    I need HELP

    No "boobies" option! Didn't vote. I don't wear clothes with logos on them, so it doesn't matter to me, and I don't presume to be a judge of what other people like.
  2. It eliminates all the expense, manpower, logistics and security risk of moving large numbers of prisoners from jails to courthouses every day.
  3. "Normal Touch and Go Landing?" "Moved: Normal Touch and Go Landing?" The thread was moved from the Bonfire, back to the Bonfire again, right above it's previous position. Go figure!
  4. These answers are interesting... On your first skydive, you're facing freefall and potential death for the very first time, and doing it with unfamiliar equipment. That's understandably scary as hell. On your first BASE jump, presumably, you're already an experienced skydiver who is used to falling through the sky, accepts the risk of death, and is familiar and comfortable with the gear. So it would seem that these factors would mitigate the fear on a 1st BASE jump. The only new aspect is the reduced altitude, proximity to objects, and zero launch speed. So for BASE to still be scarier, despite all those advantages of exposure to previous skydiving experience, that really seems to say something about how comfortable we get with wide open skies and plenty of altitude!
  5. How do we know those eyes weren't digitally faked?

  6. Well, since Kermit was modeled after frogs, you shouldn't be surprised that some frogs look like Kermit... What will they think of next? "Turtle found that looks like Yertle!" "Skunk found that looks like Pepe LePew!" "Lizard found that looks like the Geico commercial character!"
