  1. I was thinking about this awhile back. It's just one more reason that I'm really glad that I'm happily married. If I were dating now I'd have to ask that awkward question before we got anywhere near intimate. "Do you now, or have you ever, had a penis?" What, you've never had to pull a "Mick Dundee"? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHTPLpY8mBI For some reason that reminds me of an incident in a bar in the late 80s or so. The better the bands a bar gets the worse the bathrooms and this place great GREAT bands. Especially if you like reggae which my wife lives for. There's a narrow L shaped hallway, if you go back the straight part you run right into the door for the men's room. Open that door and you see the sink, the urinal and a commode. It was one of those nights when someone was using each of them. In my defense the piss from the last guy was still draining down the sink when I started using it. If you go down the hallway and turn right after a few steps you reach the women's room. It was a really packed that night and as usual there weren't enough facilities for the women so their line snaked all the way down the hallway and halfway to the juke box. As I said, I'm pissing in the sink, but then some drunk opened the door then started talking to someone. He stood there with the door wide open. I look up and there are dozens of women looking at me as i stand there with my dick in my hand. I start to do the gentleman thing, as painful as it is, to choke it off and turn my back but then I noticed that they were all smiling so I just went ahead and finished. No, no applause but all those smiles are something I'll never forget.
  2. What I find really bizarre are the people who try to debate them. I have a friend who's very intelligent but she's been in an online argument with a Moon landing hoax moron for months now.It makes absolutely no sense to me and in some ways is dumber than the one who claims it was a hoax.
  3. I haven't heard from them for years. Last I heard they were living in Naples Florida with a couple of kids and a boat that they went lobster diving with. Good people.
  4. And later on, of course "What's wrong with your eyes?
  5. What is it like trying to pull a soft handle reserve with your right hand? It seems like it could be a problem.

  7. We must be neighbors, Bob. It's nice to be able to sleep easy, isn't it?
  8. So what's the name and species of your support animal?
  9. Are you basing that on something or just pulling it out of your ass? Either way, you're wrong.
  10. It should be able to do away with privileges for so called support dogs. Service dogs are one thing, but this emotional support animal BS kind of sums up how silly things have gotten and need to go.
  11. I think the entire concept is BS. If you need the emotional support of your duck or iguana in order to fly, then you should stay on the ground. And I think animals in the passenger cabin are a safety hazard in case an emergency evacuation is needed. This isn't just about flying. Wait till you find dog hair or duck feathers in your lunch special. People seem to forget that there are real reasons for the rules about animals in some places. About that peacock, the used to have them at the City Park in Parkersburg Wv. My cousin lived close to it and went over a lot. They were nice to look at but thr idea of that call or stink inside an airplane is hard to imagine.
  12. On the other hand, something that is no surprise at all "and having no proof of liability insurance."
  13. "This has never happened to another student at this school" Yeh right. I remember being told that during my first jump training. I had a sleeve lock on one of my clear and pulls had to go with the 24' unmodified reserve. The next weekend going past the first jump class to the outhouse I hear the instructor saying "now this has never happened to a student here, but ....."
  14. Worse yet is the outright false statements they like to give as "facts" to support whatever insane message they're trying to spew. "So, here are the facts: XX never happened, ABC was proven to be a secret plan to discredit our Dear Leader, and (insert some person or group here) committed (name three atrocities) but is walking the streets free! This just goes to prove peanut butter comes from outer space, and the left wants us all sterile so they secretly ensure its in EVERYTHING we eat!" As someone who has worked in the news business, I'm increasingly frustrated that these people can so get away with the blatant falsehoods and false premise and call themselves "news." The average listener doesn't know how to tell the difference between a properly sourced report and this steaming pile of nonsense. I'm frustrated that because of this ignorance, any outlet reporting with journalistic integrity (yes, this does exist), is summarily dismissed as propaganda, yet this crap continues to be distributed (and shared/forwarded) as gospel. [/rant] Okay, sorry -- had to vent there for a minute! And, it's not just the right doing it - the left is just as much to blame for not vetting, corroborating and sourcing "news." We've become a society fueled by first to post/air some information; than one of quality to post/air valid information. What really amazes me is how the Republicans have developed a great skill in making the Democrats dance to whatever tune they want. When Trump said basically "black people, what do you have to lose?" they started (I'm not kidding, read Mary Sachez editorial) saying that inner city blacks live a wonderful life right out of the Huxtables. It was one thing after another like that. I remember hearing people talk about that as "Trumps latest gaff with black voters." It's like they were willing to believe anything as long as it fit the idea of HRC being the next President.
  15. Mig Fernandez and his wife Cindy would tell us about a friend of theirs when they were in Arizona that had a double dactyl. One day he was in the back of the pickup truck and the wind caught his main, pulled it out of his hands and was dragging him out of the truck so he quickly cut it away. But old habits die hard, they say he instantly dumped his reserve and still got pulled out of the truck.
  16. And they're putting friggin chemicals in the water that turn the frogs gay!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ePLkAm8i2s But he has such a kind, open face and gentle voice.
  17. And they're putting friggin chemicals in the water that turn the frogs gay!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ePLkAm8i2s What bothers me is that I've never watched or listened to Fox. Well, except for a few very unsettling minutes while in some waiting room and can't get any from it. But when I say something people disagree with, four out of five times they'll say "well, that's just because you get all of your news from Fox." It's annoying. "This soup is too salty" "Well then quit watching Fox News."
  18. And this package thief walked off into instant karma... and still made it off with the packages thanks to her man. http://digg.com/video/ups-delivery-instant-karma Package thief who took bad fall in Bothell identified http://www.king5.com/article/news/crime/package-thief-who-took-bad-fall-in-bothell-identified/281-512145265 The homeowner is frustrated by the loss and says one box contained a special medication. Insurance pays for some of it, but it doesn't cover replacements. The homeowner says it’s worth more than $5,000 and he doesn't feel any sympathy for the woman who fell. When we lived in town the UPS carriers used to be our own worst enemy. In the "you can't make this up" category one would put the package, boxes a foot square and bigger, on the porch then lay the welcome mat on top of it. If nobody noticed the package otherwise they would now. There was this cardboard box with a mat on top of it, which even said "Welcome." But the one that really bothered me would leave a note saying he'd left the package with the people down the street because they were home. Of course they were home. It's not like they had jobs to go to and they'd been out all night looking for windows to climb through to augment their welfare checks.When we moved, and if I brought packages home, I never used computer or tv boxes, only the ones that had had government cheese and disposable diapers in them so nobody would know all the stuff I had but now my latest expensive piece of electronics was just handed to this bunch. They'd give it to me of course, but knew where I lived. I really love having moved out of town.
  19. Airline passengers are creating havoc by taking Ambien before flying. But a pilot?
  20. People didn't vote for Trump so much as against smug condescending people who think anyone who disagrees with them is stupid. And at the rate those same idiots are going he might just get a second term. A person on another list said that the fact that Nixon still had a 25% approval rating when he resigned is proof of stupid voters. He believes that there were no reasons for some people supporting Nixon. I disagree with the Nixon supporters but it was pretty obvious where they were coming from. But no, it's because everyone is stupider than him. This country DESERVES a Donald F----- Trump.

  22. Is there a good source for rules and, if they exist, laws governing tandem jumping in the US?
  23. For the first 10 years I lived at my current location, I rented a box at The UPS Store just a mile away. It was great! Any service could deliver there. There was always an adult to sign if necessary. And the package was never unattended. Then the store changed owners, and the new owner tripled the rates. That was the end of that. I've considered making a box, bolted to the porch, designed to accept packages, but would need a key to access. Where i live nobody ever messes with it. I have everything dropped off on the porch. And, where I live just about everyone has guns and would love an excuse to use them. Coincidence?
