The NTSB has taken a great interest in seatbelt use on skydiving airplanes. You can think of the NTSB and the FAA as being a sniper team, with the NTSB as spotter and the FAA as shooter. If I was the pilot, I wouldn't want to make myself into a target. Or let some stubborn skydiver who doesn't want to wear a seatbelt do it for me.

They aren't in jail because, for the most part, what they did was legal. The SEC has not provided the protection for the general public that it should, just as the MMS did not act as a public safety watchdog over the BP oil-drilling fiasco.

He's just slowing himself down so his hat won't blow off.

It's probably not paranormal. It's just the crazy guy who lives in your attic. Nothing to worry about. As far as the computer is concerned, power it down, then unplug it, then press the power button. Now it's off until you plug it in again (unless it's a laptop with a battery or it's hooked to some sort of UPS).

Depends on what she'll do. Events are not isolated, it's all tit for tat, if you get my drift.

And now you've put that image in all our minds because we thought you were talking about shoe size and we wanted to brag. I'm going to Billy Vance's NSFW thread and look for an antidote.

I assume this thread is limited to a discussion of the white, starchy, Irish or Idaho potato and that I would be out of line to mention the better tasting and culturally superior sweet potato, baked, split open, and smothered in butter and brown sugar.

4. I've been working all day while you were sitting home with the kids. Why isn't my supper ready?
