Nice! You should get some sort of sponsorship for putting that thing on your car. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Stacy hook turned into a cow. It's true. No shit. I was there. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Done. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Not much of it. Maybe we should adjust the plan to around 3. That might work. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

No way. Jumping officially starts at the crack o noon. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

I don't care about the "shit heads", let 'em suffer, let 'em starve, let 'em freeze. I just don't care. On the other hand, those who come from a less than perfect background and have the will, intensity, and desire to succeed, they'll do so on their own, without any help from racist/sexist programs such as affirmative action. I agree with this statement. I do not however, agree with the idea of government intervention to do it. Government intervention diminishes the significance of the accomplishment. Bob didn't get the job because he's good, or because he earned it. Bob got the job because he's black. That's bullshit. I might be more qualified for the job, but passed over. Bob will always wonder, did I get the job because I'm good, or did I get the job because I'm black. There will certainly be talk around the water cooler that Bob's new job was a government hand out. Nobody wins. I'm all for providing assistance. Need more money for schools? I'm there. Need more money for after school programs? Count me in. Need money, and time, to help clean up a neighborhood? Been there, done that, do that. Need the government to hold a slot for you because your black? No way. That's discrimination and it's bullshit. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Elimination of the Affirmative Action program would be a good start. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Yeah, it's good to remind them that their insanely expensive skydive is subsidizing your very inexpensive skydive. I do that every chance I get. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Honestly, I think it depends on the employer. I'm not sure that one is any better than the other. If you're in a situation at work and feel that you've got nothing to lose you should talk about that with management. See if you can work out an agreement that works for both sides. I think if you can work out a layoff that you'll be eligible for unemployment and you won't have a blemish on your record. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

I don't know if it's exactly inspiring, but it's damn true! The ground is hard, fair, and patient. Somehow that one seems to stick with me. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

No. If proper horizontal separation is given and breakoff isn't too high, this isn't a problem. The golden rule is to turn 180 and track. Do it. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Mistake. You're now a "serious boyfriend." Cutaway. Yup yup. You should have said "Parents? Nah, I'm watching football." - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you think skydiving is better than sex then you're doing something wrong. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Why wouldn't it be? Someone has to end up with the best non-crossbraced elliptical, right? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

In your best guestimation, how many test jumps are on the Katana at this point? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Maybe attached to your car it could be used as a kite. On a windy day a 25 sq/ft kite can literally drag me across the landing area, a 34 does the same thing, only quicker and I'm a big guy at 6'1" and 220lbs. If you do decide to try the kite experiment be sure to get video! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Why didn't you ditch the unlandable main and go for the reserve? The other mistake you made was not getting rid of an unlandable canopy at your hard deck. If you had played with those line twists for a few more seconds this could very well have been an incident. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Where is "I'm awake" I'd have answered to that. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Wendy, I've got a $20.00 for you, I've enjoyed many of your shows and it's about time I chipped in. For those who don't know, Wendy knows her explosives, chip in! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Come on now, the Xaos flys big, so it's different. Someone told me that once... Someone trying to sell a Xaos to someone with 300ish jumps. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
