I always thought I wanted to jump off El Capitan in Yosemite. Had a friend who did it. This guy was the very definition of "No Fear." After he did it, he told me it was the scariest moment of his life.

I had a friend who jumped off Glacier Point with a hang glider strapped to his back. The video from his helmet cam is what has made me always say I think I'd be willing to do it, myself.

I have to see if I can find some of my old skydiving videos. Of course they're so old they're on VHS tape.

I just want to be able to name a folder by the event. Like Prom Night, Trains, etc. So when I go into my Pictures folder I can see what I have categorized by subject, not just all by date.

That is what keywords are for. Tag the photos as Prom, "Church Prom" or something similar. Enter the search term and every Prom photo will show up....if you only want the ones from this year, you just search the 2012 folder. Very easy.

Had the opportunity to ride one of these (external link) this afternoon. All I can say is wow! Very cool, but way out of my budget.

Nice!

I'm not a huge Trek fan... but I certainly wouldn't be upset having a Madone. :lol:

A ride on one of these might change your mind. I only got to do about a 3/4 mile loop around the parking lot.....but it was easy to tell it was a fine piece of machinery. Did the real test on one of these....http://www.trekbikes.c​om …ss/fx/7_5_fx_di​sc....very (external link) different from my mountain bike....and way faster. Went from my usual pokey 11-12 mph on the mountain bike to just over 18 mph average for a 5 mile ride.
