You start selling your organs to help your JUMP FIX. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

Hate to tell you all this but I got to jump Thursday through Saturday. The bad part was the weather: 2:1:5 Oh well, hope all are safe and everyone had a GREAT weekend. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

And right back at you. Be safe. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

I certainly do. There are few countries in the world where I as a woman can own my own home, drive a 2003 truck, own a couple large boats, take vacations where ever I see fit in the world, afford to take up a very expensive sport and buy a lot of new equipment to support that habit. Sure those are materialistic things but I also served in the armed forces of this country for 8 years. I have traveled to about 40 countries in my life and have seen how many of those countries allow women the advantages I have been blessed within this one. I worked VERY HARD for a good education that allowed me to get a very good job, how many women in Africa or the middle east or Asia or even in Europe can attain that and have anything more than being a slave to their circumstances. No its not about the materialistic things in life for me, but I would venture I am far happier than MOST women on this planet in the opportunities I was given as part of that. IT seems to me that a goodly number of people on this planet seek those same advantages. Then again there are those who would drag the entire world kicking and screaming back into the squalor and darkness of the 7th century. Against that I would fight anyone anytime and anyplace to avoid. Amazon Amen Amazon. Very well said and thank you for the service for this GRET COUNTRY.

NOT.. What a waste of movie time.... If you are a slasher fan, then go and see it. Other wise, forget it.... There was one about a horse and rider but I forget the name. It gave me chills during the preview. Must see. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

Went to see T-3, should have seen 28 days later. It was OK but not what I would call a "GOOD MOVIE". Rental at best. Saw some great adds for some GREAT movies coming out though. Oh well, I always have BEER. Happy 4th of July. Be safe. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

Then I have to ask, why don't you remove the post about the President? They are inflammatory. Especially by YAHOOS (I'm being VERY NICE) who have NOTHING to loose when they slam what President Bush says or does. Makes you go Hmmmmm Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

Amen. Thanks for the look back. That might be why America sends its' sons and daughters into danger. So others can have freedom. On a personnel note, Thank you all for the support you show the military. Have a safe weekend. Patrick Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

How to tell someone that they are downsizing too fast
ThighMan replied to redheadskydiver's topic in Safety and Training
The S&TA is a good bet, but find out who this person looks to for advice or maybe a mentor. It can save there life. I wish you good luck. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together -
Great job and congradulations. BEER OR BOOBIES, Can I taste them both first?... Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

0:1:2 Slow weekend. Lots of rain here in Florida. Saturday, did a hop and pop at 2500. Watched my Samurai 136 open on the hill. Interesting view watching it from that angle. Hopefully the weather will be better for this weekend. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together
-
I love my Samurai. I started with a 150 (at 460 jumps) and moved down to a 136 (880 jumps). The only "REALLY" bad thing about them is on windy days, the dang thing stays inflated. It looks like a air mattress and can be a little tricky getting it under control. But, once done, I love it. Thanks Brian for the great canopy. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

I will be there and it will ROCK. Sorry Kate, it won't suck but I know where you are so I'll have the beer for you and make as many dives as my check book/CREDIT CARD can handle. Stay safe and I'll see everyone else in RANTOUL.... P.S. I'll be doing my 1000th there. Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

Roger That. I try to be safe. Got done with a "Hollywood" jump out of a C-130 with a -1B. I could have stood it up but HAD to do the PLF.... I'll see you in Rantoul. Airborne Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

does anyone NOT get nervous when they jump?
ThighMan replied to Newbie's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
With little over 900 jumps, I don't really get nervous unless it is something new (Freefly, very large group, or a military{night, combat, mass attack, round}. But once I get out and "DOWN" safely, the adrenalin kicks in and all is good. When I get that little "FEELING", I go over the whole jump in my head and think of the "What if". Emergency procedures, deployment, count, and just about anything else that can go wrong. This way, if it does, I have a little "Clue" as to what to do.

OK Young Lady, what would it take for you to make a night jump? Be nice, remember I work for a living... See you soon. Airborne Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

No complaining, just get in.... GREAT JOB. But, next time, stay on your feet... Be safe and have fun. Airborne Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together -
Please let me know, I'll put in my order and look forward to watching it. Thanks Gary, we all had a blast. Airborne Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

Oh, come on Flyangel, I promiss to buy the beer after the jump. I enjoy the night jumps and look forward to them. They sure beat going out at 1000 with no moon, full ruck, weapon, mass attack (both doors) and a Yahoo doing CRW for 400 feet... I promiss to be carefull. I am counting the days till Rantoul and doing my 1000th skydive. I'll see you there. Love and hugs. Airborne Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

You said it, "When Saddam kills protesters, he is a tyrant oppressing peaceful protesters, no matter how many of them have AK-47's". Now ask yourself if the "Protesters that Saddam killed had weapons? Of course the "Plant" beneath the rose bush was placed by U.S. President Bush. Take a real look at what is going on and then ask the same questions. Do you see the children killing people or just the "Left/Right/Moderate" killing? I'm sure we are keeping 13 year old in prison. Which on was that again? As for the punishment for stealing, would you steal if you knew that you would loose your hand? (Oh, sorry, that was way to Left/Right/Moderate).... Check the list, if it is available, for the 13 year old in Camp X-Ray. Way to mix the issue of WMD up... Airborne Airborne Blue Skies, No Wind Feet and Knees Together

Got to love the "ARM CHAIR QUARTERBACK" for the WMD. Killing the protestor, how about defending ourselves. Shots where received before we returned fire but "YOU FORGOT TO TELL THEM THAT". We are allowed opinion but at least give both sides of the argument. By the way, I'm sure you'll come up with an explanation for the current info you would say, "It is all a lie, they planted it."
