  1. Bascially... Are you willing to become the equivalent of an online whore, posting nothing but sex shit to this forum, and maybe, since we as a internet group actually meet up and jump together, unlike other forums where people talk shit, you have to deal with you reputation? I think that should cover it. /just has to live up to being an asshole
  2. Ya know.... I don't think that I would be too surprised by that. Look, just because I am smarter, better looking, and overall cooler than all of you doesn't make me an arrogant prick.
  3. It takes more than solid play to get out-shot 29-9 and still win 2-0. Go USA.
  4. I can't disagree with you there.
  5. I'm finishing residency in 2 days from a very large not-for-profit corporation. There was actually a huge article in the WSJ attacking us back in August for our costs, for suing people and foreclosing their homes over their medical bills, etc. We stand to lose/write-off $50mil this year in charity care and non-payments. However, not-for-profit still has to pay the bills. And unfortunately, if you think the bills the patients see are large, you should see the bills the hospitals see. Medicine ain't cheap. Sucks, but it is true. Really don't want this to go to SC, but meh.
  6. Makes me kinda regret typing out what I said, but it just proved a point. I don't want you to get hurt. Moreover, I don't want you to be incapacitated and hurt someone else. I wish you the best of luck, because you certainly know more than we do.
  7. So I don't deserve to get paid for what I do? I assume you work for free too right?
  8. Kids are made of rubber. All soft and squishy like. If I took the falls now that I took then.... CRACK.
  9. Unfortunately, as physicians we can only make recommendations to our patients. Whether or not they listen once they leave the office is up to them. Most of the time people only hear what they want to hear. Case in point above. To the OP, I want to you to give this serious thought. Forget the part about actually doing serious damage to yourself. Think about the first part of the statement. Think back to the pain you were in from the appendicitis that made you get your appy taken out. Could you fly a pattern with other canopies in the air, and land it safely while being distracted by that pain? A broken leg or worse will certainly hurt much more if you get a nice sharp wave of pain right at flare time that causes you to not flare, flare unevenly and auger yourself in, etc. In short, I know you have a low number of jumps. I remember how jump horny I was then, kinda like a teenage boy. You will likely be just fine doing this, but is it worth it when you consider the risk of how long you will be out if you do further damage, or new damage? The sky will still be there next weekend, and the weekend after that. And the next one.
  10. The best advice you have gotten here is to ask your surgeon when you can return to moderate to vigorous physical activity. This does not constitute medical advice.
  11. You know, we all have them. Those people that you know are fucking useless, but would still be fun to push down the stairs.... Just venting, that's all.
  12. None : 4 : 1 Well, only made 4jumps in three days at Skyfest. 1-13 way SCR Zoo dive. 3 - Hop and pops and over Raeford's pond. 1st time swooping a pond 1- Swimming lesson in said pond, 2 successful passes. Lots of beer consumed and good times with friends.
  13. Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner! No, we have a loser. He does that, and it's perjury and fraud. I think he was joking. And besides, if the OP is stupid enough to go to court with advice on law from a skydiving website, then he deserves what he gets.
  14. I was a theoretical math major in college. I could probably do most things still, but not be able to tell you all the intermediate steps, given that I don't process it that way anymore. However, I found my senior thesis cleaning my apartment yesterday and yeah, shit looks like greek to me. (Only the 1st two paragraphs are written in English)
  15. what ever happened to not buying shit you cant afford? Payment in full at time of order. didn't know it happened any other way. good to know.
  16. "are you using the autopilot?" "Me and the good lord are hand flying this thing" Fucking awesome.
  17. ˙˙˙˙˙sıɥʇ op ʇ,upıp ʇı ʇsɐǝl ʇɐ
  18. Yes we will!!!! And if you fuckers end up being in the hotel room next to me and keep me awake will all of your drunken fuckery noise.... heads will roll. If you're awake you may as well come and join in.
  19. Sushi IS fucking awesome. Compared to dog shit it is! Pickle juice. Olive juice. Sushi. No love for the salty taste. So... ummm. can we imply what your opinion is on swallowing? I knew I loved you.
