Seriously, Ann Coulter is such a loony that the National review gave her the axe. She also said of Arabs that we should "kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity" in a syndicated column. She is a dissembler and a clown. On the other hand, she is more attractive than most Republican women.

My Blue Cross policy is pretty basic, but it costs me $35/month (and another $9 for dental). It doesn't exclude skydiving injuries. I don't get sick, so there's no reason for me to spend more.

Please don't. Fake boobs generally don't look that great. But my real objection is that they don't feel that great. My friend is a boob doctor and he claims that the technology is a lot better these days, but I've yet to be fooled by any.

I have a Minolta Dimage 5. It's a SLR-style digicam with a really nice 7x lens. I think it's like $600 though (which is bizarre, because I got my for $500 a year ago). But I just got my girlfriend a Nikon 2500 for christmas. I paid $225 and it's really cool. The lens rotates inside the body.

I got a Pro-Track, a wool jacket, some shoes and clothes, Super Monkey Ball Jr., cookbooks, and a Virgin goft certificate. I did get to buy some cool gifts, which is always fun. And I'm looking forward to going to the Lion King musical with my girlfriend and her family (I bought tickets for one of the last shows).

I know you were asking a lot of questions about canopy size. What size did you decide to get, out of curiosity? I'm about your size and I just took delivery of a Hornet 170. I'm going to jump it this weekend (beer!), so I can report on it then. I don't think you need to stick to the colors on the container. Silver and white, for example, will complement the black and blue on the container. They will also make you a lot more visible. The major downside is that white will show dirt. It wouldn't hurt to make your design a bit brighter for visibility and to find in case of a cutaway.

Just a weird note regarding Saturns. A guy in a parking lot had locked his keys into his Saturn. He asked if he could try my key (to a Maxima). I thought he was nuts, but sure enough, it opened the door. Flash forward to a few weeks ago. My roommate locked himself out of his Saturn. I tried my Ford Focus key and it opened it. Bizarre.

That's quality! My parents very nearly saddled me with A-S-S until someone pointed it out.

Oxycontin is oxycodone, just in a time release form and without the hepatoxic acetaminophen dose. Users crush the pill up and snort it in order to get all of the drug at once. It would be relatively harmless (like all opiates), except people have a tendency to overdose themselves. It's called "hillbilly heroin" in West Virginia and Kentucky because it's used by country junkies who steal it from pharmacies. Opiate connoisseurs rate it better than smack.

It's a quote from a NOFX song...

My canopy arrived Friday...right before I got on a plane to the east coast. Weak!

Ludacris speed? Is that like flat out in a Bentley flossin' mad ice?

If you peeps could change one thing about your looks, what would it be?

I seriously doubt I'd be able to land a parachute without my contacts in. For that reason, I'm pondering laser surgery. However, the potential complications are still scaring me off... -
My dad has a cabbage ear from rugby. He's lucky, though...one guy on his team broke his neck in the scrum...and then broke it again after he healed and returned. My dad stopped playing last year, so my sister is the only rubgy player left in the family. I'm altogether too much of a wuss.

I always wondered what it was derived from. I picked it up from the Monty Python Bruces sketch.

There was a pretty cool show on this on the Discovery Wings channel. They showed the design process for the lifting body. It was definitely an under-the-radar, unofficial development program. Fascinating stuff!

I have a plastic purple flower that my girlfriend hung on my rearview mirror after our first date. It's been on there for a year and a half now. Also, I have a little pink cartoon elephant head stuck to my windshield. I call it my "Log Cabin Republican."

My friend tried to convince me that "goa" meant "good on acid," not some city in India. What a bastard!

eeeewww id rather be a belly flier Heh, the last time I skied was...the day before the first time I snowboarded. There's no going back!

yeah, west hollywood city vehicles, including police cars (true story). Did you know that here in West Hollywood, there is a street called Dicks St.? And the rents are higher because it's fashionable to have an address that is: XXX Dicks St. West Hollywood, CA 90069

I'm so used to seeing rainbows on cars that I thought those little rainbows on frap hats meant the skydiver was gay. Then I noticed pretty much all the frap hats had 'em on...

There is a kosher Chinese restaurant here called Genghis Cohen...

I figured that skiing and skateboarding experience would translate directly into snowboarding godhood. Instead, I spent my first day on the slopes nursing a sore ass. Lessons were in order. Fast forward a few years, and now I shred. Ok, I'm not Terje, but I'm a reasonably competent snowboarder. Oddly enough, I found a sport that does translate well from snowboarding...it's wakeboarding! My friend got a wakeboard and I found that I could get up and ride well immediately. My non-snowboarding friends all pretty much sucked. Anyway, snowboarding is fun. It's definitely my second favorite sport...I'm so stoked it's winter.

My personal favorite is "Young Dong" in Koreatown in Los Angeles. As an aside, I saw a radiator repair place today that said, "The best place to take a leak!"

Personally, I don't mind it when guys hit on me. I take it as a compliment. After all, what they're saying is, "I find you attractive." That's always cool, whether it's coming from a man or a woman.
