  1. september 25 is my 21st birthday september 28 will by my AFF level 1 i wouldn't want to not be able to buy beer for my firsts right? Edited because i am unable to spell beer :)
  2. ooo bible contracdicions! those are always fun! here are some more.... Exodus 20:15 "Thou shalt not steal." Leviticus 19:13 "Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbor, neither rob him." vs Exodus 3:22 "And ye shall spoil the Egyptians." Exodus 12:35-36 "And they spoiled [plundered, NRSV] the Egyptians." Luke 19:29-34 "[Jesus] sent two of his disciples, Saying, Go ye into the village . . . ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither. And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him. . . . And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt? And they said, The Lord hath need of him." Psalm 145:9 "The Lord is good to all." Deuteronomy 32:4 "a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he." vs. Isaiah 45:7 "I make peace and create evil. I the Lord do all these things." See "Out of Context" for more on Isaiah 45:7. Lamentations 3:38 "Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?" Jeremiah 18:11 "Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you." Ezekiel 20:25,26 "I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live. And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all that openeth the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am the Lord." II Kings 8:26 "Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign." vs. II Chronicles 22:2 "Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign." One could still argue that the bible is gods word recorded by man and because of that flawed but if you claim that you are freely admiting your belife system is based on a flawed book.... 4 years catholic highschool 3 years of western religions in college and still going.

    Your favorite band

    i've been listening to alot of AFI latly.. if you want to check out a few songs try "god called in sick" and "total immortal"
  8. i ment on just a normal jump on a demo i could understand it. would it be like arguing that a bike that peddled into your car should be held responsible? even if you did everything right your still held accountable?
  9. not sure if this is helpful but the same thing happened to my girlfriend who was an avid diver before it happened. at this point she can barily get into a plane without a feeling that she calls "like someone has a tight rope around your chest" that makes it hard to breath. needless to say after that see realized her diving days are done.
  10. this may be a dumb question.. but if you planning on landing in a certain spot and someone walks infront of you at the last minute why are you liable and not them?
  11. hmm good point i never considered the fact a few dz's might ask employees to flood the comment section with great reviews for them... i guess i trust people alittle to much ;-)
  12. When i decided i wanted to start skydiving (going on my first AFF soon) i had no idea where wanted to take it as i only had one friend who'd ever done a jump before. There are about 5 DZs within 90 min of me i pretty much ignored all the advertiseing and read peoples reviews on this site. /shrug i'd hope that others who consider it would do the same and not be tricked my a marketing ploy.
  13. three computers here running 3 different OS's one using XP pro one running SUSE linuX and the other FreeBSD
  14. I'm still new here hope you guys don't mind me weighing in on this topic... i watched BFC when it was in theaters and decided to do some reseach on the information in MM's films since i knew that last one he made was so grossly inaccurate that he was disqualified from the oscars. onces again the saying proved true.. there are lies damn lies and statiscis. again there were some creative edited (explained at http://www.hardylaw.net/Truth_About_Bowling.html) but not nearly as much as i his last movies. the movie itself i thought was decent because of its description of hte american media fostering a sense of fear in the culter to drive consumerism. but other than that i found it unconvinceing if you are pro-guncontrol you'll support the message if your not you'll see the slight bluring of hte truths and reject it. either way MM is a jerk for how he treated an very sick charlton heston.
  15. Thanks for all your suggustions! I talked with the instructors over at the Dropzone i'll be going to and they suggested i take the AFF course once i explained that it is something i'd like to continue with and that i've been racing motorcyles for awhile now. Thanks for the suggestion on getting JUMP! i just ordered a copy to give me something to read while i'm waiting to go.
