  1. I heard that was good did you like it? I am reading 'chega de saudade' a history of bossa nova and the music scene in Brasil in the 50s and 60s....it reads like a novel...in english its called "Bossa Nova: The Story of the Brazilian Music That Seduced the World" sounds kinda boring but its not... marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  2. Okay, I recognize him now from the picture! I thought that chain smoking old geezer hanging out at the dz with those crazy dogs was Tami's grandpa staying with her while she is looking for a good oldfolks home for him.... maybe I should invite him on a skydive, if he is still able to...... marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

  7. nothing can compare with the home sales and prices last year! that was a feeding frenzy! older homes in my neighborhood sold for absurd prices. "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  8. I wasn't saying your link was in error....I visited it for awhile and appreciate your posting it. Then I visited the Malevsky site and figured I'd post the link to that meet too since it is coming up soon. Its fun to follow the action while working!
  9. I couldn't find the draw on that site... btw, the Malevsky Cup website is: http://www.malevskycup.ru/index_eng.shtml GO TEAM SYNCHRONICITY!!! marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  10. well congrats! We were on that load too, but after it got put on weather hold we stayed around till it started raining so we tossed our gear into the car and drove home. Glad you got it going, I know there were alot of muff bros and other fun zhills gang to fall into the humid florida sky alongside you. Every skydive is fun, even if it goes a bit past the planned one, as long as everybody flew safely and everyone had a good laugh over celebratory beers! You'll get pied soon enough...keep looking over your shoulder it can happen anytime!! Did you find a video guy for your jump? Put it online for us!!!

  11. hmmm....what makes you think that? Too much hanging around the church of muffmuffmuff? "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  12. mark you have too much time on your hands now you are turning into a postwhore quickly! but it is always fun to read what you have to say....I liked what you wrote about clouds the other day.... see ya tomorrow at zoohills.... marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton

  15. Welcome to zoohills, we can always appreciate a monkey added to the bestiary. See you this weekend! marc and alysse "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  16. GO TO SCHOOL! ANY KIND OF SCHOOL! Do you like banging on keyboards? Get some kind of tech coursework. Doesn't have to be certification, just get good at some IT stuff. You can learn mostly at home.... BUT! Don't just study for the kind of work that can get done cheaper in China!! The DZ will always be there, waiting for your $$$ on the weekends! good luck, marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  17. You also left out the option....the beer rush after skydiving! marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  18. I agree with your change for the poll. I wear my ring, but I wear gloves. I wouldn't want to wear it without using gloves. Doing wind tunnel you learn not to (when you learn NOT to grab the net)!! But Alysse takes hers off, even though she wears gloves.... of course her's have stones in them too....

  19. Actually, if I remember correctly, they didn't meet on DZ.com They met one evening while sharing tunnel time in Orlando with alysse, me, and jraf. Boxman was coaching. Afterwards we all went out for dinner. They hit it off quickly! Congrats you two! What took so long? Marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  20. just make sure to check your closing pin! thats a big tail on that jet! "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  21. weather was so cloudy and rainy here in sarasota that we stayed home this weekend. Did you do crew from 10K under the clouds? "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  22. As mentioned in the article, the price is lower depending on the bottle it is in. So instead of a bottle of gold, silver, platinum etc, if it was in a glass bottle it would probably cost under $100... "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  23. ZHills regular Bill Doyle did some skydives at Burning Man a couple years ago. For months afterwards said he was still shaking the sand out of his canopy! "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
  24. Hey, I should have put this in Speakers Corner! I just posted it for a laugh! marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton
