Naaaah. . .He wasn't perfect either. He could be wrong. Not all the cynics are all that accurate. Not all accurate observations come from cynics. He probably losing an argument.

Congrats.

Me and my Fiancee talked a lot about this in an event that this could happen to us. We agreed to terminate any down-syndrome or major deformity that's highly debilitating. But this was also discussed with the fact neither of us has had a child. for all I know, one of us may have a change of heart. _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

I used to google the not-so-friendly "trollish behavior" types. . .found KBone in a online dating site. I thought it was too good to be true, but the personality fit. Unless he was just trolling the dating site. . . _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

I answered wrong to this question you asked me initally. It was supposed to be a "Yes and No" not just "yes" I read it different. For your last post: I believe skydiving changes you only if you want it to. and I believe that if you use skydiving as a "tool" it won't change you at all. Do you have access to online academic jounals through Ebsco Host or other databases? If no, you would probably get a really long cut and pasted PM. _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

Fall is the best time to put in "put options" for something that is historically going to drop in price when the rise of fuel prices for the winter and the demand for travel increases to the effect that there's going to be more loss despite the extra travel during christmastime. The higher the price you put the option in the more money you make when you sell short when it drops. I wonder if anyone shorted Southwest Airlines, who had invested in gas futures a long time ago before 9/11? As far as a SEC conspiracy, why would they investigate a spike in a trend. Its kind of hard to investigate thousands of brokerage houses and individual investers. 90 times the seasonal average may mean that multitudes of investment corporations and retirement/mutual fund managers have seen a lot of short selling bids put in and followed the trend. _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

Yes. Based on research, (i'll have to find it again) and mine as well as a few others personal experience, you may go through a life-altering period of accomplishment and achievement that helps you accomplish more personal goals/feats until that super-personality wears off. The average tims is actually about 18 months (but it took me 2 years). You then slip back to your normal self. But, some may remember that they accomplished a lot and realize it was them all along and such future personal pushes are easier, and there's some who wait for the next "wave" to help them with their next super-selves. So yes, sooner or later, you have to face yourself after your "vacation" and make hard self-assesments: are you really a changed person? Or . . . for those that haven't seen the research or never cared about anything but to just have fun. . ."Hunny, I need to upgrade to the newer container, do you want a footrub for a year?" _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

I'm soon am going to be married to the greatest woman that walks this planet. My skydiving has been the focal point on the many discussions we've had regarding our future together. She doesn't skydive either, but she is very supportive and is willing to compromise. I also will be giving up most weekends. the only reason I met her was the fact that I took some time off the sport and rediscovered the non-skydiver side of the world. I was that close to not being the happiest man on earth. I believe you should keep one foot firmly in each world; skydiving and non-skydiving. It gives you a better balance and will prevent burn-out and prolong your time in the sport. In truth, there is no difference between a skydiver and a non-skydiver. Everyone goes through this euphoria of feelings reminiscent of a Tom Robbins's self-help "I'm-my-own-person-and-can do-anything," for about a year and a half to two years, and then your old personality seeps back in and you are back to square-one except with the added nylon over the head. So, with that in mind, why would one only date skydivers? _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

Eh . . .i,m screwed anyway. Okay. Basically it has to do with centering all aspect of your life on skydiving so much that nothing is better in comparison. Example. .skydivers have the best sex, skydivers are braver, skydivers have the most fun, skydiver male/females are the sexiest. Opinions that can blind you from other experiences and may prevent you from searching other avenues. _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

I originated out of Virginia, but most of this is regional pride. I've seen some really attractive ones come out of the Gold Coast area and Florida. But, I'll never relent on So Cal having the best. _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

Most of them are here in the south-southern CA. Perris, elsinore, sandiego. I don't have Skydive Blindness either, I know an ugly skychick when I see one, but these areas have a high concentration of attractive women. _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

Those two shitheads are nothing compared to that tick-turd of employee who brought that laptop home illegally in the first place. Yes the gov't would have told us. They are paying all venterans and active duty personnel free credit watch programs with all three credit reporting agencies as it is. They have instructed us to "assume that our info has been compromised". _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

downwardspiral is mostly right; possibly 100% right as far as giving up some rights. Now in this guy's case, it is complicated due to the fact of the type of security clearance he needs to perform his job, which is high enough to it would be in the best interest to national security to make sure only those with at least Secret clearance can even look at him for the rest of his life(if he is found guilty). Just like the Walkers now. _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln

Navy here also. Congratulations Chief-Selectee Brown!! I'll have to possibly wait another few years to make it unless my new upcoming ship has a hot collateral I can get.

don't worry about the caucasian thingie. I'm hispanic. My family listened so much to that old style dance music that when it came time for me to learn music, I had to syncopate the syncopation to understand what the hell was going on.. But it came to a positive. I used a lot of percussion in my playing and got it to where it sounds like I am playing two separate pieces (drums and percussion) at the same time, which is why stufff like paradiddle-diddles and other rudiments can help to make your playing more 3 dimensional. Singing and playing anything at the same time is a very hard feat to achieve. I envy Phil Collins. - - - - - -Phantom Regiment Rules!!!-------- _____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln
