  4. I am kind of... well. yeah i'm addicted to dz.com I check my e's every morning first thing and have a quickpeek at the forums. I get flack from my partner about it, i must spend at least an hour a day on here. sometimes more than 2 hours, how about you guys?

  5. It is the fat cats fault, the internal combustion engine is a hundred years old, new technologies have been invented and scrapped due to the oil companies making too much money with thier monopoly. everybody wants a cleaner world, everybody wants the best for themselves and thier children. but if it effects thier income..... they're damned if they're changing thire ways! the sad thing is the fact that the corporations hold more power than the govornments so the govornments now cannot impose costs onto the corporations that produce the CO2 because those corporations own those govornments. we're fucked! I put a poll on ayear or so ago asking how long people thought that civilisation, as we know it would last? most thought it would last at least anther 500 years. at this rate?............. dreaming.

  8. as i said before if you have a rotaing mal on your back there is a chance of the reserve pilot chute being tangled with your body. as it just pops your reserve. when you are in dead air on your back. i have a friend whos reserve pilot chute came between there legs on a tandem because if the rsl. this was in africa. also if you cutaway and only one riser releases (this happens from time to time for various resons) then you get a main reserve entaglement, tandems are not allowed to have rsl's attached (with the exception of skyhooks)in New Zealand for this reason we had a fatatlity a few years ago "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  9. Cheers bro, i'm such a dumbass when it comes to computers considering i spend so much time on them. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  10. as far as i am aware the omega's faded with the alpha's and beta's gyros newer 7 cell is called an omni? i have never seen one or heard about one either. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  11. i think you misunderstood me, I like the skyhook very much but do not like the ordanary rsl, there is a chance of an entaglement with the reserve bridle! not fun. skyhooks eliminate this problem. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  12. so you were a green beret? thou shall not murder? you were training to murder for years? i have heard it all now! "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  13. if you have a rotating mal and chop while on your back then there is a chance that the reserve pilot chute can come betwen your legs, wrap with somthing and cause complications the skyhook eliminates this problem. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  14. bah, I just get tired of holier than thou christian fucks who try to lure unsespecting characters by threatening a milenia of pain and suffering if they don't abide by thier beliefs. a crock of shit, for morons. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  15. Live life for life not for death, what happens when you die? you will never know until it happens. seeing you are so easil offended i'll rephaise the message. If god was such a good fellow then he would have given the understanding to all. meaning what about the aborigonals and maori and pigmes and zulus and any other group of people that lived well before the missionaries could convey the message of god? did they all burn in hell because they were unaware of gods existance? It is all a lie, a story to keep you feeding the coins into the bag or 20% of your income dependind on your faith. you cant fool me with all the mumbo jumbo 88:12 blah blah. i have eyes and a mind that are open. i live amoungst nature and i have all respect for that nature, the sun and earth are my gods and your sexist racist, unfair, unkind wanker of a god is a crock of shit anyway! I went to a christian school and they had 5 years to convince me, they didn't in fact they proved themselves as rogues when they handed that money bag around at the end of the session! "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  16. name one reason an ordanary RSL has an advantage over a skyhook? personally i think ordanary RSL's are dodgy but a skyhook is terrific! "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  17. Chicken and vegetable pie, Grease a roasting dish with butter. then line it with filo pastry 4 sheets thick, chop 3-4 chicken breasts ito good size chunks and make a cheese sauce using the juice from the cooked chicken, chop up a red onion a green and a red capsicum and a broccoli head. Line the bottom of the pie with spinach leaves then throw in the chopped veges, put the cooked chicken in evenly and fill any gaps with chunks of creeam cheese. pour the cheese sauce over it all and put a layer of spinach over it all then cover with 4 layereof filo pastry. roll the edges in th the pan pour melted butter over it to brown the pie and sprinkle with seseme seeds. cook at 180-200C until gloden brown and enjoy with a glass of your favorite wine. get me laid every time "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  18. this sis interesting because i do not belive in god as god is portrayed by many religons, but i am a strong believer in the power of positive thought, for instance the hypochondriac will remain ill but the person that belives they will get better stand a much better chance of gettting better. our minds are much more powerful than we are led to believe, so in this study the people that knew they 'were' getting prayed for may have thought less about healing themselves than the others. the power of positive thought works if you are praying or thinking positive as far as i am concerned. if god existed as specified in the bible innocent children would not fall ill and evil people would not control the masses and live in luxury, while others suffer for no reason but the fact that they were born into poverty. some god huh, what a wanker.

  19. this is myself and my partner leigh training, we are going to the world champs later this year, she rules. this was about our 30th jump together. oops the attachment didn't work, the photo is 2mb and i don't know how to make the file smaller. ' doh "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  20. Yeah on jump shack tandem harness there is a belly band i'm sure? old vector and next student harness' dont have a belly or back strap. that dude would have been choking when the canopy opened a good old natural arch on that one, no chance of ending up on your back taking that fellow. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  21. I have only started doing hand cams and I think they are allright. not as good as outside camera but a good handcam is better than a shit outside camera. the best advantage is the reaction of the customer when the parachute opens. there are some priceless looks. you have to use a .25 to get any scenery in, .3 is not quite wide enough. i get paid $50 extra for the video and the camera and glove are supplied. for a small cessna dropzone it is far more eficcient, we are using a 185 so it climbs well with 2 tandems and we can gety 2 videos done as well. if we had 100% camera with outside camera we would have to do single loads and would only be able to half the amount of people. I have never had a mal on a tandem so fuck knows how it affects that situation but from what others have told me, It makes no difference. and you get mean footage from it. i do get more line twists though and It has actually made me fly with my legs only so i can film with one hand and play silly buggers with the other. if there is a problem.... fuck the footage and get it sorted. there is nothing wrong with hand cam except it will never be better that good outside camera. period.

  22. dude that is the weakest analogy ever.... so what was first god or nothing? duh for fuck sake pull you head in. so god was sitting there for eternity hovering in a mass of nothing before he got bored and dicided to create everything? what created god? we will never know exactly what existed before the universe. this god malarchy is made up for people that cannot handle not having an answer. the story is old and outdated. only the stubbon hold on to it. oh and the ones that realise it is all a lie but they get lots of money and litle boys for being at the top of the heirachy. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  23. The whole heavan and hell thing is a crock of shit. It was a story made up for naive people that were desparate for a meaning of life. It is used as a marketing campaign to get a small few rich in wealth. If god was such a good cunt then he would have given the understanding to all. there are plenty of civilisations that did not even know about christianty until last century. how is this fair. it's not it is all a crock of shit and you are gullible if you believe it. open your eyes look to the cosmos and you will find we are a mere stitch in time and a virus choking our host. The planet earth and its star the sun deserves the respect that many give to this ficticious god. i suppose i'm going to hell for respecting our planet over God? but the fat vicar that drives his bmw and scores all the cash from his victims is going to heaven? My ass. and by the way, Vivesection is creul. these sort of things should be tested on humans that have inflicted pain on others way beyond reasonable doubt. as punishment rather than couping them up in a prison.

  24. Wow I wish i could make one like that. I want a Rawa and have emailed them 3 times with no reply? So I don't Know what to get now. a cookie would be the next option but too expensive when i know i could get a Rawa for much less. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
  25. not to hijack the thread but this statement is bullshit. Maori have more opportunity than the pakeha, if they want to study, the fees are heavily if not fully subsidised by thier Iwi, and there are slots left exclusively for maori in many subjects, they need less grades to be accepted into university and any sport they do well in they get a scholarship. I wish i had some maori blood, I wouldn't have to pay to go to the worlds. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
