*lurks* *bellows quietly, sadly* Just 'cause you lurk does not mean we all have forgotten you. In fact, your number is still in my phone as "Jessicakes," though I have no idea if it's still accurate.

No perversion involved in stating obvious facts. Warm body to cold air is much more effective (and appealing) than a cold body to warm air.

Probably. You're still one of the new guys Dave's been here since 98-ish. Yea, back in the "Name changing" days. I was "iskydiveto" back then. Oh, yea, and I haven't met Dave either. Hmmmmm. It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1

Keith? I used to flirt with Keith. It was fun! But then I realized it wasn't nice to lead him on like that. I mean, geez, Muenkel is sooooo dreamy! It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1

Probably someone into dressing in drag. turtles luggage is probably quite, um, interesting... It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1

That's nowhere near as fun as thinking. And I think to think. A lot. Really. It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1

No no no! You have it all wrong! You need to get the girls up here to Wisconsin to sit in a nice HOT outdoor hot tub. When they are nice and toasty, they get out, and THEN you take the pictures! It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1

This isn't going to be pretty, but here goes... 15% of the active posters on dropzone.com will not continue jumping, but their post count will increase by 40%, mostly from threads where they willingly give advice, add "me too's," or say something along the lines of "This is what I would have done." There will be a large influx of new students registering here, and asking the same questions that have been asked since it was Sangiro's Synergy, like "What is the best canopy?" "Where can I get a free container?" "What is better, freeflying or RW?" and "What is the best video camera for jumping?" Sadly, at least one, possibly as many as 10 of us will die skydiving from completely avoidable incidents. A dozen of us,minimum, will lose luggage flying to and/or from a boogie. One of which will be a checked rig, that will never be "found." 5 Skydivers here will come out of retirement, proving the old saying, "Once a skydiver, always a skydiver." POPS membership will grow exponentially, from dropzone.commers realizing that being older is ok, while acting older is not a requirement. Squeek will finally get some people to drunk dial him on a regular basis! billvon continues to work, while knowing that with his intelligence he really wouldn't have to, while Amy just nods and says "Yes, bill, whatever you say." turtle goes to a boogie and actually has clean clothes with him! Spence pulls off a boogie with NO DRAMA, law intervention, or need for a garbage crew, while proving that nekkidness at boogie still exists. (Just not by him, please God!) Snowwhite loosens up and flashes more now that Don has decided to bring back the WFFC. (Praying here...) Streaker once again is happy to sit back and let Snowwhite "do her thing." Kris and Dagny raise a perfect child, until he is old enough to understand his parents are skydivers (9 months) and applies to be an Emancipated minor. Judge grants his wishes. Skybytch comes back as the original canopy nazi, and people actually (finally) start listening to her. Jessicakes continues bellowing, though as a lurker, nobody notices. And then there's Sunshine. She finally gets to see me again. Hugs abound! It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1

Yea, my favorite Messican and his hot wife have a son! Congrats, bud! Isn't it cool how a baby thread from a long time dropzone.com member can bring out the old-timers lurking around? I love it!

So you sent it using the wrong account. Then you sent again using the new account? is this right? If so, you just may have paid them twice. Each time you link an account in PayPal (specifically, checking account) you set up an alternative form of funding, usually a credit card. If you send money, and the instant transfer doesn't go through for reason, like a closed account, zero balance, NSF, ect. PayPal immediatly fund the transfer from the card. Even if there is no money in that account, it's quite possible it was still paid, using alternate funding. If you then sent from your correct account, you probably did pay twice. check closely!

I have an ARM, but with my wife and my credit, we were damn lucky to get that. It's a conventional though. IO, hell no! We've seen ups and downs on our payments, but since our mortgage is VERY small, it doesn't affect us, too much. Even a full point rise wouldn't hurt us, luckily, though we'd end up paying much more over the 25 years we have left. luckily though, we were smart enough to get a loan w/ no points, and no pre-payment penalties. If we were to pay off the mortgage tomorrow, we'd get a huge chunk of interest back. We did something along the lines of what you are saying. We bought a repo. It had sat empty for over a year, and it was really, REALLLLLLY run down. Our property values in this are are quite low, and then was well below that. It sat for that year at $45,000. Yes, that's not a typo. Only 5 digits. We offered $35,500 to the mortgage company from Salt Lake City (We're in WI) and they accepted within 2 days. We then took out a second mortgage to cover remodeling, which I did ALL myself. We have a new house with old studs and framework, literally. Our total investment was less than $80,000, including furnace, A/C, all appliances, ect. Our last exit appraisal from our bank was for $215,000. We do plan on paying it off, hopefully within the next 4 years, and do not plan on selling for some time. It's nice to know though that we CAN sell for 50% of market and still be ahead of the game. Our youngest is 8. We plan on selling when he graduates, and use the procedes to build a smaller, 2 bedroom ranch in our same area, but out of town. Timing is good, and repos can be really good if you have the time, knowledge, ability, and ambition to do the work yourself. To have the work done to this house by outside contractors would certainly have raised our investment considerably over value. Repo's, check 'em out. Talented people can do well with ones needing work, while less talented people my be able to find one in good shape that the bank just wants to get rid of. A house can be equity to you. It's a liability to a bank. Use that to your advantage. It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1

Actually, I just thought about that and remembered why... Where else can I see the country, visit many DZ's, make 50-90 G's a year (depending on how hard I want to work) and NEVER have a boss looking over my shoulder. Yea, I remember why I do it now.
