You are a skydiver if...

hey all......i know that there are a TON of these things, but I dont recall seeing this one:
All of us from the DZ were at Chili's the other day talking about exit weight and wing loading over some beers and Long Islands, and I noticed something------->
You are a skydiver if, when asked your weight, you give your exit weight....and you have to subtract your gear weight to remember your "real" weight.
Any more original entries out there??

"You're a skydiver if your reply to the g/f when she moans about what to do the last weekend you're home before you go away for 5 weeks, when you want to jump, and she wants to be home and do "things"
:...but hunny, I'll be away from my chute 5 weeks too...."

The cost of everything you do is compared to how many jumps you can purchase.
An example is having your hair professionally done would cost about $75.00. That is 3 jumps and enough money to buy beer!

There's a load of these on this web site I found - http://www.afn.org/skydive/humor/

You know you're a skydiver when half your friends are pilots and you're constantly begging them for a "ride up" when they do their commercial flights.

You've ever used a hook knife to release a stubborn bra strap.
You've ever told your jumping buddies "Pray for me - I'm flying commercial" before a vacation.
When sitting in an exit row, you hold your copy of Parachutist or Skydiving so that the flight attendants can clearly see what you're reading.

Driving to the DZ last week, my speedometer was on 185 999 miles. My first thought was what to organize, then when it clocked 186 000 I shouted 'Beer!' and considered pie-ing my dashboard. About then I realized I need to get my car radio fixed....

Skreamer,
go ahead and pie the dashboard...then when you have finished a good hard day of skydiving, you will have something to eat that (in warm climates) will be nice and toasty for you...

How about when all your vacations spots are within driving distance from a DZ (or in extreme cases a windtunnel). People planning their honeymoon this way may need professional help.
