  1. dude.. i didnt say "hi" to her one day at eloy... we barely knew each other, but had talked a few times... I was definately in a pissy mood so was kind of withdrawn and i guess i had walked by her a few times without really noticing... damn girl trip tackled and tickled me till i couldnt stop laughing..... see i cant not smile just thinking about it..... I really miss her.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  2. i so completely and totally agree... when i think about her i cant help but smile... NO ONE could be in a bad mood with her around.... she simply wouldnt allow it... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  3. strange.. i finally got around to hanging her picture up in my new apartment today... i had no idea it was her B-Day... the world is certainly less bright without her.... fuck.......................................................................... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  4. Ah, but sporting newly manicured nails projects confidence, and manliness. both candidates were carefully groomed, its unlikely they even dressed themselves... however, how they carry themselves is completely up to them... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  5. so are the channels running the JCM concert? or did they break away? I left the window up in the background, and suddenly the music started... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  6. Nah. The message itself is all that matters. Only clueless drones care about how something is delivered. When my UPS man brings my package to my door all I care about is what is inside the package...not the way he was dressed or presented himself. Time to focus on what's important...not the shiny bells and whistles. your forgetting who's actually voting, unfortunately our leaders are rarely elected on the basis of who has the best plan or vision, but instead by who attracted the most people to the voting booth.... there are far more 'clueless drones' than their are people who pay attention to the issues or understand how our political system really works.... Politicians are salesmen, selling themselves... how that package looks is very important to getting elected (or reelected) ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  7. Well Bush got it right... but he's also avoided the word in his continuing statement... seems some practice paid off.... overall I'd say Bush played to emotional appeal, particularly in his end summary, while Kerry is used his time to better express his position to the public.. Kerry also went to the Bill Clinton school of hand gesture...wither that is good or bad.... Good move on the part of Bush to have his whole family up on stage at the end, it certainly looked better than Kerry and his wife standing alone and the family appeal is something Bush wants to emphasize, but his daughters were obviously very strictly coached..."keep your hands together and in front of you..." But a few minutes before that, you said: Making fun of the vehicle, and not the message? I'll bet you're a democrat. you lost that bet. I was only pointing out that this would be an opportunity for the much expected gaffs. It honestly wouldnt surprise me if Kerry intentionally planned his answer there to say nuclear as many times as possible to provoke the word from Bush...flustering your opponent, making him stumble and appear foolish is simply good debate tactics. do you have any formal debate or public speaking experience? Any entry level speech course will tell you that is bad posture and projects poor position. In public speaking, HOW you deliver your message is at least (or more depending on audience) as important as the message itself. You can have the best writers in the country (and they do) but if you cant deliver it very well you will lose your audience. It is a performance after all, and one of the reasons why Reagan was so successful in his debates against Carter, he was simply an outstanding public speaker. If someone like James Earl Jones had run in his prime he'd have been a hard man to beat... in the debates at least.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  8. uh oh... he's going to have to say nuclear a few times now..... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  9. pay attention to the actual statement..I know it might be hard, but are you actually watching the debate??? leaning on your podium is a big no no... it projects weakness of position and a lack of confidence. and who's saying it.. your continually misapplied labelling only illustrates your ignorance. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  10. Kerry seems better prepared and is showing much less fluster by Bush's comments than Bush is by Kerry's... simply on basic posture Kerry is winning this one... Bush is having difficulty standing without leaning on his podium... it is certainly not much of a debate as it is, as others have pointed out, a 'dual press conference' but how often has Bush said "uhh... ummmm uhhh" as he collected his thoughts in response? How often has he reverted to catch phrases as rebuttal? His handlers should have spend much more time working with him.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

  13. heh, i know 3 people that wont pack for you if you smoke.... they can smell it on your rig... and talk about the evil eye.... i have two really good friends who smoke, the smoke itself never really bothered me, but its annoying having to wait for them everytime we went hiking anywhere..... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  14. lol it's louisiana.... its damn near below sea level.. maybe some A's and a couple of B's in Alexandria that are do able, if you had access, but i wasnt really looking at it like that when i was there... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  15. it was a nice illusion.. I honestly thought you'd cropped it that way on purpose.. it was closer to the drawings of the two faces/the goblet or the one that switches between young woman and old depending on if you saw the line as the curve of her jaw or the edge of her nose... seriously Rosa its nothing to be ashamed or embarassed about, when you looked at it square on it was obviously a closing pin, its just when it caught your eye as you were scanning down the page... edit: to add the woman pic... apparently the phenomenon is called "Pictographic Ambiguity" you could photoshop your to make it more ambigious, but i think part of it comes from the forum having 'thongs on the brain' in the last week.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  16. chuck's right... last time i was there Sept of last year last i think, the Post itself has been seriously renovated....both housing and training areas, as part of the new digital training and simulation centers, but outside?? its a shit hole and in the middle of no where...but you can get some good crawdads and catfish in a couple of places, there is one really nice, fairly famous 'seafood' place a little ways out on the way to Alexandria, right on the lake, people pull up in their boats and eat on, or come inside for the ‘fine dining’.. live music several nights a week too. The day we went there, there was a college party going on and the eye candy was phenomenal...cant recall the name of the place though…. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

  18. its an SU-30. that footage was from the Paris show in 1999.. http://www.gibstuff.net/aircraft/Videos.html has a ton of crash, gun cam and other aircraft footage.... edit: wow.. that was harder to find than i thought.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  19. see thats the problem your looking AT it, it only really looked that way when you just caught it out of the corner of your eye..... silly me.. i thought it was cropped that way intentionally... and thought it was pretty cool ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  20. I agree basic virus scans should be computers 101... i keep most of my relations up to date, even the ones who cant set the clock on the VCR. it's not much different imo from keeping oil in your car. if you cant be bothered to do it yourself, hire someone who can..... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  21. maybe... might come to see the DZ at least (not jumping again yet..) a couple of people have been bugging me about making at trip back east and i just figured out the logistics of it so...... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

  25. it could possibly be any business/website/person etc you've ever used your email with...... there are a very limited number of places i use my dz.com address for, nearly all skydive related....but some how, some where, someone found it and used it as a spoof for sending a virus... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
