Excuses, excuses, excuses... You just want to spend money instead of buying me a beer. Getting this container will be a case of beer to you because it will be the F word. I am picking out my new rig for the season

HUH? it will be the f word... I dont get it

Pssst, First.

What movies do you watch that can get you out of a funk??

Oddly enough, when I'm pretty down, comedies do nothing for me.

American Beauty does it for me.
No matter how bad things seem in my life, that movie is a reminder that this is just one day of an oh too short life, so I better get up and make something of it.

Works every time.

Yeah, I'm breaking the rules, turn me in to one of the moderators.

Ok.

***Poof***

You're a moderator.

Damn, it worked!

Anyway, thank you for all your hard work and dedication to this forum. I haven't had to post here with a question for a long time. I've had questions, of course, but a search in here with your username and relevent keywords almost always gives me the answers.

Anyone else get these...those that don't use ad filters?

Nope, never seen 'em. Must be a SC thing.

I do love to read also, Bill, but lately have not been able to afford much for leisure, let alone books. What is the "Kindle" you speak of?

take a shot of tequila and chase it with beer.

Only if it's crap tequila. The good stuff should never have its' taste killed by any lesser alcohol.

Personally, I'd much rather be sipping on a good 15 year Dalwhinnie or an even better 17 year Dalmore. Sadly all I have is some Johnny Walker Black label, which is crap to me, but just might do.

Nope. At least in my opinion. Some others may not agree, but I think none of my life would qualify as movie material.

The last year of my life, on the other hand, would translate well into a daytime soap. Not just a few episodes either. The whole damn show.

Here's the pic of the night-maybe if I was a little drunker, you'd see more

I have but three words for you.

Drink. Some. More.

When you're no longer focused only on yourself. When you want to do for that other person, even if you get nothing in return. Your goal in life is to make that other person smile. You can't stand to be apart. The other person's happiness means more to you than your own. You can't imagine living life without them by your side.

That's love.

I agree with this statement whole heartedly!

Wondering if you're in Love? Ask yourself this simple question:
"Why do I Love (insert name here)?"

What did you come up with for an answer?
I honestly hope you couldn't come up with a reason. Love doesn't need a reason. It's something that can't be explained rationally.

If you can explain why you Love someone, it's not Love. It's Like.

Sure, there are many things to Love ABOUT someone, but to be IN Love with someone, well, you just know.

OK, you asked for it.....

Aarrggghhhh!

Mental bleach needed. ASAP!

Now I gotta close the thread. EEEWWWWWW!

From my last vacation in the BVIs.

NICE!

If I didn't have such an awsome girlfriend, you'd have a stalker. Yea, that's what turtle is, but at least I'd admit it...

*Diva runs to change into her plaid skirt and knee-highs*

Hold on a minute. It's that the classic "Catholic School Girl" outfit? That would make me a "Father".

Ewww. No thanks. No altar boys for me.

Skip the outfit. In fact, skip all the clothes!

great pic!!

Thanks! I think some things do get batter with age...

And diet!

I can't remember if I posted this picture or not, but it's one of me that, for once, turned out and looks pretty good. It's the full picture of my avitar.

So let me get this straight - you're upset that she's not covering a full 50% of the bills, and now she wants to shopping with a little extra cash she's got?

This is the woman you're going to marry, right?

What are you going to do when she wants you to buy her a house? Sooner or later she will, and yes, you are buying her a house. The only way it becomes your house is if you stay married, and out live her. You get a divorce - it's her house. You die first - it's her house.

See the big picutre?

Maybe the new clothes aren't that big of a deal.

Usually true, but not always. I'm the anamoly.
With her for 16 years, married for 11. Bought the house almost 6 years ago. Getting divorced, and I have the house.

Of course, I also have no money, because she has the kids...

I've always been about lyrics more than popularity. Every once in a while I get lucky and a great lyrical song gets popular, but then the group tends to water down their music to stay popular, which is a travisty.
Here's a couple:
My newest addiction, Thriving Ivory. The music and lyrics are very moving, and really make you think. Songs create imagery in your mind. If they don't, you don't listen to them again. Thriving Ivory's music creates a different image for me every single time I hear a song. In today's music world, that's pretty unique. Enough, in fact, that their self title debut disk (indy label) is the first full album I've purchased in 15 years, or more. I'm that impressed. Research them and you'll be impressed.

The other that has a similar effect on me is Secondhand Serenade. Very powerful lyrics, delivered subtly. Essentially a one man band with an incredible voice, a story to tell, and the ability to tell it so it hits every listener differently.

And if they're wearing a chunky metal watch (which hopefully doesn't get snagged in my hair)

You could always shave....

But it still might get caught on her zipper...

Bah! Never landed in the corn.

Aaarrgghhhh!

No, really. Beans, yea. Corn, no.

~hitting the PRO circle.

Even a blind squirrel finds the occasional nut...I'm bettin' you still got a cornfield named after ya !

Bah! Never landed in the corn. Did swoop through it once to hit the landing area (grass runway) at Wolf River Skydivers, and that was enough to teach me you NEVER land in corn. That shit hurts.

nice but missing 1 important thing, Helmet!!, no point in having a larger canopy if you don't where a helmet

I do wear a helmet. When I want the camera rolling.

And the canopy, in flight, hitting the PRO circle. Got the canopy (barely) used, and will be changing the color scheme for my Firebolt.

Quote

i love my spectre, i'll certainly be jumping it for a VERY long time....besides, i get more canopy time than the others

Ok, finally found the pics. I'm a simple person, with simple tastes, and a strange sense of humor...

Much easier (and cheaper) to upsize the body.

Thinks I actually looked at his rig. LOL! Where's those pics of mine now...
