[Devil's advocate]His inability to evacuate the city triggered additional costs that will be paid with federal funding, thus drawing away from your ability to get funding for a pet research project. [/devil's advocate] Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

How do you purport to speak for me? I have my own moral code and that's not it. Does this make me a "jack atheist"? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Byron Boogie - next weekend Larry's Last Boogie (Star, ID) - 2 weeks after that I don't make plans farther in advance than that. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

And lots of spare ripcords and locking loops? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I wonder if the numbers bear that out. I suspect we have no way of knowing. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I'm not Rehmwa, and you may not think I have a lot of good reasoning, but I am an atheist (of sorts) and so I'll answer anyhow. I don't consider it any form of blasphemy to say "under god" and I'm not worried about any eternal consequences. I do believe in allegiance to the country that's made my life as comfortable and fun as it is. When I'm at a wedding or a funeral and someone wants to pray, I simply keep quiet. Similarly when reciting the pledge, I simply skip the "under god" part. The reason for this is one of simple honesty. If I'm dishonest about part of a statement, doesn't that taint the entire statement? When I say the pledge, I mean every word I say. For that reason, I don't include words that I don't mean. Additionally, I kind of cringe at the thought of us letting what I consider to be a myth guide our way. The statement "one nation, under god" suggests that we should place our national interests below theocratical interests, and I firmly disagree. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

Yeah, that tune carries 535 hp and does 0-60 in 4.4 with a top speed of 186 mph. Ultimate sleeper car. Pink slips anyone? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Dude, you could have gone "family" with style, maybe a 340 hp Audi S6 station wagon? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

That's the case for "real" helmets. Skydiving helmets aren't designed to crush the same way. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I would like to take a moment to point out JasonRose's profile, especially the "Jumps: 89" section. He hasn't yet added the two jumps he made last night to his total. No matter, he's been a quick study and hit hundred jump wonder status dozens of jumps ago. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Not only no, but... Naughty Beth gooooood. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Note the word "archives" at the beginning of that url. This case (the current one) has not yet made it to the 9th Circuit. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I thought Elsinore wanted to see 200 jumps before their jumpers strap on a camera. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Yeah, cuz this country was dead until the phrase "under god" was added to the pledge, thereby reviving us. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I thought it was?? Nope. It was in a District court. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

That'd be even funnier if this ruling had been by the Ninth Circuit. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Loosely quoting the judge who ruled in this case, how would you feel if the schools required students to say "...one nation, who doesn't believe in god, indivisible..."? I don't feel really strongly about this, but I can see how the addition of the phrase "under god" turned a patriotic exercise into an affirmation of faith.

Skydiving is an expensive hobby. Jumpsuits and jumps for 160 women plus food & lodging for them for several days is bound to eat up more of the donations than other possible fundraising activities. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I think a McCain/Powell ticket (or vice versa) would win by a landslide. I don't know of anyone the Democrats could put up that would stand a chance. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
