What a Shame. The Propaganda is Working Over There
livendive replied to rushmc's topic in Speakers Corner
the irony. Beat me to it. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew) -

How will you be comfortable in anything other than Volkswagon bus painted with a groovy floral design? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

That's what the original post was about, and yes, I'm hoping for a piece to celebrate. However, the post you're replying to is about my birthday (for which I'd also like a piece), which isn't until the day before Christmas (when another piece would be nice). Please try to keep up with the random hijacks. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Probably not enough. I think they all deserve a 10% raise. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Did you read my reply? I not only read it, I quoted it! Which was extra cool considering it wasn't even posted when I hit the "Quote" link. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

BLECK!!!GAG!!!HUAH!!! Would that be any relation to the one and only Cindy Sheehan? Did you read the article? It says "no relation to anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan..." I'm guessing the gagging was age-related. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Wasn't that like a week or two ago? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Where's the option for "as often as possible"? I don't know if I'll be alone or have assistance, but I have that day off of work, so either way I'll be celebrating frequently. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Oh jesus, the diamond commercials are already back?

So basically, if I hack on diamonds, a hot skychick will become interested in having sex with me....where's the downside? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew) -
I didn't see Family Guy last night. Isn't that what happens when you try to stick it in her mouth and she turns her head? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Just spiders? I'm profoundly phobic of ALL bugs. All bugs give me the willies, but I'm only really phobic of spiders. Well, I'm also afraid of heights, sharks, and seaweed, but those are clearly not bugs. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I have no clue. Last year was the first time I even helped cook a turkey, and I just did what I was told. This year I'm spending Thanksgiving alone and am intrigued at the thought of cooking a small turkey just for myself, but don't even really know where to start. Suggestions?

:0:1 Went to the Apple Cup (UW-WSU game) Saturday with Aironscott. During the game, I caught a PAT kick cleanly (but security made me give it back), my beloved Huskies won the only game that mattered for them this season, and we got properly hammered after the game. Chrissylicious and Balls came into town to pick us up later and gave us a place to stay, and she even cooked us late night snacks and breakfast the next morning.

I used to lie a lot, just to make myself seem more interesting than I actually am. I'm still an attention-whore , but I don't lie anymore...ever. It just got too tough to keep track of what I'd told to whom. I guess I'm like a recovering alcoholic or smoker or whatever, in that I now absolutely despise the same activity that I used to participate in. There is now no easier way to loose credibility in my book than to be a liar, even if the the person is only dishonest with others. As for the attendance thing, I love having a relaxed policy. My boss would like me to let him know if I'm going to be "significantly" late, e.g. more than half an hour, but outside of that we're pretty easy-going. Similarly, if I need to take an afternoon off for errands of some sort, I can without taking "personal time", as long as I make it up to keep things "square."

Considering the time you posted this, all I can say is, well done!

I've done that. But the only times I've hallucinated have been when I combined it with a substantial amount of alcohol and then *not gone to bed*!! Ambien is fast-acting stuff. Don't take it until you're actually going to bed (unless of course you're taking it for entertainment value...usually others' entertainment because it also can cause amnesia). Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

It's a godsend for me, but it does differ between individuals. I know one dz.commer for whom Ambien doesn't do much at all. And a past girlfriend had the kind of insomnia that allowed her to go to sleep easily, but she always woke up about 2 hours later and couldn't get back to sleep. Regular Ambien didn't work for her, but Ambien CR does. (What a scam that is...6 months before your high-demand formulation goes generic, develop a time-release version and charge an arm and a leg for it ).

Like Phree said, he's a Seabee, i.e. construction. And an O-3 in the Navy is a Lieutenant. Lt.Cdr. is an O-4. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

There are probably over a hundred wineries within an hour of my house, and more than 20 within 15 minutes...I can go wine tasting just about any day I want. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I've yet to find a meditation or self-hypnosis method that works at shutting down the brain (my version of insomnia is almost exclusively of the rapid thoughts variety). They are good for relaxing the body though, and combining them with a ridiculously comfortable bed has allowed me to have reasonably restful nights even when I don't sleep at all. Thankfully, ambien usually works for me too. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I finally got home and am enjoying a dirty ketel one martini. I think I'll have one or two more, then see how they mix with wine. Ooh, look at that...See how I implied that such a combination isn't simply routine for me? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Off-topic side-note: I thought AADs were the same thing as AODs, but that the word "activation" replaced the word "opening" because of liability concerns (manufacturers didn't want to imply the device would "open" the parachute). Your distinction above suggests there's a difference between the two and I'm curious what it is...puller versus cutter? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

The Airforce Academy used to just throw them out solo on the first jump. It worked well and they have a pretty good safety record. I don't recall if they do that anymore, but I'll ask next week. Last I heard, they were still doing this. The way I heard it, they have a higher than normal number of AAD fires, but an otherwise good safety record (injury/fatality wise).
