  1. Very nice. I wish I could get a bonus check like that Have fun and stay safe. Jump Scars remind us that the past is real
  2. I agree with you, but it presents us with one of those kinds of moral dilemmas like the Kobayashi Maru test in Star Trek - there really isn't a clear cut solution to this problem. As I was trying to point out earlier, it all comes down to questions of one's judgement and acceptance of responsibility. The problem I see here is that we are becoming less and less responsible every day (in many more aspects of life than just skydiving). I can easily see why Ron gets so agitated and short with people.

  3. I have to disagree dave. One morning I got to the dropzone and I don't know why, I just felt that there was going to be a cut-away that day and if I went up it was going to be me and it wouldn't be pretty. So I sat my happy ass on the ground, talked with the riggers all day, learned a heap of stuff and sure enough - there was a cut-away. As soon as that happened - it was off to board the plane for the next load Can't explain it - but when that little voice starts talking - sometimes you better pay attention.

  4. So? I guess I'm missing your point. Another analogy then would be, say I'm having a cookout in 2 weeks and the grocery story is running a one day special on baby back ribs for $0.10/lb - a killer deal. I don't need the ribs for two weeks but do I pass this up and wait and pay a much higher price? Same with the canopy, if I see a good deal on a canopy I eventually want to end up on but am not ready to jump right now, why should I be refused the right to buy it?

  5. And what if we have a situation like this - say I eventually want to end up on a swoop type canopy - like a stiletto 120. Lets say I find a killer deal - someone wanting to get rid of it cheap - say $100. No way I'd jump it now (in reality, no way I'd ever jump that
  6. perception and reality my dear....perception and reality... Jump Scars remind us that the past is real

  8. yeah... but she fails to mention some choice parts. I'm scrubbing dishes after getting MY beer confiscated and I hear this belch - something you'd expect to hear out of a 300 lb bald guy with acres of back hair - we're talking 100+ on the decibel scale I turn around expecting to see shamu or maybe a baby elephant that some how snuck in and there she is - all tiny and cute with a grin from ear to ear.

  18. How long have you been at Bragg? Rick's was the place to be a few years ago. Closed down when the city started revamping downtown. No idea if it's still alive or not. As for cloud nine - isn't that the little bar on the corner just off the rr tracks near the old channel 40 building? If so - don't go there... Jump Scars remind us that the past is real

  21. used too. got to expensive when income dropped. Gotta wonder if the results are skewed though - how many colleges/unis are in Boston alone? 55 I think? I know Boston's population swells each fall but most of those people vote at home, not where they go to school. So if its not a hoax - where did the iq numbers come from? How can you be sure they are actually residents of the state? Scars remind us that the past is real
  22. you mean this?!?!?! -> http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=26256&item=3292781185&rd=1 LOL...1899. I guess they are indestructible. Grand daddy always said the old ways were best. Thanks for the tip. Jump Scars remind us that the past is real
  23. #1,3,4,5. RW forum #2,6. Bonfire #7. Any forum. For this Forum...this fits. What if we talk about an armed 4-way? IC has hang gun OC has shotgun who would handle the .50 cal? That would be a bitch to turn with... not to mention how you'd have to work the fall rates Scars remind us that the past is real
  24. I've been thinking about picking up a sewing machine on ebay or at a flea market to practice my sewing so I can concentrate on other things when I take the riggers course. A search turns up so many types, brands etc. So, what type do you all use the most? Any recommendations as to a type for someone just learning? Are there any features I should look for? Any info is greatly appreciated. Jump Scars remind us that the past is real
  25. would you mind sending it to me too? I'd be interested in doing this for my fifth wheel too, but I live there full time. Probably would need more cells and bigger batts. Got plenty of sunshine though jumper03@dropzone.com Scars remind us that the past is real
