You mean you actually don't want to be one of those guys that ends up marrying the only girl that will have them, and then those same guys get on their soapbox like they're much more intelligent and worldly just because they're married and their friends are not? Amazing how they stop their "mightier than thou" attitude when their white trash wife files for divorce and takes them to the cleaners. Or runs off with the mail man. Or gains 100 pounds and prowls the used circus tent market searching for dress making material. Or their mother-in-law moves in permanently.

And number 15 needs to be addressed before number 2, otherwise, there will be no money left for number 2.

...was just waiting for someone to post that!

i think i'm seeing age response differentiation......

 

Looks like a lot of you want to skydive. There are reputable dropzones all over the world. Tandems usually run around $150-200, so it's not incredibly expensive, either.

 

Don't you find it funny though that you want a cabin to get away from people... so you can sit in peace and chat on the internet with thousands of people?!

 

I already checked off a lot of things. like the menage a trois, I checked that 1 a lot of times the Playboy mansion, F40, TR, Slutmobile

Now I'm helping the Miami community

I suppose finishing my country house, the VIP bus, do some serious racing, & I suppose maybe sometime next year some kiddies

 

Yes, but there are other things I want to do first. If I skydive and it doesn't work out, my list is screwed.

 

Chances of something happening are very, very, very slim. Most skydiving injuries and fatalities are experienced jumpers who push their limits too far or do something stupid, not tandems.

I notice you ride a motorcycle? What if your next ride doesn't work out? Chances of that are a lot higher.
