  1. Wow. Congratulations. You let the government borrow $4500.00 for a full year, interest free. You made out like bandit. I'm going to get about $200.00 back this year. To me, that's pretty good. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  2. That's great news! Congratulations to everyone involved! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  3. *drool* - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  4. You're going to have to work really hard to make it so bad that it won't open. Do what you saw in the video and on the Icarus website. Jump it. Make corrections. Remember, it wants to open. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  5. Wow. "Angry Quade" speaks. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  6. Dude, that's not a 'pretty new canopy', trust me. It's nice to learn on though, it's got a packing hole. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  7. Amen! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  8. Next time, drive down about another mile and stay at the Red Carpet Inn. Ask for room 307, it's got 3 queen size bed, and enough floor space for 10 of your friends. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  9. Wouldn't that apply to any group with a powerful lobby and large following? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  10. You know that the majority of John's posts are about guns, and gun related subjects. If you don't like that, don't open them. Really, it's not that difficult. I would suggest the same to anyone who doesn't feel compelled to discuss or otherwise participate in any discussion that doesn't interest them. There are other forums on this site, quite a few actually. Personally, I find the gun threads enjoyable. I've learned a lot, and formed a lot of opinions about the subject, by reading what EVERYONE here has to say. Same can be said for those damn political threads too. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  11. Don't forget to try the Nitro(n) (is there a difference?), the new Vision, and the Cobalt. As long as you're playing the demo game you may as well try them all, right? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  12. Story here. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  13. I have a solution for that, too. Policemen on every corner, in every room of every building, on every train, plane, boat, and automobile. I think it just might work! We'll get those guns out of the hands of criminals, just you watch! Sheesh John, this really is simple, I don't know why anyone hadn't thought of it before. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  14. But John, if we ban all guns I won't have a need to defend myself with a gun. Right? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

    OMFG

    Agreed. I'm a little surprised, too, by the bulk of the comments on this thread. So it's different, who cares? I think it's neat. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  17. That has not been my experience. In my few years in this sport I've met people from many different faiths. I've also met agnostics/athiests. I don't think that skydivers are really any different than the rest of the world, at least when it comes to their personal faith. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends.

  18. Crap! I missed it! Anyone got video? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  19. I am aware that the Republicans currently hold the majority of the seats in Congress; just as you are aware that Congress passed, by an overwhelming majority, those resolutions (such as the Patriot Act, and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security) which have expanded the government. The previous administration created the budget surplus by dismantling the military and intelligence agencies. The current administration has been faced with the task of putting them back together. Stuff isn't free, you know. Possibly due to the burst of the dot com bubble? It was felt by more than just the tech community, you know. Regardless of the pretenses, the war was necessary, and you know it. You're also aware that the war wasn't Bush's idea. This war has been in the planning stages since at least the Clinton administration, maybe earlier than that. I can't argue with this one, unfortunately. However, I can say that congress passed the Patriot Act by an overwhelming majority. That's Republicans and Democrats. I think I've addressed this one twice already. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  20. Me thinks it's a crock-o-shit. The ad is not offensive. If whatever group has the money to air it, then I say let them air it. It's disappointing that CBS refuses to let it play. Edited to add: I also agree with Clay. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  21. Sunpath will choose the best container for you based on your main and reserve canopies. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  22. Yahoo! Groups works well for that. Really. http://groups.yahoo.com/ - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  23. In case you've forgotten, the President alone has very little power. In the case of our rights being slowly stripped away, don't forget to include Congress in your equation. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  24. WHAT? But I paid EXTRA for that! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  25. Oh crap. Does that mean no jumping at FreezeFest? That could suck. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
