iluvtofly 0 #1 January 9, 2008 So after working many midnight shifts I have realized that typically between 4am and 6am eastern time there's pretty much no one online. For about a solid hour now there's only been about 3 new posts. What's the deal? You folks on the other side of the pond should still be awake. Why aren't your posting? Edited for lack of making sense due to lack of sleep. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iluvtofly 0 #3 January 9, 2008 Yeah but you're in the same time zone as me. So it's understandable you'd be asleep. If I had a normal 9 to 5 job I probably would be to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #5 January 9, 2008 Early am is normal for me. I like to get up early am to enjoy the peace and quiet, check out the stars and just chill with my coffee...and build up my PW numbers. Oh, you poor working stiffs. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

cocheese 0 #7 January 9, 2008 It seems we scared away all the non-USA posters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladyskydiver 0 #8 January 9, 2008 Which totally sucks 'cause I enjoyed talking with quite a few of them. Just hope they're all doing well. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baksteen 84 #9 January 9, 2008 Well.. I thought, a nice little inflammatory post to get the discussion going.. But maybe I'll practice "pretending to be nice" instead.. I seem to need aforementioned practice, if last weekend is any indication. So anyway.. Er, Hi. How are you guys?"That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peej 0 #10 January 9, 2008 I'm across the pond, been on holiday for a few weeks though, back at work now so my posting should pick up Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeJD 0 #11 January 9, 2008 I think you're right. It doesn't really get lively around here before 1300ish GMT (0800 EST). I guess it just reflects the ratio of US posters to the rest of us. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My jump numbers are WAAAYYYY less than yours and they've not been able to get rid of me. Fact is, a couple of these guys kinda like me...skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACMESkydiver 0 #13 January 9, 2008 I logged off at about 1:50am. Then I was awake for another 2 hours. Dang Joe's stupid ol' business trips... I can't sleep without somebody to warm up my frozen toesies!! ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That makes it 11am - 1 pm here in SA. Seeing that I'm usually on the road during the day, that's a diffcult time to be on dizzycom.. I WILL try to post more often, though A VERY MERRY UNBIRTHDAY TO YOU!!! D.S # 125 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, you poor working stiffs. You kinda have a job. I mean you now have a dress code. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

Bolas 5 #17 January 10, 2008 The irony is probably the reason there is not much posting is because there aren't many new posts to read and respond to. It's a vicious circle.
