  1. Yea, I think it's still a system. And the point of the system is to punish people for their actions and to deter others from those same actions. By its very nature, it's an adversarial setup. Both sides get the chance to appear before a tribunal and tell their side. When I fought those tickets, I had a lawyer on my side and the cop on the other, and I won. I guess I see a difference between getting a ticket for going 50 in a 35 zone, nowhere near any school or pedestrian area, and going 90 in a 45 and causing an accident. I can't say whether I'd fight it because I've never been in that situation. I find that when I make assumptions about how I'll behave in certain situations, I'm sometimes wrong. Sometimes for the better, and sometimes for the worse. But that doesn't negate the fact that there is a system, and there is a way to navigate through it. The beauty of it is that it doesn't assume either side is right. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

  2. I have fought some tickets, and got out of them. A friend of mine who is a lawyer in town majorly hooked me up. I went through a bad period where I got 4 tickets in 2 months, in my home town. Just was late to work and got caught. I didn't feel bad about speeding, and I wasn't in a position to hurt anyone. I don't really have any strong opinions on the traffic system, and I don't think it's really corrupt. I just think it's a system. And if you can get around it (like I did), then you've successfully navigated the system. These days, I'd probably just accept the ticket. I haven't had one in a while, and I don't think it would really hurt my insurance that much. It would be more trouble than it's worth to fight it.

  3. Well, I think they tried to do a linked exit, but it didn't work out. There is inside video, but no stills. On second thought, I don't think I WANT to qualify for an SCR ceremony. Beer tends to dry my hair out. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  4. Dude, we just did an 8-way hybrid at Palatka that qualifies.
  5. Not strip club. Think wine bar. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  6. I used to have 600-800 dollar nights cocktailing. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

  8. *bump* I like these threads. They make me smile. Good news: my cousin, a recovering addict, is doing amazing in his rehab school, and he's been clean for a year. He recently expressed interest in skydiving. So I'm getting my AFF rating to help certify him. And some wonderful friends are stepping up to help me out. Life is good.

  9. sorry GUYS? What about sorry BRIE? I'm the one who gets to squeeze them anyway. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  10. I agree! Or slathering on SPF 50 so you don't get tan. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  11. Are tan lines sexy? "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  12. check out my post above.
  13. I should have specified being addicted to substances like alcohol and drugs. Being addicted to being high on life is definitely a plus. Of course, my standards are irrelevant because I'm already married. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

  14. This was brought up in another thread. If you have "standards" for dating someone, what are they? I've always made it a point not to have "standards" except for being nonviolent, no addictions, etc. (Basically nonabusive types) I've found it knocks a lot of cool people out of the dating pool.

  15. It has been my experience that as soon as you stop looking, someone wonderful will fall into your lap. Maybe you could try it. Also, I've never understood having "standards." I have found that when guys have "standards," it means that they're only really looking for a certain type of girl. Which completely negates the point of dating in the first place: to try out different types of people to see which fits best. If you're only looking for a small, sweet, blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl who does 200 jumps or more per year, doesn't drink, and plays the hokey-pokey on Thursday nights, it's no wonder you feel like the dating market is a little sparse.

  16. Start calling the deans. Tell them you couldn't get anyone else on the phone, and you have some complaints about the system. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  17. Okay girls, I'm totally planning on being at the party in PJs this Saturday. I'll be the one hot pink with funny slippers.

  19. Aren't there some classes you could take that would count toward nursing or medical school? It seems like they would overlap..... Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie
  20. Exactly! Lots of Boobs, cheap-ass jumps, and champagne and chocolate! I was thinking we should turn the party into a slumber party. Pajama contest? Pillow fight?

  21. Thank you so much Clay!
  22. Hi All, I'm graduating from law school in December, and I've just started the job search. I'm looking for advice, and maybe a few connections. My husband and I are looking to move to the Atlanta or Chattanooga area. I'm sending out my first packets (with resume, cover letter, writing samples) on Monday. I know some of you are involved in HR. What advice would you give? How soon should I follow up my resume with a phone call? What should I emphasize?
