  1. I just love communication clarity. Can ya hear me now? AMDG
  2. Goth #2.7182818284590500 I'm a "natural" goth. AMDG
  3. What would I say it for? Five bucks, or maybe just as a vocal warm up exercise. Let's try it: "A skydiver wears a helmet." Hmmm---fun, but I prefer Cindy Brady's "Seven silver swans swam silently seaward." AMDG
  4. Yah thats me. Take me to bed or lose me forever, you gorgeous hunk 'o man! I'll be flying into Burbank for the New Year, so I look forward to seeing you soon. Kisses. Oh, there really is a Santa Clause! :::lighting candles, laying out flannel jammies, preparing rig for inspection::: AMDG
  5. I calls 'em as I sees 'em. Perhaps my jump numbers are too low to be offering this kind of commentary??? p.s. Is that you in your avatar? AMDG
  6. Taking marital difficulties like this and advertising them to the outside world is a betrayal in and of itself. Well, at least you're both even. Smile and realize that this is the beginning of the end of your marriage. Happy New Year and best of luck on your new beginnings!
  7. Whorehouses?!? Hmmm...now that's an idea... No, I work for the CDC and all my gifts are stolen from work! AMDG
  8. p.s. if anyone's planning on heading out to Taft for the $14, 14K ft climb in Mike Mullins' King Air, please shoot me a p.m. I've never been there and would love to check it out. AMDG
  9. Follow Kris' lead (Nightingale) and do a coach jump over at Elsinore. I did the same thing when I'd finished up my AFF at Perris with one solo. I'm at Perris this Wednesday-Sunday. I know Kris is going to borrow Michele's rig soon (so she doesn't have to pay a rental fee) and jump at Elsinore. Let us know when you're heading over there so we can look out for you and you'll have some friendly faces of encouragement. AMDG
  10. And the first session of this camp is nearly upon us.... AMDG
  11. I agree--I find that I, too, am deeper & deeper into denial with regard to age difference with each passing year...
  12. Can't wait to meet you. I've PM'd you my mailing address so you can send me a plane ticket. Love, Schmoopie. AMDG
  13. I couldn't agree more; as long as she's doing exactly what I tell her to, I find that I'm usually pretty happy. AMDG
  14. A good reason to set them yourself before handing the rig to a packer... Extending this logic, is there a reason we shouldn't also fold up the canopy, put it in the d-bag, secure the lines, and close the flaps before handing the rig to a packer? I start to wonder what kind of service are these people really performing... AMDG
  15. If you can reach, I think the pound of bacon is superfluous... AMDG
  16. Ummm ... just to be sure I'm clear; my point was that the DZs' policies seemed perfectly reasonable and that just like the Credit Department of the casino wants to make sure your markers are good, the DZ wants to make sure your ego isn't writing checks your body can't cash (to borrow a phrase from Top Gun :D). And, that its a good idea to call ahead to manifest to see what kind of documentation they'll want from you. AMDG
  17. This all sounds alot like making sure the casino is in touch with your bank and that your credit line (or cashier's check) is all set to go BEFORE you get on the plane to Vegas. AMDG
  18. Sunday Dec 14 8am by the creeper pads... AMDG
  19. When are you jumping? I'll bring Michele's gear out to you...unless Michele is coming out to the dropzone just so's we can enjoy her cherubic smile. :::whistling, looking skyward right::: AMDG
  20. So do I. But, start with the ProTrack and order it from BadDog Skydiving which has the best price I've found for this product. You'll appreciate having the logbook features of the ProTrack from the very get-go. AMDG
  21. Pretty Ugly (oops, this one's been done" How about "Shit-eating grin?" AMDG
  22. Where in the world does this Ivan guy get off? You'd think there are no new topics to discuss
  23. ***** 5 STARS! (out of 5) I bought a pro-dytter and a digitude (for which they communicated to me immediately that the digitude was out of stock, but that they were going to have the manufacturer ship to me directly). Both items were the best prices I could find. Both items were received in a timely fashion. They have the best price on the pro-track and alti II that I've found. (however, I actually found someone at a local DZ to match these prices including the shipping.) I believe they can be reached at merchant@baddogservices.com AMDG
