    Cohen lied FOR Trump. When they ask “why didn’t the Dems bring an honest witness to testify?” the answer is Trump didn’t surround himself with honest people.

    Breeding age? What century are you from? Yes, they are out of your league; no woman who is considerate, positive, self aware and authentic is going to want to hang out with someone who uses terms like "women of breeding age." Possessing those traits do not make a male a better MAN, nor does not possessing these traits make a male LESS of a man. Pretty sure most women are not looking for someone who thinks the way you seem to. Also pretty sure that most evolved males would love to have a partner who can take care of herself and others in her life. Yes... you walked right into the women's forum and started insulting women. Probably not one of your better ideas. Indeed. But hey, thanks anyway, I did need a good belly laugh this morning.

    No bug, just wanted to thank you for creating an excellent new format. You solved the main bigs that concerned me, and it is now even easier to find the historical threads on forum topics. The layout and speed are very impressive. Big thanks.

    The point of them being there is so they can make a blanket denunciation regardless of anything that is being said. Most of the republicans on that panel went in with an agenda - protect the president at all costs. That's why they are there. (Which, ironically, is why Cohen is going to jail.)

    and I'm really pissed off with all the pre-prepared statements by the panel... What's the point of you being there if you're just going to make a blanket denunciation regardless of anything that is being said in the moment, you fucking arsemonkeys? This whole thing is a bit of a farce.

    Is it just me who wishes Cohen would respond to the continual 'this is just for the purpose of creating a political circus' comments with "Senator, with the greatest respect I'm telling the truth. If this is a circus then you're creating it."?

    Cohen: "I'm responsible for your (Congress's) silliness because I did the same thing that you're doing now for 10 years. I protected Mr. Trump for 10 years,"

    Yes, it should. But we have Trump. He already has targeted people he doesn't like. He has done a zillion things that the office of the President 'should be' above. I would think at least some of those should be impeachable offenses. But the Trumpettes simply don't care. And the R party is totally spineless in the face of those idiots.

    This is great to hear (read, lol). I've ignored intermittent pain for a few years, but after some tunnel time over the last month, it's really been aggravated (yesterday is the first day in a week and a half where I didn't have more or less constant pain. Today I'm pain free, which is welcome!), and I'm concerned about: 1. range of motion, especially since it's my right shoulder, and, you know, it's great to be able to reach back for my hackey ;), and 2. if these these things don't heal themselves, does that mean I'm marching toward a minimally effective surgery, no matter what? It sounds like maybe with PT, I can gain back my full ROM, and avoid surgery. And if I do end up needing surgery (which is probably a long way off), it might actually work. So y'all have given me hope! Seeing an ortho on Tuesday to get started planning a plan

    Not when some manufacturers are no longer servicing their own gear past 20 years. For myself, it became as much a question of where I drew the line on liability as much as function. I jump with a reserve that's over 20, but I've also had a long talk with that mfg and its on my back (no one else's). And FWIW, while I have helped folks purchase gear, and technically Strong has me on their books as a dealer, I am not in the business of selling gear. Just my $.02 JW

    "A Michael Cohen Preview: How To Evaluate a Known Liar’s Testimony" - National Review "Michael Cohen's testimony can't be taken seriously because he's always been a sad joke" - Washington Examiner If he's a known liar and has always been a sad joke, why did Trump employ him for so many years?

    Not a clue. I just walked in, assumed another feminist was complaining about being complimented, and got overzealous. When I think about it now, they are actually saying something completely different, this idea that "all women are beautiful" being an empty and patronizing message, which almost fits right in with my rant. And yes, there are other likely reasons to shave one's head besides militant feminism. Like if you had a niece who lost their hair from chemotherapy or something, and wanted to show solidarity with her. Or if you had cancer yourself. I obviously brought a lot of prejudices into this.

    Hey everyone, my darling wife bought me a tandem jump for my birthday this past January and one for herself essentially for our anniversary. Our anniversary happens to be the day after my birthday, so it is a little bittersweet for me in a way lol. So now we celebrate a "birthaversary". Back to the story, she bought the tickets to go to Skydive Spaceland here in Houston for this past Friday. Had to get a rain check due to fog and overcast that would not let up. 1hr 20 min drive each way. So Saturday we drop the children off with the in-laws and head back down to the DZ because the weather was clearing up nicely. Got all checked in, suited and geared up, and waited for the next plane to go up. Wasn't nervous at all, just an odd thought in my mind that once I got into the plane I knew I wasn't getting out of it on the ground like a typical flight for work haha. We fly up to about 13.5-14,000ish and the plane levelled off and slowed down, keep in mind this is new to me. Typical plane rides don't really level off and slow down like that, it was a mild oh crap here we go moment in the back of my mind that brought a smile to my face. Door opens and the solo divers all jump, then the camera man that jumped with my wife and her tandem instructor, then myself. I got to the edge of the door, looked down, smiled and we rolled out. I couldn't believe after leaving the plane how calm and relaxed I was freefalling towards the ground. No screaming or shouts of joy or anything...am I broken? lol we reached 7,000 ft locked on to the altimeter til 6 and pulled. It was at this moment that I started laughing when we started doing controlled turns and spiraling left and right, ok maybe I am not broken? We fly in the holding area for a bit then come in for landing and stick the landing. No sliding in or running like a madman. Just a nice buttery landing on our feet. Go inside and take care of the log book and walk to the smoking area to have a cigarette, and that was when the adrenaline kicked in. OK maybe I am broken, I mean delayed reaction much? Anyway, my wife comes out to me and is like we should do the second jump. I think to myself we are already here why not? I say to her lets do it. I paid, but we couldn't get onto the last flight due to a totally awesome memorial jump for one of their people that had passed due to illness. My hats off to that BTW. We went back first thing Sunday morning and got logged in and on the first flight up. Make an already long story short, had more stuff to do during freefall and we had another butter landing. Now it is safe to say that my wife an I are officially hooked, just need more money LOL. Her grand idea/plan is we should both get our solo license, so on our "birthaversary" we can both solo together, rather than doing tandem jumps. I like the idea, but money especially for 2 people to try to do at least 2 jumps a month would be really tight. I gotta give it to her though, in my early 20's I kept saying with "friends" we would go do it, but it would never happen. Everyone was always more interested in drinking and nightlife. Now I am 32 (not claiming to be old) and have yet another expensive hobby x2. If it wasn't for her I probably wouldn't know what it is like because it had fallen off of my priority list of things to do for fun. Anyway now I am interested in pursuing this and will be looking around the forum for next steps to take other than the class and jumps, more like when to buy gear and what to buy like should I bother with my own student canister or not. stuff like that.

    You dredged up a thread from 2005 to answer Tardo's joke after 13 years??? That is commitment.

    I think almost all women of breeding age are ok-looking. Sometimes I find a woman that lives up to my ideal, who is considerate, positive, self-aware and authentic. Then I usually avoid them, because they are definitely out of my league, and I don't want to develop crippling attachments! I believe the function of a man is to remove danger from his environment and lead others towards necessity, which I don't know how to do, and can't even remove the disorder from my own life. I don't eat right, exercise, have any schedule, etc... so if I can't somehow learn to self-discipline, I'm unfit to support a family. But, I'm somewhat proud to be able to set aside ego and notice the difference, instead of the childish view that all males are equally men. Don't get me wrong, if a woman also possesses these traits, that makes them an impressive and formidable person, but it doesn't make them better WOMEN. It's not what the man I describe is looking for in his life, that's for sure!

    You need a real rigger. A rigger that puts a 20 year life span on a reserve is a rigger to run away from.

    I don't even know what that particular insult refers to, so I have no idea what you're talking about there. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Soy Boy

    Looking at the description on that website I agree, it is hard for someone who doesn't already know to understand what an X-fire is all about. But if you dig past the marketing hype about "what a wonderful girl she is" you will see that it is a "fully elliptical" canopy with characteristics that are more like a Stiletto than a Sabre 2. The NZ Aerosports canopy that directly competes with the Sabre 2 is the Safire 3. Marketing these things like they are women just bugs me BTW.
