npgraphicdesign 3 #1 October 23, 2011 ...when you get to a DZ to meet up with some people to jump and find out the reserve is out of date. And on such a good day too....FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...ck. PS. I met jrmrangers today, and he WILL vouch that I am not a woman. And no, he did not do the Crocodile Dundee test on me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TriGirl 343 #3 October 23, 2011 I can vouch for you, too! My test? Observation. I don't believe you're qualified to be hired as the circus' new bearded lady. Thick beard, but no boobies. Conclusion: you're not a chick. And yeah, that does suck about your reserve! My worst "show up but can't jump" story was Fitz this year, although that was luck of the draw. I was in the beginning stages of a rather nasty cold (congested all weekend). Still had a great time, though! I mean, come on, it's Fitz!

shropshire 0 #5 October 23, 2011 My wife bought me a s'prise trip to Emp' a few years ago and my Reserve was out of date too and no time (couple of hours notice!!) to get my rigger to repack - but the guy at EMp did it as a priority job - (.)Y(.)
