I personally only have a "B" and a "D" Of course I had the luxury of being somewhere that let me jump w/o a license. I am familiar at this time but as long as the DZ is cool with it just jump until you get the license you want. Yes, there are Boogies that require a "B" and some that require a "C" It just depends on the place. Laters, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!

I would vote but Zero is not an option. I am never nervous. I just think of all the things that can go wrong and how to handle them. I went to Bridge Day this past weekend and getting out on the ramp did not even phase me. I looked down, looked at the boom camera dude, Pointed, and jumped. Piece of Cake! I have learned to accept "DEATH" and know that it will come on its day no matter what I do in life. I do however know when something strange is going to happen. I have had some interesting accidents/incidents. Laters, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER! "HESITATION CAUSES DEATH!!!"

I try but then again I do not see every new person on the DZ. I do answer their curiosity questions without a problem or complaining. I have heard other up jumpers get frustrated with wuffo's. I do not. I try to get them to do a Tandem. I used to do Tandems and any free time I had was spent greeting customers and talking with them and answering their questions. I was a super P.R. guy. I even convinced a few of them to actually do a skydive. It definitely showed because when I got hurt I not only recieved well wishes from my fellow jumpers but former students and people who had spoken with me on the drop zone. It depends on the DZ but I think at Z-Hills we are fairly more friendly. What must be understood is that there are times when people are jumping hard and stopping to talk is just not on their mind. It would just depend upon the day you went. Maybe it just happened to be a bad day. Laters, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER! "HESITATION CAUSES DEATH!!!"

I had a Great time at Bridge Day!!!!!!!!!!! The weather was unbelievable! No one could have asked for better weather. Thank you for the updated Statistics. It is always good to get the actual. I heard there were more injuries than that. I am happy that everyone is in good condition and nothing serious happened. I made two jumps. One landing on land and the other landing in water on purpose because I did not like what the winds were doing. I believe that the water was colder than 56 though. Especially for a Florida Guy!

Sounds like the person who gave you the shot tore your muscle or brused it really bad. I am in the military and have had almost every disease known to man plugged into me. The only once that render the arm usless are Typhoid and Plague. If you exercise the muscle where the shot was given it reduces the soreness almost completely. Hey you only sleep 4HRS a night. I have been getting more lately but on a normal schedule that is what I get. Sometimes I wonder why I got off active duty. That is all I got when I was in full time.

I do not see Zero as an answer. Hmmmmmm. O.K. I guess I will have to conform this once and say One. It really depends though on what your doing. When driving almost non-stop across the country the answer would be Zero. If you are a real backwoods HillBilly or live in a commune the answer would be Once a week possibly even a month. Yes I do know people like this. No, I do not hang out with them. One works with me. Total disgusting. Anyway, it is a little strange that you take a shower before you exercize. Not to mention 4 is a bit much. It might almost even be unhealthy. I am not medically trained though. Oh Well, Just a few words to start this thread into a full steam ahead mode.

Yes because they do not use a live virus anymore. You should also look into getting a pneumonia shot. Unlike the flu this is a once in a lifetime shot. As a matter of fact all the people on here should look into it. Especially if you have any sort of respiratory issues. Blue Skies, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Depends on the insurance company. Most try their best not to total the car. They will ask you to take it to one of their preferred shops. Most likely they will try not to replace panels that could possibly be straightened. I know the air bags are expensive. Take Pics silly. Then I would be able to tell you more.

You will be fine I am sure. I know what it is like to be injured. I have done some serious abuse to my body in the last few years. Not all of it from Skydiving. I have had 8HRS of Maxiofacial Surgery from a truck wreck. I also had to go through three surgeries for my leg. I am still here and kicking. Therefore I know you will be fine.

NOt if your sick there girlie. It is definitely not healthy. There are plenty of other days to jump. Anyway, I will be out of town this weekend. When you feel better theough you could always scoot over to this side and have a great day. Get better and stay on the ground until you feel better. As far as a cure is concerned I used to take some NyQuill and then two beers and two shots of SOCO and goto bed. It always worked for me in the ARMY.

I am all moved out there Girlie. Not too mention I am not going to be in town this weekend. I am going to do some even crazier stunts. Friday is White-Water and then Saturday is the Bridge. Just let me know when the house warming party is and I will be there. Have Fun! Keith(KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER! "HESITATION CAUSES DEATH!!!"

Actually Lisa we are about to start the Boogies which basically run until Easter. Therefore Z-Hills is not only a dz but one big boogie for like 6-months. You definitely need to come on over. It is a hoot. Just close your eyes when people land. Like I have said you can crash on the Sleeper Sofa at Kramalito y Cora's Casa. The place for wayward skydivers. Certain people have preference. Party ON! KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER! "HESITATION CAUSES DEATH!!!" "Be Slow to Fall into Friendship; but when Thou Art in, Continue Firm & Constant." - SOCRATES

WHY Z-Hills of Course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can definitely find some interesting side events going on all the time at Z-Hills. Especially around the fire and now that the swoop pond is cleaned up. Laters, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!

My name has changed with the times. Although the latest is Not to be confused with the imposter here on the boards. One Day I shall have to put him to shame in the Kramer look-a-like contest. !!!!! Not too many people know my real name although they are starting to learn it. I feel bad when people come up to me and recognize me instantly but I cannot re-call who they are. Then again I have travelled to many places. Laters, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER! "HESITATION CAUSES DEATH!!!"

I am working although not very hard since the future here is uncertain. I recon I have to work on my resume' again. Definitely not a good time to have to change jobs but. Shit Happens! I am sure I will survive somehow I always do. I will be trying to make a jump after work though. I mean the DZ is on the way home. Laters, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They actually have DSL in the Georgia backwoods? I thought ya'll were still using string and cans to communicate? Yeah I made one attempt at swooping the pond. Went High, Oh well, better to misjudge high then low. I have Packed Lady Skydiver 3 X's now and she has not jumped any of those. We have had a real bad weather weekend. This weekend is the bridge.

Look at that Lisa and I think alike. Then again if I remember correctly she is an ARIES!!! There is a thought. I wish we had Video of the "Blue Stuff" Evening.

Allrighty there crazy Little Miss. You know the answer to that one. Anyway you should leave them for the deprived soldiers who have to remain back. I do not buy the stuff but I am not sure that the price of it matters as to how good it is. I Hope you Have A Great Flight Home There little Woman. I cannot wait to jump with ya again. Maybe I can be on your 200TH. Blue Skies, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER! "HESITATION CAUSES DEATH!!!"

Buy Used and big. Learn from your mistakes w/o killing yourself. That is what I did. You also have the luxury of being at a big DZ. Therefore you have more options to hands on equipment instead of guessing over the internet. Laters, KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!
