  1. If it's your first freefall camera, go ahead and get the XT. It's more than enough. My challenge was beating my 10D enough to justify the replacement. The 400 is it. I knew a plastic bodied "20D" was coming and I'm glad it's finally here. Like I've been joking, I'll make you a great deal on my 10D!
  2. Nah, he's in Europe, very different mindset. I think you'll be fine. I am, however, both pretty stupid and very tough. You can jump with your neck brace (or a neck brace if you don't have one) I've seen that many times on people with noodle necks. What's the worst that could happen?
  3. 'Who predicted it first? ME! Bwahahahahahaha! Pay me. Who wants my 10D at an amazingly reduced price? Eh? JP
  4. You guys are all silly. Cops want to arrest bank robbers. Repeat: Cops want to arrest bank robbers. If you are radar-busted for 10 0ver the limit it's because your fellow citizens are pissed cause you are scaring their kids. Suck it up and pay. When I was on the street and pulled someone over for a mover, I'd ask them if they had been to traffic school in the last two years. (CA) If they had not, I had no problem sending them to traffic school (no effect on their insurance) If they had, they were goofuses and needed a lesson. Yeah, I was recentl;y pulled over for speeding on my bike, but it had been 6 years. I got out of it. You could too.

    Perris Fury?

    Only from afar. We're a NorCal team, and I think the only other 4 way team up here is Quattro, an intermediate team.
  6. That is exactly right. I'm selling a house for some skydiving friends that is just beautiful, but it's waiting for the right person to buy it. As for being put out, the thing to do is get enough of a non-refundable down payment to cover your mortgage (at least) for the two months that it might take the worst buyer to close. And that's why I never put "Sale Pending" riders on my signs. Keep track of those interested buyers in case something goes wrong. I feel for you!

    sorry, I didn't realize that we voted for open ranking. Advanced? My team.

    Hey, Michele, I've done a Rosary for your dad. Prayer seems to help, even if it means that strangers care. Hail Mary, full of grace..... Heart.
  9. I'm really digging the two display thing. I use the laptop when I'm out, and can relax when I'm home. I'm sure the Mac has at least the same ability to use two monitors, and it's great. Enjoy, Holmes!

    These are all open teams, right? Then I vote for Mel's team.
  11. Dude, the number one thing you'll get out of both Gasson and Finley is "don't do a video" of something where there is a deadline. It's incredibly hard and Iwan had to step up to get this year's Holiday Boogie done. I look forward to seeing a Birdman project from you. I'm absolutely sure you have amazing footage from all over the world. I'd love to see some birdman over that big Jesus statue in Rio. Bring it MONKEY!
  12. I relined my Spectres in Dacron and really can't tell the difference. The slider hangs up more. Hey, MonoUno, I like that "when you were shitting green" thing. I'll be using that.
  13. I was in Elsinore letting their Otter take bites out of my leg all weekend. Thanks all!
  14. OK, you saving me covered in slippery Swedish foam on your lappy ain't so bad. Poor old Cpox is one of those evangelical former fat guys. I still had more fun in the foam than he had taking unflattering pictures First in Foam!
  15. Oh, crap. That's it. I always knew I was too comfortable with my sexuality and love of shoes. How to tell my kids.....
  16. You're going to be in purgatory a long time for taunting me with that one. Great party, though!
  17. Holy Crap! That's welcome! Even if you are Kieth on his other computer!
  18. Advanced? Onyx. Oh, yeah!................... http://www.onyx4.org/aboutonyx.html
  19. Did nothing for me, but we aren't seeing that much good stuff in there lately anyhow. I thought, "Point Break" and "Yawn". I liked the one that had me on it, but it made me look fat. Or maybe that was just light reflecting off me. Seriously, if it was on newstands, that cover might have gotten some attention. From us? "Do a trick, monkey! Do two!"
  20. Oh, good God, Bill, we and the UK folks are SO different! I was packing up to leave Eloy one Christmas after agreeing to stay a day late to photograph a group of UK friends out of the balloon and when we got down and I was getting them digitial copies of their prints, they saw my pistol sitting there and just froze solid. I handed it to them (both UK military officers) and they just couldn't believe it. Especially the loaded gun part. I don't mean to get into politics, but when a person from a gun state tells a UK'r "Of course there's a gun in the glove compartment" some sort of fuse blows. I think it's wired to the safety Nazi thing. It's the US. "That's the Grand Canyon. It's pretty. Don't fall in."
  21. My 10-year-old gets her braces off the day after her 10th birthday! Pretty smiles are worth it!

    Blow me.

    I was at Marriage Encounter over the weekend at Santa Clara University (Jesuit-figures) and a pamphlet there states "The risks of getting STD for oral-anal sex are similar to the risks from oral-genital sex. In addition, intestinal infections and hepatitis can be passed during this type of sex. People can protect themselves from STD by covering the anus with a latex dam, a condom cut open to make a square or plastic food wrap." Wow. Romantic. Um, maybe just don't lick people you don't know. Crazy thought, huh?
  23. Arvel, I've never got bad info from you. I'm just getting old. Everything has to go on top and I 'm waiting for the new "XT". Everything but flashes up top fron now on. Bless McGowan. He is one tough son of a beoutch.
  24. Nope. I've just wrecked my neck. The 10D is too heavy.
