    Is anyone....?

    yup...post-whoring on dz.com actually improves your multi-tasking abilities and makes you a more valuable asset to the company you work for yup, i've added it to my resume - certainly it'll help in the future!

  2. *** uuhhh, I forgot that one.... that's my fav!! (if made correctly, w/ just a splash of that non-alcoholic stuff) emmhmmm - YUMMY! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  3. 2.5K is comfortable. just to practice the "out the door" opening, i like cross-countries. that way there's no unnecessary risk, but you still get the quick pull practice. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  4. tell me about it!! how grown up is getting married?!?!?! Guess it'll be nice knowing some "adults" may be the'll buy some booze for us There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  5. True, on benches you lean sideways & are squished between people. Most ppl @ my dz lean backwards & put their rear hand on the shoulder of the person next to them. Also, only the very rear benches (ie. first large group out the door) get folded up - that helps keep the plane balanced as well - and gives room to get exits set up. On the floor you get your leg squished into the wall, very uncomfortable w/ booties on, leg cramps & having to be careful to not get one of you handles pulled by the person behind you. Besides the fact that if it's a very full load, having the 20+ lb rig of the person in front of you put in your lap isn't the most comfortable way to sit for a ride up anyway. I stay w/ the $17 friday location - much rather sit on a prober bench - sorry sunshine. At Space Center in Titusville, they have the benches you straddle - those were the best! It's just very difficult to wear a seatbelt unless you route it through your leg strap. But you get to sit upright the whole ride & your legs don't get squised. There is no can't.

    MR FERRET

    Did your roommates say they would take care of/watch/not lose your ferret? If so... 1. get new roomies & 2. take the cost of emotional damage/ferret insurance out of their hide - grrr... mean people suck. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear.

    100TH!

    Congradulations!! It is great to cross that 3 digit mark FINALLY - isn't it? There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  11. Being newer skydiver... I always start w/ "I really don't know anything, but was wondering if/why/how...." There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  12. Dude - Blahr... I was just talking about Sneetches @ the dz this weekend!!!! I walked up & a few friends (belly fliers) told me I had to get on the next load cause one of the free fliers was looking for someone to jump w/ & neither party was really that interested in him doing a belly jump (all said in good natured kidding of course). I said we're like the sneetches, some free fliers & some belly fliers & we all have to get along.... anyway, haven't hears/seen that in so long I was suprised I thought of it & thought it was funny to see your quote here. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  13. My thoughts & hope to his family. I don't trust anyone in the world in which I exist. However, in my skydiving world... where I LIVE... I do trust. It took time to learn trust, it is horrible that someone took advantage of the openness of the dz community. Just this weekend I was talking w/ a friend that had left some stuff lying around 1 whole week & it was right were she had left it. No where else can I think this would happen. About 99% of the people on my dz leave their rig out during a jumping day. Quite a few of us have it put away, but not locked up over night. I've been meaning to get a lock, but for insurance - not for threat of my life... this is horrible, horrible shocking news that gives me chills & makes my blood run cold. The only answer is sever scrutiny of gear prior to boarding the plane. And also having to question everyone you don't completely know that may show up @ the dz. I'm not sure if I'd want to survive/be in a world where paranoia is required. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)

    cyborg?

    Two penis's are walking down the road. Accross the street @ a stop sign one notices a vibrator - he points to it & says "Look a cyborg". There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  15. thanks so much!! hope you had a most excellent Canada day! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  16. That is such the perfect way for it to happen!! I love it!! So great & super spontaneous - WONDERFUL REALLY!! Hmmm, raincoats may be appropriate... you'll never know till it hits you There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show)
  17. Well, I didn't want to see it... but let my s/o chose what to see... considering the fact that I saw T2 about 2 years ago & never saw the original, I'm not the typical "terminator" fan, though I do like action flicks. This was really good!! I'd see it again . The girl was hot... John Conor was perfect - little wimpy lost boy that seems to come into himself when he realizes his destny has cought up w/ him - as was Clair Danes (even though she looks in her mid 30s) & it's amazing to see Arnold look so good being older than my DAD! and the special effects were really cool - not unrealistic, just kick ass. There seems to be a lead up to a sequel... but it's not necessary & I hate it when they're necessary (read Matrix Reloaded) There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear.

  21. OMG THAT'S SO AWESOME!!! HOLY COW!! THAT'S SO AWESOME... I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY. Wish you guys were going to be here this weekend to "correctly" congratulate you - guess will have to wait. A few weeks back in some other thread you made some random comment that hinted @ this...

  25. One other thing... I heard a trainer once say that you can run half again as far as you've trained for... so Val, you could actually run 4.5 miles. Also, half the battle is knowing your body can actually do the work for the time required.... you're already there baby!! There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear.
