since you asked, there are but two people i trust with my reserve, both are master riggers, if they quit, i quit. for me i gotta KNOW when i pull that "silver" i got my reserve over my head. is it worth $45.00, $200.00, $500.00? the REAL question is, "whats your life, and your "comfort level" worth? Damn Straight, Tip Your Riggers, you tip your waiters? right? and that's just for good service at a friggen table in a resturaunt. treat them right, they treat you right...........

When Should The Thought Of Swooping.....
rgoper replied to rgoper's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
...........Enter your mind? after 100, 150 jumps? after your second "downsize?" i'm curious what the consesus is, i don't swoop, because i know in my mind (i'm 43, 4 downsizes, 300+ jumps) that i am not knowledgable enough to do it. i've always been curious, as to what it is that is the "key" element in the decision making process of "when" it's time to swoop. is it peer pressure? is it trying to be kewel? i'm NOT bashing swooping, just trying to understand, when, and what makes sky divers decide when it's time. i'm under the impression that a lot of sky divers make the decision too soon, and the statistics back me up. everyone...........listen..............BE SAFE!

*Jeez Ann, why do you seem to constantly be being hacked?* there's a good question. seems there are a few pesky computer geeks/hackers out there that get off doing this sort of thing to others for no apparent reason whatsoever. Richard

well, congrats are in order, so our hats are off to you guys, nice dive, well planned, and documented. you have taken the record from texas, and our beloved paula lived up to her end (er...top of the deal) my question is, which one of you gals is going to return the favor, once we organize and break the record, assuming we will? again congrats to all, looked like fun! :) Blue Skies, Hot Days: Richard "Gravity Is My Friend"

the show was kewel! i'm an ozzy fan from day 1, since black sabbath (i've seen them/him in concert several times over the years) the most hiliarous part of the show was when jack & kelly were going out on the town ozzy tells them "no getting stoned, and wear a condom" i'm thinking yeah.......RIGHT! all kidding aside, i believe his new album is killer, and i wish his show the best! "well i've got a crazy feeling i don't understand, i've got to get away from here.....feeling like i shoul've kept my feet on the ground....waiting for the sun to appear! mama's gonna worry, i've been a bad, bad boy...."

speaking of msn............i just got off of the phone with these klowns, (after talking to 20 different people, nobody can help, i'm sure ya'll know the drill) i bought a new cpu today for my office, it's a pavillion 540n, after going through and setting up my msoffice 2000 pro, and my iomega zip, i got to looking for my restoration cd's for the machine, they weren't there. :( i'm advised that i cannot obtain them, unless in the event of a crash or another castrophe. ain't that a b**ch! that's my rant. before purchasing a new cpu, or laptop, that has win XP on it, inquire about the availability of restoration cd's!

**I don't know, if a guy with blue hair, piercing in every identifiable part of his body, and tumbles intentionally as he goes out the door isn't considered a "freak" I don't know what is. Relax, I free fly too.** i know there are many things to consider in exit order, i just always figured the "big ways" always wanted out first so they could get the best spot. i've seen 16 ways go out, 8 ways, 4 ways, etc...do us "freaks" a favor, and turn on the green light about 20 seconds early! (if your not already) they take 30 minutes to get in position, and launch. J/K that freak analogy is funnie! Richard "Gravity Is My Friend"
