  1. A notorized, signed letter from her parents stating it is ok for you to cross the border with he should be fine. She'll also need a passport or birth certificate. My mom takes my kids up to Canada for a week or two vacation in the summer. Getting the letter notorized is important and it is what the border guards have told us to do. A letter/proof of insurance is also a good idea incase she gets hurt
  2. I buy bandwidth in big chunks Verio DS-3 (45mbps) $4500/month Sprint DS-3 (45mbps) $4500/month WilTel OC-3 (155mbps) $7500/month I sell Residential DSL in Massachusetts, USA ADSL 3.0/768 $39.99 I buy it wholesale from Verizon for $28.95, sucky margins but somebody has to do it
  3. Nope, I would sell them on eBay as a collectors set, super rare, like new in open box for a rediculous amount of money. Come to think of it, I wonder if I could carve a womans face into my waffle iron and make some money. Would that buy me a ticket straight to hell?
  4. Mary Magdelene is not the same The Virgin Mary (Mother of God). Mary Magdelene is either a whore or the wife of Jesus depending on which books you read. The Virgin Mary (aka Mary, Mother of God) is a different woman
  5. Dave, you didn't read your own agreement? Though shall not link directly to a video from another website
  6. Maybe that would work better. Cut the 3-ring loop on the risers if there is a greater than X G force for Y seconds.
  7. Would is make sense for people jumping tiny mains (21 sq foot for example) to have breakable risers? The fatality in AZ was caused by high G forces and the inability to cut away. What if the risers were weakened and designed to fail at a 500 lbs of force (200 lb person, 5 Gs = 500 lb force on each riser). If one of the risers broke, the spin would stop and the jumper would have been able to recover, cut away and deploy their 'landing main'. Just a thought, not for normal jumping but for the 3 chute jumps involving a tiny main that will be cut away so a landable main can be deployed.
  8. Slackware Linux which is what I started using 11 years ago (has it been that long, damn) And Redhat Linux which is what I use now Although I'm really an OS X guy, that is what is on my desktop
  9. The *only* correct question to ask two sisters is 'How YOU doin'
  10. If someone loses altitude awareness and they have a Cypress they are grounded for 30 days. If someone loses altitude awareness without a Cypress they are grounded FOREVER!.
  11. I was going to sell them to PD & Mirage ;) Just so we don't sell the same list to the same people we'll be fine I bet you will see less failures now that I have the DNS stuff fixed.
  12. Dave, You can stop the registration requirements if you want, I've rate-limited the site now so it won't melt the network the next time 9k people download a vid.
  13. www.skydivingmovies.com is not on a dynamic IP. It is running its own SMTP server for delivery. I suppose I could relay it through my smart host but that isn't really necessary. The PTR record didn't exist until about 5 minutes ago. That was probably the largest problem.
  14. OOOOOPS My bad. That is all fixed now www.skydivingmovies.com -> sdm.crocker.com -> 204.97.12.49 -> sdm.crocker.com now I didn't have a PTR record, you'd think that after doing this for 10 years I would remember that part. www.skydivingmovies.com. 86400 IN CNAME sdm.crocker.com. sdm.crocker.com. 600 IN A 204.97.12.49 49.12.97.204.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN PTR sdm.crocker.com.

    Confusion

    Yep, I'm on Oxycoton (sp?) First is makes me loopy, then I sleep for an hour, then my mind starts racing. I start engineering a VoIP solution for my company, buying gateways, routers, softswitches, then I jump to peanut butter and how it must feel weird between my toes. Then I'm off inventoring the refridgerator trying to figure out what I need to buy. Is there enough gas in the truck? Good thing I pre bought oil, prices are going up. I need to change the oil in the lawn mower. I wonder when it is going to snow out. The leaves look pretty. Damn leaf peepers slowing me down when I'm late for work. work.. I wonder if I need to get SS7 a-links from Verizon of if I could buy them from a SS7 hub provider. VoIP... and I just loop this in my head. All this is going at about 7 billion miles an hour. Then I fall asleep, then my wife comes and wakes me up. I don't like Oxycoton but it makes the pain go away. which is a good thing.
  16. Great, now my wife is asking why I'm laughing. Um, baby seal, ahahhaha cub... hAHAHAHAHAHAHa. My wife doesn't have your sense of humor For some reason I just busted a nut laughing, and that is NOT a good thing in my current condition.
  17. The $20 you have in your pocket probably came from an ATM which can track the serial number and your bank card. Walmart can use a 'frequent shopper' discount card to track the information as well. The serial number/mylar strip in the $20 was read as you walked into the store. And don't forget RFID tag that was embedded into your skull when you were born. You would be amazed at how much information you already have in databases. The really scary part is when the databases start getting linked in the name of 'homeland security'. Maybe I should just get the barcode tatooed on my forehead now.
  18. Of course you did, right after you developed it and realized you cut off the top.
  19. So, for the example script name [file1] [file2] you could do this #!/bin/bash cp $1 ~/backup/$2 If you need error checking then something like #!/bin/bash if [ -f $1 ]; then cp $1 ~/backup/$2; else echo "File $1 not found"; fi
  20. spectre:~ matthewcrocker$ cat - > myscript #!/bin/bash (mkdir -p ~/backup) && (cp myls ~/backup/myls) spectre:~ matthewcrocker$ chmod 700 myscript The && stuff makes sure the cp only runs if the mkdir command completed successfully
  21. Been there, bought the T-shirt. Divorce, went our seperate ways, in a *much* better place right now. I haven't seen her since the court house (4 years ago)
  22. Just make sure you freeze the body fully before you introduce Mr. Wood Chipper. You want the chipper to make a sharp cracking sound, not a squishy/mushy sound while chewing through the body. Personally, I prefer some quick lime and a deep hole.
  23. I met my step son when he was 2 going on 35. One of the cutest things he would do was call my parachute a 'parent-chute'. That and stuffing a towel in his backback and jumping off the stairs. I now have a 3 month old little girl. She has me wrapped around her little finger. I melt when she coos. I can sit and stare at her for hours on end. Life is good
  24. Jeffrey, What you fail to understand is they HAVE to let the MURDERERS out to make room for the DRUG DEALERS!.
