    Corona

    Yuengling is good, mass produced domestic beer and much better than Miller or Bud. But it's still generic tasting. I'm suprised you can get it down in VA. you really think it is generic tasting? We have pretty much every beer you could imagine here right outside of DC....if you are ever down this way...check out capital city brewery downtown or rock bottom in arlington...rock bottom is all microbrews and on wednesdays they are all a buck each. Awesome shit!

    Yueng Ling....Best beer on the market...Sam Adams comes in a close second
  3. New information states that the water receded back 1/2 mile prior to the tsunami hitting. That is one hell of a sign that something is wrong! My bet is that most people who saw it let their curiosity get the best of them and just sat there in awe witnessing the recession not knowing what was about to come.
  4. agreed. However, pit bulls lock their jaws when they latch onto something, it is close to impossible to get a pit bull off of you once he bites you due to the brute force that is applied once his jaws are locked.
  5. The problem with Pit bulls is that we are now dealing with generations and generations of inbreeding. The pit bull was originally bred to be a fighting dog. Now add instability due to inbreeding and there is no way to determine a dogs mental health. The owner can do everything right and still have the dog snap.
  6. mine is included in howeowners insurance
  7. We cannot comprehend the death and destruction caused by the tsunami tragedy, the extent of it will be felt for many many years to come by many countries. Truly sad. I am glad to see we are willing to help out in any way possible. We have the means to do so and should do so at any cost. Makes me proud to be an American..... However, I have a big issue with the fact that our country seems to step up to the plate so quickly when others are in need. What about our own people that are suffering? What about the millions of homeless people? What about the god knows how many children that are living in poverty going hungry everyday? What about the people whoms lives were completely ruined by corrupt corporate america? The list can go on and on... Yes, a very large percentage of the people who need help in our country do not deserve it (worthless welfare leeches, etc..). However, there is a certain percentage that do. 35 billion could do an awful lot for people in our country that need help. Our country should not stop helping others in need, but we also shouldn't forget about our own
  8. Tough call...i'm not sure which one i believe is trickier, i am probably leaning towards the wingsuit because i have a feeling luigi probably just lets his canopy fly and waits for jeb to get as relative as possible...could be wrong but the majority of the work seems done by jeb....in regards to landing the canopy, i read somewhere that he has already landed it more than 50 times!!!
  9. Just watched the Jeb and luigi video on the go fast website, crazy shit... Got me thinking..Which do you think requires more skill... flying that vx39 canopy relative to Jeb, or flying the wingsuit relative to Luigi? (yes, i know they both require mad skills, but does one require more than the other???)

    Dead Like Me?

    wow...i dont even buy dvds of movies i have seen or know let alone box sets of tv shows i have never heard of before....impulse buyer are we?
  11. yeah, i know what a mini bar is he wasnt calling from his room when he said that, he was in the casino......thought there was some hidden meaning behind him saying it....just seems weird for him to say "mini bar" to benedict considering probably every room has one...
  12. So I am watching Oceans 11 on tv last night for about the 10th time. There is a part during the robbery that i still cant freakin figure out and it is driving me nuts... Its the part where Brad Pitt is walking through the casino talking to benedict on the cell phone and benedict says "you are near the slot machines" and Brad Pitt responds by saying "Yes, I am even staying in your casino, I have two words for you MINI BAR" what the hell did he mean when he says mini bar???? I have googled this and nothing comes up...I havent seen Oceans 12 yet..did it have anything to do with the sequel????
  13. Roll roll roll the nose
  14. Basically it all comes down to priorities. Balance it all and take a step back to see what is important to you at the end of the day. Like many people have said before, there is more to life than skydiving, as hard as that may seem!
  15. hasnt posted as far as i know but he does use the classifieds on DZ to sell stuff
  16. Wasnt at the concert but i sure as hell got stuck in the traffic from it right there next to the patriot center...my license plate says SKY DVES
  17. I would like to know the same seeing that i jump an older javelin.
  18. I was there 1 week 1/2 after it happened. I had a meeting right there at world financial center. The dust was still in the air, people were still walking around holding up pictures of loved ones. It was the most unreal thing i have ever seen in my life. One of my dickhead coworkers actually asked one of the guys that we were meeting with what they saw that day. Their response was "Do not ever ask me that question again, you will never know what I saw and experienced that day" I remember walking by a clothing store that had all the windows blown out. There was police tape blocking it off but you could clearly look in. You could not see anything in the store because it was completely covered in 1-2 FEET of dust. Completely insane.
  19. A gear check wont prevent that. Main closing flaps come open quite often.
  20. Thanks for the info guys..I'm curious, why do you go a little bit bigger? What does that do from a flight or fitting standpoint?
  21. i wish i could try it on...too bad i am on the east coast and the seller is on the west coast...its a sharp looking suit...
  22. I am getting ready to buy a GTI. The previous owner is 6'1. I am 5'11. Will this be a major issue in the suit fitting right? Should i hold off and find one worn by someone my exact height?
