  1. eh? not following here.. what could have decapitated him? isnt Orlando one of the 'suck' varieties with the fans at the top??? ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  2. since i dont have a BASE canopy yet.. I'd be taking my skydiving rig downtown and testing my reserve on a few B's i've always admired..... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  3. exactly... i've gotten a few 'returned' emails here from viruses that picked up my dz.com email address from somewhere, since i rarely use this address except for skydiving things, I know i'm not sending anything out.... if your computer is always on set your anti virus to scan DAILY, pick a time that your not likely to be using it and you'll never even notice unless it finds something.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  4. but if you remember some of the BEST Reagan skits had him as a bumbling incompetent publicly and evil genius as soon as the cameras were off... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  5. Powell has been rather side lined by this administration in favor of civilian 'experts' like Rumsfeild with NO actual military experience... Bush's inability to listen to the advisors who actually have some experience in the realm they are advising him on, is one reason I can no longer support him. Hopefully Kerry will do better.. if not, we can vote him out in 4 years too.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  6. deathangel is still together iirc.. they changed their name to "the Organization" and put out 2 albums i think... I loved their first album, The Ultra-Violence but imo they went down while with Frolking thru the Park and Act III. The Organization didnt do much for me at all either.. I saw them open for Testament and Anthrax on their first tour...cant even recall what Testament album it was now.... DA was that good.... I think it was Spreading the Disease for Anthrax though.... hmmm that reminds me of another good reunion although i saw their last show right here in Phoenix.. Armored Saint... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  7. hmmm have to rethink my career as a floor layer... get your minds out of the gutter.. that is how we test the floors afterward if the homeowner is hot... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  8. that would be cool...except Chris has burnt his voice...saw him with Audioslave twice last year and he tries real hard, but he cant do the wails the way he used to... he cant even do some of the things he does on the Audioslave album live... which really sucks....because of the possible reunions that one would be high on my list.... Sabbath could reunite with Ian Gillian and do 'Born Again'. I never saw that tour, but from the bootlegs i've got it was one of the best incarnations of Sab ever....unfortunately he has the same problem as Chris...even though he took better care of his voice.... for 'dead' band members... Metallica with Cliff, most def... I'd love to see them once more and be able to recall why i liked them to begin with... but highest on my list would probably be Morphine... I got to hang out with them all the way through their last tour of the southeast, but never really had a chance to say goodbye to Mark before he died... I guess most people never really do, but that one hit me pretty hard.... If we are really wishing i want to hear the Jimi Hendrix Experience...... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  9. see that one is actually sort of funny... although they should have called it "Mom Swap" switch two mothers from completely different families... i've only seen one episode, but I was rolling... of course its the kind of "we are laughing at you" not "laughing with you" brand of funny.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  10. "'But I don’t want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked. "Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad." "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here. Almost everyone is mad here.......... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

    All wet

    i've found it is always better to laugh than to cry about the things you cannot change... its a hell of a lot more fun for one, and you look better doing it, and remember it's always better to look good than to feel good going to swing through eloy on your way back to cali? goin back to cali cali cali... goin back to cali.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  14. what is really stupid is "We researched it and decided the majority of people wanted a less potent drink." ummm duh, so mix it more to your taste... I seriously doubt anyone who was already drinking it 'neat' wished it was less potent. based on my experience as a bartender i'd say their marketing research has some issues... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  15. Southern Comfort did a similar thing a few years ago.. my friend (who swears by it, even named her band in reference to it among other things...) noticed right away... we had to go out and buy multiple cases of the 'good stuff' to keep her happy for a while... she's since adjusted, but hides a few bottles of the original for special occasions... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  16. Wouldn't shooting them get less prison time ? rotflmao... 2 points! ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  17. And..I am still waiting! HUMPH! hmmm well lately i've certainly got the time on my hands, but one imagines you'd prefer a date that is capable of dancing if the mood strikes... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  18. the few times the military forced me to get a flu shot it actually made me sick for 2-3 days... so when i HAD to get on to deploy (as a civilian) and the predictable headache etc showed up a day and a half later, i called in and told them i was sick, why i was sick, and didnt come in for the rest of the week... by thursday i was feeling fairly normal, so i went and jumped thurs/fri.... that is the best side effects from the flu shot i've ever had
  19. my "Avast!" key was broken for a while... i didnt know what to do.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  20. ok.. here is a big one, for me at least... (other than the donation thing, which i figure i'm getting off cheap on, with the membership prices. 95$ for a year?) you know all the silly 2 line "heya how bright is your day?" PM's you get from time to time? you know like the 30 or so from Holly I deleted doing some pointless 'house cleaning" a few weeks before we lost her if I'd had the folder feature then, I'd still have them all.... i keep lots of silly emails that have made me smile, but i generally keep them pretty well organized in folders so my main inbox is fairly empty....one day all the clutter of PMs annoyed me enough i cleaned out a whole lot of them....I havent done that since... with the folder system i can keep any and everything i wish to and still appease the organizational monkey.... that is worth the price alone for me, and its cheaper than a date with a pixie whatsa matter JT? its only green pieces of paper, less than that since you have to use a credit card think of the beer and slugs we would have never enjoyed without this site... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  21. i know a number of people in various states who registered to vote for the first time in their lives this year... they are not fans of Bush..... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  22. written by Harlen Ellison... would that the rest of the series were done so well... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  23. hmmm TNG ? the episode where Riker and a Klingon officer are exchange duty positions for a while... no idea what it is called also (iirc) "Below Decks" where you see the how the lower ranks live and work in the TNG universe... DS9 -i think it is called "Blood Oath" 3 Klingon's meet with Jadzia Dax to pay an old debt.... of course there isnt much i wont watch Terry Farrell in... yowsa... DS9 was all around the better show imo, it was so often so good, without beating you over the head with the lead pipe of social commentary it should be given a separate name apart from 'Trek'. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

    Eminem

    what you seem to be missing is HE(Eminem the actual person) isnt always the one 'speaking' in every song. I.E every song is not about his life, or his personal views. All songs have a character. Sometimes that character IS the artist, but quite often it is the artist assuming a voice, a character to express a particular view (and create a reaction to it, but not necessarily one of agreement with) or make a statement. Music is performance, because a performer adopts a particular 'voice' does not mean that performer IS the voice. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
  25. When did you know it was time to get out? waaaaay to much political BS, I still really really enjoyed my job, but as i moved up i was getting to do it less and less and spending more time dealing with stupid soldier issues that shouldnt exist. The military should be a dedicated service that people are competing to be accepted in, not a place for the bottom of the barrel to hide.... our society does not give them the respect, or the pay they deserve How did you handle the transition? easy. I had a job waiting for me, and so much accrued leave they had to pay me for, i didnt have to work for the 2 months all of the paperwork took... What were the difficult parts of leaving/entering the real world? Easy parts? you too? my uncle had to slap me on the back of the head a few times so i wasnt at attention in my sisters wedding photos... of course he was doing it to remind himself and most of the guests as well.. my grandfather joked that the uniforms would have outnumbered the party dresses if everyone (females included) who could have worn them did, and my niece had complained the year before that everyone looked so stiff in all her photos..... being raised in the military, going in wasnt that difficult at all... I didnt know "Front & Center" was a military command until my first promotion.. I thought i was in deep shit Would you go back in, given the chance? No way.. I still work with the military everyday, but they couldnt pay me enough to wear the uniform again... There are some serious, dedicated professionals in the military, and there are some 'lifers' who just couldnt cut it without the support structure the military provides... simply stealing oxygen for 15 years without being caught doesnt make you a leader, and you should not be promoted for it... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
