Watch me make an ass of myself on CNBC at around 8:50AM EST. Should be... Intriguing. In case you ever wondered what an interview done on no sleep looks like. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Lived next door to her from 2003 to 2005. She had a little yappy dog. This was in Chelsea, NYC. It's always fun to be wearing running clothing at 6am to go for a run and out of the apartment next to you comes Lenny Kravitz in full garb. She was always very sweet, always seemed a little taken aback by what was happening to her. Always like she never believed it. And insofar as her claim of still being a virgin? She was sleeping with LENNY F'ING KRAVITZ. The man, when waiting for the elevator, didn't look frustrated, is all I gotta say. Oh, and she's quite pretty, if that's what you meant... _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

PM me - I took 100 CEO's skydiving during the summer of 2000 as a PR stunt - It was my first ever tandem - Everyone had a blast, we made all the business magazines, and from a team-building perspective, it was truly spectacular. The irony is, now that I'm a skydiver, I can see that the articles written were 100% completely factually inaccurate - but still fun as hell to do. Here's the Business Week article on it. Happy to share more info with you to help out. Cheers, -Peter _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

It's wild to watch. Safe for work... Some guy gets tossed into the air, deploys, and floats to earth. Anyone know when/where it was done? http://www.wimp.com/airlaunch/ _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

I'm not about getting into fights, and I've also never jumped X-keys, (hoping to check it out this summer,) but when you start talking about reputations, then you invite replies from people who are there. I learned at the Ranch last summer. I'm a low-timer, with under a hundred jumps. I've never felt anything but safe and taken care of at the Ranch. I can ask anyone a question, get a straight-up answer, and feel totally ok that they're giving me class A information on which I can rely. The guys who got me to my A license were spectacular, and from then on, every question I've had has been answered not only by someone who listens and gives an honest opinion, but more often than not by numerous people there who happened to overhear and want to provide advice and insight. I've never once felt unsafe or talked-down to. In fact, there have been two times I can recall when I debated jumping in what I thought were relatively calm winds, and someone with many, many more jumps would come over and watch a landing with me, pointing out various things I didn't know to look for, which would keep me on the ground, and probably keep me from getting hurt. I'm not saying who's better or who's worse, but when you come out and say that the reputation says they're generally less cautious, I have to comment that I've yet to see that , and feel completely safe jumping there. My .02, take it for what it's worth to you. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

I love getting the chance to do this... [08:59] [name deleted]: Frank was annoyed that he couldn't come with you and J, he said J invited him [09:02] pshankman: It's going to pour. Tell him that he wouldn't want to go - you fall faster than the raindrops, and they're pointy on the top - hence the reason they're round on the bottom - nature's way of protecting people on the ground. When you fall faster than them, you wind up impaling the pointy parts into your skin, and they have to be removed with tweezers on the ground. It freaking HURTS. [09:02] pshankman: I'm not jumping because of that this weekend. If J and Frank want to go, it's up to them. But they leave marks where they impale, and it's NOT fun. Some people are allergic to the drops, as well, and the raindrops make their arms swell up. Not worth jumping in the rain for that reason. [09:03] pshankman: But I'd like to see his play, when it opens! Just let me know when. [09:04] [name deleted]: wait [09:05] [name deleted]: you have to get raindrops tweezed out of your skin [09:05] [name deleted]: you can't be serious _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

I just listened to the extended version of "Total Eclipse of the Heart" - Haven't heard this song in years. Is this verse, in your opinion, sad, or hopeful? Not the song as a whole, but this verse, which, for some reason, was left out of the "radio edit." Every now and then I know you'll never be the boy you always wanted to be Turn around, Every now then I know you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am Turn around, Every now and then I know there's no one in the universe as magical and wondrous as you Turn around, Every now and then I know there's nothing any better and there's nothing that I just wouldn't do Turn around bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart Turn around bright eyes, Every now and then I fall apart What do you think? I never thought about it before until I just happened to hear this version tonight... I'm mixed on it... Either way, still a kick-ass song. (Written by Meat Loaf, by the way...) _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

As someone who does 150k miles a year in the air for work, I can tell you that these things have saved my sanity more times than I can count. They don't drown out the screaming baby, but they get rid of "deep" sounds - those are the sounds that keep you up - engine noise, "background chatter" - all gone. They're not a mute button for your ears, nothing is - but they are the next best thing. TOTALLY recommend. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

I ALWAYS put a flat rate for shipping in the US - easiest thing in the world. But each country outside of the US is different. Trying to figure out 10, 15, 20 different countries would drive me crazy. Anyone can go to www.usps.gov and do it themselves - why don't they? I never said I didn't put a shipping charge there - I just am not going to list the charge to every single country. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

So when I need some kind of sanity in my life, I find something of mine to sell on ebay. Usually old DVD's I'm not gonna watch anymore, old video games, an ex-girlfriend or two, whatever. I'm currently selling an old but perfectly functional development enlarger timer. Cool. Logical and easy to do, right? On EVERY auction I do, I put the following in the "shipping section." Seller's payment instructions Buyer pays (whatever it is for that specific auction) for shipping, shipped via USPS First Class mail, packaged and secured really, really well. Will figure out shipping for outside the US after auction ends. DON'T ASK before auction ends, thanks. There are currently 2 questions (because I already answered four of them.) Note the part in bold above. What do you think 5 of the 6 questions were? People really amuse me sometimes. It's amazing the majority of the public manages to get out of bed without seriously damaging themselves. -rant over. Going to get a drink with some friends.

I was in a meeting once, and clients were annoying, like they normally are. Someone said something extra-annoying, and I jumped up, grabbed my head, and shouted, "1.21 GIGAWATS! GREAT SCOTT!!"
