  1. On a side note, I think the warnings get too overboard. It comes off as chest beating. According to gov't stats, skydiving is safer than football, canoeing, hiking, and other more common activities, none of which come with such dire warnings. http://www.besthealthdegrees.com/health-risks/ Advanced stuff like base (1 in 60), swooping, sure, warn of imminent danger. But tandem and vanilla fun jumping are slightly safer than going to a dance party. The warnings should correspond accordingly. Your stats are not from the government, why would the US Governmant keep stats about climbing deaths in Nepal?

It's a really really safe sport, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
  3. I never realized what the third verse was saying. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/king-stand-star-spangled-banner-article-1.2770075
  4. Perhaps the funniest thing I've ever seen. https://youtu.be/TJkHykGRXrw
  5. http://www.nytimes.com/1988/03/23/us/for-girl-with-a-kite-it-was-chance-to-fly.html
  6. Not exactly current news. Have you watched any of the Front Lines on ISIS?
  7. He stated that since he was so damn rich, he was self funding. "They're called gross leases. He basically subsidized the campaign headquarters till they got money rolling in." What money rolling in? He clearly stated that he is paying for the whole campaign. https://youtu.be/qMJv83uYfRw
  8. The Clinton foundation helps more of humanity in a single day than Trump has in his entire life.
  9. All I'm saying is that it's ironic that the Russian Air Force, is now flying over Iraqi airspace and US troops, to be bombing anti-Assad rebel groups that are trained and supplied by the US. The whole situation in the ME just keeps getting more and more bizarre.
  10. I look at this and try and figure out just who is a friend and who is an enemy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_armed_groups_in_the_Syrian_Civil_War
  11. With Russia launching airstrikes targeting Syria from Irainian bases, I was wondering how they were getting there. They would have to fly over turkey or Iraq to get to Syria. It turns out the Iraqi Pm gave Russia permission to use its airspace. Am I the only one that finds it incredibly odd, that after spending, what I assume is now trillions of US dollars and thousands of American lives, that they now let Russia use their airspace? http://www.newsweek.com/iraq-opens-airspace-russia-after-iran-deployment-491170
  12. The trailer made it appear that one engine was still operating and that he could have made it back to the airport. I don't remember hearing anything like that, I heard that pilots on a simulator could only make it back to a runway half the time The beginning of the trailer also made him seem to be a bit nuts.
  13. So a nun and middle age man are sitting next to each other while flying cross country, they are both working on crossword puzzles. The nun ask the man if he knows of a four letter word that describes a certain type of women, with the last three letters being *unt. The man thinks for a couple of seconds and then replies, "Of course, that would be aunt" To which the nun replied, "Damn it, can I borrow your eraser?"
  14. HBO has a free month long trial for HBO Now. The Clear is there.
  15. I googled Alex Gibney today, interestingly, the first thing on him is a hysterically funny rant by Scientology. http://www.freedommag.org/hbo/?vid=alex-gibney?source=gaw&gclid=COCFg5TQwc4CFYkBaQodf5MNwA
  16. it's hard to imagine living over 400 years. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-37047168
  17. His only response has been that he will not release them while he is under audit. That may be the case for 2015, but I have not heard him asked to release prior returns.
  18. Why isn't Trump asked to release tax returns prior to 2015?
  19. Interesting, I think they got this part right. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/08/12/us-court-orders-release-nephew-in-making-murderer.html
  20. Here's a little advice. When you post something that could be cited with a Main Stream media source, use it. When you use Alex Jones, most people, my self included, don't even bother to look.
  21. Those sure are some peculiar questions for someone without a profile.
  22. When's the last time you've seen the white power folks so excited about a presidential candidate ?
  23. The more and more I watch this man, the more and more he appears mentally ill.
