I disagree with that. But so do you. I recognize sarcasm when I see it ;-) I know several unsung heroes from my time in the service.

CELEBRATION OF LIFE for our beloved Handsome Dave - June 29, 2019 at Maytown Sport Parachute Club. MSPC is located at Donegal Springs Airpark (N71), 188 Airport Road, Marietta, PA 17356. The celebration will begin at 3:00PM. at 4:00 there will be an ash drop at the Susquehanna River. Transportation will be arranged at MSPC as we will need to carpool. We return to the airport afterwards. Dave is providing the beer and Harvey's Bar-B-Q will be catering. Trudy extends her thanks to all for the well wishes and offers of assistance. ~from The Herd Facebook page

I got my riggers rating from Dave a long time ago. Glad I got to see him at the last Symposium. If there is going to be some sort of memorial or get together, please post when and where.

Another possible order of events. The Easter Bunny comes, leaves eggs for all the hungry and homeless children, who then go on to form a children’s army that occupies the White House, and, because of their cuteness, take over the world. Its about as likely, and has the added advantage of cute children and bunny rabbits Wendy P.

A stoner!

On the other side in Oscoda. Been there too in the beginning. Since then I typically don't play my entire bankroll at any one table. I must not be looking in the right places. Sorry to hear that. You still have downtown, it's just a nice little drive down Jefferson. It's been about 10-15 years since I've played down there. Most of the home games I've played were in the Brighton/Howell area, but I remember one home game off Trombly and 9 mile, so I guess that's not a very good sample size for your area.

Do you have any clue what the actual definition of treason is? Helpful hint: Its in the Constitution. A document you seem to disregard and ignore. The crap about Trump starting an investigation into the origins of the Russia probe have made the news. Most have reported it as a 'witch hunt' by Trump (not their words), where he is trying to show how badly he has been treated by the FBI, Mueller and the R held congress which started the investigation. While it's not treason (see above), Trumps behavior, and Barr's 'whitewashing' of the Mueller report are despicable and traitorous. He's committed impeachable offenses and is doing everything he can to avoid the consequences. I love how he has now decided to hold the entire country hostage with his pledge to not do anything on infrastructure until the 'nasty democrats' stop investigating him. Apparently he's done so much wrong that any investigations scare him into committing extortion.

Hard pass. I only "gamble" playing poker.

Pretty obvious you either have no idea what irony means, or you're just letting your personal grudges blind you to reason. But hey, maybe you support these multi-millionaire conservative christians who built a sub-standard cheap-ass road and now want their insurance company to pay for it to be upgraded to spec. Personal responsibility, right-wing USA style!

It's pretty well known that F111 PCs are more stable than ZP ones. Several manufactures have made the claim. Skydiving PCs in general are trash. If you look at BASE PCs, skydiving ones dont even compare. Skydiving PCs are made as cheaply as possible. BASE PCs are made from ZP, but they have an apex vent that makes them much more stable than any form of non-vented skydiving PC. The only skydiving PC I've seen that's halfway solid is the Squirrel SkySnatch, which is basically a small BASE PC with a killline.

Hello Meso, You R the man - signed in with Internet Explorer and all seems to be well as per the ability to reply here. A pc savvy friend of mine had me update Firefox in order to download adblock on to it. Maybe the problem is with the latest version of Firefox or having adblock blocking popups. Any ideas on that? Can't believe I figured out to do a word document to work around the problem to communicate with you. Don't want to do it again or all the time though. Thanks again for the tip. Frank

Technically this is not the wanted section so I'll assume that you're looking for advice. Not sure how long you've been away. I see a frap hat and what look like kroop goggles. You're a big boy but not ridicules. And you're licensed so you get to be a big boy. A student they would be more worried about TSO max weights and liability. Booth and some others actually build sport versions of their tandem rigs for big boys rated for 500 lb loads. In reality I would recomend that you just go with sport gear. Used... tough to find unless you go with a student rig with an adjustable harness. Unless you get really lucky on here you're probable going to have to pony up and pay for a custom rig. PD makes some large reserves. I think the PDr is larger at 281 but I'd recomend that you go with an Optimum. Even though it's a little smaller and rated a bit lower I think they are more tolerant of higher speed deployments. You have your choice of mains up to 260, any of which would be good for you, but over that you're looking at a student canopy like a navigator. No mini risers or mini rings. Only full size risers and rings for you. Lee

We have - You just don't like it.
