In Scotland they just call them hairy cows (except with their accent it sounds like they're saying "haddy kews" ). Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward. Accidents don't just happen. They must be carelessly planned.

Hey Ben - Did you buy your Nitron with the green lines on it, or was that a reline with a custom color? I remember seeing those last weekend out at Quincy and thought they were pretty spiffy looking.

Adam, I did quite a bit of research on this a few months ago after packing my DZO a cutaway (). It took over a week of searching in swampy woods to find the main. The falconry systems that the previous poster mentioned might work well because of their size and ease of use, but the cost is prohibitive. A beacon and receiver pair was over $1000. YMMV.

When I was 6, I tried to make a zipline between two trees using a rope and a coat hanger. About 1 second after leaving tree #1, my encounter with the ground taught me two things: 1. Rope is not a suitable material for a zipline, especially when it is not pulled tight enough. 2. A metal coat hanger will not retain its shape under a 45 pound load. I fell about 10 feet but managed to escape with only bruised ass and ego. Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward. Accidents don't just happen.

[replyI also hate Star Wars but apparently I'm the only person in this universe who feels that way. No... No, you're not! I personally can't stand the series. I will even go so far as to say I hate the originals (4, 5, 6) even more than the newer ones (1, 2, 3). Flame on, folks!

+1 I tried Stevia a few years ago and did not like the taste at all. It had an aftertaste like Sweet 'n Low. Not having tried Truvia, I can't offer an opinion - maybe they did something to improve the flavor over straight old stevia.

So it looks like in a few months I'll be living in Florida.

Cyndi, There are several hospitals in Pensacola (about 20 miles from Navarre): Baptist, Sacred Heart, and West Florida. They are all about 500 beds. As for ambulance services, you might look at Lifeguard International (Air & Land) or Escambia County Ambulance. One last thought - are you absolutely sure your PA-issued EMT cert won't transfer to Florida? The Florida Dept of Health (which incidentally is across the street from my office) has a webpage that mentions out-of-state certifications: Florida DOH Webpage Good Luck!

Congrats! Don't forget to check with your DZO and rigger - they're often plugged into the gear-for-sale grapevine and can negotiate a sweet deal for you. You also have the added assurance of dealing with "real" people you know and trust.

I think, to some extent, it depends on how much responsibility parents force their children to accept. I learned to do laundry at about 8 years old. My mom bascially said "I am not your maid. If you want clean underwear, do some laundry." When I moved out on my own, I was astounded that my roommates could barely make a grilled cheese without involving the fire department. And what do you mean, you can't use clorox on colored clothes?! Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward. Accidents don't just happen.
