I was in Australia & actually saw a guy from England do some of this stuff... round the campfire. Then came back to Chicagoland & found I could pay to see the same thing - no thanks! Very bizzare looking I must say. Can think of many other much more enjoyable uses for cocknballs than making them look like a hamburger or whatnot. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear.

Here in the US though, we are not as dependant on our govt aid. We save our own $$ on which to retire (SS is running out incase you haven't heard). On average, we only get 3 weeks vacation & that's on the high end. And we work at least 40 hrs per week. If I knew my country would support me 100% if I became unemployed/sick/retired and got over 1 month off every year and only worked about 30 hrs a week... I might be a little more willing to pay more in taxes. However, I do not believe in equal distribution of wealth. I earned it, now I want to decide how to spend it - not let the govt decide. In the lovely world we currenly live in - one can chose in which country they wish to reside. It's the fact that no matter what the US does, we get shit for it. Isolationism is my choice . Cut the rest of the world off - we can take care of ouselves - very few other countries have this option. -> as a side note - I think this is a horrible option, I love the rest of the world, am working on filling my passport & can't imagine being stuck permanently w/in one countries borders. But some seem to be playing devil's advocate here & I thought I'd join in. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

Hopefully there won't be any unexpected flooding this year!! Looks nice, not to hot. I can't wait... my first WFFC - beer's on me (@ the tent that is). But seriously. I'll be there the first weekend, but have to work Monday & Tuesday - SO since I live in the Chicagoland area (2.5hrs away). If there are any REASONABLE requests of items people NEED that are not available in the middle of nowhere IL - let me know via PM before Tuesday morning... I'll try my best to get it to you, keep in mind being a poor skydiver w/ lots of debt - I will need to be paid back. Sorry, no free lunches here wish I could There is no can't.

Yup - I sure do know & can't wait to see how much of the light flavor almost water I can consume!! All you can drink - pahh, All you can serve But it's because I knew that I thought you'd be offering the first round. Someone has to go get it from the tent. There is no can't.

Whoo hooo!! that's awsome Andy!! How very cool - way to celebrate an advancement in your skydiving, by going back in time. Hope the landing didn't hurt & the corn didn't stab you I knew I missed something this weekend Guess you'll pay up by buying us all a round of beer @ rantoul - right? There is no can't.

Thanks for the advice everyone!! Andrea - that's a GREAT idea, will try that one. Now, just to get a few old logs signed off on. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

I have my app in for my C license, but it has not yet been received... I do have an A license & a log book w/ over 100 jumps - will this be adequate to jump @ the WFFC? There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

since that gave me a migrane... & I don't want to be fired, i'll just continue to be frustrated - that's better than not having health insurance. @ least health insurance pays for the drugs that help relieve frustration - well in a roun'bout way . thank you so very, very much for all of everyone's information! jeesh - so many smart people on here There is no can't.

I can't get that number thingie. jeez TXBlonde.... your co is rediculous! Though I was suprised I could get there as well. I should go empty out my internet/temp file shortly though. now how'd I do that the first time? hmmm There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

I don't even know the difference! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

yup, slider, not riser... have you read my sig line? I know what you mean... when 2.6 rolls round, I know my hand better be on my hackey! they really did see the whites of the observers eyes before pulling! There is no can't.

hmh. I just remember when the SweetnLow patent ran out, every one expected all kinds of copycat sweetners... don't know how that turned out. the 7 year law is to give the person that did the research time to get a return on their hard work & also hopefully build a nice chunk of market share. that's about all I know. i'm very grateful to those old time divers... crazy bunch!! On the wall of our dz there's stories of the first people there. One tells of the low pull club... the winner pulled arund 250'!! just beating the record of 275'. But most weren't that looped & pulled around 800 - 1000! But w/o risers, the openings were super fast! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

THAT'S CRAZY!! Luckily I don't think they had many/any spinning mals But I also heard they use to open VERY low... guess during gear checks they had to make sure their knives were sharp so it'd be a quick job. Now that the patent's out of date... anyone can mfg a 3-ring, right? There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

that's something I did not know. so when they opened their belly mount reserve... what happened to the main? besides, don't think i'd jump something as old as i am. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

hmmmm... & how much does this pay? that is HARSH!! the stupid bigbrotherlovin corporate nazis here have banned so many sites!! Thankfully the IT monitor guy is a guy & allows less obvious 'sex' sites, also he uses ebay & he's considering doing a tandem... so he knows how important this site is to me. plus I give him a big hug whenever I see him in the elevator There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

good thing, cause I could be jumping a round or one of the first squares ever made.... seen some of that stuff floating around the dz everynownthen ya know crazy people do crazy things! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

you wouldn't want me to REALLY!! yah, but it's after smuggling me into a country & making sure I'm not deported in the mean time. Kinda like an indentured servant type thing. But there'd have to be a time limit on it. Thankfully you're MUCH older than I & will have to stop jumping sooner or later due to old age. Now Craichead... she's younger... There is no can't.

I'm not married & use to live alone. I loved getting the "is the man of the house available" or is "Mr. Heatwole able to come to the phone". Sometimes I get people asking for the lady of the house or the main grocery shopper, I always tell them I don't go to the grocery store. Or I'm not old enough to drive & no one in my house hold is old enough. Recently got one AT WORK!! When I said I don't have time & didn't want to order the news paper he asked "If I was this rude to my boss?" Question, on what planet does he in anyway resemble my boss? ARrrrgghhh.. thank goodness I only have a cell phone now & don't get these @ home anymore!! For those living in a dorm or someother school housing... it's illegal for marketers to call you there. Let them know they're in direct violation of some blahblah order, they know the rule... just not the name. Also, they never know where they're calling. I fianlly pulled that out when I had my own place too. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
