    Swinging from a rope

    I'm sorry about your arm, but that was a funny post. :tinysmile_fatgrin_t Grandpa, those pictures are awesome. They really got some hang time from that rope! Also, I love the look of that area, it's really beautiful. We don't have anything like that in my area.

    GPS Maps?

    I have a Magellan GPS system and it came with a disc that just lets me update my GPS from online. It didn't cost anything. It installed a link to it on my desktop. I'm not sure how others work since my girlfriend asked the same question about hers which doesn't have a disc.

    Swinging from a rope

    Be careful when swinging from a rope off of a cliff. My brother was the only one that didn't let go and fly into the water and he hurt his hip and got scraped up from hitting the cliff. It sounds funny and I saw it happen in a movie called "Grown Ups", but it could've been serious. Just a...

    Pet sitter

    Does anyone have any experience with using a pet sitter? What's the best way to go about looking for a trustworthy one? Would you ask for things like a copy of their license? I would only need them for a short vacation to feed my cats and clean the litter box.

    Diving in the Gulf

    I live on the east coast of Florida and haven't ever been in the ocean on the other side of the state so does anyone know if it is a good area for diving over there or even snorkeling? Do they have any reefs on that side of the state? I'm thinking of going on a vacation this spring either in...

    Small craft riding by cruise ships

    So, some think I'm paranoid and some think it's just a legitimate concern. I myself am a big fan of going on cruises and there's no way I'd want mine ruined regardless of if anyone is injured or not. You pay a lot of money and don't want to worry about things like that.

    Small craft riding by cruise ships

    Good point and you're probably right, although didn't something like that happen a long time ago to one of our ships by Lebenon or something? I remember some news about people driving up to a ship and detonating a bomb, but I can't recall any details. I do remember a picture I saw of it though.

    Small craft riding by cruise ships

    I was driving past the harbor where all the cruise ships docked and I noticed some people on wave runners riding right up to the ships. I would think with all these precautions post 9/11 that it would be illegal to do that. Who's to stop some nut from planting something on the ship and riding...

    Vacation time!

    The doctor told me their might be some pain after the numbing goes away, but I haven't experienced any. It is a pain, because I do have to soak my feet twice a day to clean the areas he worked on and he said to do it for 15 minutes. I just have to remember that and taking the medicine ever 12...

    Vacation time!

    Well, kind of vacation time. I just had a procedure done on my toes to fix two nails and I can't go back to work for two weeks. The weather has warmed up some so maybe I can get out, since I have to wear sandals. My girlfriend comes back from her trip home in Venezuela on Sunday so I'm pumped...

    other peoples mistakes

    I know how you feel, but I'm use to it. My job is to basically correct mistakes for a large group of people at a healthcare supplies distributor. It can be annoying because when people find things wrong they won't figure it out. Instead, they know I get things done so they drop the problem off...

    Soft Tacos

    Burger King doesn't sell tacos, unless they do where you live which is weird because I've never heard of that. I tried some tacos at a buffet place a few weeks ago and the meat was horrible. Some of those authentic Mexican restaurants make some mean tacos.

    The Lion Whisperer

    I don't think any of you actually took a look and heard the guy explain what he does. He basically started with those lions since they were cubs. It is rare, but he is basically a part of their pride. It's not like he just walked up to some random lions in the wild and started all that. He spent...

    The Lion Whisperer

    I stumbled across something I find amazing recently. It's a guy by the name of Kevin Richardson from South Africa. They call him "The Lion Whisperer". He has a website with videos, but there are a lot more on YouTube, including a series with him. He works at a wildlife preserve where he has...

    Soft Tacos

    I'll make it easy and just bring some delicious Taco Bell. Whenever I make taco's myself, they always turn out with so much grease that I can't eat that many of them. I need to buy a strainer just to make them edible or something.

    New Year's Eve and guns

    I think they should just make it illegal to shoot guns in the air like that. The bullets do come down but the people firing just don't care where unless they fire straight up and it comes back down on them. I bet they'd care then. You're right ppine, I do live in a strange part of the country...

    Dying hair

    Thanks for the replies. Pathfinder, I'm past the point of just a few. It is a lot now. I have a 28 year old girlfriend and she tells me to leave them alone and that she loves my hair, but still, I was thinking I'd like my hair to all be the same color again. It actually looks better when I have...

    New Year's Eve and guns

    It's pretty sad that I live in a part of the country where every year they have to basically plead with people to please not fire their guns in the air to celebrate the new year. People have gotten damage to their property, injured, and even killed, but the people think it's fine to fire their...

    Dying hair

    Anybody have any experience with dying their hair? I'm 33, but I'm really getting a lot of gray hairs on top and I'd like to try something to see if I can prolong it being visible. I don't know anything about it and my first question is about safety. Does dying damage your scalp in anyway from...

    Best time of the year at my job!

    Funny guy. :tinysmile_tongue_t: Really, it's not as bad as I make it out to be. At least for me it isn't. For others it is but I'm in the quality department and I kick butt at my job so they all like me. Other people that don't communicate with the bosses aren't so lucky though so they love when...
