  1. You slam on the brakes too? Welcome to my world! Nope, no personalized plate at the moment. Had one the said "EARGASM" when I owned a custom stereo install shop, but those are in here, not on a car. I plan on getting "Rev" plates, eventually, but they will be WI plates!

  5. logs me in just fine..... Try this: ftp://www.skydivingmovies.com/ edit: Thanks Andy. Ya beat me to this one. p.s. Thinking about dumping my cable modem, even though I get such high speeds (eventually they're gonna catch on). What do you think about the wireless standard based on utilizing both the 2400 and 5725 MHz bands? They are offereing 1024k in both directions for 10 bucks a month less than I'm paying now.....

  6. I'm from the land of Beer, Brats, and Cheese. As one well known comic put it: I grew up on beer. Now, it depends on what I am drinking. Any decent import (I prefer Heineken), and I start getting a buzz around 6-8 beers. Watered down local stuff (ex. Bud Light) I feel the buzz around a 12 pack. Hard Liquor......if mixed properly, I'll go all night with a slight buzz, while shots do me in after 5 or 6 (if I'm drinking beer a the same time). Wine....Ha! My father and I take a JUG of port or a dark red with us ice fishing, finish it, and come home for more. Not even a buzz, but it does keep us warm inside.... I never realized how bad we were up here until I started traveling and drinking with others around the country. When Peanut over on the wreak says "Never try to outdrink a cheesehead" he ain't kidding. EDIT: p.s. I'm only about 5'10" and 160 pounds too. It's your life, live it!

    Reserves

    It was in a brand new Javelin, and the main had less than 50 jumps on it. I'm not saying the main didn't flare well, it did. I'm saying the reserve flared with more power. That 146 is the smallest non ZP I've flown, but I have flown sub 120 ZPs. I know they fly different, no need to bring that up. Just wanted to point out that I have no gear fear in anything I own at the moment. I'm not complacent by any means, but I'm not afraid of any of it either. It's your life, live it!

  14. Opinions vary. Sangiro, I have been following this thread for some time, and have seen both sides of this argument. Thank you for unlocking the thread. I have no personal griefs with any of the posters here, but it seems at least one other person may. From a previous post: The actual post it came from was by Treetop, but is not something Treetop posted. I personally believe this statement goes above and beyond a personal attack to border on a threat. In fact, I personaly would consider it a threat, but it was not directed at me. Here is the link to the actual post: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=282655#282655 Yes, a poster was threatened by a moderator. Is this what you envisioned when you created the site? Is it really all that different than news:rec.skydiving? In my eyes, the only difference is this was posted by a moderator. Your moderator. In your forum. What does this say about you? I do enjoy coming here to your forums. Just please remember that we are all supposed to be equals, except for you. If I were to threaten a moderator, I would be kicked and/or banned very quickly. What happens when it is a moderator that does the threatening? Nothing so far. It's your life, live it!

    Reserves

    I don't know about that, dude. I little over a year ago I was jumping rental gear at Skydive IL in Morris. The rental gear I was using was PD170s in Javelins. Made 4 jumps that day. On the 3rd, I had packed myself a VERY hard pull, and eventually went silver. The reserve was a relief, to say the least. I brought the baby down and stuck it in the peas though, and it had considerably more flare power than the 170 had, and it was a PD143R. Now, after that very good experience, the PD126R is in the main rig, and the cricket 145 is in the backup/loaner rig. It's your life, live it!

  18. i wouldn't say a joke, but i do know that there really is a unlimited amount that grant could get. he just said that i think to get more people to buy the dvd. later Yea, that's what I thought. Ya know, on the website I watched the "countdown" drop into single digits.... Got to Rantoul, and watched person after person filling out the order form for the DVD. Yep, I felt pretty stupid at that point. I saved shipping, but "Limited Edition"? Hardly. It's your life, live it! Karma RB#684 "Corcho", ASK#60, Muff#3520, NCB#398, NHDZ#4, C-33989, DG#1
