That's why when I have things for sale, I start the bidding at a price I can be happy with. Otherwise, I feel like you do, it goes for too low. I bid the same way if I can. I wait until the last 30 seconds or so to bid. Most of the time, I win.

There are a lot of people who post here that jump at Z-hills. F1freak and I live at the dz! Like I said, there are a lot of us around!

I totally agree. I love stuff that gets your attention and makes you say "I want to hear more from that band/group/person."

F1freak's video is really cool. He put Metallica and Evanesance and I can't remember what else, but it's so much easier to watch than the PD video was!!

We're in Z-hills and we've gotten some light rain off and on this afternoon and this evening so far. I'm not looking forward to riding out another hurricane in this little trailer. Thank goodness we have the bunker if we need it. Good luck to all of you on the East coast. Our thoughts and prayers are with you yet again!

Closer by Nine Inch Nails!!!!!!!!

I'll be the 4th to say home. I miss my family so very much and I can't wait to see them again!! I love Florida and I don't want to live anywhere else... but I would love to magically transport myself to Texas now and then.

PROBLEM: Two books are for sale. Which to buy? "Titanic" or "My Life" by Bill Clinton? Titanic: $29.99 Clinton: $29.99 Titanic: Over 3 hours to read. Clinton: Over 3 hours to read. Titanic: The story of Jack and Rose, their forbidden love, and subsequent catastrophe. Clinton: The story of Bill and Monica, their forbidden love, and subsequent catastrophe. Titanic: Jack is a starving artist. Clinton: Bill is a BS artist. Titanic: In one scene, Jack enjoys a good cigar. Clinton: Ditto for Bill. Titanic: During ordeal, Rose's dress gets ruined. Clinton: Ditto for Monica. Titanic: Jack teaches Rose to spit. Clinton: Let's not go there. Titanic: Rose gets to keep her jewelry. Clinton: Monica's forced to return her gifts. Titanic: Rose remembers Jack for the rest of her life. Clinton: Clinton doesn't remember Jack. Titanic: Rose goes down on a vessel full of seamen. Clinton: Monica..ooh, let's not go there, either. Titanic: Jack surrenders to an icy death. Clinton: Bill goes home to Hillary...basically the same thing

I was the first in my family to jump. 6 months later my dad started. I was scared to death for him to jump, but he never had any problems, aside from several cutaways (he never learned to pack, so it wasn't him). About a year and 1/2 later, my younger brother made 3 S/L but never took to it. Around the same time, my (at the time) 73 year old grandmother did a tandem. I was acared shitless for her, because I love her more than anything and would have never forgiven myself if anything had happened to her (even though she did a tandem with a great TI). I have had a few friends make a few jumps and didn't worry a bit. Something about the ones we love...

How wonderful!! Happy Birthday to you and your new neice! I went to high school with a girl named Geoffery. Very pretty girl, very stuck up though.

Yes, I have already sold all of my gear because I needed the money. If I had more to sell now, I would. Aside from the fact that I couldn't, and still can't now, use a rig, I needed whatever money I could get at the time. In the past, I pawned my rig, and eventually was able to get it back. It sucked, but the money I got for it (WAY less than what it was worth) came in VERY handy. Once I buy new gear, if it ever calls for it, I would sell it in order to feed my family, keep my home, or whatever else I had to do. I love skydiving and the skydiving community, but there is more to life outside of that.

Top Ten Reasons Hurricane Season is Like Christmas 10 Decorating the house (boarding up windows) 9. Dragging out boxes that haven't been used since last season (camping gear, flashlights) 8. Last minute shopping in crowded stores 7. Regular TV shows pre-empted for "specials" 6. Family coming to stay with you 5. Family and friends from out-of-state calling 4. Buying food you don't normally buy ... and in large quantities 3. Days off from work 2. Candles And the number one reason Hurricane Season is like Christmas ... At some point you know you're going to have a tree in your house!

I have contacts and was having some problems with them before... and I have a full face helmet. I have never jumped with just sunglasses, so I don't have anything to compare it to.

I totally agree. I don't know who wrote that, but it sure would be nice.

I got this in an e-mail and wanted to share with everyone. Since it's political, I'm posting it in the Speakers Corner. Wouldn't it be great to turn on the TV and hear Goerge W. Bush or John Kerry give the following speech? My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of Iraq regime has been completed. Since Congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our Mission in Iraq is complete. This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American Forces from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now time to begin the reckoning. Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of Countries which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is short. The United Kingdom, Spain, Bulgaria, Australia, and Poland are some of the countries listed there. The other list contains everyone not on the first list. Most of the worlds nations are on that list. My press secretary will be distributing copies of both lists later this evening. Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war. The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world hell-holes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption. Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France. In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home. On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth. Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France, or maybe China. To Israel and the Palestinian Authority. You boys work out a peace deal now. Just note that Camp David is closed. Maybe all of you can go to Russia for negotiations. They have some great palaces there. Big tables, too. I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France, Germany and Russia. Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bon chance, mesamis. I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and crushed I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers, and limos be turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York. A special note to our neighbors. Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to try not pissing us off for a change. Mexico is also on List 2. President Fox and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra tank and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put em? Yep, border security. So start doing something with your oil. Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty --- starting now. We are tired of the one-way highway. It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them be saying, "darn tootin." Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America. It is time to eliminate homelessness in America. It is time to eliminate World Cup Soccer from America. To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thanks guys. We owe you and we won't forget. To the nations on List 2, a final thought. Drop dead. God bless America. Thank you and good night.

I had problems once when I was flying home from VA. They had to go through my gear bag and I had to explain everything to them. In 1999 I missed my flight from Miami to Texas because they had a problem with my rig. Only once when I flew from Tampa to VA was it all ok. The screeners had questions, but more of the whuffo type stuff. They were very interested in my gear, as far as how it worked and where I jump blah blah blah. Hopefully with Cora's experience with TSA... only better things to come!!

That's good news! Hopefully the other airlines will be as easy to deal with!

Well, he packed up and moved to a new town to be with me, after 2 months of being apart except for the occasional weekend. I stayed here when my family left to be with him. I would go to the ends of the earth and back... and do whatever I needed to do to be with him.

Nothing's happening here in Z-hills either. Just some wind. We got a little rain earlier, but nothing to talk about. They have the hanger open for us if anything happens. We also have the bunker. I'm a little concerned about the trailers out here. I don't expect it to be as bad as it was in Lake Wales... but then again... anything can happen I suppose.

isn't that the answer..... I totally agree with this. If it's a dream, then have a long talk (as previously mentioned) with your wife and try to enlist. Good luck!!

On May 14, 1912, exactly one month after the sinking of Titanic, Hollywood released the first Titanic movie. The film starred actress Dorothy Gibson a survivor of the tragedy. The movie was titled: "Saved From The Titanic." The film was a hit and and box office receipts were huge.

No way... I want to have children and watch them grow up, spend time with them and see them have their children. That's much more important than any amount of money.

I absolutely hate it!! I love the 2004 body style and can't wait to get mine!!

You bastard

Apparently your J-O-B allows you to spend time looking at smut like this. Maybe I should report you. Those a freaking funny!!
