Why would that be? Humidity? Pollen? Dust? If it's the humidity, which I know affected me in the past, up here in the summer we get 98 degree days and 90% humidity pushing the heat index up to like 102 and I haven't have a problem lately. So I'd be used to that. And I know it isn't the area you are talking about but I also lived in AZ for a year and didn't have a problem with my asthma out there. Hopefully it would be the same in the south east. As far as MOS I'm looking at infantryman. It's one of the few things I think I'd actually enjoy doing.

The real reason photoshop was invented.

This is pretty cool actually. It's amazing what photoshop can do. Check this vid out. Semi-NSFW (only because of what the model is wearing). http://www.break.com/index/the-power-of-photoshop.html -
Did anyone else feel a sudden urge to take some BJJ lessons?

waiting to go take a pulmonary function test in 2 weeks to (hopefully) prove I don't have a problem with asthma anymore. If I pass I should be in shortly. Cool. Yeah the asthma thing is a real motherfucker when dealing with the military. If you have it you, for the most part, dont get in. Thats why I'm getting the pulmonary function test. I haven't had a problem with my asthma in like 5 years. Even though I don't have a problem I'm not too sure that the test will come up with a 'normal' result. The other thing is the recruiters aren't sure what the wait is for my ankle. Whether its 6 months or just until it looks OK on x-rays. So I basically gave them all my medical records and they are going to send them up to an Army doc to see if it's ok for me to enlist.

So will you have to have your own insurance at that point, anyway? Your dad's policy may only cover you as an adult if you're a full-time student (just something else to look into). Well I'm planning on joining the Army. I basically have one more hoop to jump through and if I can make it through the hoop then I should be good. That'll take care of insurance right there.

Actually, at Skittles' age and (presumed) health status, it'd probably be a lot less, though any follow-up treatment on that broken ankle would probably be excluded for a while. I haven't been in the individual market in a few years (I went with COBRA when I was unemployed last year) but I recall in my 20s being able to get pretty comprehensive coverage in the $120-150 range. The other option is insurance through school (though based on his FB updates I have to say I'm confused as to whether Skittles is still a student or not.). I think I paid $600/year for insurance and $600/year for student health services when I was a grad student - so for $100/month I had pretty comprehensive coverage (granted that was a long long time ago!). I am still in school... until I become ineligible at the end of this semester.

How much is a Ticket to Madrid these days? -
Oh, I thought you were going to say you got an excellent review on your ball crushing skills. Btw, that video is pretty played out already.

You owe Gene beer for having Donny Osmond nightmares after seeing your mug. Then again Gomei might like Donny Osmond. Well then Gene should have been there when I was passing out shots like old people pass out hard candy.

:1: I only got one in yesterday and the weather was crap today. I probably owed beer for a lot of things but I paid up in the form of shots last night. spent way to much money on them too.

The first post didn't say anything about the CMN and I didn't read the second one till I just read this. Also he asked for serious responses. Appropriate or not at least it was honest and serious.

Make a BASE jump, possibly with a wingsuit. Worrying about dying isn't really there because if you are killed on that jump you only lose a few hours. Although I guess you still have to worry about negative media attention. Or spend all that time with my family and friends (skydiving and non-skydiving). Or maybe try acid, ecstasy and boomers. Haven't done any of those and don't really have the urge to right now. If I was about to die though that might change. Possibly throw some sex in with the ecstasy just to see what it feels like. The stories I've heard are ridiculous about how good it feels. I'd like to try it before I die. Edit: so basically I'm saying I wanna do something I've never done before. ('cept for the hanging out with family and friends. i do that all the time.)

Do you wear anything to keep them behind you? I don't have dreads so I can't speak from experience but one of the tandem instructors at my DZ has some pretty solid dreads and he always wears a bandanna to, I assume, keep his hair out of the way.

Don't know and don't really give 2 shits anymore.

grilled cheese and spaghettio's. mmmmmmmmm. *drool*

I'm going to the DZ for at least one day this weekend. I'm doing a couple websites for a friend on the DZ so I have to go out there and talk to him about what he wants. I may end up working on those all weekend or I may end up jumping. Idk yet.

absolutely--bathroom breaks too! Most of the flights I have been on when they are about to hit turbulence they make an announcement and tell everyone to sit back down and buckle their seat belt. When they do that you should probably wait to get out of the turbulent air before getting up to go to the bathroom. It may not have been that way in this case.

Relax? it's not like i'm pissed off. I'm just sayin...

Can i get it tattooed really big all the way across in an arch in big blackletter (old english) type? If you don't understand what I'm talking about, think Pac. His isn't in blackletter but you get the idea.
