    Farts

    It's always been kinda weird the first time I heard my girlfriend make a fluffy. I didn't let her forget about it for weeks. =========Shaun ==========

    Dating Ideas

    I am trying to think of some too - poor college kid date ideas that involve something other than getting smashed. Here are some fun ones I've tried: 1. Go to her house and cook her dinner. Surprises are even better. 2. Go for a hike. There are trails EVERYWHERE, even in rural Kansas that are worth seeing. 3. Go canoing. If you look around, I'm sure you could borrow/rent a boat for almost nothing. It's fun, it's different, she'll never forget it. 4. Bonfire. Smores. Hot dogs. I pretty much like any idea that gets you out of the dinner/movie rut. =========Shaun ==========
  6. I agree with this statement, although I think it's missing a few aspects. "badge of Honor" is right, but also it's a strong statement that you are qualified to instruct others, and implies a more indepth knowledge of the BSR and FARs. We should EXPECT our instructors to know the ISP forward and backwards. We EXPECT our D-license holders to be able to hammer our cloud-clearance and visibility requirements. I think this is where we are getting ourselves into trouble in this thread. Who cares if you can land a screaming rocket at 50mph or even put it on a dime each time; You need to know your stuff and be able to prove it. As far as night jumps go - I never understood what the big deal was. You NEED to know your stuff to do a successful night jump. Seems like a good indicator to me..... =========Shaun ==========
  7. I agreee - facebook is addicting and I try REALLY hard NOT to do it in class, but since I'm posting this in class at this exact moment...I got nothing. Facebook is awesome. Myspace is Gay. =========Shaun ==========
  8. Does buying a Diamond Ring count? =========Shaun ==========
  9. Stubbins. It's Irish for "cat." It would be a great dog name. =========Shaun ==========
  10. I've found that if you don't come across as creepy or a jerk - 99% of Women will be happy to have you come over and just start talking. You don't even need a stupid ice-breaker or pickup line! "Hi!" works fine for me. =========Shaun ==========
  11. Or even worse; have it work TOO well. You know those woods you get and they won't go away at awkward time?...... =========Shaun ==========
  12. "Shake it, Baby" =========Shaun ==========
  13. What I see as 'unapproachable' is when she sits there, not really trying to carry on a conversation, arms crossed across her chest and a grouchy look. That's when I move on and try someone else... =========Shaun ==========
  14. No technical problems yet for me. If it ain't broke..... =========Shaun ==========
  15. The economics of it are silly. I think a packing machine would have to find a REALLY busy dropzone in order to have enough business to pay for itself. Maybe it's just me, but I'm seeing this as a solution to a problem that never existed. K.I.S.S. =========Shaun ==========
  16. 0:0:0 Man, for me this weekend sucked. My day at the DZ we taught a First Jump class with 14-odd students - I helped out, but I kept myself busy working on the student rigs. I packed one reserve. That's my weekend. Weather sucked. =========Shaun ==========
  17. I can skip work to jump - but I make it too complicated. I know a day or two in advance, and I start, uuugh coming down with something. The day before I skip to jump, I used to show up and act sick. Worked everytime. Now I don't have a job. I quit so I could focus on school and getting ready for an internship.
  18. A few years ago I had some rough experiences with the TSA, mostly with them hasseling me about traveling with my rig, throwing my bags aside or just generally being jerks. I didn't complain then - but I should have. I've traveled recently - Denver, Kansas city, Las vegas, Salt lake - this time around was pretty good - those TSA guys and girls got their panties out of a twist and were pretty funny. =========Shaun ==========
  19. PD got my business - I ordered a pair of reserve/Tandem Slinks. I ordered some other stuff - but I forgot already. =========Shaun ==========
  20. Nature has a pretty nice way of weeding those people out. However, with modern technology and medical practices, the process is becoming slower and slower. =========Shaun ==========
  21. Here Here. Sounds like this is their way of making sure complacency doesn't ruin it for everyone. =========Shaun ==========
  22. Did you ever think that Dz.com is like a drama? Grey's Anatomy? =========Shaun ==========
  23. I had already put in the papers to take time off So I could go pack tandems... =========Shaun ==========
  24. Good call Larry Hill!! The fact that Skydive Arizona, the mecca for jumpers, has put these rules into effect - makes a pretty loud statement! High Five! =========Shaun ==========
  25. So amusing, yet so, predictable.
