  1. I am just hoping that the amount he was subjected to wasn't enought to sink in!
  2. I was holding my sleeping baby boy last night and got stuck watching Nip Tuck after Anger Mangement because I couldn't reach the remote. Holy crap, what a bad show! "I'll make you a 10 again! I swear I will make you a 10 again!" Jeesh!
  3. does anyone care about this question besides me? Problem is, you aren't going to get an answer from her. This is her "one and only post." She was just on here long enough to be dramatic, then split.
  4. Don't think anyone misunderstood. You are using this thread to promote how cheap you do coaching. If you coach for the love of teaching, then I applaud you. But if you just want people to be impressed with how cheap you do it, which is what my impression is from your posts, then you are really missing the point. I mean, I post a thread to announce the winners of a free day of coaching, and you feel the need to post how cheap you do coaching for?
  5. Wow! You really need to get that straightened out! YOU are responsible for ending up behind them and should never even start a turn if you don't have clear airspace to do so. If you are coming from above and behind someone, you have made a HUGE mistake!
  6. Thank you, Evelyn, Alyson and Judy! Thank you for both your appreciation and participation. I hope to fly with all of you in the near future.
  7. Thanks guys! I am using a Sandisk. I have always used Napster to drag mp3 onto it and it is really easy, but I want to put song from a cd on it now and had never done it.
  8. I have actually never used Mindows Media Player for a CD. Is it pretty easy to follow once I am in there? The player that I use for CDs is Dell's music player. Not sure exactly what it is called.
  9. How the heck do I record songs from a CD to my computer so I can download them onto my MP3 player? Can you use Napster's software? I have Windows XP.
  10. It's over. Move on. It's not like you woke up from a coma one day and realized you had been forced to date this guy without your consent. Seriously, you just look foolish if you drag it out any longer by "getting revenge." The best thing you can do is act like it doesn't bother you a bit and just go get your stuff. OR you can be that person who everyone laughs at and feels sorry for because they can't let it go and has to make a production out of it.
  11. I kinda like 276s. But that's cuz I seem to overshoot my 270s!
  12. Nope. I love you BECAUSE of it.
  13. Thought you were going to "shut your mouth?"
  14. Actually, they would be paying about $47. Coaching prices at $80 would include both slots. While I agree that $80 is alot of money, I do not think it is too much to pay for the coaches and schools that can charge it. I would say that most coaching prices go for between $55 and $75 with a few that are higher. We are talking about coaches who have thousands of jumps and are highly experienced in teaching their discipline. Coaching is WELL worth the money. I wouldn't expect coaches to do it for free or even for just their costs, and I in no way am putting down what people get for coaching costs by running this contest. I am simply trying to help a couple people out because I can and I love to teach and try to pass along some of what I have learned in my 2900 jumps. Professional coaches have invested years and years of their time and thousands of dollars to learn what they have and now are trying to make a living giving back to the skydiving community by teaching others. In my opinion, coaches deserve alot more than "80 bucks," but the business just won't support it. So before we go off on a tangent about how much it costs to get coaching and how little others are willing to do it for, please don't forget what you are paying for. Professional coaches aren't getting rich. In most cases, they are just getting by, and they are doing it by their willingness to devote themselves to teaching others what they know.
  15. I liked your other pic that was floating around here, but this one is cool too, I guess. If you like that sort of thing. Seriously- Nice picture!
  16. I hope we will cross paths this season and we can play in the sky! Thanks again for your PMs!
  17. Yeah, and he voted that the man is a genius. I voted the same.
  18. It's driving me crazy!!!!!
  19. I want 2 lower level Flyers tickets. Being a new daddy, I don't really have the money to spend on hockey this season.
  20. I also believe that the Misfits box set is a must have, but not American Psycho.
  21. Yes. He exited an aircraft. The rules of skydiving apply. You cannot exit an aircraft with a BASE rig on. You must have a dual parachute system and must open know lower than 2,000 feet AGL.
  22. I think so too. Except for the fact that he posted it with this comment: "This was not really a good idea....but it was fun!" Posting it so that others can learn from it is one thing. Posting it because you think it was fun and you are trying to be cool, is quite another.
  23. Well you DO have to pay a small service fee that is not included. It's only $399 though. Just kiddin! Looking forward to it!
