  2. Eugene skydivers in oregon do a chute,scoot and shoot or some variation of that for a boogie every year. last year it was a GI joe boogie, off DZ landing from 4 k , shuck your rig go to 3 different stations ending up at the shooting station with a glock and two clips. good fun, although we weren't allowed to jump with the weapons you could supply your own weapon if you wanted to. check it. blue skies jerry
  3. You can't jump if you ain't there or play grab ass with all your buds. Go to the DZ what the hell are you thinking. blues jerry
  4. No, if they had been waiting for the perfect moment that would have been late next summer to give on last pre -election boost. Your both wrong, they are saving Oasama for the pre-election boost. blues jerry
  5. Hang in there, good things come to those who wait. vibes to you!!! jerry
  6. Congratulations I'm coming up on 1 year this week, the wife said baby if you stop drinking beer I won't complain about you buying skydiveing gear. She keeps her end of the deal and I keep mine. I still buy beer for the firsts that I do. I enjoyed drinking beer, but I don't really miss it. blues jerry
  7. HI Ann, there should be two nuts that hold the bar, 9/16 usually. and to adjust chain tension there should be a slot headed screw which will be inline with the bar. Loosen the two nuts, (but don't take them off) until you can feel a little play in the bar. Turn the slotted screw ccw a few turns,at some point you should be able to move the bar backward and forwards. I usually turn the saw upside down so I can see the chain sprocket and start by putting the chain on the sprocket first. Than I work the chain into the bar and finish up rolling the chain around the nose of the bar. Almost done, to complete the job you must next adjust the chain tension, by turning the slotted screw cw until there is about a 1/4- 1/2 inch play in the chain when you lift up on it in the middle of the bar. than tighten the two nuts. A couple of safety tips. Never straddle the saw , keep it off to the side of your body. Try to keep your work below you waist, once you get the saw above your waist you loose your leverage and kickbacks can be hazardous. blues jerry
  8. When I tried to call you back , I was in the house, when I actually talked to you I was out side on the porch. Thats how close I am to having no service at all. Thank you to everyone who responded in my little experiment. blue skies jerry Happy New Year!!!
  9. The line is busy. blues jerry
  10. I.m still waiting for someone to drunk dial this thing, I'll even let my wife answer it and she won't know what going on. blues jerry
  11. The audiovox cdm-8600, this phone is about the size of a chicklet. It seems to work ok. blues jerry
  12. Dude thats whats going on, my wifes phone has made the switch but mine has not. and yes it is AT&T . where I live I can only get verizon land line so I decided to go verizon wireless as well and have everything on one bill. Thanks for the advice. blue skies jerry
  13. Bush isn't sending them off to get killed. He's sending them off to fight terrorists. It's unfortunate that some die, but I'm glad that they are fighting there and not here. I guess guys like Osama Bin Ladin don't count, because last I heard they are not in Iraq. Oh wait, Afghanistan doesn't have a large oil reserve. never mind. blues jerry
  14. Bingo, Fliegendewolf, It is a verizon phone and thats what its doing. I live out in the sticks so I'm not sure I can receive calls out here anyway. blue skies jerry
  15. This Thread- Bush...A good president? blues jerry
  16. That is so kickass. blues jerry
  17. I'd be more than happy to send you some ((VIBES)) I hope you don't have to go under the knife truly. blues jerry edit:can't spell
  18. Sorry for misleading peeps out there, I can call out on this phone but I'm not able to recieve calls for some reason. I have to have the phone company port the number or what ever the hell they do. Again sorry my bad, I'll post again when I get it fixed. blues jerry
  19. No more so than some other statements in this thread. Your self included, and I mean that in the nices possible way. blues jerry
  20. I'm thinking about Amazon, who apparently ended up on the wrong side of an argument. And than to make matters worse changed her sig line to reflect her feelings. But I could be wrong. blues jerry
  21. I'm sure he earned that masters degree on his dads fishing boat. blues jerry
  22. Skydive Oregon is strictly BOC. IMHO anything else is BS. blues jerry
  23. Wow. Your profile says you're also getting a PD193R in that I-55, which is so far off the published specs I wonder if I'm missing something. VSI says an I-55 will hold a 343 ci reserve, but PD says their 193 has a pack volume of 442 ci, and PIA rates that canopy at 471 ci. VSI says an I-55 will hold a 443 ci main, but PIA says an original Sabre 190 takes up 500 ci, and even a Spectre 190 takes 475ci. Am I missing something? Is there that much variation in container and canopy sizes? Is this just a testament to how tight you and your rigger are willing to pack? thanks, Spencer Spencer, when I looked into buying the container I called VSE and spoke to kelly and told him what I wanted to do, his reply was Quote " thats what its made for". I personally don't believe you'd want to go any bigger in that container, from what I understand the reserve is snug, but ok by whatever standard riggers go by. The main is snug also compared to say a Javelin JK5 with the same canopy. IIRC when they measure container volume they use strait lines which leaves a little bit of a fudge factor because the container is somewhat rounded. I have never seen a hard number for the saber2 and I don't know if its the same as the original saber. I would advise anyone making canopy or container choices to consult with the manufacturer before buying. blue skies jerry I do know I could drop to a 170 no problem in my container.
  24. Dude , I got a feeling your ahead of the curve. Do a search on the words "lets try again" its not my log but reads like mine does. blues jerry
