Hey, go for your homestead. Actually, throw away the notion of the car. Keep your expenses within your income. Keep going with what you got and maintain it. Pour your excess into debt #1, retirement and investments.. invest in your future... Stay within your means. Play it safe. Be comfortable. Take care of yourself. That's it. You're always the starter in your own life!

Fantastic Derek! When one suffers trauma, the first responder has a very powerful effect on the outcome. The actions of the first responder is often acute care and psychological. Often, the person experiencing extreme trauma regresses to the extent that they call for their parents or their mate. The moment a hero swoops in, cradles them and tells them everything will be okay, amazing things happen... You're always the starter in your own life!

Have you ever...? Put cereal in the refrigerator... Put milk in the cupboard… Have you ever cut off a cop... Gone through a drivethru, gotten your meal and drove off without your drinks, or something missing... Suddenly dropped your glass at a party after just a few drinks… Have you ever put something in the microwave for a few minutes and destroyed it with many minutes... Have you ever printed something 100 times by accident and couldn’t stop it so you turned the printer off, only for it to keep printing when you turned the printer back on… Have you ever bought something cheap, drove away, and then realized you were shorted in your change... Have you ever been on a long drive, had to pee, thought, “I don’t want to stop here;” then kept driving until you had to pee like a racehorse and had nowhere to pull over.. or, got caught in a traffic jam… Have you ever been to a prominent party, and had a nose nugget perched on your nostril, or your fly undone, or a hole in your pants, and had a blast until, only, at the end of the party, someone finally tells you about it… Have you ever withdrawn more money then you had from your ATM, stared at the receipt like you were actually going to do something about it, or were actually going to mathematically figure it out, then said, “phuckit” and spent it as intended.. (partying)… Have you ever said something wrong, realized your mistake, then, in a feeble attempt to redeem yourself, said something that turned out to be even worse… Have you ever instructed someone to do something you assumed they knew how to do, only to find it completely phucked up because you didn’t give them explicit instructions… Have you ever gotten a gift in a room full of people, then voiced your displeasure in the company of the person who gave you the gift… Have you ever waited in line for a long time, only to arrive at the register short of money, and had to walk by everyone who waited for you to put items back, or pretend not to be embarrassed as the store person dramatically removed selections at your nodding… Have you ever had your eye on someone at a party, then, after nature called you away for #2, opened the bathroom door only to find that person waiting to use the toilet… ever done that?

Day-am, that be a "Pimp My Ride" vehicle (show on MTV for the unfamiliar.) Heck, this could lead to additional accoutrements.. stereo, moonroof, velvet velour (or Corinthian leather), a minicam attached to an LCD tv & digital camera to view and take pictures of the driver & passengers, hood ornament, mufflers (with fake sound effects,) undercarriage neon lights, truck horn, radar detector, GPS, tinted windows, spinners, high beam adjusting rearview mirror, marble gear shifter and leather driving gloves. You'll have girls and guys wanting to be seen in that machine. ... uh, I don't think Crosskeys has anything to match your Monster Cart... But.. If this catches on.. Day-am.

Hey! That chick Roberta is in MY HOUSE! How the hell'd she get into my house.. and who took those photographs of her in my house.. where the hell was I!! Someone's going to pay for that... let me check my security cameras and I'll be right back... You're always the starter in your own life!

Hooknswoop wins the Prize! True, the example they show has the two outboard cups down and the center one up. When it's presented for one to solve, they make the solution impossible by presenting the two outboard cups up, and the center one down--the only solution you can achieve is all 3 cups down--no combination from that starting configuration will allow all 3 cups up.

Thank you sdctlc, for directing my attention to a wicked vid... despite the fu. But, more importantly, Thank You! Pilot Dave for making SkydivingMovies.com possible. Without your great repository of aerial adventure, the internet would be a vast oasis of empty darkness, longing for the sun, (i.e., Skydivingmovies.com kicks ASS!) Maybe.. one day, I too can make a contribution as worthy as yours... one day.. You're always the starter in your own life!

Thanks. I needed that You're always the starter in your own life!

Those dastardly canines stealing your sleep! Revenge! Well, if you had access to their apartment turn the valve off to their sink.. or their toilet. Let the games begin... put vasoline on their doorknob... for a day or two, subscribe their phone number to a wake up call service.. remove the batteries from their remote... put green food dye in their milk ... buy their favorite 6-pack of beer (or soda), drain several from the bottom, fill with Creme Soda, etc., (or Tomato juice, but that might tip 'em off) seal it with a swatch of Saran Wrap (to cover the hole) on silver duct tap, reconnect the pastic rings, chill and serve... buy some chocolate peanut butter, mix it good, then leave a dab somewhere conspicuous, or put some on some underwear and leave it on their door... then make your speedboat getaway!

Thanks Rhino for bringing the muscleheads out. I won't add to any discussion of strength and fitness other then to say these critical factors: workload, rest periods, periodicity, VO2 uptake, target rate, rubber bands, adequate sleep, P.E.R., glycemic index & good nutrition (supplementation.) If you know what they all are, you know what I'm talking about. Tomorrow was going to be my rest day but all you S.O.B.s have now motivated me to get out and workout.. what I'll do I haven't decided.. I kilted myself moving steel plates earlier in the week...probably more cardio. Thanks all! You're always the starter in your own life!

Q. Why do you want to be a sniper? A. On the winds of war where the fires burn, there’s an enemy soldier planting an IED; there’s an enemy soldier reconnoitering positions; there’s an enemy soldier firing on friendlies from concealed positions atop towers and buildings. At that moment of truth, when life and death hang in the balance, the lives of my fellow Marines may depend solely on me. My fellow Marines are the purpose for my existence, though they may not know me, nor I them, or know where, I am. I move out on call, for purpose hath no fear, for without my fellow Marines, I am nothing. I move like a phantom in the night, like a jaguar in the day, to employ my surgical marksmanship for the preservation of my fellow Marines, for the continuance of the Mission. There is no higher calling, there is no higher purpose. In an instant, the IED is neutralized; in an instant, the probe is finished; in an instant, the threat is neutralized. To thine enemies, I am Harm’s Way, don’t tread near me, I am unseen, unheard and deadly. That’s why I want to be a sniper. Any questions? --for my brother, 1st Sgt. Amos Dias, former Instructor, Marine Corps Sniper School. R.I.P. Corporal Lima, C Co. 2nd Plt. 2nd Recon Bn. You're always the starter in your own life!

As a child watching the news reports of combat in Vietnam to a young adult hearing stories from vets, the military wasn't of real interest to me. But, war seemed like an adventure. Then one day I spoke to a Marine recruiter, GySgt, dual cool (jump & scuba).. Recon. Suddenly I wanted to hold a rifle and guard the line. That's where I eventually ended up, 2nd Recon. Fortunately, I spent 2 1/2 years overseas in 25 countries on 5 continents. I was very lucky. I got to live the adventure for 4 years, but never went to war. Shortly after leaving I was living on my own, working full-time and attending college full-time. The adventure was definitely over. You're always the starter in your own life!

In regards to canopy collisions (where possible) shout. The woman's landing accident probably tugged on some survivor's guilt you have from your friends tragic accident. It's not uncommon. You don't want anything bad to happen to people around you, you want to save them. It's a form of post-traumatic disorder. An EMT friend of mind responded to a helicopter crash on a damp, moonlit night. Whenever one comes along, it evokes terrible memories. Sounds like you never really talked out how you felt about the tragedy. It takes a lot of that, or, even longer, the passage of time. You're always the starter in your own life!

I'll roast the Frenchy. With his aerodynamically sculpted balding head and his Racer X goggles, he looks like Skeletor on Prozac. Few people inspire such words as "ubiquitous" in the number of postings he pops up on... even if his contribution contains fewer words then syllables in "ubiquitous." I don't know of many rumors regarding the Frenchster, but I did read that he desires intimate contact with many of the ladies on dropzone.com. Well, there he goes again trying to get it all for himself. Should we meet I'll be sure to bring some top shelf Absinthe... and pour it myself. Cheers! You're always the starter in your own life!

Thanks!! I'm ordering my tape today! When I was in the Corp one of our Jody songs was: "Don't let your dingle dangle dangle in the dirt, pick up your dingle dangle put it in your shirt; Don't let your dingle dangle dangle on the ground, pick up your dingle dangle swing it all around; Don't let your dingle dangle smack you in the eye, pick up your dingle dangle wear it like a tie."

Kurosawa, wow! What an awesome director! Astute moviegoers know that motion picture events usually come from exceptional directors--ones who portray events as moving portraits. From all the films mentioned above who would guess that he shot the Japanese sequences of "Tora, Tora, Tora." Although "Runaway Train" was based on a story by Kurosawa and directed by a Russian, it's so much better then the movie trailer (which is probably why it fared so-so at the box office. http://videodetective.com/home.asp?PublishedID=1414 You're always the starter in your own life!

(Speaking with heavy Japanese accent) Hiyata: In my land, Samurai Master Swordsman. Samurai live by Bushido, The Warrior's Code. Samurai protect the Emperor. But, in the darkness, lie the Ninja--the Stealthy Assasin. Ninja kill a thousand different ways while Samurai kill with just sword or short sword. At nightclub, Samurai dance to show his manliness. Samurai awkward to rhythym of music. Ninja dances to beat, does hip thrusts for the ladies. Samurai "make love;" Ninja "phuck." Samurai sit down in restaurant. Ninja use drive thru. Samurai kill fly with sword. Ninja just kill fly. Samurai read instruction. Ninja just get 'r done. Samurai tie shoe. Ninja use slip on. Samurai wear boxers. Ninja goes commando. Samurai faithful to one abstinent wife. Ninja, orgy lover who doesn't know who to thank. At the beach, Ninja is Tan Man while Samurai is Lotion Boy. Ninja say, "I am Tan Man and this is my partner, Lotion Boy." "Lotion Boy," Ninja says to Samurai, "Maybe, one day, you too can be Tan Man." You're always the starter in your own life!

There is a lot of bullshit in the world... and people shit too! You have to let it go though. If all else fails, try, try a gun! No, only kidding. But it does help if one is easily amused.
