  1. Sorry to tell you: all the skydivers/tunnel rats moved to texas when they heard a new tunnel opened. Bummer. My photos My Videos
  2. I'll be jogging around the boneyard again next week. If we have a down day I may go shoot some photos. My photos My Videos
  3. Colonoscopy? I don't know Normiss but, his willingness to talk about it makes me think it was more of a recreational visit, than medical. My photos My Videos
  4. Some very good entertainment....and Kanye. WTF were they thinking? I'm from Long Island and I get very nostalgic about Billy Joel. When I get homesick, I listen to "NYS of Mind." I was pretty impressed with the show. Alicia Keys wrapped it up well with "NY." Paul can still kick some ass (not just for a 70 year old but, for anyone) My photos My Videos
  5. I remember,too. Gary. I capo the 3rd fret. I havent bothered with the lead. I know MOST of the song. I just have to sit and record it...if I can find the time. My plan was to have the music track already recorded and let her sing over it... But, I'd also like to record it live. My photos My Videos
  6. Cool! so now, No Ko can recall the satellite? It's all just games. We've lost the cheat codes. My photos My Videos
  7. That doesn't negate the good advice from oldwomanc6. You never know what tomorrow will bring. I'm not getting the point? My photos My Videos
  8. Thanks for the feedback. I haven't tried to transpose. It's something I may do when I get her to record this though. My photos My Videos
  9. Thanks for the feed back. I understand the video aspect of the music. Its only about a minute long. I'm not too concerned about people hearing this version because this is not how I make a living. If you heard me play around the neighborhood/bonfire etc I'd still hit some burps. I just want to get some comments to encourage her to finish the song. I cant post the complete version without it being completed. My photos My Videos
  10. Hey everyone, I recorded this with my neighbor a few months ago. I used my iPhone voice memo to record it. We were just noodling around and we did mess up but, I think we should practice and finish this song. What say you? My photos My Videos
  11. Helping this man by leaning over to help him up puts your head in the line of the train. 22 seconds is NOT a long time, even if you KNEW it was going to take 22 seconds. The thought of "WTF is going on," measuring your possible actions and outcome, limit the time, severely. But, the problem doesn't start when the man was pushed onto the track. Apparently, there was an altercation that led up to this. If someone could have stepped up , MAYBE it would have been the best time to circumvent this tragedy. Also, a civilization of couch quarterbacks and website heroes. Unless you were there, you have no right to judge. If you are relying on what the news states to collect your facts, you are not only judgmental, you are stupid. (I am judging you by the statements you made without possibly having all the info.) I have been the 1st responder and the one to step-in multiple times. I have also been one who didn't get there in time. there are always too many people talking, after the fact. It's a shame that the man died, but it is no one persons responsibility to put their life in danger to save him. My photos My Videos
  12. I've filmed a lot of tandems. (not a TM) We joke with the students but my favorite is just after the student is strapped up I get the look on my face and say "OH MAN. WE ALMOST FORGOT TO TELL YOU ONE LAST THING!!!" Student: what's that? Me/TM: HAVE FUN! (hi five, knuckles/handshake) I only do stuff like this with Tm's that are solid and students that understand we are joking. My photos My Videos
  13. Whuffos won't know wtf your business is. INDOOR SKYDIVING is a simple name and easy enough for people OUTSIDE the circle of skydivers to find. Euro academy of bodyflight--DBA INDOOR SKYDIVING I always wanted to see "suckhole" for skyventure type with the fans on top or "blowhole" for the Vegas type with fans below. My photos My Videos
  14. That's crazy. I googled that and saw that my sister works there. I didn't even know she moved to arizona. Says she's the best rim jobber in 4 states. My photos My Videos
  15. It would absolutely explain why some people are completely off the deep end, wouldn't it? I mean, I would prefer to think of some people as genetic experiments rather than a products of our society. My photos My Videos
  16. If contact happened, I would expect the the powers to protect from the truth. I mean, when is the right time to tell your kids that the easter bunny doesn't exist. (sorry to those who are just finding out about that now.) My opinion is that if we knew about E.T. life/communication. 'WE' wouldn't know about it until it was too late. It's hard to control people who have hope. So, It's easier to keep them guessing and wondering so, religious/governmental organizations can still make billions of dollars by telling us only what you need to know. If there was contact from other worldly beings and they could not threaten us why would we (the kids) need to know. It would only make us ask questions they couldn't answer. My thought is that life does exist somewhere (else) in this vast universe. It would be a waste of an awfully large amount of space if there wasn't. My photos My Videos
  17. I was supposed to do it last august(2011) but I helped a friend move and blew out my back the day before the trip took place. Still Have to do that route... Good luck My photos My Videos
  18. Dude, that wind was ridiculous. Why didn't the organizers file a notam to keep wind higher then 10 kts out of the airspace? My photos My Videos
  19. Thanks, Squeak. It was a Personal Record. (because it was a first) My photos My Videos
  20. Anybody do it? (or the whole) I gotta tell someone...Finished my 1st (yep Beer is on the way)1/2 in 2H 16m. My goal was 2.5. not bad for not training and coming off an injury. I was completely nervous. (usually I feel prepped for my runs.) I considered the fact that I showed up a win. Then, I beat my goal. It's called the rock and roll (1/2) marathon because I have a feeling I am going to feel like a rock star tomorrow: 100yrs old. LOL Notes: Ran (mostly) continuously. --I walked approx .25 total at a fast enough pace that I was passing some of the slower runners. I hit the wall after the finish line. --Had jamba juice. Got brain freeze. Then, felt dizzy and nauseous for about 2 minutes. LOL DER!! I hit my stride at about 5 miles. --continued until the 10th mile where I walked .05 and about 5 times during the 10 mile. After mile 11. I did not stop. My left knee and foot were cramped but the walks help ease them long enough to finish strong. (for me) My photos My Videos
  21. Man, you really know how to dream big small.Below I had to guide you to change you poor choices. and finally, it sounds like you need an advisor. I'm fairly cheap. I'll guide you for a small fraction of your fortune. My photos My Videos
  22. My son does a lot of parkour. Some of it has a risk of injury. I worry about him. I don't think I could laugh at a video of him injuring himself. But, what if you son was a complete tool? It may be easier to laugh if you thought he was a dipshit... OR What if YOU were a tool...I bet you'd laugh. My photos My Videos
  23. Or read the description on the video itself. My photos My Videos
  24. Ha Ha mine too, my sister was 12 I was 14 the woman was 34. My Mother went ballistic and my Father had a kind of wry smile. So, you had a menage a trio? My photos My Videos
  25. NICE!! I am completely amazed that no one has come up with the obvious answer. The only way to really tell N@, is that you'll have to strip down and hop up on my table. We'll have to do a full check up. My photos My Videos
