Nope...haven't had the pleasure. All though I did hear that you were at Elsinore this past weekend, but due to my hard opening, I was being babied and taken home to be tossed into a hot tub by Michele so I missed you. Life is short!

Thigh highs are back in fashion as long as you're wearing a garter belt and/or have the seem up the back of the leg. And, actually, the thigh-high boots are not in fashion when naked. It's the 4" spiked heels that are the fashion when naked. And, yes, Rosa....SkyMama is gorgeous! Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably.

People who pack your reserve are FAA certified riggers and must go through intensive training and testing before they get their certification. And, there are no guarantees in this sport - mals happen. Or, did you ever stop and think that they have done it so many times that they can do it safely in that amount of time? My first pack job that I did took 1 hour. My current time is about 10-15 minutes depending on how much BS'ing I do while packing. I can see doing a pack job in 5 minutes. It's all a matter of time and experience. You'll learn to pack your own main as part of your training. Then, with the concerns you've stated, just pack your own main. And, in time if you so choose, become a rigger so you can pack your reserve. Enjoy the skies! Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably.

Chris, I give and expect the same kind of hugs that Michele gives and expects. So...full body contact, tight hug, one of those "I've just been hugged hugs."

I've taken a canopy control class with Scott Miller (PD). On one of the jumps you do, he does ask that you try and stall your canopy - not only with the risers but also with the lines. He does have you pulling higher to deal with any possibilities that may happen. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably.

A French teacher was explaining to her class that in French, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine. "House" is feminine -- "la maison. " "Pencil" is masculine "le crayon." A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?" Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups male and female and asked them to decide for themselves whether "computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for their recommendation. The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the feminine gender ("la computer"), because: 1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic; 2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else; 3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and 4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your pay check on accessories for it. The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be masculine ("le computer"), because: 1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on; 2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves; 3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; 4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model. The women won. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly!

I don't think many people start a relationship out thinking "This is the one!" I think they do (or at least I do) evaulate that individual as a potential long term relationship. Going into a relationship evalutating whether "He likes to eat potato chips in bed" is this something that could/could not be handled is not putting pressure on a relationship. It's just an honest evaluation of what will work for you. Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably.

It's real simple. Stay in SoCal and jump with me.
