    Declawing cats

    Deuce replied to Conundrum's topic in The Bonfire

    Regardless of position on this issue, celebrate the importance of it. We as a people are fed enough, sheltered enough, and loved enough that a transient pet's fingernails are worth this much discussion and passion. Without a doubt, 99% of the human population has better things to discuss. We are blessed. (No cats currently, never had any declawed, both the dogs are fixed, declawing, debarking and deteething is for the same type of parent of an animal who puts their kid in pre-care, aftercare, and summer boarding school. Someone who wants to owning a life without the burden of raising it.) Such luxury.

    Tandem Masters...

    Deuce replied to barroch's topic in Instructors

    Nah, I disagree. In the 182 (I've done tandems out of Davis's/Skydance's) you ride up with the door closed and the passenger secured against the firewall, and at altitude you turn them around and then hook up, open the door and depart. Easy and fun. Problem with the PAC is you're up against the firewall facing aft and have to be secured to the student when the upjumpers prepare to depart. That means lots of scootching over that spar toward that amazing Willie Wonka Room-like tail which just keeps getting smaller as you get closer to the door. If you have a PAC, it's something you could easily adjust to. But for those of us experienced with the other popular planes, it's a harder exit.

    It's much easier than it's described. Attach the lens, set the focus to automatic and point it at something 15 feet away. Then set the focus. Done. The depth of focus on the Royals, which I have experience with, is such that there's no issue. You just want the focus set so you don't get instances of "hunting".

    There's a dead hooker in mine. "Thank you! I'll be here all week"

    The music sucks. What do you expect from a band with a bassist named "Helicopter"?
  7. Deuce
    Attached. Fuck me? I'm only half-irish!
  8. Deuce
    No. What does it say on your hooters?
  9. Deuce

    You expect me to beleive a Tony Hathaway picture? You nuts? He actually reads the manuals for his camera, software, and printer! He just took a picture out a window and then photoshopped all that stuff! Video!

    i dont know............i think the 2 point 26-way of dot commers we did in Z-hills new years day is more It's way more. I haven't seen video of the Floriday jump yet, so it still hasn't happened.

    I just downloaded it. Cause I could. That's good stuff. Name the DZ.commers! The helicopter shot of Cielodiosas butt is great work by IwanVanDerScooter. Edit: Rate it! And buy Skydivingmovies.com a beer!

    Negative, ghostrider. The Army rat would have arrived to take possession of the cheese once the last barrier had been chewed through. (Silly unfounded interservice rivalry OFF)

    Coolest ever! If you don't have broadband, don't bother. If you do, download this puppy and see more dz.commers in the air than you ever have before! Sangiro freeflies! Betsy lands a beer-new canopy for the first time! Girlfalldown blows you a kiss after telling you she "likes it! Likes it a LOT!" I nearly die and cutaway! Check out the preview and then buy the DVD by ordering last years version from my website by clicking my sig line. Or just enjoy the preview. Man! We had FUN! http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=2135

    Happy Birthday, Lumster!

    I was hoping it was you. Congratulations.

    Your little "bye-bye" wave on your Gasson jump is precious. The Heli jump with chickie-mama is pretty sexy too. Hope you don't mind the slow-mo of your fanny as you get out of the heli! My wife even said "Nice butt!"

    E-mail Gareth. "airline disaster" "Planet Skaro" and the Helle's Belles stuff I used is just great. I like the DVD and the preview (that I can't get Premiere to author for me in a version I can upload) very much.
  24. Deuce
    Happy happy, joy joy. The beauty of you and Cielo never gets old. I'm glad you liked it.
  25. Deuce
    I'm a month later than I planned, but I've had wierdness and fear and loathing issues. I still like it, and I really like Gareth's music more than anything. Much of it is perfect.
