  1. I like both but have a cat for a couple reasons. Our family always had a cat (probably the biggest reason) and they require little effort. I can leave her for the weekend and when I come back she's fine. Dogs are too much work. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

    Cruises

    My advice: Get the cheapest room possible because you really won't spend much time there, but, if you're prone to sea/motion sickness make your best effort to get one in the middle (not front or back) because there will be less rocking. The one time I went on a cruise, we had the forward most room and over night the ship was hauling ass bouncing up and down. I woke up the next morning sick as a dog. Also, even though all the food is free, don't feel the need to eat as much as you possibly can. It's no fun feeling stuffed all day. When we went, it was for a week and to five different islands. At each, there was something extra to do (pirate ship ride, visit volcano, etc..) that took about half the day. Then we spent the other half day on our own on the island. For us, that seemed like most fun thing to do although it's extra money. Watch the sunsets in the ocean. During dinner, don't stuff the napkin down the front of your shirt. No matter what, relax and have fun even if all you do is sip piña coladas by the pool all day. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  5. I voted 5 or more because I used be somewhat of a classic computer collector. I have a bunch of C= 64, Vic 20, C= 128, TI 99/4a, Atari 400/800, etc... Even today I have C= 64 setup, although I haven't turned it on in years. Ah, the good 'ole days. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  7. 1. Whats your name? Art 2. How old are you? 32 3. Why did you decide to start jumping out of airplanes? It was something I always wanted to do. There are no DZs close by, but some guys came to jump at an air show. They advertised taking tandems the following week so I went, loved it, and found out they were only two hours away. So I went back to learn how to do it on my own. 4. Are you single or taken? Married? Single 5. Do you have kids? Not that I know of. 6. What do you drive? '02 S-10, '75 Vette, '79 Motorhome 7.

What is your nationality? American 13. Have you ever dated someone you met off the internet? Yes 14. Favorite Movie? Hard to pick one. Some of my current favorites are The Matrix, Death Race 2000, Slapshot, All the Right Moves 15. What do you do when you arent skydiving? Work 16. Have you ever BASE jumped? No 17. If not... do you want to? Maybe 18. Do you have siblings? 1 sister 19. Where do you want to travel to the most? No one place. I like to go to different places although New Orleans was pretty cool. 20. What's your favorite color? I used to like orange as a kid, but today I'd have to say I really don't have a favorite color. 21. Where was the last place you flew to ( not skydiving )? Spain [edit to add obvious joke about kids] --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  9. http://www.carbuyingtips.com/ has a lot of good information about buying cars in general. --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.
  10. Hmmm, interesting. So will the record stores be replaced by computer stores/mp3 player stores and the truck driver now be hauling all this equipment instead of CDs? --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  11. Since I'm the guy that mentioned the word millionaire in this thread, I'll admit that I didn't think of music store owners, employees, truck drivers, etc. I believe bringing those folks up more often should be done. They're probably affected the most. I certainly don't want to see a local record store (or anyone for that matter) go out of business because of too much piracy. With that said, I can still see how it's easy for someone to type in the name of song by a big name artist for big name record label and download it without feeling too guilty. BTW, I'm not a big mp3 downloader. I don't have a portable player and I simply don't listen to music on my computer. And, maybe I need better speakers or whatever, but the mp3s that I've heard don't sound quite as good as original CDs. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  12. As AndyMan said, isn't it clearly illegal unless permission is given? Perhaps you meant to have a discussion on 'should it be illegal' or 'should you feel bad about it'. If people think that it's hard to feel bad about copying a song copyrighted by millionaires, then how much money does someone have to make before their song goes public domain? Don't get me wrong. I'm not shedding any tears over Metallica missing out on a couple of bucks, but where does it end? Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  14. Am I the only who read the subject and thought "Who's Skydiving Bill? And why did Virginia kill him? Must have done something terrible." But seriously, that sucks. It sounds like whuffo senators who had their minds already made up before anyone testified. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  15. Paying for e-mail might reduce/eliminate spam, but it will also reduce/eliminate informal/personal e-mail. People are cheap (I'm cheap). Even at 2 cents, people won't be so quick to send on those jokes or pictures they got. E-mail will become like sending a snail-mail letter. People will only send a message when they really need to. Network admins might like it, but I see it as a bad thing. Plus, who gets the money? If it's the government, then expect the price to go up and up as the country gets deeper in debt. What about international e-mail? What about Web sites where you have to register and get e-mail confirmation? Their cost goes up. What about sites you order things from and get order confirmations from? Their cost goes up so your cost goes up. I think that 1-2 cents per e-mail could be more expensive than it looks. --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.

  16. John! Cool certificate. Beaver is my home DZ (hence the username). Hell I might have been there that day (I'm going to check my log book). Glad to see you kept jumping.
  17. I'd like to say thanks for posting an interesting picture

  19. I did a search on snopes for "radio prank" and didn't see this come up. But I found this little gem: Woman finds out on radio call-in program that her boyfriend is married. - TRUE! --Art Sky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n.
