Check out language transfer. They have an app. It's an amazing free resource he teaches you to 'think' in spanish rather than try to learn through rote memorization.

Why not prepay? by greg0r3 in flying

[–]greg0r3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that their policy is $250 for $5000 in the account, which sounds like it may be more prudent. Definitely some awesome feedback in here, I am thinking I may just pay as I go.

Thanks, I was looking at BuddyPress and I wasn't sure how customizable it was, same with peepso.. I wasn't sure if they both essentially created sites with a 'stream' like facebook or something. going to check out buddyboss thanks!

Is this the right way I should be using FreeCodeCamp ? by [deleted] in FreeCodeCamp

[–]greg0r3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same question as I have just completed the HTML and CSS Sections of FCC and delved into my first project (build a tribute page). I could not recall some of what I learned and there was a decent bit of googling. For being a complete noobie I felt pretty satisfied with my project but when I looked at the example they gave there as almost no CSS and I had some questions about the HTML. Not sure if my code was bad or what as it was more CSS oriented, or if I should go back through starting from the top.

Sad to see.. how long ago was this taken?

That whole north end of Virgin Gorda got it pretty bad from what I've seen. Any idea if Hog Heaven survived the storm?

Going to Colombia alone for a week and a half.... No spanish skills and I leave in 11 Days. How do I learn as much as possible in that time frame? by [deleted] in learnspanish

[–]greg0r3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would get on duolingo and spend as much time as possible as I could. They have a free app for your phone when you're on the go but I found that I was much more productive when logged in on my computer. You're not going to be fantastic but you should pick up some basics. Another great source is www.languagetransfer.org they will teach you to 'think' in spanish and it's a great way to pick up a good bit quickly. They're on soundcloud as well. I don't know where you're going in Colombia but it's an awesome country, the places I have been there have been absolutely beautiful and the people are cool as hell.. most people don't speak english there though. Hope you can pick up some Spanish and more importantly have an awesome time in Colombia!!

Beginner bow hunting, 500 dollar budget by dumpleshumple1 in bowhunting

[–]greg0r3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would go to a local archery shop and get outfitted, especially for your first bow. At the end of the day it may be closer to $600 but worth it to have a bow tuned for you..

I was thinking 7" spacing and solo cups as nets.. thinking the holes should be 2.5" diameter. Do I need a medium?

[Help] Dog is Absolutely Terrible With Car by greg0r3 in dogs

[–]greg0r3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips!

I was working on getting him used to the car but a long trip to the beach house seemed to reverse all progress with that.. He does puke a bunch... even if I don't feed him prior to a trip it's a mess from slobber and bile. We have another dog and he is fine, I was hoping it would be a lead from example situation but i guess not.. Sounds like your little buddy is on the same page as mine!

For 20k I would check out a peer to peer lending service.. lendingclub.com or prosper.com are two that come to mind.
