    I just found out from my parents in Virginia that our family dog, Bandit is being put to sleep tomorrow. I picked him and his sister out when they were 8 week old puppies in the local humane society after my childhood dog had been put to sleep due to cancer. Now they are both 8 years old.

    Bandit is being put to sleep due to his behavioral issues. He is a really sweet, loving dog, but unfortunately, he is skiddish and when he gets nervous he lashses out and can bite. He gives little warning, so the bites are usually a big surprise, with little to attribute it to. He has never hurt anyone badly, but we now realize that it would probably only be a matter of time until that happened.

    When I was home over Christmas he bit at me and barely grazed my arm when I was sitting on the floor and gently petting him. Today, he bit someone else who he knows who was trying to pet him.

    My parents took him to the vet and said their good byes. He will be put to sleep in the morning.

    I don't even live with them anymore, but this is tearing me up. I feel like this is probably the best thing to do considering the fact that there are children all around my parents house that could get hurt by him. But knowing it is the right thing to do doesn't stop the fact that this just sucks. It is hard to put down an animal.

    Anyways.. I guess I just needed to vent about it.



    Yeah.

    people watch TV and then they're all the Dog Whisperer.:|

    Rent a Clue, people.

    Listen to some Regina Spektor, Fiona Apple and think about the good days with yer 'lil pup.

    Almost every time I try to watch something on Youtube the feed hangs up before the end of the clip. Sometimes a reload works, but I have to start watching from the beginning. Sometimes I never get the entire thing before I give up in frustration.

    I've had this happen on different PCs, and with different ISPs.

    Any suggestions?



    Do you have the same problem using MySpace?;)

  5. Dude! Thanks for the informative posts. I've been looking at the same issues since Christmas when my cousin got a Zune. I'm always suspicious when a product has a killer marketing campaign, tons of accessories and still has horrible customer service stories.

    AFAIK Apple's solution to Ipod problems:

    1. try synching it with iTunes.
    2. if that doesn't work, Buy a new one.[:/]

    How often do you find yourself completely deleting a post that would get you banned?

    Lately I seem to be doing this at least once a day...

    I'm not just talking about "hahaha, this will probably get deleted" kinda stuff, but I mean honest to god "Yup, if I click submit I am taking a forum vacation..."

    You might be right.... the Lusers and sheeple are getting dumber every day. :P

    That's why it helps to have a friend in the ER or some other access to IV. Like I said - the Banana Bag is liquid gold for a hangover. B|



    So... you're coming to CouchFreaks this year?;)

    I prefer several pints of ice cold water, and two Naproxen (Aleve). If things are really bad, try some gatorade to replace those fancy electrolytes and maybe a gram of Vit C.

    I'm surprised to see that someone who jumps at a USPA RD's DZ has such a lack of basic understanding of the FAR's and how they pertain to you.



    I've provided mine and you've chosen to use that information to suggest that I'm somehow sub-standard in the training comprehension arena because I jump in spite of jumping at AerOhio.




    You had that backwards. Fixed it for you.;)

    Happy New Year!:)

    There is no specific guidelines on what a DZ must do to make sure you comply. In theory the Pilot should inspect each rig prior to each jump. The absence of the seal would mean that there was no longer proof of the rig being packed by a rigger. Obviously things can be forged, etc. so if it LOOKS legal, the pilot is probably covered.

    DZ's have implemented the procedures they individually have decided covers their and their pilot's butts. And they vary widely.



    Do you think that it would be of any benefit to include written guidelines in the SIM then? If procedures vary widely would it be a good idea to provide guidelines that may protect a DZ from legal action or is it too intrusive?



    What legal action are you talking about? Skydivers & pilots are either in compliance with the FAR or they are not. Additional USPA Skydiver's Information Manual guidelines will not protect anyone from legal action.

    Most (all? haven't looked)



    "Haven't looked" appears to be the theme here.

    In case my point was missed, I'm saying that the owner a a rig owns responsibility for keeping it safe and it's not fair to make anyone else own that chore. Excuse the fuck out of me if you think the pilot should be responsible.



    The FARs say what they say. The FAA really don't care what you interpret them to mean or what you think is "fair".

    Diet does DEFINATELY affect semen composition and .... um... taste. I tried to do a pubmed search on the topic of diet and semen and for some reason there weren't a whole lot of studies on the taste. :o But... from a non-medical prespective, try some pinapple juice. It's supposed to help. (so I've been told):$



    Yeah.....

    Run a test. East fast food. Ask GF what the spunk tastes like.
    [:/]

    From bona fide sources.... :P 'normal' spunk tastes like almonds.

    Best taste is focused on a diet of bananas...

    it does not apply to checked baggage. water is not allowed through security. I don't know about empty water bottles. I don't imagine it would be a problem, but you can check the NSA website.

    Check the TSA web site after that.:P

  19. I just got back from a weekend with the family in Texas. Round trip flight from CID to DFW Friday to Monday

    I forgot I was wearing one of my Go-Wear t-shirts. TSA requested I take off my winter jacket (normal) for the checkpoint and then the TSA girl read my shirt:

    "There are no perfectly good airplanes."

    She laughed and waved me on thru.
