grue

Well, what should I have? I'm up for the day (doing an internal clock reset), so I'm not going to bed. cavete terrae.

That's one of the many reasons I wouldn't move back to Sydney - the humidity. Melbourne gets wicked hot too, but it doesn't get NEARLY as humid. Of course, up north is way worse, but you've gotta be out of your mind to live there. cavete terrae.

It was pretty crappy here today, cool and occasional sprinkles. Yesterday was pretty close to 100°F though. I wouldn't mind a few more wicked hot days before autumn, so I can get some beach time. cavete terrae.

That sounds like it will work. I edited my post, wear the polos after you have the job, you are still dressing to impress right now. From what it was looking like, if I show up in a polo when I have the job, I'm still gonna be overdressed Everyone seemed to be in tshirts, shorts, and flip flop cavete terrae.

I was actually told specifically not to worry about dressing up next time I was thinking instead of the polo I might wear a plain black longsleeve (a nice one, not like a generic cotton longsleeve). cavete terrae.

I'll be wearing a polo and khakis, I suspect. cavete terrae.

Went well, and I was very overdressed But I'll be meeting with the national IT director for the firm next week, and there's only one other "short list" candidate for the job, and he interviews tomorrow, so then it could be down to one cavete terrae.

zoinks! cavete terrae.

The short list consists of me and one other guy who's doing his first interview tomorrow, so if he blows it, I'm in by default I'll be meeting with the national director of the IT division next week though, so I'm confident that it's gonna be mine! cavete terrae.

I'll remember that for when you make a thread called "what matches the broomstick coming out of my ass?" cavete terrae.

Now if only I could figure out what to wear. What do you guys figure? Huge mega advertising firm, but for a technical position. cavete terrae.

I had no idea until I told him, he goes "that's where I got my first job after college, except I was at the Los Angeles office" WEIRD. cavete terrae.

House is a tremendously shitty show, brother. That's a matter of opinion. American Idol being a waste of everything involved is fact. If everyone involved with that show died, the world would be a better place. cavete terrae.

I've never watched an episode of American Idol, Survivor, or any of that other shit. People want to see "survival" on an island? Set up automated cameras everywhere, drop people on the island with no food and no training. Then you'll see reality. cavete terrae.

Torrents do answer your question. I left the US halfway through the season of most of the shows I watch, and I'm sure as shit not going to wait a year (or more) to finish the seasons. cavete terrae.

To answer my own question, it looks like House is back on the 27th. Probably for like a week before more retards on stage take back the slot. I hate reality TV so much that I don't have the vocabulary to adequately convey my feelings. cavete terrae.

When is this tripe over for the year, so we can have House back? cavete terrae.

Wait, you mean the biggest dropzone in the world has the most fatalities, too? What a shocking revelation. Next thing you're going to tell me is that more people take a shit in China than in Monaco! cavete terrae.

I can do that for ya. Really. cavete terrae.

I've been trying to find that one cavete terrae.

At the end of the day, all they want to do is crack open a cold one and get laid. cavete terrae.

No offense Steve but that is CRAP reasoning. It's far easier for you to take one step left to avoid a canopy landing than for the pilot to manouvre around you. Eyes peeling on the landing zone mate If I think I'm gonna get hit, I'm dropping to the deck. I'm not stepping left or right, because I have no way of knowing what Joe Canopypilot is gonna do. In any case, my point stands. If you can't avoid a stationary object, stick to the student landing area or something. From the perspective of the person landing, I'd personally rather see people just stay put until everyone's down, rather than trying to negotiate unpredictable moving targets. This is why I've had people notice and comment that I don't move from where I set down until I'm sure nobody is landing in my area. Of course that doesn't hold at a multi-plane DZ or boogie, but those are a different story altogether. if there's enough ground traffic to make me nervous, I just land away from everyone else. I have a long history of doing it, and I'll have an equally long future where I will do it as well. An extra couple hundred feet of walking hasn't killed me yet, and if it does, feel free to put "Died as a fat fuck" on my tombstone. If people can't deal with landing in traffic, they shouldn't land in traffic. At every DZ I've been to thus far, there's a shitload of space to land if you can't handle avoiding a person that's sitting in one place. cavete terrae.

0:2:0 Did a couple jumps with a kid at the DZ learning to sit. Ended up backflying most of the jumps since our fall rates weren't too compatible cavete terrae.
