Ohhhh.... don't make any false moves Mr Mainwaring, and don't make any real ones either! "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

Can you identify the purse snatcher in this line-up, mam? "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

I am so uncool that I don't understand a word your saying. Except that you want to know which shoes the guy wanted to buy: Teva's. Don't know about cool, don't care neither. I'm jumping some ordinary sneakers for comfort "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

So I got some proxy errors this morning. Nothing that clicking the back button and trying again couldn't handle, but when I was replying to a thread just now I got the following error message which I'd never seen before: "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

It's not so bad really.. At least, not as bad as the following PM I received: "Dennis, could you remind me what that popular shoe among skydivers is? Then at least I'll know which ones to buy, though I have to wait until I get my C before I'll be able to jump with them." They should have picked their words more carefully...

True. The original artist is considering legal actions against Wilders. Wilders hopes that by changing ot a different (but equally insulting) cartoon at least this suit can be prevented. He also edited out the picture of the rapper whom he confused with Theo van Gogh's murderer. The hearing which is a result of that "trivial" mistake is today. EDIT: Speaking of lawsuits, Wilders is sueing yet another rapper who made a song in which he alledgedly says that Wilders must die or somesuch (haven't heard it, though). The rapper is protesting that his song is about freedom of speech "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

I like this one better.

[replyThis guy had called asking for a repack at that time and I'd referred him to a few other local riggers, but apparently he didn't follow through in getting it repacked Not that I'm a rigger, but the guy must be bloody stupid to come back to you after forging your name on the card. Did he really expect you not to notice? "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

Depends on where in the Netherlands you're from. Being from one of the southern provinces, you'll never hear me say that I'm from Holland. This may surprise people from the middle regions of the country, but that's chauvinism for you. But we're getting side tracked

Ah, no thanks - I play the flute AND I'm Dutch. No way this tulip is gonna be "on" an organ "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

It's called "faking", dude! "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

I'll say. And besides being very impressive, flute and piano go together very well. "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

I guess the difference is attitude

Yes, I tried talking to him. He thought I was joking. Fortunately it seems I got the job i applied for recently - only three more months left in this department. Three long, long months. Though i like the suggestion about the laxatives

Er.. we're supposed to write with the same accent Mark - so why don't I understand you? "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

Freedom of speech is one thing, common decency is quite another. Wilders has been randomly insulting muslims for months now, claiming not only that (unlike him, obviously) the Koran is fascist but at one point actually campaining to forbid it in the Netherlands. Where is the freedom of speech in that? Fitna itself is nothing more than some inexpertly pasted together archive material, which shows a very coloured image of the Islam. Most of the quotes from the Koran that the film shows are from he same book and either mis-translated or taken out of context. For though the koran at some point says that the heathens must be killed (paraphrasing) it also adds that if said heathens have peaceful intentions, there is no need to kill them (paraphrasing again). Dutch muslims took Fitna in their stride - the news reports all say that muslims think Wilders made a fool out of himself and hardly think it worth the bother to respond to it. However, I am waiting with apprehension whatever rediculous insult Wilders will come up with next under the norm of freedom of speech. The worst part is that when Wilders finally succeeds in insulting the minority of extremist factions in the muslim community whereever in the world, WE as Dutch taxpayers have to cough up the dough for Wilders' protection! Why not couple this so-called freedom of speech to the freedom of paying your own damn bodyguards?

The [email protected] address works tho. I gave them a piece of my mind, if only to help fill up their mailbox completely "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

Sorry guys - it's either bothering you lot with this, or be charged with homicide next week. For some reason they let go the quiet, efficient girl I was sharing an office with in favour of an efficient guy who at the same time is the most annoying person I ever met. It's not that he isn't trying to be friendly, but he is just so damn PRESENT. You know exactly when he is in because as soon as you open the door to the office you get hit by this wall of deodorant wafting out. As soon as the air has cleared a little by virtue of a surreptitiously opened window, he comes back into the office and starts to play music on his laptop. I have nothing against some unobtrusive music in the background, but this latin american or techno shit he prefers really drives me up the wall. In itself there's nothing wrong with that stuff, but not when you're trying to think or calculate something. After lunch he mercifully switches to headphones, but unfortunately he is in the habit of periodically singing along a few words he remembers, without being hindered by either talent, or actual apparent knowledge of the tune. Coffee and tea are available to everyone at leisure and he drinks a lot of it, which sounds like he's descended from a toilet which doesn't quite manage to flush right. Another thing is that he is really fast to come to a conclusion. If you're innnocently discussing something with a collegue he'll come 'front risering' in (the word 'swooping' implies skill) before you know it, with his own version of the suggestion and how it applies to him. Next thing you know you have to spend ten minutes dissuading him from, say, quitting his sunday job in favour of doing whatever menial laboratory task for pay. The ten minutes after that you have to spend trying to stop him acting all hurt because you're deliberately leading him on. Or suppose he's mislaid something of his. He'll start accusing the nearest person of stealing/hiding his stuff, before actually looking past his nose to see that the missing stuff is right in front of him on his desk. The thing that really sets my teeth on edge though, is his habit of loudly smacking his lips while thinking - it's bad enough to put me off my lunch, so I live in terror of the day that he discovers chewing gum and all its symphonic possibilities. So tell me, is there anything like justified manslaughter?

I hope that when i'm about to do something stupid people will tell me. (edited to change "my friends" into "people" to emphasise the point.) "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom

..and too busy helping/training/coaching other jumpers in whatever spare time they got. At least, that's my experience so far in what little time I have in the sport. It doesn't matter how few jumps you have, even the best skydivers are always ready to help you out with advice or coaching. That's what I love about this sport - we're really all in this together.

No she doesn't - The close up in that solo-flute scene near the end of American pie 2 clearly shows Allison's fingers moving randomly over the valves and way too quick for the music you hear.
