Come see me. I have a training schedule based around grey goose and blue sapphire gin that will guarantee that you'll be trying to take your pants off over your head in no time.

And of course I shall be there organzing. You want to start getting a group together to have another go at the dropzone.com formation record ? I'll organize it again if you all want.

Tell me about it. I see women here who must have taken time out from being hooked up to the gravy IV to get into those outfits. Just before I get slammed by the fat police, If you're a guy, and too familiar with the great taste of butter, I want you to keep your damn shirt on too.

Hundreds. Luckily, both my rigs are featured in the new Wings poster and handout. The Ext is the best rig I've ever jumped, period. But then, I am biased.

This is true, but sorry girls, I'm taken.

I'm about as interested as I would be listening to them talk about them taking a dump to be honest. If you've got a lot of energy to talk about having sex, you're probably not getting any.

Just got back after three hours sleep and 28 travelling. Get Deuce to post pictures of the foam party. Large ways, prop blast, parties, nakedness, sauna loads, helicopter jumps, prop blast, parties, prop blast, parties, prop blast, and more prop blast. I'll be writing it up for Skydiving magazine soon. If you haven't been, beg, steal, lie and cheat. Do whatever it takes to get there. I kid you not. See you all in 2006. I'm already counting the days.

I wouldn't deny it, but both those rigs are the earliest and first Wings designs. I've been on at Tom to get his back to the factory for a free retrofit for about two years now, but if he won't send it, there's not much that I can do. We had a few problems with certain size combinations in early 98, but the new design can be retrofitted free for any user who has that problem. The new line of Wings are totally redesigned along with the Ext series. We haven't had a single instance of main flap opening prematurely on these or any retrofitted container. If any user has had this happen, we haven't seen it yet.

Oh hitch up your skirt Sally, and hang on. There are just two type of C-130 camera flyers. Those who have been pushed off, and those who are going to to be. You didn't miss too much though.

Dude, just order it with soy instead. Once you get used to it, you'll never go back to milk of any type again. That stuff is just liquid meat. Also, after I read about the allowed pus count in milk by the USDA (yes, you read that right - pus), I won't ever drink it again. Basically, CA has one of the tightest regulation for the amount of pus allowed in milk, and there's pus in all milk. It equates to a thimblefull in a normal quart. If you saw me pour a thimblefull of pus in your milk, would you drink it ? Go read the milk facts at http://www.notmilk.com/

True. The reason for that is that they're all fucking sea monsters and swamp donkeys though, which is why most of the men have pissed off elsewhere.

Well, we'll just have to see if we can't do something for your 1000th while you're there. Come see me or Lesley if you feel like it.

You're lucky I haven't noticed. It's like being mauled by a kitten. I am off to Hercules Boogie tomorrow, to give selflessly of myself to the lucky Europeans. I shall deal with you upon my triumphant return. Bloody Mirage owners.

Just for clarification. I wasn't suggesting that companies routinely place untested equipment out in the public domain for them to finish it, and I certainly don't believe this to be the issue with Icons. Although I haven't jumped one, I have looked closely at them, and the fit and construction seems very well engineered, although the aesthetics of them are not to my personal taste, (which is of course completely irrelevant). So as you know where I'm coming from, I'm a sponsored Wings endorsee, and I've been involved with the company since the very early days. Even though we certified TSO23d with no problems, like all manufacturers, we are at the mercy of a lot of outsourced materials, such as ripcords, hardware etc. Also, the longer a piece of equipment is in the field, the more ways jumpers can invent problems to allow us to improve upon the original concepts. If we all stack up the current versions of our products againt their first iterations, the resemblances will be few if we've all being doing our jobs right. I applaud the way the Aerodyne have handled the problem. An honest and forthright respnse to a problem goes a long way to establishing the reputation of a product. Perhaps Bushman will let me jump one next week in Sweden. Better not let Henri see me though.

Henri was the main designer of the Javelin. The Wings itself looks a little like the Javelin in the reserve container, but the construction of the container and harness are significantly different from the Javelin. Put the two together, and you'll see major differences in design and construction. As for the Icon. It's got a little ways to go yet before it's proved itself a contender. Unless things have changed since I posted this, they are currently grounded in Sweden due to slipping hardware. This is the sort of thing that usually takes a year or two of public beta testing before the rig is shaken down right. All the major rigs go through this at some point. You have to ask yourself if you want to be first on the block withe the new toy.

Saw it. Bought it. Thanks.

I woukd say that it was a dig at all those who have been patriots since 9/11 only. If it was a dig at any public figure at all, I'd say it was aimed at Ashcroft, though I doubt that was it's sole intent. It is meant to be comedy after all. It was also rather funny, as is it's custom.

Thats like saying The place with the fried chicken in Florida is closed... Actually, if JP was to have the correct Edinburgh experience, it would have to be, as my good friend Mozzah used to say; "8 pints o'heavy, a white pudden supper, and a taxi hame" His desrciption of a perfect Saturday night in said town.

And chibbing.

That's because they feel sorry for you. We're a very compassionate race us Brits. We fly out Thursday, and you're rooming with DeBar, a situation not unlike going to the beach in a cramped car with hot vinyl seats, with a senile and over-excited incontinent labrador dog. Enjoy.

What a shame. It had a bigger IQ then the one in the White House. Probably wanna get a lesson on when to use "then" and "than" before you insult the intelligence of anyone else. - Ooh, a grammar flame from a knee jerk conservative. I'm devastated. If your're going to correct grammar, you probably shouldn't use contractions like "wanna" in your rebuttal. It makes you look silly. Please feel free to have the last word.

I was referring to registered Democrats dopey, not the worse of both parties that currently infest the government.

Hows that workin out for you? Yes. Has the pounding in your rectum gone away yet ?

What a shame. It had a bigger IQ then the one in the White House.

Funnily enough, Kerry's been pretty vocal in his support of the 2nd amendment, crappy partisan politics not withstanding. There are pro gun Democrats, just like there are pro choice Republicans, though they make up the minority in the governing bodies of their respective parties. Not every Democrat is a gun hater you know. Pretty much every registered Democrat I know owns a gun, and that's represented in the Congress to degree. I also regard myself as a liberal who supports gun rights.
