  1. I concur. That post just gave me a headache. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  2. So where you jumping in TX? It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  3. Catamaran. Yes, and only 21'. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  4. I wonder, is there any question as to what this crowd will be spending those tax rebates on this year. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  5. When I quit sailing every weekend and took up skydiving I would piss-n-moan when the proerty taxes were due. My sailing friends told me the same thing, "quit counting." I haven't sailed in three yrs but keep the boat because I know I will again. Oh, and you can tell by my forum name that it wasn't a 300K boat. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.

  7. Already posted on our local forum. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  8. Don't blame you. Had to pop my wifes at PHX leaving Eloy. They fertilized last day we there and the machine picked up the nitrogen on hers. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.

  10. Last time somebody asked me to run an errand and make a few bucks I spent time in a Mexican prison. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  11. The one on my Van is DOOOR. Great minds.......
  12. The one on my rigid frame chopper says, DOOR. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  13. Carl Hiaasen's books are of a similar flavor and also very funny. Reading these two author's books make me wonder why anyone would travel to Florida. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  14. So, there I was, dirt diving a jump in Dallas this last weekend. One of the jumpers asked me where I was from and I said McPherson, KS. "Oh," he says, "I used to live in KC." I asked him if he new Jimmy Coiner. He says, "No." His head instantly exploded. What could I do, I just walked to the corner and puked. Let the games begin. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  15. QuoteI won't be smarmy and smug by stating that I "can't believe this didn't make the lists here", but I really love Christopher Moore's books.[/rep] I started to list him but haven't read enough yet to decide if he'll be a favorite. I think I started on his books after reading a previous post by you. He definitely can make you laugh. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  16. Dave Robicheaux series by James Lee Burke Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn Jack Reacher series by Lee Child And for those I don't want to think I just want to laugh phases: Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  17. The video looked like they lived in a single wide mobile home so most likely not. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  18. I saw the BF's interview on the news yesterday and he claimed she had some phobia of seeing her family. He'd beg her to come out and she'd say, "maybe tomorrow." In another interview a local was asked why nobody tried to help her and he indicated that no one knew she still lived there. Oh, and the BF also said that when she got out of the hospital, he'd be there to take care of her. Hmm, wonder how that will work out next time. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  19. Correct. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  20. I bet Randy will be there as Fri is his usual day to jump. We jumped with him in November. TO bad I can't make it both weekends. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  21. QuoteI wonder how many people started jumping back then, hurt themselves, and never returned to the sport because of it? reply] Took me 20+ years to finally go back after tearing up an ankle under an old round. I jump today with guys that were at that dz back in the early 80's though that never had an injury, or at least they say, under a round. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  22. Don't take this the wrong way because I only know you by your posts, but when I clicked on the link I was fully expecting a pump of the Swedish type. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  23. A provider or supplier can charge however much they want, but if they contract with the ins. carrier they will take a hefty writeoff. Charging higher does serve a purpose though. It establishes customary charges for an area which may give them a raise next year. I can remember when TNS units were a couple grand. At the time it was new technology. Now ins. carriers allow around $330-350 and the units can be purchased for less than $75. What I think is a load of crap is ins. carriers let suppliers rent them to patients for $100 a month when one months charge will buy one. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  24. I'd sure hate to spot that load. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  25. How about Larry the Cableguy. You're on an entrance ramp to a busy freeway trying to find an open slot and hear, "Merge left, Git r done." It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
