  4. 2nd born, but didn't live with my older brother for a long time. Hypercompetitive. I do not deal well with failure in any context. I was apoplectic when I didn't pass one of my student jumps, even though I still got my licence in 25. cavete terrae.
  5. No, that was pure bad news. He is your father. cavete terrae.
  6. Nah, it's a VW. It's really broken. cavete terrae.
  7. Yeah, I need to figure out if it's the upstream or downstream sensor causing the problem. I'll go try and cause a misfire so I can get a legit trouble code and do more diagnostics. cavete terrae.
  8. Yeah, VAG = Volkswagen AG, pretty much the kraut version of an LLC. cavete terrae.
  9. After leaving my car in the parking lot at work for 2 weeks while I acquired a new immobilizer system and the diagnostic computer to install and configure it, I got the car home last night. This morning, I fired it up and plugged in the diagnostic to do a bit of fine tuning. Check out what I found http://spiceweasel.net/pureownage.jpg Skyvan... skyvan... wherefore art thou, skyvan? cavete terrae.

    Hey ASSHOLE!!

    Good morning! cavete terrae.
  13. Toy-style dogs are useful only as footballs with legs. They're all fucking stupid. cavete terrae.
  14. Fly Virgin. (either that or I just got really lucky). THey don't do service to Australia tho Not to mention the overwhelming majority of my flying is done on Star Alliance carriers cavete terrae.
  15. Aha! The apparent answer is "no" on the bright side though, it's more money in my pocket for my new canopy cavete terrae.
  16. I picked up a 2nd job selling home theatre stuff, and my boss heard me talking to one of the installers about some stuff. He goes "wait, you know the tech side of stuff, including installs?" "Um... maybe?" "I need you tomorrow morning to assist on an install at 9am" "" "I'll buy ya lunch" "" cavete terrae.
  17. Yeah, by replacing it with a MacBook I heart Safari ... 'Shell Safari is the debil. FireFox Mac has a few issues, but nothign else has remotely comparable ad blocking capabilities, and it's fast. Memory leakage though, albeit not nearly as bad as Bloatfari cavete terrae.
  18. If you've been a jumper for any amount of time you've seen that look before on a jumper. Its the "I should be dead, but god smiles on drunks, children and idiot skydivers" so I made it through completely fine. Got to see that one at Eloy. Twice! cavete terrae.
  19. For those who missed it, I'll upload both this and the "lowest base jump" episode to Skydiving Movies after I'm bored enough to edit out the commercials and irrelevant crap. cavete terrae.
  20. My "fast sit" is about 185mph, that's all I know. I'm sure my "fast stand" is well above 200. I've got my sit down into the high 160s now tho. cavete terrae.
  21. I think my dad's shirt sums it up well. http://spiceweasel.net/dadshirt.jpg cavete terrae.
  22. See? Both sides want the same thing! Hire on looks! cavete terrae.

    Cold Remedies

    Steam room at a health club will clear you right the hell out. cavete terrae.
  24. Are you one of those speed reading types? For better or for worse, yeah. With a typical novel-type paperback, I'll usually go through it in 2-4 hours depending on print size and length. Something like Without Remorse, by Tom Clancy, that'll take closer to 6+ hours. I did the unabridged version of The Stand by Stephen King in about 10 hours. cavete terrae.
