Sure there is a change. At least now you have something nice to ride on (or at least something nice to ride on you) i didn't even notice you in the second picture! Dom

Do you fart dust as well? Dom

$$$$$$$$$$ What are they gonna get out of it. How will them giving you gear, make them money? What type of exposure are they gonna get? Good luck! Dom

I am really pissed off!!!!!! They "THINK" it may be up and running by tonight. MAYBE if we are lucky! DOn't count on it. I will be in there tomorrow if I am lucky. I have to now try and get off from work to go and help these guys in the tunnel. It hurts when I have to take time off from work. Dom

The tunnel is definately down today as well! I have a group of people that came all the way down from Washington State just to fly down in the tunnel! Now i have to call them and tell them there entire reason for driving down here is not going to happen. VERY VERY FRUSTRATING! Dom

I am just thinking about if it does flood. It may take a few days for it to dry up. Perris sucks when it rains. Right now you can't see the pool! Our DZ store is flooding as well. Lot's of sandbags! We always get it worse then you guys over the hill. Dom

Hello Gia! Wanna go play house????? Dom

Nobody if this weather we have doesn't clear up! Lot's a rain and flooding going on out this way. Elsinore seems ok at this point, but you never know around here. A few years ago they put in this dyke system to make sure the LAke doesn't flood, but the next rain that came, it flooded! Dom

That is the word. Dom

That is a cool tandem shot. YOu look like you are having a blast! Man that is a lot of freckels! Dom

Aww!!!! What a cute little skydiver in training! Dom

I love the look on Santa. He is all "Shut this kid up! If he asks for one more thing I am going to drop kick his skinny little ass to the SOUTH POLE!!" Dom

What is everyone else scared to put up pics of them as kids? Or are they scared to post pics of themselves now? Dom

You can't see it? Damn. Go back and look now Dom

Dude you look the same, just a little more hair on the upper lip. I'll Play. The first one is at an SSL meet this year. The second one is me getting creedy with Santa. Dom

Sounds kinda rough when you put it that way. I would say since you are real new. There maybe things that look dangerous to you and really aren't. The things you said about her pulling high is scary to me at least. You want people to follow the plan. If the plan is to track away and deploy at let's say 4k then that is what she needs to do. AT least get the hell outfrom under people. I think what people are telling you is that because of you lack of experiance at this point it willb e hard to get someone that thinks they are better then you to listen to you. Sorry but it is a fact of the sport. It doens' meant that what you are saying is invalid. It's like having a 15 year old tell someone they are a dangerous driver. "Shit Bob you just got your premit, STFU." If I were you I woud quietly go to my S&TA and ask him to watch your friend. TEll him why and if it is reasonable I am sure he will watch her. NO! NO! NO! IF we all sat back and didn't voice concern over something we saw as unsafe or "an accident waiting to happen" then this sport would be fucked. Just get with the S&TA and let them handle it. Two years from now when you have seen a bit more experiance you will really know what is dangerous and what just looks bad. There are a lot of things that we think we see from the ground while peple are under cnaopy and it turns out to be an illusion created by angles and different altitudes. I still have times when I see what to me looks like two canopies about to collide and then then just about the time it looks like they are gonna hit, I see that they are actually way far away. Don't stop caring and ALWAYS speak up if you think something ain't right. You may save someones life one day. Just for now go to the S&TA and your intructors. Don't go and tattle, just ask them what they think about what you just saw. If it is bad they will go say something to her. Dom

use lotion Dom

Not from the US. All you really need is the right type of residency. We were a guest team. One of our members was from SA. It was wierd how many Perris teams had to be guests this year. Some of them didn't even know until they registered. Take Exceed as an example. They are all American citizens. One of them had competed on a Nationals team for another country. That made them a guest. Many debates on if they did or did not know before hand or not. That is for a different thread. i know them all personally and I would think it was a mistake on there part. If any of them told me that the sun was purple yesterday I would believe them. They are all honest people. Bad situation for them. Dom

Sounds like a bad situation. I wouldn't jump there anymore and I would report that rigger to who ever gives out the ratings over there. Any rigger that is stupid enough to do that to a pin and then use it to close a rig is an idiot! He is a danger. I don't think you are whining. Next time I wouldn't leave my rig at the DZ though. If that is the way they do repacks. You don't just grap someones gear and do what you want to it. I don't care if you are a rigger or not. It is still your property. They can keep you on the ground but not fault you for wanting someone you trust to work on your gear. Be a squeaky wheel! Don't lay down. There are only a few people that I will let touch my gear. If one of the asshats that I don't trust touches it without me giving my permission they will get more then they bargined for. Sucks that you don't have to many places to go to jump. Move to the states and use any rigger you want! It's your gear, it's your life! Fuck em! Dom

I will be burning my old Boggie Down Production tapes I have had for over 10 years! Dom

Agreed! I didn't do that. But what else could you expect from skydivers? Dom

I totally agree! Money is an evil thing. It makes people do stupid stuff. If this girl really was raped then Kobe will pay, maybe not now, but he will pay. If he didn't do this, then that girl needs to be thrown in jail. We will never know for sure now. Even if she wins a civil trial, there will always be an * next to it. Take away the civil trial and make her stick to the criminal case and we will get to the bottom of it. Maybe Dom

Your poll doesn't surprise me at all. Regardless of what people think. There are more and more pot smokers out there everday. People that you would never think. There are a few reasons why weed is still illegal. One of them is what we are all probably wearing right now to some extent. COTTON!! Did you know that the cotton industry is one the biggest lobbists against the legalization of Marijuana? They are afraid of hemp. HEMP RULES it can do anything cotton can and more. Dom

Now that tings are coming out in the open. Name one thing that we didn't know that has came out that points a finger at Kobe? Other then what she say's. Kelly brought up a good point. Kobe is a BIG guy and I am sure his Johnson is big as well. From behind would make it seem bigger as well. I wonder what the results of a poll would be if they asked every woman that has had sex with an NBA player if their vagina bled? How many would say yes? I bet there would be more yes's then no's. Dom

I know that rape is a touchy subject. I am not trying to take away from what she may have went through. But after reading the statements that Kobe gave to the police and hearing the things that her "friends" said about her. I truely think she wasn't raped. She got in over her head and when he asked if could leave a present on her face she felt disrespected. She even asked forhis autograph after it was over. Does that sound like someone that was just raped? She even wrote a letter to the police to apologize for lying in her statments to them about Kobe and the things that happend that night. Go to www.thesmokinggun.com and you can read it for yourself. If she lied about part of it. How can you think that she didn't lie about more of it. The other thing thing is that rape is a crime of violence and anger. Rapists usually hate women and want to hurt them. Kobe doesn't seem to be that type of person. OF course I only "know" him from TV and his ads, but he just doesn't come off in any situation I have seen him in as an angry man that hates women. Could I be wrong? SURE I can. I am just giving my observations on this. Now if she had said that Allan Iverson, or Latrell Spreewell had done this , I might believe her. Those are a couple of angry guys at times. Iverson has even pulled guns on people. Another thing. She said she stopped working with the Police because she didn't want her reputation to be hurt and didn't want her sex life out in public. Whatever! All that has already been put out there. Now she is going for the money. Her name legally has to be made public now. All of her sexual history is fair game in a civil trail as well (unless I misunderstood what I have been reading the last few days). So what is her true motivation? It has to be the money. She could have stuck to her guns and not went for money and tried to put him behind bars. Then, I may have believed her. All she would have got out of the deal is Kobe behind bars. Isn't that where he bleongs if he did this to her? Or if she had stuck to the criminal case and won and then went ofter the money. I would have thought that she was telling the truth. Now it just looks like she knew she was gonna lose the criminal trail and decided to go for the money before that was shot down as well. Dom
