybe Toyota will have a diesel option by then.

I told you not to drink the water at the Farm. That shit seems to be going around there. Why? Are you pregnant Jay? I heard Lee's snip-job only stopped the straight sperm and he's the father. Have fun paying child support.

Jeezus...I thought I was bad averaging 25,000ish/year. You need a hybrid Toyota or Honda! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Got me beat. I've got 122k on my 2001 Tundra...the check engine light came on once due to a vacuum line coming off the air filter, everything else has run fine. I'm currently considering giving it to my daughter and buying myself a new Tundra with the big engine. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

You told him you would put out?? Wow!! Now that is really taking one for the Team to boost registration. I'm not so sure Brandon putting out would be a huge motivator to attend, and I'm pretty sure his intentions in making such an offer would be selfish in nature rather than sacrificial.

DZ.commer D22369 can probably offer some insight on this subject. There are a few canopies out there that have been sold as mains and also TSOd as reserves, but personally, I don't see the point. Main parachutes and reserve parachutes are largely designed for different purposes, and one can easily find safe variants for either. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

Said the man with four jumps. Said the man who thinks skysurfing should remain a National event with nothing but the aerial equivalent of a pity fuck for competition. Dude, why in the world would you want to criticize and diminish a newbie's excitement about the sport? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I found this thread when searching to see if I'd already posted about this jump I made last year. I think it was in June or so when I took Gail on a tandem but I just recentlly got this picture from the camera guy, Tod Hendricks. Talk about gung-ho...Gail showed up at the DZ with a big *real* tattoo on her bicep of herself hanging under canopy, wheelchair and all. Her smile was definitely worth the price of admission.

You're not goint to get the varied climates and topography of Washington, nor the ocean, at any of the other 3 states. You'll at least get the mountains and good winters/mild summers in Colorado. Why the hell would anyone want to live in Wisconsin or Iowa, where the nearest oceans and mountains are far, far away, and the winters are too cold to properly enjoy?
