OK I hate FUCKIN POLITICS!! Seen FD's not cross coumty lines with their jaws a life because a it,, When I graduated from college,, a frigin white dude, couldn't get a job in AZ,, ya had ta be anything but me ta be considered,, hate the papers and news media,, tore the film outta a camera once while this prick was tryin ta change film in the back a our ambulance!!,, even the weathercasters blow it most the time,, when something I'm involved in makes the news they fuck it up! Big time,, so when I see something I don't know the facts on it makes me wonder what really happened,, don't get the paper, don't know if I'm left or right when it comes ta that shit,, My PC sucks!! Don't know a DSL from a BFD,, but hay,, when I jump.. it don't matter,, nothin else does,, and thats what I love about it!! Where do I sign up for the beer party,, Sorry ta rant,, didn't get ta jump today Watered my grass today,, now it's raining,,,

Hay Screamer,, Glad she landed ok,, last week I pulled a 3 and looked down,, saw a bud in a track that looked like he was tryin ta find the bulls eye in the movie "cutaway",, ya it scared the hell outta me,, on the ground he said he was open by 2,, he has a shit load a jumps,, but from where I was it was scary,, thinkin PULL PULL PULL!! told me when your under canopy and look at someone still in ff,, ya they haul ass,, guess it was just a different perspective a things,, didn't Einstein say that?? Blues Bro,, and have fun in FLA!!!

Hot!! Froze 2 fingers last weekend,, hurt like hell,, packin your rig with numb fingers and sweatin everywhere else,, and ,, "know that PC is there some where!,, it was nice at ground zero,, but at alt it was friggin cold,,

Starting at the begging a this thread let me say this,, my "X' is a teacher,, and because of the friggin LAWYERS in the US discipline is out the window,, the chicken shit school boards and teachers are scared ta smack a whuffo kid for bein a prick,, and theres a lot a lazy ass parents out there that expect the schools to raise there kids,, guns! Shit they shouldn't be allowed ta reproduce!! Frank and Pammi (?) your lucky ta live in a place where ya feel safe,, I too often leave doors unlocked and key's in the car,, my folks tho have bars on the windows and door's, my sis carries a gun in her purse, my lil bro a shotgun loaded under the bed,, I shot 299 outta 300 with my .357 mag,, but sold it ta get a good camera ta take picts of my daughter when she was born,, I was an NRA instructor in all kinds a guns,, I been in EMS for over 20 years,, believe me,, humans don't need guns ta mess someone up if thats what they wanna do,, Oh and don't knock the Canadian's,, shit they died with us on the same side in WW 2,, I wanna post this while I'm thinkin of it,, think Wingie and the like will get a boost from it... ""This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing. America: The Good Neighbor. Widespread but only partial news coverage was given recently to a remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian television commentator. What follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as printed in the Congressional Record: "This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans as the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people on all the earth. Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy were lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts. None of these countries is today paying even the interest on its remaining debts to the United States. When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be insulted and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it. When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities were flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped. The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those countries are writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans. I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane. Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10? If so, why don't they fly them? Why do all the International lines except Russia fly American Planes? Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man or woman on the moon? You talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios. You talk about German technocracy, and you get automobiles. You talk about American technocracy, and you find men on the moon - not once, but several times -- and safely home again. You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right in the store window for everybody to look at . Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are here on our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking Canadian laws, are getting American dollars from ma and pa at home to spend here. When the railways of France, Germany and India were breaking down through age, it was the Americans who rebuilt them. When the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York Central went broke, nobody loaned them an old caboose. Both are still broke. I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced to the help of other people in trouble. Can you name me even one time when someone else raced to the Americans in trouble? I don't think there was outside help even during the San Francisco earthquake. Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one Canadian who is damned tired of hearing them get kicked around. They will come out of this thing with their flag high. And when they do, they are entitled to thumb their nose at the lands that are gloating over their present troubles. I hope Canada is not one of those." Stand proud, America! Wear it proudly!! This is one of the best editorials that I have ever read regarding the United States. It is nice that one man realizes it. I only wish that the rest of the world would realize it. We are always blamed for everything, and never even get a thank you for the things we do.

Hay Michelle,,, Your story brought a tear ta my eye's too,, it was written incredibly well considering the state ya must have been in,, Hell I wouldn't have been able ta type squat!! You have ta let us know about your NEXT jump OK!! Lady YOU ROCK!! You obviously had some good instructors and were a good student,, I agree with ya that hearin stories here and gettin as much info as possible probably helped ya in makin your decision and reactin just like ya should have,, Cheers to you and Sangiro both!! Happy landings,, Sweat Dreams,, Oh and BIG OL HUGS and KISSES!! Billy ; )

Frined of mine sent me this today,, B:::: Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love this!!!! I was listening to the radio the other day, and I heard one of the all-time best comeback lines in my life. Note: This is an exact replication of a National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster, and US Army General Reinwald who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military installation. FEMALE INTERVIEWER: So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?" GENERAL REINWALD: We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting." FEMALE INTERVIEWER: "Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?" GENERAL REINWALD: "I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range." FEMALE INTERVIEWER: "Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?" GENERAL REINWALD: "I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm." FEMALE INTERVIEWER: "But you're equipping them to become violent killers." GENERAL REINWALD: "Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?" The radio went silent and the interview ended. And all I could think was,"Go Army"!!

Bwaahaahaa!! Free Willy!! Ready!!,,, Set!! Oh shit it's cold out here!! Gotta admit I'm pretty shy,, and somehow the thought of Willy and the boy's gettinn slapped up around Uranus just sounds painful,, how would this affect the hump load scale??,, do ya need recovery time?? Any "swelling"??

SMACK SMACK SMACK!! Oh that felt good!! It is ok ta smackem more than once ain't it??

Playmate well said!! One of the things I like most about this sport is definately the people,, safety first,, fun second! Our DZ is little and the experianced jumpers are often on loads with guy's like me,, but they are always willing to teach,, I said in another post I biffed 2 jumps Sunday,, but they just laughed and said they've been there,, gave me pointers,, and said if your gonna blow a dive do it "BIG"!! I'm at the point I feel I need ta try the new stuff but don't want ta blow it for others paying for a jump,, so I really appreciate it when they take the time for me,, I feel motivated to do better ya know,, so cheers to Olav and friends,, showin us what is possible and how ta be humble,,, OH an Omri,, what the hell is that anyway!?? Be Safe,, Have Fun,, Sweet Dreams!! B

OK,, may I propose a modification to the Hump loading scale: 1/1:1:1/12 = one "session"/one orgasm: one jump: bought 1 case/consumed 1/2 case 0/1:1:2/? = sad solo session/one orgasm: 1 jump: 2 cases of beer/ don't remember 1/3:4:1/6 = One good session: 4 jumps: 1 case/6 beers Or would that be too complicated???

Oh shit!! I better see what we use,, still renting gear and often spiral down to about 700-800 ft,, after about 3 turns I can feel the blood going ta my feet and plane out,, any idea how fast your goin at that point?? thanks for the info,, ya may have saved me a case a beer for a reserve ride and a repack,, or is that 2 cases?? Man I can't wait ta jump close to some puffy cumulous type clouds!! Of course I'd stay the required distance from them,, of course of course,,, B

1:4:1 Oh,,,, and I think Sangiro should get this on the site as a weekly update so we can all keep track of each others progress!! Man I totally blew 2 of my jumps,, #'s 44 and 45,, 3- way then a 5 way track dive,, I hate this learning bit!! But I did learn a bunch,, and so it goes! B

Hay ya don't have fear of high places,, its the low places that'll get ya,, Yea the Grand Canyon is just too big and looks more like a picture,, and from the plane door it's kinda the same thing,,, ya don't feel like your falling outta a plane at 12.5K,, already goin 80-100kts,, more like ya just stepped inta a wind tunnel,, " hell half the things in life a like give me a little scare",,, quote from a rodeo clown goin in ta face a 2000 lb Bull for 70 secs,, now thats crazy!! Shut up and JUMP!! Soft Landings,, Blue ones,, Sweet Dreams,, B

Tiger,, yea the flag and the 30ft long streamers are stowed in lil stuff like saks with 3 ring releases on'em,, after they are under canopy they release the streamers,, this flag gets snapped to the lines off the rear riser,, the smoke canisters are strapped to the lower leg over a thick leather pad ta keep the jumper from gettin his jumpsuit hot,, ground crew maintains radio contact with the plane as to conditions at the DZ and catches the flag, and keeps the chute and lines from gettin close to the still hot smoke canisters until we can get that thing off the leg and away from there,, Ya Frank it was cool,, MI opening eh! Like ta see that video!! B

"Boogie" Its a verb.. "Haulin ass" ta the DZ,, with out gettin a ticket that could cost ya 3 or more jumps "Snivel" What chicks do ta get to the "Boogie" on time after gettin stopped by the local law enforcement,, (doesn't work for Manly head downers etc...)

Hay,, Don't forget that gear check,, ya gotta tug hard on that silver handle,, by the jumpers left titty,, make sure it aint snagged on somethin,, then ya have ta turn and track away fast!!

Ditto Zennie,, White light ta Peter and those who new him B

My Dog is named "Kitty" Stnky Bitch!! But loyal as hell and known at the DZ as the mouse catcher,, I may just have ta take her up for a jump someday!!

Hay certain things can still be arranged,, and yes the confusing directions will save ya at least almost an hour on the drive bypassing traffic areas and stop lights,, and send ya through some of the prettiest country in the NW,, I sent ya a private post on how ta handle the commercial thing,, Hugs B

Tiger, I had great "lovin" while ya's were workin before that post I made ,, doesn't change the fact she's a looker!! Ya don't have ta be a sex starved teenage,, or 20 y/o, or my age,, ta appreciate a pretty lady!!

Hay,, Just wanted ta tell ya's what our lil DZ boys did here yesterday,, we got asked to do a demo jump into a softball game in Spokane,, for women tryin ta get a spot on the Womens Softball Team for the next Summer Olympics,, it was cool!! Conditions bit,, winds 15-20+,, cloud ceiling 6500,, but made it easy ta see the jumpers,, very few outs for our 3 jumpers,, I was nervous for them!! first one in was plannin on landin near 1st base,, hit a downdraft and turbulance on his base leg,, saw a light tower coming and had ta bail behind the dugout,, missin an ESPN camera dude who said he got some great shots,, 2 & 3 came into the grass by 2nd base with folks hollerin ,, one had the game ball,, the other the flag,, which was right side up!! TV guys have no clue to what we do,, they were changin the jump time every 5 minutes,, and wanted them on the ground at just so time,, whuffo comment "OHHH NOO,, there on FIRE!!" It inspired me ta get my 500 jumps and PRO rating ta be ready when they come back in 4 years with the official Womens Team!! Looks like our DZ already has it goin to jump in again,,, ESPN is airing the game on July 5th,, so I'll have my recorder ready and let ya's know what happens!! Sweet Dreams!! Billy

Mandy has a boyfriend!?? Crap,, I was gonna have her friends have a little "trouble" at the airport in Spokane,, lost luggage,, full body searches,, nuthin serious ya know,, just enough ta spend some time with her,, then maybe be like a hero,, knight in shining armour to the rescue,, get them out in time ta get ta Lost Prairie,, but still have some,, uh,, ah,, nevermind,,, Oh shit!! I gotta make some calls to the airport!! It's Monday evening Mandy,, any news?? Did the Bimbo get the part?? (tryin ta change the subject) We all know ya deserve it!!

Hay JKA,, So good to hear from you!! Glad Sangiro kicked your ass outta the basement again!! By the way you have "Purrrfect" breasts, eye's, smile, hair,, and ,, ummm,,, shure the rest is pretty dang fine too,, don't change a thing!!

Skyhawk,, obviously the kinda ppl that can take a t-shirt thread and turn it into a discusiion of piercing sensitive body parts! LOL!! "CRINGE" I'm a wuss too Merrick,, had a vas and that is the LAST time anybody gets close ta big Jim and the Twins with a sharp object!! Nipples, tongue,, my luck it'd get infected, swell all up and get gangrene,, then I'd never be able to eat in Virginia again,, too risky for me!! SO where's the Picts Ladies!!
