  1. I stand corrected It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  2. This is a skydiving forum, why bring your religious beliefs into it? It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  3. Can you tell me the last time flat flyers traveled to the homes of freeflyers and executed them because they chose to be freeflyers and not flat flyers? (The Crusades) Can you tell me the last time an 8 way team were executed because the head of the 4 way team wanted to eradicate 8 way teams because he classed them as sub human? (The Holocaust) Can you tell me the last time someone was tortured for refusing to denounce his method of stretching and take up the method enforced by his inqusitors? (The Spanish Inquasition) Can you tell me the last time amputees who had lost lower limbs were ostracised by amputees who had lost upper limbs and believed that upper limb amputation was the only true way? (Protestant/Catholic sectarienism in Northern Ireland) Very simplistic generalisations i know, but these scenarios have happened and continue to happen in the name of organised religion.

  4. Photoshop CS (Mac) runs very well under Rosetta as there is no Universal version yet. Photoshop CS (PC) runs better in Windows on My Mac than it did on my desktop. I believe that FW800 is double the speed, but not having used it I dont really know what the benefits are. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  5. Over the new Core 2 Duo 15.4, you loose out on a Firewire 800 port and the Express card/34 slot. That is other than processor speed and max ram. I have the Core Duo 15.4 that doesnt have FW800 and I havent missed it. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  6. Well lets see?? Do you have an iPod?? If so iTunes Do you fly camera? If so iMovie Do you have a digital stills camera? If so iPhoto Do you film tandems? If so iDVD Do you like to make music? If so Garageband Do you like to make web pages? If so iWeb Do you like to watch DVD's, listen to music, or look at your photo's? If so then Frontrow I would recommend signing up to .mac and using Mail for email. If you have other freinds that have .mac accounts then you can use iChat which rocks. If you use Skype then the built in iSight is cool for video conf. And to top it all off. If you get a new intel Mac then if you really need to and cant find a Mac program to do it then you can always reboot your Mac into WindowsXP and enjoy windows running better than you could imagine on a PC. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  7. 2 is Ben Fogle, the guy who was on Castaway and then rowed round the world 3 is a DJ but I cant remember his name 5 is Greg Evigan It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  8. I built a dogs bollocks desktop for way less than that purely for editing video on. I brought a MBP earlier this year and have stripped out the HDD from my desktop to use as externals for my MBP. The desktop is now only used by my daughter when she cant get on the Mac. They do seem more expensive initially, but the long term payback is worth it. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

    Misty days

    A small price to pay for living in such a beautiful area. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  10. I very much doubt that a group of skydivers praying together would find anyone wanting to join them in prayer on a DZ other than other christians. I personally would rather they kept their indoctrinated practices to themselves and in private, and that goes for all religions not just christianity. As for Yoga I guess as a relaxation teqnique and means of improving strength and flexibility I would probably ask if I could join in. I wont go to your place of worship and dirt dive in the aisle, do me the same courtesy. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  11. Here are my last two canopies A: Jonathan B: 150 C: I'm guessing custom as I brought it 2nd hand D: This pic is a still from the video of the time I chopped it. A: Stiletto B: 150 C: Again a 2nd hand canopy so but I'm guessing custom. D: The ditch in the picture is the old one at RAPA in Germany and was over 45m long. The Stiletto has now done well over 2000 jumps and I am looking at getting a complete new set of kit. Ill be getting either a Xfire 2 139 or a Katana 150, either way I will keep the same colour scheme as the Stiletto. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  12. Ive gotta turn into the fun police here. You should not be taking photographs with a hand held camera under canopy. Whilst you are shooting away you are unaware of your surroundings. A recipe for trouble. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  13. I believe that Netheravon also had a Rapide in the early years of the DZ. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  14. Moving from Brazil to sunny Scunny !!!!!!! Who did you piss off at work???? Hib is a fantastic DZ but its not in the most cosmopolitan of areas It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  15. He he he he he he he he he he he he he She said Penis It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  16. Another convert to the MacBook Pro here. I have Win XP installed on a partion but find that I never need to use it. Office for Mac is a peach, and looks alot better than Office XP. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

    As sung by Elvis Costello's dad in the original advert. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  18. I saw a youg lady walking through our fair capital last night with a simmilar kinda thing and I was supprised at how sexy it thought it was. I wonder if I can persuade my chick to do that dieted fro llispeng It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

  21. "If you were my husband I would poison your drink" --- Lady Astor to Winston Churchill "If I were your husband I would drink it" --- Winston Churchill to Lady Astor It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  22. I wasnt sure wether or not to take Scar Tissue with a pinch of salt. That guy has abused himself so much its a wonder he is still alive. Gotta say I saw RHCP at Earls Court with my GF and they were awesome, almost did a cover of Londons Calling and had Patti Smith guesting. I caught a glimpse of the video for Snow and thought it had been filmed at Earls Court but on closer inspection that seems not to be the case. The best live show I have been to this year was the Foo Fighters at Hyde Park which is out on DVD and should be in my stocking on Xmas Day It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  23. Oh freddled grunt bugly, thy micturations are to me, like plurgid gabble blotchets on a lurgid bee. Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdrome and hooptiously drangle me, in crinkly bindle wurdles. Or, I will rend the in the gobberwarts with my blurgle crunchion. See if I dont It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  24. I know some pretty normal looking people who have fuck all interesting to say bub Have you seen Marilyn Manson's interview in Bowling for Columbine? He's pretty weird looking and had a lot of interesting stuff to say... Absolutely right, whats the saying about books and covers. Katie Price AKA Jordan and David Beckham are two others who I have seen interviewed and changed my oppinion on. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
  25. Is the chick in this pic being ironic?? Doubt it, but it made me laff. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
