  1. BWAHAHA yeah, that's what I heard too, Phree. He definitely did not, repeat not, land it. But just hink of the swoop if he planed that one out....*sigh*
  2. Hehehehe Heard one kinda like that, but it was back when good ol' viagra first came out so I pretty much forgot about it. Nice to know it's still good for a laugh. Truman Sparks for President
  3. Welcome, and for sure, we wanna know, what was up on the second SL? Truman Sparks for President
  4. promises, promises Just out of curiosity, why is it that all you nuts from texas are so outgoing?
  5. I dunno, maybe I'm way off here, it just seems to me that there's a world of difference between 50 jumps and 100 jumps. The learning curve is still pretty steep that early on, at least I think so. Either way, starting BASE at 7 jumps...holy crap!! I admit right up front I've never done a BASE jump, but from pretty much every line of thought I've ever heard that's a bit, um, premature. Truman Sparks for President
  6. Hi, Texan, and welcome to the forums. I hope you're a little more outgoing than the other texans who post every now and then Truman Sparks for President
  7. Don't get me wrong, I've had some amazing pets, and to tell the truth, most of them are buried in my own families 'unofficial' pet cemetery. I just have a hard time justifying that much money on a dead animal when it could go to something much more worthwhile. Not to mention I'd freak if I went to a pet funeral, complete with a viewing and a casket. But like my Dad always says, it takes all kinds to keep things running. Of course, he also always tells me never to wear anything with my name on it because no matter how good I am every one screws up eventually. When that time comes it's generally best if not everyone knows your name Truman Sparks for President
  8. I'm sorry, everybody, if this offends someone who really loves their pet, but when I heard about this I only had one response, and it was as follows. *ahem* BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I mean, c'mon, I've been upset when pets have died, hell, I even cried when a dog I had died when I was 15, but this is just plain nuts. Anyhow, whichever way you swing on this one, hope you enjoy a little piece of insanity from my neck of the woods
  9. Welcome, and nice job finding your container for that price. Happens to be what I payed for mine, believe it or not, but I think you may have gotten a little bit better of a deal. Have fun!! Truman Sparks for President
  10. I want a Great Dane!! I've got to ask, about how much does it cost to own one? Truman Sparks for President
  11. Not only do I not know, google doesn't know. Scary shite there, my friend Truman Sparks for President
  12. Congrats, sunny one. You've gone ahead and done something I'm thinking about doing. Just out of curiosity, how hard was it? Truman Sparks for President
  13. That sucks. He had some awesome music, and you're right, he was a great. Not as good as Waylon, but that's just my opinion. Truman Sparks for President
  14. HAHAHA you know, I'd have never even seen that.
  15. Can't help but think this would be something worth going to if I was in the area. story here *edited because I have huge fingers Truman Sparks for President
  16. I thought as much, just never sure. When I watched the movie it did actually take me back to student status for a moment or two. Watching their jumps and seeing them on radio was part of it, but you can tell they're still getting the hang of everything cause they don't even come close to grabbing rear risers during opening. As far as the movie being based in real life, I think I have to agree with you. As many parts of it as I laugh at there are a few more parts that are pretty accurate. By the way, thanks for clearing up the did they really jump question for me. Truman Sparks for President
  17. nive pics, both of them, thanks guys. Truman Sparks for President
  18. BWAHAHAHA Yeah, it's a "great" movie. I always loved the packing scenes too, they're just fun. Another part I liked was Mr. Baldwin's first BASE coming after he'd made what seemed to be about 50 jumps. Of course he did spend all that time in the GK's wind tunnel...... Actually, one thing I noticed that I thought was cool in that movie is that several of the actors are wearing radios like maybe they actually flung themselves from the plane. Anyone know if that actually happened? Truman Sparks for President

    Ready?

    Priceless! In the what to do in a high rise section it tells you "Listen for and follow instructions." Seems like that worked well for everyone who did it last time a high rise was attacked. Maybe they should have put 'Get the hell out of the buildig as fast as you possibly can." Seems like that might be a bit more sound. Truman Sparks for President

    Sea Lions

    There was an interesting story on 60 minutes or 20/20 or 48 hours or someother news magazine show, I forget which one it was, about this. Very interesting, talked all about how they used to use dolphins but they didn't do so well in really warm ater temps so they switched to see lions. Even showed a practice run where one of the critters snared a diver. very cool, looked like the sea lion was having a blast. Truman Sparks for President

    Pray for us

    God bless and godspeed, from a very pro-military person who happens to protest war. If you've got to fight as a last resort, make sure you fight as dirty, nasty and ugly as is required to win. That's the way I look at it at least. Go kick some ass, and make sure and watch out for yours. Truman Sparks for President
  22. This life you lead, I want it. Any chance you need a rommate down in texas? Truman Sparks for President
  23. I used to have a little pad of stationary that I used for phone messages with blizzard watermarked across the middle of it. I think it was complimentary with soemthing or other. Hmm, that's been awhile, too. Oh yeah, never played it Truman Sparks for President
  24. Alright, beer! oh yeah, have fun jumping brown
  25. HAHAHA Hey, cocnutmonkey, do you give guided hunts? I've always wanted to take an APC but they aren't native to my region. Truman Sparks for President
