    Fuck the cruise lines. They register their ships in foreign countries to avoid US laws and taxes.

    I hadn't thought about it that way, but you are right. Most of my guns are 30+ years old and for what I like there isn't much difference today. I'm not a pistol fan, probably because I lack serious training, and I don't care for semi auto rifles. In fact the last firearm I've purchased was a Beretta 1301 12 ga. a couple years ago and that was just to upgrade my home defense shot gun from a standard Beretta 12 ga. I can't understand the logic of having 50 guns, and more all of the time, unless you want to force them to bring a truck when confiscation happens.

    So with a huge number of DZ's now shut and likely all shut within weeks if not days what to do? Browse social media, get depressed.... No? How about you decide what 2 sets of skills you really need to learn about: 1. Core survival skills; e.g. what to do in a 2 out, landing out, wingsuit malfunction, tail hang up, first aid for jumpers, the list is endless 2. Flight skills, whether canopy or human flight, e.g. how basic canopy aerodynamics work, the affect of pressure, temp, humidity, elevation on your canopy. The mental drills and physical drills for safe approach or breakoff in your discipline? There is a huge amount of info our there and from trusted sources whether proven credible individuals or companies, organisation, set out what you want to learn and set out a programme, the resources are in written word, audio and high quality video, images. Lets use this time to learn and keep our minds current and hopefully in 2-3 months (fingers crossed) we are back in the air and have a safe sharp mindset. All the best and stay safe but have fun. Feel free to respond with links to great resources e.g.: Canopy Handling/skills/general resources: https://www.performancedesigns.com/resources/ https://www.nzaerosports.com/blog/?v=79cba1185463 Awesome interview series: https://thefuckinpilot.net/ Cheers Fraser Insta:@verticalflyer2020

    WaPo: President Trump made 16,241 false or misleading claims in his first three years https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/01/20/president-trump-made-16241-false-or-misleading-claims-his-first-three-years/ I'm sure they were all just honest mistakes.

    It's finally time for the flowbee to shine. Anything involving the help of your husband and a shop vac is bound to result in a good haircut.

    ... Or if you're not quite as disciplined, at least go watch some Friday Freakouts? The BPA (now BS) has some good manuals on some disciplines. Others can perhaps add some other good online sources.

    I don't see this one as trolling. An opening question for discussion is a conversation. My question to my fellow 2A right enthusiasts is this: You don't have enough guns after twenty years for the zombie apocalypse now? Really? After all these years? Ok, Slick - how much ammunition have you got for each caliber? Maybe you ought to rethink your priorities. Like, save your money for when cash is king? Some of these retards are buying as many guns as their credit cards will allow. Does that make any sense to anyone?

    Very misleading. Republicans have been unable to smell stink for 31/2 years now.

    Substituting one substance abuse for another is not really dealing with the problem. Sorry but if you really believe the stuff you post here, you’ve got a major disconnect with reality. I have seen so called ‘christian’ counselling cause major damage to people, mental health issues need to be dealt with by trained professionals. And before Coreece and co, get their noses bent out of shape, my experience is with Christians. I’m sure other religions have their fair share...

    Everyone, The reality is that, except for lap dances at your favorite strip club, few businesses press their customers together as we do. This is no time to pretend that we know better or are different. Nor is it a time to believe this will be over in two weeks. We'll still be Skydivers a month or two months from now. Let's all just stay chill, not press the issue or our DZO's and find another muse for a couple of months. That's being smart.
