  1. ... the people in the hotel room next to you are banging on the wall. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  2. Yes, but personal attacks aren't allowed here. And it's not really that clever. I'm not arguing that it's not a skydiving video. The 'trailer section' is for trailers of commercial skydiving videos. It Matt wants to be irritated with it, I think he has the right. If it would have been posted as 'check out our video from taft' I don't think he would have cared at all. But it was tied to an upcoming porn that might have skydiving in it which spiked his traffic and you could even argue constituted advertising. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  3. Well, you better get over there and tell them to take down the "trailer" video section. Do you honestly need the difference here explained to you? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  4. It's hidden here I always saw SDM as a place to share cool videos with other skydivers, not a place to pimp an upcoming commercial endeavor. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  5. I sold them years ago, so if you have any questions I can probably answer them. Better locks, replace basement windows with glassblock, trim back 'hiding places' near windows/doors - all a good start. First suggestion is to at least get 2 companies in to give you a free quote, and don't be afraid to tell them you've got another person or two coming in. There's massive markup in the equipment. They really just want to get you on a monitoring contract, that's where they make most of their money. For the majority of people, the 'free' system (usually 2-3 doors & motion sensor) is plenty. Depends on what you want to do (protect property, protect life, deter would-be theives) and the layout of the house. As far as companies go, most of the small local ones sell the monitoring contract to a bigger company, so it really doesn't matter. Just make sure the equipment looks solid to you (they should have demo gear on them) and their installers are insured. nam - did you install or sell them? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  6. Yeah, just went ahead with the ebay thing, don't feel like messing with it anymore. I didn't have a 'feedback rating of whatever' so I couldn't do the 'buy now' thing, so I had to pay ANOTHER $5. Dear god, by the time I'm done it's going to cost $40 to sell the stupid things. Ebay sucks... I miss the old onsale.com auctions. Actually, I'm thinking of using overstock's auctions one of these days - no sniping. And I don't even like you, why would I give them to you? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  7. Anyone know of any auction sites (that are decent) where you can do a quick auction? I have tickets to session 1 of some silly basketball thing going on this month, but the shortest ebay will let you do it is 3 days and that's pushing it to close it, get paid, and get them mailed. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  8. You're one of those people that puts everything you want to say in the subject of the email because you're too fucking lazy to hit the 'tab' key ..... aren't you? I hate those people. They will not be allowed in my country. Also, people who abuse the CC and BCC field will not be allowed. And those who send a joke out to 500 people and put all the addresses on the "To" line will be shot. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  9. That'd be nice. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

    Dammit b^2 - stop trying to be the voice of sanity. If someone doesn't like something, then it's crap and should be disallowed. Stop trying to convince the world otherwise. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

    I'm still confused as to what side-sliping had to do with anything... I think they heard a term and just really wanted to use it somewhere. John, you want to complain about no infrared beacons?! That breaks it for you, but the not prebreathing for a high-alti jump, that was ok with you? Eh, I'm not altogether impressed with the show. I might watch it if I'm bored, but President Palmer trying to be a bad ass with a gun just doesn't work for me. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  12. Everyone needs to be clear on their topic titles? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  13. FWIW, there's been similar discussions, I think on here, where we came up with about the same idea: 1 skydive ~ 500 miles driving. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  14. Where's Dr. Philbo when you need him? He likes blowing things up.... it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

  16. Interesting. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  17. Actually, Rhino has now managed a double lifetime ban. Sweet! How did I miss that one? Must have been in SC.... So, did he have 2 user names banned? Or is this like 'consecutive life sentences with no chance of parole' for a heinous crime against the community? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  18. Hi. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  19. No Rhino in your top 5?!! Didn't he manage a lifetime ban at one point? it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  20. Crap! I can't find my hijacked version of yours..... dammit! it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  21. gotta be. high or low. slow or fast. know the man, know the plane. he flew in nam, didn't he? He said "2, maybe more..." sooo.... the only 'know the man know the plane' I can think of is Mullins - King Air, Fayard - Casa, Rod - 412, that one guy - Beech-18 it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  22. If it is birdman (and it fits the clues) I think namgrunt is gonna get lynched it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

  24. I'm leaving bonfire for at least a few hours. Maybe even a whole day. You people annoy me - there's uninteresting drama, fluff, and this unexplainable urge people are having to just copy threads and change the gender. I will check back later to see if there has been any original thought. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  25. phhht. but where's the fun in that? this way they have a chance to throw inside-insults around, make each other mad/jealous, attempt to win over public opinion (and by 'public' I mean 'denizens of dizzie dot com) all the while providing me with some entertainment. Well, you know, entertainment in that train wreck sort of way. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
