A University professor was giving a lecture on 'Involuntary Muscular Contractions' to his first year medical students. Realizing this was not the most riveting subject,the professor decided to lighten the mood slightly. He pointed to a young woman in the front row and said,'Do you know what your ass hole is doing while you're having an orgasm?' She replied,'probably out fishing with his buddies.' It took 45 minutes to restore order in the classroom........

I'm happy with it. They are selling them, you just need to send Liam an email. I think it ended up being about $250 US including shipping.

I have one by Deepseed. It has worked great so far.

Where can I get raw foam that they use for ear plugs? I was thinking about using it to fill in part of my camera box to make it a bit more snug. Thanks, Scott

I would guess that the format is different. iMovie saves to quicktime files, where windows media saves to wmv.

We may have a few people coming out this weekend if you are still around.

The new macbooks/ macbook pros come with a firewire 800. From what I understand, you will need an 800 to 4-pin like this one: http://www.cablestogo.com/product.asp?cat_id=606&sku=50706

"im not going to put something on my head that might damage my neck" Then you probably won't be jumping any cameras. Putting a video and still adds considerable weight, no matter how "light" they are. It is how you prepare and handle your equipment when it is on your head from in the plane until you take it off on the ground.

I have them on my DS FF pants. They don't get in the way at all, and are very sturdy. I mainly shoot video and got the grippers on the pants for the occasional fun jump. They have worked great. I would say get them.

Nice, now you need to see the movie "Holiday Inn"

I would make the phone # scroll the other way. Other than that, I like it.

I had my XF1 loaded @ 2.0 spin up like that on me while shooting 4Way. I think it was 9 or 10 twists. It flew straight and level. Pulled at 4K got out the twists by 2500. I have had my Xaos have about 4 twists and fly straight and level. Have also had 1.5 twists that put me parallel to mother earth. Able to clear them all with plenty of altitude. With camera, you are usually pulling a little higher, which is a good thing. It gives you a little more time to get everything worked out.

My first 2 jumps with a camera.
HSPScott replied to Tuna-Salad's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
The scariest thing about that whole 'kill zone' idea? If you ever get into shooting 4-way teams, those areas you refer to as 'kill zones' suddenly become known as 'where you need to be'. I'll second that. I had a two canopies come at me. -
36 first try.

A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport . After it reached a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the intercom, 'Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Flight Number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles . The weather ahead is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. Now sit back and relax... OH, MY GOD!' Silence followed, and after a few minutes, the captain came back on the intercom and said, 'Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry i f I scared you earlier. While I was talking to you, the flight attendant accidentally spilled a cup of hot coffee in my lap. You should see the front of my pants!' A passenger in Coach yelled, 'That's nothing. You should see the back of mine!'

What are the standard dims on the FTP plate??

"The MAC Drones will push to get you to join the Cult of Apple. If you place Style over substance, then that may very well be the way to go." If you compare what the Mac comes with system wise and have to upgrade a PC to that, the Mac is not any more expensive. The pc "upgrades" are just standard on a MAc. " You can run most Business application on a Mac in a PC Emulation mode". Not emulation mode, you can actually boot straight to windows if you have to. Also, PC magazine tested the laptops out there and the MacBook Pro was the fastest at running Windows Vista. "A MAC is much simpler to use than a PC.. That is because you simply cant do as much with it" Only most of the major movies are edited on them. You canpretty much do anything on a Mac that you can do on a pc.

Just remember that white gets dirty and shows the most dirt.

Also look at Sketchers.

I use 2 Pelican 1620s. One for rigs and one for cameras & FTP. If I remember, Ill snap some pics. I do remember that for the camera setup, I got 1 1600 insert and 1 1500 insert. That way the helmet fits on one side, with all the camera stuff in two trays.

I agree with the El Famous Burrito and add LaBamba Burrito in the Chicago area. In Austin, Moe's and Freebirds blow away Chipotle. Just my $.02.
