    Naw, 'cause then he'd have 120 jumps.

    The odds favor people who use RSL's. I still use one. But we all are free to make our choices.

    Doing a little math shows you make 12.5 jumps a year. You should jump more often if you ever want to improve. Me? ~200+ a year. Some factors are kids, a job and rainy Seattle weekends. Hope to up that number next year.

    It's great to be shootin' blanks, isn't it?

    Forecast for the weekend shows perfect weather for jumping! That's always a HUGE concern in the Northwest. Everyone show up and have a great time.

    They wouldn't let Vskydiver back to watch. No Way! Really? Man, mine was such a non event. I've had stubbed toes hurt worse. Must have been the percosets.

    Vallerina! So good to see you in The Bonfire! (not literally, of course.)

    Wouldn't that have been great? We love showing that flick to skydivers when they come over. We sit on the coach and bust a gut laughing at it all.

    So do we. "I LIKE coffee."

    I don't really recall my 100th. Just another fun jump.

    Hey Shah, what Dave said.

    But if porn helps you maximize your workout, isn't it worth the sacrifice? I go to the gym so I can skydive. That's about it.

    That's the way I go. "I'm happily married" has worked really well for a long time. Sometimes they can get stalker-ish and that's when you have to ramp it up a notch.

    I'm still the old guy that asks questions. There's a lot of noobs at our DZ and all the boogies. Too many times people have tried to kill Vskydiver and me.

    Used to work with a controller who would say that over the radio to pilots. Not one of our shining stars, definitely.

    I had a vasectomy years ago . . . both sides. Was skydiving 5 days later. That guy on Craig's list needs to hitch up his skirt and get on with it.

    Interesting answer.

  20. JohnMitchell
    Amazing.
  21. JohnMitchell
    Wow, sounds like no one will jump with you. Sorry. Hope you find a sport you like.
  22. JohnMitchell
    Exactly.

    Russ Chew, that loser from American Airlines, change us from ATC to Air Traffic Organization and called all the system users "customers" as if they had a choice to go elsewhere for air traffic control clearances. What a dork. I've always been service-to-the-user oriented. Those fancy word changes didn't change a thing.

    Damn, I had forgotten the time I had just replaced a quarter panel on my old Mustang convertible and some girl driving her boyfriend's truck crunched into that very panel in a Kmart parking lot.
  25. JohnMitchell
    That would be such a rush!
