  1. Anyone do this? 

     I've been fascinated with these things and remain amazed you can fly them without getting a pilots license.  Still, I imagine it's a little more complicated than 1.buy cheap ultralight, 2. fly it.

    How much training does it take so you won't kill yourself?  How hard are they to maintain, etc?  

    Thanks

    Nope.  You guys seem to not realize that not only do we get the joy of subzero days in the winter, we get 100 degree days in the summer too.  We just don't get them for weeks on end, or north of 105.

    My scale is this:

    90+ = hot

    80-90 = warm

    65-80 = perfect

    50-65 = mild

    32-50 = chilly

    10-32 = cold

    Anything below 10 = cold as fuck

    By your definition, Minneapolis gets 3 months of cold as fuck and another 1-2 of cold.  Source- I live in this ice encrusted place.

    If Minnesota could get their fanbase to care, I think they could take off quicker.  Get some more donor money flowing in, and build some investment in the program.  Minnesotans just don't give a shit about the Gophers.  It's always puzzled me.  If they could regularly draw crowds, I think it would help the recruiting as it's a beautiful campus with a beautiful stadium located (nearly) downtown in a big city.

    Minnesota high school football sucks so it's not like they can just lock down the state and have the talent they need.  That means they have to convince some southerners to come up there and that's a tough sell.

  4. This is the only thread I was sure would make it over.  I've relied on this thread and the spouses one for the last 3 years and they've been a lifesaver in helping me figure out the monster I was dealing with.

    On a side note, I see bear kept his name.  Thought for sure he was going to change it but I think it was a good idea to keep it- too much street cred with that name in the area of alcoholism to change it know.  Now where is twice?

  5. I'm glad this thread made it over.  That thread changed my life.  I occasionally have to still shit in an office bathroom and use paper and my starfish screams at the indignity of it.  Just get one, trust me.
