    If she wins, whomever she takes will be one lucky bastard. I met her at Work Stinks boogie and noticed she has a nice personality to match her cute smile and nice bod. BTW, I'm not trying to sleaze up to her. I'm happily married, and I get sick on big ships. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    What do you base this statement on? I am unaware of any peer reviewed rigorously defended study that indicates wealth does not cure crime. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    It may be because of the waxing moon and minimal moonlight. The next scheduled moonlight madness night jumps at Start Skydiving is September 25th. http://startskydiving.com/vcalendar/index.php?cal_monthDate=2010-09 For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    I've got a GOPro my wife got me for Christmas. It is in my closet gathering dust and not attached to my helmet. Some people listen. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    Of all the physical properties a woman could have or be msising you want teeth? For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    I retract that. The official rules don't say anything about voting more than once per day. (yes I was bored and read them). The website does say, "You can vote for each entry once per day". It doesn't say "You can only vote for each entry once per day". Still, it isn't worth voting more than once and disqualifying Kim. So disregard all my instructions on how it could be done. The public vote only takes it to the top 5, then the judges get to decide if some guy who managed to hit the target and whelp a son is more worthy than a skydiving chick.

    Easiest: tools, internet options, privacy, sites, add http://wildfireapp.com to the blocked domains for cookies. I also checked the rules and it doesn't prohibit voting more than once per day. It just tries to prevent it by using internet explorer cookies. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    Yes your way will also work, but it is using a sledge hammer to drive in a finish nail. Some of the cookies I have are useful and I wouldn't want to banish them to limbo. My way is a little faster if you keep the temporary internet folder open and just nuke the cookie after it writes it. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    I hate being told I can only vote once a day for such a lovely photo. Ergo: Step 1: Make sure you can see your cookies by going to control panel, folder options, view, and then uncheck the "Hide protected operating system files. Step 2: Using My Computer, Navigate to your temporary internet files folder. If you don't know what it is, assuming you are using Internet Explore open a window, go to Tools, internet options, Browsing History Settings, and look at the current location Step 3. Sort the files by most recent and Delete any file in that directory created today that ends with @wildfireapp. Step 4. Vote for Kim Step 5. Go to step 3 and repeat until you get bored of voting again. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    Great picture - just voted. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    Happy Birthday - We've never met, but I read your NSFW thread daily. I am that perveted. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    With all the other 'interesting?!?' posts Amazon has made on this thread, I think post #6 is the most innocuous. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    I'm not sure that is the insinuation. The way I see it is we are asking honest taxpayers to bear the burden of catching dishonest taxpayers. I don't think anybody is accusing the small busines owner of cheating. I think the assumption is anybody who owns a business is rich and can afford to spend time/money helping the government find tax cheats. We know that assumption is wrong. The only way to catch the cheaters is to put the burden on the source of the undeclared income, or increase the size of our bloated, ineffecient government. It sucks to be you, but it is much better for me to have you do it. The incremental cost to the product the small business provides is far cheaper to me than making the government bigger. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    Hmmm - I am wrong. The exemption for not having to report payments to a corporation will be removed in January of next year as will the goods exemption. This does suck for everyone except Tax Preparers and Tax Software Companies. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.
  16. DiverMike
    You don't seem to be able to understand what is reportable on a 1099, be it material or labor. Payments for which a Form 1099-MISC is not required include:Payments for merchandise, telegrams, telephone, freight,and similar items; For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.
  17. DiverMike
    We can agree to disagree. Any payments made to a corporation are generally excluded. Also any payments you make using a credit card are generally excluded if the merchant set up the correct MCC. The are some exclusions to the above exclusion list involving payment to Fishermen and Lawyers. YMMV, but this is a tempest in a teapot. I have no problem with the government trying to catch people underreporting income. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    I don't see how this is any different from any other business in the United States. If you are claiming a business expense, you must have proof that can be audited. Every single business in America is supposed to issue a 1099 to vendors that have not provided a tax ID number if the amount paid during the tax year is in excess of $600.00. This is absolutely nothing new. This is just holding agribusiness accountable to the law that has been on the books for years. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    The way I read it was Hip Kitty was playing as a ZZ Top cover band Friday Night. It was pretty vague, For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    5 string banjo (intermediate), Tenor Ukulele (Beginner), Piano (intermediate). One of the reasons I took up skydiving was to learn something new. I enjoy doing that with musical instruments also. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    +1 New threads scare me. Additions to existing threads usually just annoy me because 4 times out of 5 they are not directly related to the incident. When I first joined DZ.Com, I logged a few non-relevant entries to the incident forum. I soon realized how inappropriate it is to discuss general skydiving issues about when/whether to hook turn, wear a camera, wingloading, EP's, etc. All those discussions should be in safety and training. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    Does anybody else think it is wierd that drunk bikers are more responsible than skydivers and can be trusted not to post inappropriate pictures? Or is that rule BS and has something to do with Dorkzone.com's bandwith? For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    I don't understand why skydivers think their lives would be better of if they were more regulated by the FAA. There is more bad than good. Do you want to be subject to DOT drug-testing policies? How about 8 hours bottle to throttle? Class III Medicals? I am happy flying a canopy without the government looking over my shoulder. The USPA is benevelant compared to the alternative. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    Yea - I thought the whole thread was becoming a major downer with everybody calling everybody else names. I could have either joined the name calling melee or photoshopped a cock onto a dolphin to lighten things up. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

    If you really feel that way, maybe you should take up bowling. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.
