They do they have senses and experience.

It happens often, very easy to tangle the first chute. I tangled mine on the second jump, it was very windy, almost windy enough for them to abandon the jump, I leapt out of the plane and was hit by a strong gust of wind which made me and the parachute face different directions. I spun round several times, realised the problem, looked up and saw the twisted lines, and kicked to spin myself the other way. I was congratulated on good control. If that had failed I would haven needed the second chute.

It's lies damn lies and statistics. You can feel yourself concentrating better for the first few drinks before it goes downhill. It actually improves your health too unless you're more than FOUR times over the recommended amount.

And the same applies to time travel. If I'm about to go 5 years into the future, that future does already exist, it's just 5 years away in that dimension, and nobody you know from this time can see it yet unless they travel in time.

Interesting not sure if I'd like it, I don't like heights on a ladder or looking directly down when on a tall building,
but being on a plane I'm OK.
I think that's the difference of vertigo and heights.
A friend of mine gets dizzy when looking up at tall building but is OK looking down from one.

yeah the recommenced amount is a bit odd, I've only seen double once but didn;t feel as drunk as on a few other occasions.

I haven't but know someone that did. I think the beer was off I could hardly finish the first pint.
A few 100 years ago in london you could rent a place to sleep and the cheapest ones they stood you up tied a rope around you so you
wouldn;t fall down . They could pack more people in a room that way. think is was the 1700-1800s saw it on TV.

Thought about both but laser surgery sometimes needs doing again after 5+ years.
I can really watch TV with reading glasses on so not sure I;'d like contacts for just reading.

Something like spacetime , if yuo travel forward in time you also have to travel in distance too.

we have an electrical waste bin at work for such things.
I have hard drives, one day I'll remove the circuit boards add some surface mount LEDs and a small battery and flashing circuit
and frame it as art. Not sure I'll win a turner prize but one day I'll get around to it.

Get an air conditioner like me. I can't sleep above 20C. Only cost me £400. It's fucking wonderful to have ice cold air being blasted into the house.

When I was 4000 feet in the air, looking down didn't seem high, the ground was so small it just looked like some kind of model setup. And hanging from the chute with steering controls, I felt more like I was in a vehicle than floating mid air.

As I drink more far away things become slightly out of focus, but not bad enough cause a problem. I thought my sight was going until I realised it was ok on the rare occasion I was sober.

The RDA is good for you. Double the RDA is even better for you. Triple the RDA is the same for you as the RDA. Quadruple the RDA is the same as being T-Total. Only after that you go downhill.

Don't you get varifocal contacts? Or do what my Aunt does. Contacts so distance is ok, then add glasses for short range stuff only, without having to remove the contacts.

Yes I use those, but without the LED ring. I have decent room lighting anyway. I've got 200 watts of LEDs (which would be equivalent to 1.5kW of incandescent) in my living room which is 7m x 3.5m. Plus some UV lights as the parrots can see UV.

A French exchange student (who was supposed to help teach us French) when I was at school fucked one of my friends in the swimming pool. For some reason they actually drained it and cleaned it! Don't think she got into much trouble, they weren't obsessed with ages back then.

I don;t remmeber focussing being an issue but co-ordination & balance could a bit off.
Certain types of women became more attractive as I drank more which can be a problem.

Not sure how true that is as many people are efectivley T-total of just don;t drink due to culture. They seem to cope with life without drink alcohol.

Depends what you mean by successful marriage.
I have known of a few marriages for passports have taken place some are still married although they have no contact with each other.

Even the GF I had in the band was going to marry a guy named dave, I'd heard this romour and when I asked her about it she said yes
it's gay dave he agreed to marry me so I can get a english passport , I said that won;t work he;s scottich so youd have a scottish passport.
She was a bit confused at the point but I had to explain that is was a joke and that;s she;s have a EU passport.
After we split she found herself an Engish BF and a year later she married him , I was the photographer and the cocktail maker at her wedding.
She made the punch lots of loverly alcohol but insisted it was springled with a few grams of speed.

They aren't together now she is back in finland and isna facebook friend, no idea what happened to him though.

They kept having to drain our pool as someone that hatted swimming kept throwing a brick though the window and glass would end up ion teh pool.
Happened quite a few times .

genetics is 30-70% of it, and it;s down top gut and other bacteria. Theres a process that's been discovered over the last few years that involves
fecal translpants that's taking shit cells from one peron and putting them in another
and this changes gut bactreria which can have a significant effect or cure obese people, it;s also possible to
help irradicate some cancer cells although it's still in the early testing.

check out the southpark episode Turd burglers ;-)

Why are there more unhealthy blods and fat isn't just fat there is at least two types I know of brown and white fat.

They don;t need to, this is why horses and even dogs eat their own shit as they know they contain something they need
that isn's passed to them in the first 'eating'.

Dogs will eat other dogs shit if they smell that it contains high levels of the things they need.
Some dogs get fed healthy dieds and they stuill shit out so called good protiens.

It happens with many animals .

Why do marathon runners wear so many clothes and don;t chocaolate bars melt in the heat.
I klnow the runners and cyclists have gel packs for energy often wondered how they legistale such things.

My balance is good, first time I ever got drunk as a teenager, my friend fell over when trying to punch me. I just sidestepped and watched him land flat on his face. We had both drunk the same and he was bigger than me.

I think its quite common to loose balance seen plenty of videos of people falling over.
It's where the term legless comes from I guess.
A greek student that was quite large and tubby, when we took for a drink he started it get pissed after 1/2 pint.
After a pint he had to sit down.
A friend of mine tried vodka and he started to get violent and argumentative it's the only think he reacts badly too, he can drink
6 pints of beer without a problem. Another Irish friend whos normally really quiet and shy talks endlessly and loudly after a few pints
it can get really annoying he starts hugging friends and saying I love you and gets emotional.

Not sure but the earth moves even rotation so if you go forward 6 months , I think you must also move too as the Earth is on the opposite. side of the sun.

Just send someone in with a dustpan and brush.

But that gut bacteria depends on your genes too presumably. If you see fat parents, chances are the kids are fat too.

I hate that program.

Brown fat is what stops you being a sissy in cold water.

And us. I can smell what's good for me. We also get a desire for a certain food, I bet that's our brain requiring certain nutrients.

That's not the defintion of marriage though.
So when looking at marriage stats it doesn;t mean what poee think it does.

Yeah a line of fun, wierd or problematic.

Talking of which my ex french flatmate told me she is moving in with her boyfriend she says they have the same mentality.
Sounds like a disaster about to happen.

Yes you can inherit fatness just like you can inteligence or athleticism and many other things.

It's about two thirds of the width of a washing machine. And quite loud.. To get something powerful and quiet is over a grand, that was only £400.

And don't pay for professional fitting. The one I linked to is portable and ready to run, but when you buy the proper big ones with a part outside and a part inside, you can connect the hoses through your wall yourself then just pay someone to fill it. The pressurizing equipment is a bit expensive to get yourself. Or, some of them are pre-pressurized, with enough spare gas to fill the pipes you connect inbetween.

It most likely is. Black market dealers are a lot brighter than the law. I know a local drug dealer who outsmarted the police in court. She got let off with "not proven". She makes a living selling "street Valium".

He was one of the cleverest students we've had a built a digitizer for displaying pictures on a BBC computer, he used to show it off at
computer exibitions as it ran and updated the screen with images from the star wars films , it copied everything from an ROM installed in the computer..

I very much doubt intoxication has any link to inteligence other than the less inteligent tend to believe it.

I know someone that loves coffee but hates coffee flavoured things like ice cream, quality street and the like type sweets.

I think they know about it, it also part of the light where a star can be 32 billion light years away but the universe's is only 13.8 billion l years old .
I was reading about it as the james webb telescope first pictures came it.
Can't say I truely understood the paper but sort of got the point that it wasn;t as sinple as I first thought and with gravatational lensing
and redshift which isn;t that difficult to understand.

I've been on jury service you can;t really out smart the police it's more that they don;t have enough evidence for a jury to convict on.
That's why she got off with not proven, which is differnt from not giulty.

The dealers ttry to stay one spep ahead but it;s more to do with the number of attempts on getting drugs through.
Not everything is checked at shipping ports and lots more drugs get through than is found.
You just have to make sure nothing leads back to you as a dealer.

They melt at about 27C. It's usually not that hot unless they're in direct sunlight.

No, the tan lowers the amount that gets through.

Every time you overtake someone it's fun. And it's nice to see spectators cheering at your bare chest. I got hosed down on a hot day when running a marathon, a woman had produced a hosepipe and was cooling off anyone who wanted it.

Not much to it really. Which angle to jump, which cord to pull, etc.

Animals run with bare feet , some have evolved into hooves , while others have differing toes and some have fingers others have paws.
But as yet we haven't eveloved foot that run well on concrete or tarmac, some have webbing between their toes I assume you don;t.
.. Of course there are even more modern things such as glass , metal even plastic (lego bricks) that are very painful if trodden on.
We even put shoes on horses .

Go up to around 38C in london a couple of weeks ago.
I thought you'd be running in direct sunlight .

Legistate, or how they decide what is fair and what isn't such as amphetamine sulphate or even marijuana

Only after it's burnt and if doesn't really affect the amount of UV especaily UV B

After the effect, not before it's like putting water on a burning house to stop it burning.
