  1. I've been a rigger since 1972 and I've never enforced the bottle (Don Julio Reposada) or beer rule. I've seen it carried way out of hand lot's of times. I consider it a gratuity for the rigger and/or fellow jumpers. And a measure of the other individuals' personality. “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

    Absinthe

    Had some homemade Absinthe in FL a few years back, my girlfriend had a friend that made it. Interesting buzz, but I never overdosed on it. Made the sex veeeeeery interesting. “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him. Stanislaw Jerzy Lec quotes (Polish writer, poet and satirist 1906-1966)
  3. Howdy folks, Got a quick question for all you Vietnam era vets or world travelers. Some friends of mine are going to Thailand on vacation and I asked them to pick up a few bottles of Mekong Whiskey, they said of course but included this caution: "Also, if it is not drunk within a few months, it becomes poisonous. We were going to drink the last of ours when the Kiwi's were here & she said if it's more than a year old, you'll either die or go blind if you drink it!! It ferments badly!" Has anyone else heard of this? Yes I know we're talking Thailand, no USDA, FDA etc.
  4. What a poser. I had to use a ball-point pen spring, a gum wraper and a paperclip. Damn, and to think I call myself a rigger. I am humbled. “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him. Stanislaw Jerzy Lec quotes (Polish writer, poet and satirist 1906-1966)

    Howdy Sunshine, Just a little advice about the massaging shower head... turn the water pressure down a little, unless you're made of iron. “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

  7. I saw it. Especially the part where the weird guy said he had a parachute not open at 15,000ft and had to open it with a pen knife.... Yup, I had to do that once myself. B.S. M.S. P.H.D. Actually, it was a Swiss Army Knife. Phhffft. “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

  10. Did anyone else have the misfortune to sit through the drivel on Law And Order CI (criminal intent) tonight? The plot? revolved around off track betting, computer geeks/programmers, skydivers and the "mob". This kind of guilt through association pap had me ready to pitch the closest hard object through the television screen. Burns my ass more than a 3 foot high flame. One of the lines... "you show a delayed fear response". reply, "If you panic you die". WTF? “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

  12. Don't do it. I agree Sunny, I tried phone sex ONCE and all I got out of it was a damn ear infection. “The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him. Stanislaw Jerzy Lec quotes (Polish writer, poet and satirist 1906-1966)

  14. How about a simple: "F**k you very much." As long as you deliver it with a sincere? smile and an even voice, most people get the "I just didn't hear that, did I?" look.
