  1. What Are You Too Afraid To Do?

    in Open Chat

    Posted

    So...you're gonna dance nekkid in the streets tomorrow or the next couple days???

    Is that how I'm reading that?

    (video highlights will be available at www.dumbnekkidguy.com) ;)

    Hitest - I'm also scared of hieghts, but I've made 1846 jumps from perfectly good aircraft.

    There is a huge difference between standing on the edge on top of a 15 story building, and hanging from the side of an airplane at 14,000' ASL.

    Your mind does not recognize the usual objects at that hieght and therefore doesn't really register altitude, but on top of the building you see cars, people, dogs, mailboxes...and your mind goes nuts!

    Plus it helps to have a good parachute strapped to the back, but even that doesn't help much at low altitudes...

    Chappy..that is some insight!! I am afraid of being on a ladder or on a roof that is 10 ft high, but am not the least big anxious about flying and parasailed on Lake George...200 ft in the air, only a rope pulling me from a boat that I could barely see...I always wondered why with this fear, the higher I am, the less it bothers me...Thanks!!

  5. New Lcd I'm Looking At Buying

    Posted · Edited by Darrenkook

    Looking for a new LCD monitor. I have a 4 yr old 17" Samsung and time for a new one..I saw this at Newegg. I checked around other sites for others with the same specs and can't find any close in price which makes me a bit nervous..If anyone has time, can you look at this and tell me if it's something you would buy for this price. I'm not a gamer, but would like to get more up to date on resolution advances...

    PS.. I have a dell dimension 2350 running XP pro...

    Yeah, I saw that, but never had Kazaa and don't have any of those registry entries...just don't want to delete it from A2 in case it is a F/P and lose my chat exe.

    Just an update...as I thought it is a F/P..I deleted it from A2 and guess what happened?? Couldn't get on mIRC chat. Just had to download it again.....

    Hi all!! A Squared keeps finding Mirc.exe as malware...I keep ignoring it. Has anyone else had this problem?? Sorry if this was posted already...Been incapacitated for a while and haven't caught up on posts in a while...

  16. Adaware And Ie?

    Just to add another suggestion...Download Spyware Blaster as well.. Always suggested when downloading Spybot Search and destroy. S/B just needs to be updated.(It doesn't scan) The two programs work together to help keep you clean. When you update S/B..just make sure you check your protections. It will tell you if anthing is not protected and there is an option that allows you to enable all protection. Make sure you do that...good luck!!

    I saw a post yesterday with a link in it where people were running adaware se and having all types of problems...Searched and can't find the post. Anyone know where it is?? I don't want to scan with this until all is fixed...
