Very cool. Flashback memories. I visited Utti, Finland back in 1997 during the World Games in Lahti. 11 years later I -still- say that Utti is the most beautiful place I've ever jumped. Just got out the logbook. It was jumps #155 and 156 on August 17. Logbook signed by Mika Paavolainen. The first jump was a solo just to pull high and enjoy the scenery. The second was a 4-way with 3 of your S/L instructors. It was highly amusing to have all the students stare at us as we creeped the dive. The S/L instructor's pay was to be able to toss their students out of the plane then ride to altitude and jump (if they wanted to). They hadn't done a 4-way in a long time as they normally just got solos. Wonder how many other DZ's have this kind of 'pay' for their instructors. I know in the states that wouldn't go over too well... ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Do what I used to do when I had dial-up. Download the file your want to watch (might take awhile) then you can play it back and watch it all you want. It'll be stored on your hard drive. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Maybe they're only on sale here in California? (there, did that help?) ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Just FYI for those of you who don't have the trilogy in stock. Target is having a sale with the price of $10 each this week (May 18-24). Widescreen special edition DVD. Nice to replace the VHS we had here 12 years ago.

ok, I'm pretty dumb when it comes to video stuff. LANC - after googling I understand what it is. Should I care much? Is this the kind of thing you need for those helmets where you can put a little switch somewhere else? A/V and S-Video inputs - why do I want these on a skydiving camera? when would I need them? LANC for if you want an external indicator light and control for stand-by and record (Cameye) A/V inputs for if you want analogue inputs to record to your camera from an analogue source (VHS, DVDR, or another camera that doesn't do digital). The camera does have IEEE1394 (firewire) so if you can go digital you have in and out. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Fixed the link for you. The 28's fine for a first point and shoot camera. Just be aware it doesn't have LANC port, nor A/V or "S-Video" INPUT. Only OUTPUT. Spec Sheet ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Remember the Presidential Physical Fitness Awards?
ltdiver replied to ltdiver's topic in The Bonfire
And here I thought I was hot stuff back then when I did 61 seconds. The next year I was out gunned by someone younger. Already I was feeling the effects of aging... The 100 yard dash was my nemesis, though. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon -
Remember the Presidential Physical Fitness Awards?
ltdiver replied to ltdiver's topic in The Bonfire
How'd you do on those Presidential Physical Fitness Awards you had to take in school every year growing up? I remember some specific events during some of those years, but I thought the test was long gone by now. Seems that's not so. They've devised an adult one, now. Have at it! I know there is a group monitoring their gym work-outs. Wonder how you fair now? -
For you viewing pleasure here she is again! Fantasia and her song "Bore Me"! Actually, after getting over the shock of the type of performance she chose to give, I'm quite impressed with the choreography and stamina that piece had. I gotta give it to her, she's quite talented. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Maybe they're remembering this episode of "Friends"...: http://www.friends-tv.org/zz401.html Hee Hee Hee.... But here's the real fact: http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=fact-or-fiction-urinating&ref=rss ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Simon's face -was- priceless when Fantasia sang. I think she did that kind of song as an 'in your face' kind of thing. She's a star, successful and sought after and they're still sitting there in their little judge's chairs year after year after year.... I, too, was rather taken back by her selection, but it's her very out there look that got me more. As to David^2 who'll be in the finals next week...If you followed last year's final 3 you'll find that the one who didn't have the HUGE crowds welcoming her home was the one who was voted off. Same with Syesha. She didn't have the humongous crowd at home, and thus you already knew she didn't have the number of votes that the other 2 did. I loved her performances the last 4 weeks. It just didn't have the mass hysteria that they other 2 have generated. My hope is for David Cook to take it all. He seems like the genuine article with a style that isn't a one-beat drummer. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

"Difficult is Worth Doing"--Honda commercial teasers w/skydiving
ltdiver replied to ltdiver's topic in The Bonfire
Okay, I knew Honda had been at Perris a couple of weeks ago (hiring 45 skydivers to put together commercials), but I didn't expect this kind of teaser ads. This is going to be interesting. http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2008/may/12/advertising Make sure you also click on the article's embedded link for more.
