What's our definition of sleeping with? Full blown intercourse or does oral count? I've slowed down in my age and realized that it's kinda pointless unless you're dating. Never had a one night stand and never really planned on it...well unless oral is considered sleeping with/having sex

My appologies for not posting an update sooner. I appreciate the concern from everyone and am happy to say the results are 1 of 2 things based off of the conclusions of my dr. (which was a pain in the butt to get a hold of) and how the bite is reacting. 1. I was bit by something else that was big, mean, and rather pissed off. Similar pictures were found on the internet and listed as unknown... At the same time, the fang width was very similar to the brown recluse, which leads to the next conclusion 2. Based off of the amount of liquor in my system... Just kidding hehe But seriously, Dr. said that not everyone reacts to the recluse the same way and depends on the sevirity of the bite, how deep, how much venom etc. He doesn't doubt, though can't prove at the same time that I was in fact bit by one. Without the spider for identification it's hard to say other than how the body reacts. He didn't want to treat it with any medication unless it got worse (it's stayed about the same) at which point I should visit the ER. So more than likely, I was bit by one, though we can not prove it. And why I haven't reacted to it, just depends on the person and where i was bitten. Looking back at the night I believe I've pinpointed when I was bit to 2 times. First being when we were carrying pallets to the bonfire. They were all stacked up in a pile, damp, dark etc. Perfect grounds for them to live. I recall reaching for the pallet with my right hand, turning it and lifting, putting my wrist in the bite spot... I also recall there being spider webs there. Only other time i can think of, and wouldn't make sense cause spiders don't just bite to bite, would be sleeping on the new couch that showed up at the dz. All in all, my skin isn't falling off yet, expect in the spot where i was bitten. It tends to be swollen up in the morning a bit, but then goes down during the day as I do my stuff. If it gets bigger or any more red, then I need to proceed to the ER for treatment... To me, somewhat of a risk as the bite can get worse if not treated, but they don't want to risk treating it and it not being a recluse bite apparently. Again, my apologies for not keeping everyone up to date, I was reminded by a mother a appreciate her concern

Simple question. Are you affraid of heights? I hear all too often from whuffos that they wont go cause they're affraid of heights. I for one am, but it's totally different than standing on a ladder.

Yeah they're mean dogs when they want to be or feel threatened

You can buy superglue remover at walmart. I'd be willig to bet that'd work

Yes, well, depending on what camera you have. If you have a sub megapixel camera, the still image will be worse than capturing it from the film. Even more so at night when the still shots suck. What type of camera are you using?

ohhh good call, hadn't thought of that one, but USB2 and firewire is about the same speed isn't it?

I wingload my xf2 at 2.0 and haven't really noticed a problem with turb or chopping/windy days. Living in KS it's always windy, around 15-25 and I regulary crosswind it unless my approach won't alow me too. On a lighter wingloading, I could see it being a problem for sure though

Here's a tip, don't eat yellow snow Ok seriously If your garbage disposer smells really bad, put orange or lime peels in it, or just the whole damn orange if you don't want to mess with peeling it

Wanna buy a duck?

Agreed, depending on how busy you are one day it's nice to have 2, and a 512 is the best bet. If you're really in a time crunch, make sure you're using the ultra2 cards and a USB2 card reader. Set the properties in XP to NOT distplay the thumbnails as it slows down the burn process. Open the folder, then dump them directly to the CD, takes me about 6 mins total time to get a CD to a student

I've used + and - and only had problems with the + 2 years ago with the end of year video, but I think it had more to do with the bitrate that I set it at. Me personally, I use 8x Maxwell DVD-R PW (printable matte surface) and haven't had one out of about 200 return other than one that I forgot to burn

depending if the xfire1 had to have the mod on it or not will change a lot of it to be honest. The xfire1 without or before the mod had very light front riser pressure and openings, after they fixed the problem, and or the mod was added, the front riser pressure increased greatly. The xfire2 also has somewhat of a flatter glide to it, the riser pressure is about half way between the 1 and the 1 after the mod. has a better flare, and is more efficient in my opinion. The recovery archs also changed a bit from the 1 to the 2, the 2 has a bit of a shorter one, but nothing liek a stiletto I wouldn't worry about it to be honest they are about the same, though hands down, the xfire2 is a very very very nice canopy to play with

I don't think he should be flying it either, at my DZ he would not be permitted to fly it, regardless of how "safe" or "conservative" his landings are or could be, that's just how it goes, not safe no matter who it is Chris
