  1. To anyone who knows Japanese currency: Could that middle strip be used for counterfeiting larger denomination bills that aren't obviously fake to the human eye? --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  2. This must have just started. After I voted, there were 12 for Nola and none for the others!
  3. Avon lady alone on the elevator, cuts a little fart. She notices the elevator slowing down to pick up another person. She keeps her wits about her and reaches into her tote bag, pulls out Avon "Perfectly Pine" air freshener, gives a quick squirt in plenty of time before the door opens. One guy gets on, and it doesn't take him long before he's looking around and sniffing. Always the saleswoman, the Avon lady asks him "Do you smell something sir?" "Why, yes. Yes I do." Hoping for some product feedback, she asks "and just what does it smell like, sir?" "It smells like somebody took a shit under a Christmas tree." --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  6. Smoker Ignites Portable Toilet Explosion Thu Jul 15, 7:25 AM ET BLACKSVILLE, W.Va. - Warning: smoking in the toilet can be dangerous. A portable toilet exploded Tuesday after a man who was inside it lit a cigarette. Emergency workers said the man was not severely injured and drove himself to Clay-Battelle Community Health Center. He was later transferred to Ruby Memorial Hospital. His name and condition were not available Wednesday. The explosion, which occurred in Blacksville, resulted from a buildup of methane gas inside the portable toilet. The methane did not "take too kindly" to the lit cigarette, said a spokeswoman for Monongalia Emergency Medical Services. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  9. Of coarse if someone wanted to do this for real and mess with the staff (which I think would be more fun than just messing with the students), you wouldn't want to do anything dangerous yourself or cause someone else to do anything dangerous to "save" you. That's why I asked about what would be funny to talk about but NOT funny in the real world. For what you're talking about, it depends on what you mean by "give the JMs one wild ride." As long as you didn't endanger their lives (or yours), they may get pissed but see the humor in it eventually. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  10. You signed up to be on a stunt-based reality TV show (something like Fear Factor). When you get there, the first stunt is to make a skydive. You’re an experienced jumper, but no one knows it. The producers never asked (would be odd, I know) and you’ve never been to the DZ. Let’s assume the DZ is fairly well known to have good instructors and equipment. What would you do to mess with the DZ staff, producers, or other students? Make up your own story and pick your first jump method to suit the humor. What would be funny to talk about but NOT funny in the real world ? Some things come to my mind: Be the most annoying whuffo ever. Ask all the whuffo questions. “Can you breathe?” “Will I have my own chute?” (especially AFF or SL) “How long is the fall? I saw in a movie where they fell for like 5 minutes.” “What if the chute don’t open? Am I going to have to hold on to someone while they open theirs?” Obviously don’t pay attention in class (without distracting the other students). Yawn a lot. Stare at any good-looking people that happen by. On the plane, ask your instructor: “Are you nervous?” Whatever they say, replay with: “Don’t worry, you’ll do fine.” On the plane, if anyone asks why you don’t seem too nervous, just look at them and say “Pfft, it’s not like they’re really gonna make us jump. That would be crazy.” If doing an AFF, try to break away from the instructors during/right after exit. Assuming you could do this reasonable safely, play keep away with them until they realize you’ve done this before. Maybe do some obviously controled flips/rolls then stick your thumbs in your ears and wiggle you tongue at them. If doing SL (poised exit), after letting go, lift your head up, close your eyes, move your lips, and bring your hands together like you’re praying for the chute to open. If you do AFF or SL, while under canopy, turn the radio off (or don’t pay any attention to it) and land like you normally would. Do an accuracy approach and land on the tuffet or try to get the best swoop you can out of the student canopy (downwind if the wind isn’t too bad?). An elaborate one: Only tell the staff you are experienced. Show your USPA card and they look it up and verify you. It’s an AFF dive out of a Casa (or similar). Work it out to be the first to jump. On the plane, act like you’re not going to jump. When the green light comes on, just scream “Oh God I can’t believe I’m doing this!!!”, run and jump out the back with the instructors following close behind. What do you think would be funny? --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  11. I'm watching for the first time this season. The first episode came out really fast paced and a little hard to follow but it was entertaining. I haven't picked a favorite team, but I do hope Ali and Donnie don't win. Couldn't stand her on Big Brother and can't stand her here. And Donnie is and idiot for staying with her. And, oh yeah, Big Brother ROCKS! --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  13. I may be easily ammused but: "Mounting evidence suggests sex helps keep us healthy" made me chuckle. Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n. A modern sport that involves parties, bragging, sexual excesses, the imbibing of large quantities of beer, and, on rare occasions, parachuting from aircraft.
  14. I can't get it to work. I reload the page. Press Play. Press Plus button. Type in ps/2 for password. The level looks like the attached. As soon as I place a piece, game over, reset, same thing. I don't think I can get it to work. I have IE 6.0.2800.1106 and Flash Version 7,0,19,0. Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  15. Super fun game, but I can't play level 21 or beyond. It looks like it's not removing pieces from whatever level was up before. Any suggestions??? Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  16. The hints help alot. Otherwise, here's a screenshot of 11. Turn the select piece one more clockwise to finish. Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  20. Just made a post with and inline image. The tag is listed in the markup help and it works great when previewing the post. But doesn't work once posted. Found the following thread in bonfire: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1051834;search_string=inline%20images;#1051834 Looks like its been disabled. I totally understand it being a bandwidth hog and the abuse potential. Maybe it should be removed from markup help to not tease the 1 (maybe 2) people that actually read it. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  23. I voted for PlayStation 2. It probably has the most games available for it (it plays PS1 games). It plays audio CDs and DVD movies. Also, they dropped the price to $150. I recommend looking for the game Road Trip. It's Japanese import and a fun little adventure game (rated E). It has a lot of racing (but that's not the sole point of it). Also, bookmark http://www.gamefaqs.com. It's the best source I've found for reviews, FAQs, walkthrus, cheats... for any system. Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.
