You're taking calls for infomercial products?! What are you selling? I have GOT to call and order one! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Ambien works pretty well for me most times, if I go to bed within 10-15 minutes of taking it and *try* to go to sleep, but it's also pretty easy to shrug off the effect. If I stay awake for half an hour after I take it, then it doesn't make me go to sleep, I just act very strangely and have no recollection of it. Haven't tried Lunesta, but there are certainly some nights I'd like to (when Ambien isn't working). Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

She's sleep-posting. It should be interesting. Indeed! "Traveler's Insomnia" ought to be a little more entertaining the next day with a record of it. Haven't tried it with Lunesta, but there have been a couple times I've taken Ambien and then not gone to sleep. The next day it's wierd being told what I did/said without ANY recollection of it. (and not always in a good way...unlike alcohol, which just loosens inhibitions, it seems sleep-aids can occasionally cause people to say things they honestly don't think) Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

So we know that about a third of the women on here wouldn't mind if their man was going bald or completely bald, and that nobody likes a comb-over. What we *don't* know is how many (if any) of the women here are turned off by receeding/bald men and wouldn't date them because of it. The other 66ish percent? Would some percentage expect implants, rogaine, etc...whatever it takes to keep a "full head of hair" image? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

A good friend of mine when I was younger took a job as a lot attendant at a pay-for-parking lot. His first night on the job it was raining, and after two hours he said "screw this" and walked home. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

LOL - I finally cancelled my AOL about a month ago, after like 8 or 9 years with them. You know, we all don't use the AOL content...it's just an incredibly easy to access ISP from anywhere (especially true years ago, local ISPs incurred long-distance charges when travelling). Log in, minimize AOL, open brower/email program of choice, get on with business. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

My birth father died about 5 years ago, and I had a rich uncle die 2 years ago, but I'm pretty sure anything from either of them would have come through some other channel than an old work phone number Not that I know of, but I have to guess it can't be anything good.

I got a message yesterday that some law firm had tried to contact me at my old work phone number. I've never heard of them and don't have anything law-related going on in my life (that I know of!). I called back the toll-free number and left a message with my current (cell) number. This morning, the lawyer left me a voicemail on my cell. He still didn't mention what this is regarding, just that he's in the central timezone (2 zones east of me), and that I should call him Monday morning. Is there any possible way that this could be a good thing??! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I work with a woman whose last name is Felcher. I'm sure the worst first name would be Ima, but she wasn't *that* unfortunate. It's something simple like Linda or Barbara or something. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I was in 11th grade, sitting in my computer science class. The teacher of that class had been in the running with McAuliffe to be on the flight and had been dubbed second alternate or something...meaning he came pretty close to being on it. The school office interrupted classes to announce over the intercom what had happened. My teacher turned white as a ghost, went to his desk and put his head down. A few minutes later he dismissed us. I went home and for the first time in my life, spent hours watching CNN. When I look back on how life has changed in my lifetime, that event stands out, mostly because of the amount of news coverage.

Pretty much. The thing is in such a situation the student already has a decent handle on flying skills, at least to the extent we expect of students. So the total course of training can focus a little more on the other aspects of skydiving that couldn't be covered in a tunnel. Exit, altitude awareness, situational awareness, tracking, rapid fall-rate changes, gear, EPs, canopy control, etc. The only way the tunnel time is of benefit to them is if a) they avoid failures for flying skills and b) they get additional knowledge in the time we would have otherwise been teaching them to fly. Like I said, as long as they were adept at mantis, I'd want them to stick with that, but if they were new to it and adept at boxman, I'd go with that. The purpose would simply be to let them fly in the manner that will take the least effort from them, so more of their attention can be on those other things. Done properly, when this student gets off of student status they should have received the same amount of your or my time, but some of that time should have been spent advancing their other skills to match the (relatively) advanced flying skills they developed in the tunnel. If they're no better than a non-tunnel student the day we let them off of AFF, what was the purpose of all the money and time they spent in the tunnel? Bottom line - You're right. I wouldn't force a student to go back to boxman if they've already learned to fly mantis. That'd just be silly. I'd rather build on what they've got than put them back at ground-zero and build from there. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I had to throw mine away today. It said (approximately) "A new hat will give you a bright, fresh look, and improve your image" or some shit like that. Blues, Ox "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Perhaps Beth and I both need a visit... I topped out at 57% I need some serious de-purification. Ooooh that sounds like fun Jeanne already had her chance (attached), plus the weather's much nicer on my side of the state... Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
