I can easily imagine that happening - it is hard enough to have a healthy relationship with only 2 people involved. On the hand the only relationship that my father ever maintained and stayed deeply in love with his partner was an open relationship (unfortunately she passed away) so it can work for some.

Then it wouldn't be marriage. An open relationship is one thing, but you shouldn't step in to marriage until you're A) Ready to commit to a monogamous relationship. or B) Willing to sneak around for cheap hookers and one night stands You see that is what I don't "get" - why should marriage be monogamous? In some male dominated cultures polygamy is allowed - in the west we are supposedly more enlightened and mature, shouldn't polygamy be allowed for both sexes rather than banned for all? I find it interesting that peoples assumptions also tend to focus on stereotype men as the wanderers - I have heard somewhere that a rather large percentage of kids aren't actually those of the husband (even though he thinks he is) Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

Why be married if you want to have sex with other people? Become a frequent shopper at the local adult toy store. I am sure you will find something there that will help you out. Marriage is about a lot more than sex isn't it? I personally see marriage as a decision to share your life with someone that you love and care for deeply - not necessarily an obligation to have exactly the same tastes and desires in all aspects of life. Of course respect is a massive part of marriage and it is pointless one partner or the other being blackmailed into something they are not happy with. I have never been to a swingers get together - but one assumes that swingers are there by mutual consent - do you think they are wrong for getting married?

On the basis that both partners are consenting (so I am explicitly not talking about cheating) what is wrong with partners having a fuck buddy? We don't all have equal sex drives and so why should one partner do without, we are also not good at everything in life so why not let people have freedom? Rhetorical question - I am personally not interested although I would have no problem if my wife wanted to play. Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

that is interesting and lots of interesting replies it probably means that there are less than 1000 people world wide extrapolating from the USPA numbers. I am 100% certain that the jumps are genuine as he a genuine guy and it is me posting the question (not him posting pictures etc) Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

Jo, I dont doubt that Duane had some association with Washington and had an aircraft mechanic as a friend, but none of that links Duane with parachutes. Parachuting is a TINY subset of aviation. What makes you sure that Horan can link Duane to parachuting? Put Duane in a chute or even an active jumpship/dropship prior to NORJACK and I will pay rapt attention. So far it is 100% speculation based on the evidence you have put forward. 377 I am pretty sure that I know a friend of a friend of Coopers Just need to figure out the right question to ask http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_separation Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

I am quite curious as a friend of mine recently did his 10 000th jump (we started at the same time - I have just over 100) When I was a current jumper 500 jumps was a skygod. I guess doing the maths he has averaged about 600 jumps a year. Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

and another... A woman recently lost her husband. She had him cremated and brought his ashes home. Picking up the urn that he was in, she poured him out on the counter. Then she started talking to him, and tracing her fingers in the ashes, she said, "You know that fur coat you promised me Irving?" She answered by saying, "I bought it with the insurance money!" She then said, "Irving, remember that new car you promised me?" She answered again saying, "Well, I bought it with the insurance money!" Still tracing her finger in the ashes, she said, "Irving remember that BlowJob I promised you? Here it comes..." Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

Two women had been having a friendly lunch when the subject turned to sex. "You know, John and I have been having some sexual problems" Linda told her friend. That's amazing!" Mary replied, "So have Tom and I. We're thinking of going to a sex therapist" said Linda. "Oh, we could never do that! We'd be too embarrassed!" responded Mary. "But after you go, will you please tell me how it went?" Several weeks passed and they met for lunch again. "So, how did the sex therapy work out, Linda?" "Things couldn't be better!", Linda exclaimed. "We began with a physical exam, and afterward the doctor said he was certain he could help us. He told us to stop at the grocery store on the way home and buy a bunch of grapes and a dozen donuts. He told us to sit on the floor nude, and toss the grapes and donuts at each other. Every grape that went into my vagina, John had to get it out with his tongue. Every donut that I ringed his penis with, I had to eat. Our sex life is wonderful, in fact it's better than it's ever been!" With that endorsement, Mary talked her husband into an appointment with the same sex therapist. After the physical exams were completed the doctor called Mary and Tom into his office. "I'm afraid there is nothing I can do for you," he said. But doctor," Mary complained, "You did such good for Linda and John, surely you must have a suggestion for us! Please, please, can't you give us some help? Any help at all?" "Well, OK," the doctor answered "On your way home, I want you to stop at the grocery store and buy a sack of apples and a box of Cheerios..."

I have wonderful memories of Scots in London

My mother-in-law was a hooker - I just hope I never get a gift voucher for my birthday . But contrary to the stuff that all hookers are downtrodden and abused, she did it cause she liked sex and money so she combined the two. Similarly I know of a law school graduate who also decided she liked sex and money so she swapped the day shift for the night shift.

That's right but this budget is still based on far more optimistic forecasts than everyone else and secondly only goes half way (by chancellors own admission) to wiping out the deficit created in the past 18 months.

Thanks it all came up clean. It may just be getting long in the tooth - it is just irritating and I don't like wasting money. This server replaced an older one running Win 2k, but old system didn't have the resources to upgrade and kept "dying" on me. The actual PC is still happily running Suse Linux long after Win2K gave up on the hardware. Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

I run a small network (5 PC's) off of a Windows 2003 server that sits behind a low cost ADSL router/firewall. The server goes through times where it runs out of resources and crashes 2 or 3 times a day and then will run quite happily for a month or so. Nobody ever logs onto the server from inside the network (guaranteed) and the router/firewall doesn't have any incoming ports open. That said it is conceivable that tainted websites have been visited from PC's on the network (although they all run anti-virus software and don't crash). Is there a possibility that the server has been hijacked or is it simply Microcrap? Any idea's would be welcome Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

It is interesting that in the UK it is illegal to operate a company without public liability insurance - I am surprised the US doesn't require the same. That said Strong has my sympathies, I don't see anything to be gained by suing people (including the TI). If it is a criminal offence then let the courts impose fines/jailterms etc. I find it sick that relatives and the lawyers who chase these cases are willing to sell a loved ones mortality for a quick buck.

Dirty jokes? *** Choosing a wife A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing among three likely candidates. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and watches to see what they do with the money. The first does a total make-over. She goes to a fancy beauty salon, gets her hair done, new make-up and buys several new outfits, and dresses up very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him because she loves him so much. The man was impressed. The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set of golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes. As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she loves him so much Again, the man is impressed. The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times the $5,000. She gives him back his $5,000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future because she loves him so much. Obviously, the man was impressed. The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money he'd given her. Then, he married the one with the biggest boobs. Men are like that, you know !!!!!!!!!! *** There is more money being spent on breast implants and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research. This means that by 2040, there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them. *** A man is out shopping and discovers a new brand of Olympic condoms. Clearly impressed, he buys a pack. When he arrives home, he tells his wife about the purchase he's just made. "Olympic condoms?" she blurts, "What makes them so special?" "There are three colors," he explains, "gold, silver and bronze." "So what color are you gonna wear tonight?" she asks with a grin. "Gold of course," says the proud man. The wife responds, "Why don't you wear silver -- it would be nice if you came second for a change!" *** The blind daters had really hit it off and, at the end of the evening as they were beginning to undress each other in his apartment, the fellow said, "Before we go any further, Charlene, tell me - do you have any special fetishes that I should take into account in bed?" "As a matter of fact," smiled the girl, "I do happen to have a foot fetish - but I suppose I'd settle for maybe seven or eight inches."

I have a real problem accepting the fact that the map is simply "wrong" and dismissed as casually as that. The map may be in accurate but it is presented as being wildly inaccurate and it sounds like this is simply the recollection of someone of 40 years ago! If the FBI are so incompetent they can't even tell if the raw data is correct then pack up and go home cause dB Cooper may as well have been Santa getting lost on his way from the North Pole. I also find it odd that it is mentioned the plane was not "on radar"? What is that supposed to mean as ATC radar beams don't decide to randomly "ignore" a plane. The transponder can probably be turned off on the plane which aids ATC (assuming they had those then anyway). The most interesting recent fact is someone mentioning the complete lack of NWA statements - funny how it is nearly impossible to view the past without distortion as my immediate thought was there must be a mountain of paperwork/risk assessments and other documentation they would have had to fill out. Perhaps back then they just sent a ticket person to the local police dept and reported hijacking and then put in insurance claim over the phone Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

Depends on the woman - There is a picture here that is probably posted by Billy but I don't have the stomach to search for his posts with attachments Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

No. He didn't. The airplane was not in any danger of going down and wasn't full of passengers. and there is no proof that he survived Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.
