I am almost sure that is where he said he did it. He said it was a national park and quite a hike! He is from Rio I believe. One hell of a great guy too!! He said his brother-in-law made him do it, HAHAHA! But damn it looked like a BLAST!
If your friend / engineer made an "asa-delta" (hang glider) jump from Rio, I bet 100 Reais that it was from Tijuca. Highest point in Rio with a platform to do such a thing. Climbed it years ago as it is a national park.
Next time you see him, mention Tijuca (said pretty much the way it is spelled /Tijuka). I am sure he'll freak out as it is NOT very tourist-friendly. Beautiful beyond words, though.

Wow! BEAUTIFUL!! Hopefully someday I'll be able to see for myself how gorgeous Brazil is! The engineer that fixes one of our analyzers is from Brazil and he has shown me so many amazing pictures. Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. He also went hang gliding and showed me the video from the camera attached to him - so awesome!
@ Necro - I'm sorry to hear that you are now single, but glad that you are happier!

For your entertainment (and to put up when you make your meal from Brazil) a single pic from the other side of the Bay of Guanabara. Pretty dangerous spot to pull out a camera but the view was just too much. The "flying saucer" object you see is the MAC (Modern Art Museum) on the side of Niterói where I took the shot. Look to the upper right and you'll see Corcorvado (statue of Christ) all lit up. Rare shot. As I say, violent city across the bay. View of Rio is just the greatest, though.
Cheers, mate.

Is that what day it is?? Damn, just got back from Brazil. 29 damn hour commute door-to-door. Nice to be there, nice to be home. Now if only they could get that wormhole theory working! TWO planes diverted due to weather!
Just coming in from Rio, I have NO idea how they are going to host the World Cup and the Olympics. There is just no way. I stay on the other side of the Bay of Guanabara (non-tourist; violent city of Niterói) where a 14 km bridge connects one side to the other. I left at 6pm ... um .... yesterday (?) and it took an hour + just to cross the bridge!
Cool pix as always. Must sleep for a few days first, though.
It was great, Craigs best man speech went down well which is handy lol. Only a small wedding, but it was lovely. Good food too which I always approve of LOL!!!

Hey, if it arrived in perfect condition, I'd be happy to wait for said donkey.
As it stands, I don't know who is "más burro," Backstreet Merch or me who keeps ordering from them.
Sorry to hear about the posters. Unfortunately things can only get downhill from here unless the band finishes its last album soon. Next thing you know they'll be wrapping merch in plastic bags and ship them by donkey.

To boot, I am still pissed about the shitty packaging of both the poster and the box set.
I don't blame JP one bit. I blame the idiots "managing" this end of their business. Market the boxset to those who already own everything and not spend more than a cent in wrapping so it arrives dented?! TWO posters now unusable. Had to send me two Epitaph mugs due to a screwup?
Management and their choice in merchandising partners. Not the band. 'Nuff said.

They aren't even selling those JP earbuds and ipod covers anymore. Too bad.

I did not manage to meet him, at least not that I know of. funny though
While I understand the Metal God to be an expected outcome of "Baxtergate," it now seems to be spilling over here. No emails (knock on wood) but listing "NEW merch?" I ask again, IS there any?
So you have an admirer in Winnipeg? How cute! I can only chalk the new posts on his behalf to love for you.

Speaking of "merch," anyone else catch the new post to "new merch available" on this site in the "news" here?
Just looks like the same old merch, bundling and "on sale" items. Someone correct me if I am wrong but what, exactly, is NEW merch?!
As Necro said, looks more like a clearinghouse to me.

Just my opinion...but ain't the Halford site gone a bit OTT commercial? FFS - i thought it was about music...not crap over-priced merchandise...and the 'Live CD with $30 orders'? please...it'll be on fileshare soon anyway...if it ain't already. Get with it Rob...
