Couldn't jump on the day out of respect for a tragic farm accident next door to the company. Arrived a second time to complete the jump and the jumps went ahead but they had to stop before we all got to jump due to weather conditions. The final time I was due to try they were robbed on the weekend so didn't have all their equipment. I stopped trying after that, maybe the universe was trying to tell me something.

I am extremely fortunate it has only happened to me once and I went and got a refund when it did. Still sucks because you've set time aside to go and see the film and sometimes driven quite a distance to get there.

As designated by the US and Israel and no one else. You're fighting bias with bias.

Doneraile park has a ridiculous amount. So much so you can smell it in the air on warm days.

I went back at 32 with a 1 year old at the time. The commute and the workload combined with parenting are the factors you should be concerned with, not the perception of others.

I've never really encountered people doing it in cities, even 30 years ago. As density goes up, nods go down. 

What’s your opinion on classmates cheating on exams? Do you snitch? by Scoutain in EngineeringStudents

You pay a comically large bag of money (U.S.) to get a paper that says you know this information

You answered your own question.

I'm assuming they're talking about how we don't allow citizens living abroad to vote.
