  1. I watched a friend get dumped on her backside landing a Raven 150-ish. This canopy was loaded at approximately 1:1. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  2. I think your tin foil hat might be a bit too tight. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  3. If that's the case then shouldn't you wait a bit before you criticize this particular project? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  4. So, you don't like Arnie, we get that. Now, can you answer John's question? If he fills in the real pot holes and actively improves the roads then what's the problem? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  5. Racist? You're kidding, right? She was denied membership because she's not a US Citizen, one of the requirements for membership. Explain to me how a group standing by their rules makes them racist, please. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  6. HA! I said that the other day and nobody got it. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  7. I think you missed the point. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  8. Ya gotta love this particular line of thought, if you can't help them all you shouldn't help any. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  9. Hardly. These guys are assholes and should be prosecuted, no question, but they're hardly responsible for the deaths of young Americans. Terrorist assholes get 100% of the credit for that. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  10. Me too, and like Mr. Trump I'd like to see them just a few feet taller. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  11. Cristel, enjoy your new speed limit: (OK, it's not law -yet- but it will be interesting, I think, to watch this one play out) http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,12389-1610994,00.html - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  12. Sheesh. Find a new instructor. That's just plain scary. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  13. I don't know what it is about that stuff, but it doesn't agree with me at all. I took it on an empty stomach, a full stomach, with plenty of water, without plenty of water, morning, noon, and night, and while it certainly did dull the pain (and put me on my ass) it brought me just to the brink of vomiting every time. Terrible drug in my opinion. I went back and asked the dentist for something else, anything else. Chelle, I hope things work out better for you than they did for me. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  14. You're subjected to the will of the minority? Somebody forced you to go where people smoke? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  15. I've personally been witness to the incidents that have lead to two fatalities, one skydiving one not (but still on the dropzone) and have said goodbye to more than one good friend made in this sport. Plain and simple, it's terrible and I wish the experience on no one. A sense of nobility? Hardly. Somber, solemn? You bet. Again, there is a dark side to this sport and I wish it upon no one. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  16. He never said that. As a matter of fact, what he did say was that both he and you had the same information. However, Ron, having served, likely has more perspective on what's REALLY happening in a firefight. The skydiving anology has been brought up several times and I think it's a good one. What part do you take issue with? What does foreign policy have to do with this marine's guilt or innocence? That question is absolutely tasteless. You should be ashamed of yourself. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  17. It's all about risk vs. reward. If you're willing to take the risk and things work out you'll likely be set, on the other hand . . . Risk vs. Reward. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  18. you don't see the possibility that even a trained driver can get drunk and do something stupid? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  19. > taking a gun into a bar is clearly irresponsible. No. Carrying a gun while under the influence is clearly irresponsible. There's a difference. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  20. Which law is it that keeps the thugs from carrying guns? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  21. And that would make his post what? Come on class, everybody say it with me . . . - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  22. Do I look like I give a fsck. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  23. *sigh* - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  24. In greater than 99% of the cases it does mean that they're going to jump it. I've seen that firsthand. "I'm not going to jump it until I'm ready", 3 weeks later he was jumping it and absolutely terrified of it. I don't know if this guy jumps at all anymore. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  25. I recently sold a Crossfire 2 here on dz.com and turned down two sellers due to their lack of experience. It took a bit longer to sell it, of course, but I feel better knowing that it went to someone with 600 jumps and not someone with 100 or 200. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends.
