    hehehe, I'm a monkey! Gotta love that You are a very intelligent and a very clever wit. Because of your extraordinary nature and magnetic personality, you are always well-liked. The Monkey, however, must guard against being an opportunist and distrustful of other people. Your sign promises success in any field you try.

  7. I always goo by 9 sec. for the first 1000 feet and then 6 sec. for every additional 1000. Assuming fall rate for belly flying
  8. You said it. The winners get to decide exactly how history happened. I guess we dumb masses just need to be spoon fed the "proper" version of reality. Ahhh, life. Ain't it grand. Truman Sparks for President
  9. How's this for good vibes? There's been 10 or 11 straight days of not a single look at the sun, shilly temps and rainy weather and I was gonna use all my accumulated vibes to get rid of that, but you can have them since you need them more. Here they come....VIBES!!! Hope you're hands a royal flush Truman Sparks for President
  10. aw man, reminds me of an old Chevy Chase movie, I forget the name, where he tells the angry guys with guns "Okay, okay, if you let us go I'll bring back the sun." Truman Sparks for President

    Pranks

    This one took a bit of teamwork and stealth. We had a real jerk in basics who kept screwing up and forcing our company into extra pt so we sewed him to the mattress one night. The next morning was very entertaining. Truman Sparks for President
  12. Hey all, good morning to you! At least the sun's starting to think about showing up soon. Well it should be. I can't sleep and the weather sucks. I'm in Kansas City Missouri, right smack in the middle of the US, and we've set a new record for the weather here. Check this out--for as long as weather has been being recorded here there has never been this many chilly rainy days with no hint of the sun in a row in the month of October. We're going on 10 or 11 now. Sucks a lot Truman Sparks for President
  13. Gonna have to argue with your label for that one, amber Truman Sparks for President
  14. I slept a few hours and then mysteriously woke up. Damn gremlins messing with me. Anyway, I'm just wondering who all is lurking about here at this particular point in time, so if you're on here holler back. Truman Sparks for President
  15. I have got to go with Churchill. That old boy was freakin amazing! There just doesn't seem to be much of anything important that he missed. Not to mention I hear he like to drink, too Truman Sparks for President
  16. Sorry, maybe I wasn't totally clear in my post. Actually, no maybe, I just plain wasn't. I don't think Twain is advocating war and aggression and patriotism, I think that he is advocating the individual using a little common sense and really thinking about things before they act. It was, afterall, Mark Twain writing these words, a man that was famous even in his own time for saying things that weren't always popular but tended to at least make people think about themselves. Anyway, point is, I do think Twain was right, but then I'm reading it from the point of view that involves him saying these things in a sort of "what's wrong with this picture" way. Truman Sparks for President
  17. A person could get the idea that Mr. Twain thought war was a bad idea from all these quotes. I think Mark Twain and all his satirical wit is one of the coolest things to come out of the US, and I love the way his words can still make people think. Seems to me that slowing down and thinking can be nothing but good for people. Truman Sparks for President
  18. That movie is awesome! I own it, love it, and just lent it out. I'd have to say one of the parts I think is funniest is when they kill the guys in the peep show and the third guy (seems like he's Rosco or something) is grabbing the passed out strippers boob. gawd, I almost died laughing then! Truman Sparks for President
  19. "Patriotism is patriotism. Calling it Fanaticism cannot degrade it; nothing can degrade it. Even though it be a political mistake, and a thousand times a political mistake, that does not affect it; it is honorable--always honorable, always noble--and privileged to hold its head up and look the nations in the face." Also, "Experience proves that the man who obstructs a war in which his nation is engaged, no matter whether right or wrong, occupies no enviable place in life or history. Better for him, individually, to advocate a war, pestilence, and famine, than to act as obstructionist to a war already begun." These are both quotes from good old Sam Clemens, a.k.a. Mark Twain, and since they seem so timely to me I thought I'd post them and see what you all think. Does this fit the current political climate here in the states or not? Truman Sparks for President
  20. This is my advice, simply exact your revenge and start calling yourself the karmic enforcer. I mean, come on, who ever said that when you get screwed you shouldn't get to be the one to keep the karma nice and fresh? Actually, I can kinda sympathize since my ex tends to randomly appear in my life. It's not hard to let old good times take over your mind. Isn't wierd how we tend to forget the crap and focus on the good? Truman Sparks for President
  21. If I tell her I'm gonna do a horny gorilla what's her reaction gonna be? Does she like sleeping in strange places with large amounts of alcohol in her blood every weekend? When we're in said strange places we won't really be sleeping, will we? Is a helmet cam acceptable bedroom wear? Truman Sparks for President
  22. gotta love this one... "What happened to Turbo?" "He was too slow, so we killed him." Truman Sparks for President
  23. This is one of those worthless posts about sitting here doing nothing listening to the Dandy Warhols. Actually, I just want to complain about the worthless weather here in Missouri. It sucks! Ok, I feel better. Truman Sparks for President
  24. Just wanted to give you a slightly late congrats. I saw some video of the jump tonight on Inside Edition and I thought I'd let you know a couple of things...one, you made it onto national media, and two, you all looked great on that jump! Nice job!! Truman Sparks for President
  25. hehehe, yeah, we always get our rigger a fifth of his choice for packing a save. Of course the flip side of the deal is if we bounce due to his pack jub we get to haunt him and cause him all kinds of grief. Truman Sparks for President
