It's hard to say. By the time you get your license you've already spent a good chunk of change, so I doubt it's purely financial. I guess the sport and perhaps more importantly, the people at your dropzone just have to rub you the right way during the "shiny new A-license" phase. If you tear open the envelope your A-license comes in and the first thing you do (besides say, "Hmm... Hertz Discount... That's kinda random.") is slap that blue sticker on your car, chances are it's rubbing you the right way.

Welcome to the wonderful world of digital signal processing. You don't write "and" in that situation though. "And" is like a decimal point. (i.e. 157.9 = One Hundred Fifty-Seven and Nine Tenths) "now that's funny right there, I don't care who ya are." I don't know if decks were actually made, but Saddam was the Ace of Spades, rather than the king.

congrats... the next several hundred will go by a lot faster.

what program are you using to watch the DVDs?

I'll be sure to strap another cam on my head. That'd look pretty special...

I'm not a huge tree-hugger or anything, but it sort of bothers me that they just dump the plane in the ocean. It was a pretty small aircraft (~12ft long) and wasn't carrying much fuel, most of which was used on the flight. It'll probably end up making a nice artificial reef somewhere.

0:13:0 Hanging is a lot of fun, I think we need more camera flyers on ours next time though.

I've been wanting to get a snake for a while but I've held off to do research into what I'm getting myself into. I'm leaning towards a ball python, but even now I still want all the details I can find. When buying a pet (particularly an exotic pet) you aren't buying a household appliance, it's a living thing. Understand it first, then go for it.

if you have a problem where you find you're running out of underwear too quickly, the proper solution is to buy more underwear, not to subject your current underwear to extended tours of duty.

not as good as water! I'd avoid chemicals of any type after donating for at least 12 hours.

I felt this one in Manhattan Beach. No jolts though, just made the whole office sway back and forth for about 8-10 seconds.

the latest...

"Well Billy, your friend probably hasn't heard of a little something called the food chain."

Congratulations. I remember the week or so between when I graduated and when I started working quite well. Enjoy it!

No more "freefly long-distance" I swear. btw Tomas, does Sam still skydive? Do you? If you answered yes, wtf haven't you two come out to California?

Any anticipation you've felt regarding video can not compare to how I've felt since Tuesday when this arrived in the mail... ...is it Saturday yet?

You're killosofying the funnitude of this conversationism.

Ryan, you are way too young to be so ... It's all part of an elaborate sinister plot. If people think I'm a stoic, then the twice extruded dogshit I call humor comes off as comedy gold... ...what could possibly go wrong?

I'm not dressing up like a male stripper.

"That chainsaw you've got there looks like it's got some blood on it, why don't you toss that in the trunk before you get in, eh?" "I'd rather hold on to it." "Well, I suppose that's alright. Where'd you say you were heading to?" "Out of the country." "Going to get some lunch in the states, eh?" "..." "...okay, well it's just up the road a bit, I'd be glad to give you a ride."

Alright, let's not get carried away... I mean, were you really getting kicked in the nuts during the first couple years? Had they dropped yet?

I have soooooooo much to learn in this sport...

The many people on dropzone.com that have met me at boogies, and have never talked to me since are all testament to my weirdness.

I take the specs from the customer... ...and give them to the engineers.
