This isn't the first time the bully has pulled this crap. I'd be surprised if the school isn't already aware of this persons unacceptable behavior. When you go to speak with the people at school, document it, meet with the administration write them a letter and let them read it at the meeting. Then send it registered mail to them with what was discussed. Don't know how big your town is, but a court issued restraining order might work if its issued and the poor little bully doesn't comply, Jail! Same thing with the police, report it ,get a case number etc. The cops have dealt with the bad boy before. Don't expect to much from the school or the police, have you considered talking with other parents at the school. Your son isn't the only one being victimized. Power in numbers. R.I.P.

Not IMO. I left my rig in the closet for 6 yr's in a gear bag and before I jumped it, gave the harness container a good inspection for signs of wear or exterior damage (mice) got a fresh repack for the reserve and had to have the damn cypress checked & batteries. The main worked fine with a six yr old pack job

>>No video, but we did get a lovely Suitable For Framing certificate. Does that count?>> Only if we get to see it>And yes, it's the first marriage for both of us at least of the legal-type. I suppose we could buy some beer, but everyone seemed to want the champagne last night. I think beer would have been politely ignored. >> Free Champagne would work great at a DZ!!! Every one Buy's beer! >>But then again there weren't any skydivers at the party. >> Congrats again. (my second) R.I.P.

Skydiver's are into skydiving none of that army gung ho hooah stuff and is a limited market. OTOH the army does have a world class skydiving team The golden knight's they might help you out with some skydiving stuff for the wrapper and they get army recruiting stuff in return. Recruiter says Candy little H.S. boy/girl with picture of army sport parachutist on wrapper. Join the army and they'll give you candy and get to skydive! Lot bigger market than poor skydivers or recuiting kids with war paint and big bullets. Do we get a piece of the action if the army accepts your proposal to help their recruiting program? A nice parachute rig with your company logo and/or a Humvee would work for me. R.I.P.

We saw a commercial jet do a wide turn at Cam Rahn Bay the shoulder had a very thin top coat of asphalt with sand underneath. One side of the main landing gear hit the shoulder and punched righ thru the jet engine were very close to the runway. The pilot ried to put the pedel to the medal 4 engine . NO go got a tug pulling and engibe running still no go. Pilot was not happy. They finally did it the hard way unloaded the plane (cargo) dug a gradual slope from the tires to the concrete runway and laid down steel runway mat in the sand. With the jets screaming and the tug pulling The plane made it back on the runway. Pilot was very

Cool. Why the webcams in the cockpit? I just hope that the cams don't have integrated microphones....some interesting conversations can come up in the cockpit on a long flight.. Mike In Bills last photo it looks like the pilot might be taking a break. A wbcam might be a good idea R.I.P.

Hi Doc Glad to hear how your doing. We were concerned about your recovery We've known some peope (wife included) that got injuried in various types of accidents.I'm not a DR but we found out that there are two types of injuries that can occur in a accident. Physical and emotional. Some people suffer from both. The emotional injury can take longer to heal than the physical one. If you feel the need to talk to someone don't hestitat to seek help. It could help speed you recovery. Your pilot did a great job. We've lost a number of friends in similar situations due to pilot error. Might help to remember it could have been a lot worse.

Laid off. Downsized. Displaced. Freakin' ditched.

G.I. bill is to good to waste how about going to school to be a pilot, A&P mechanic, or the good standy Music school so you can get a job as a Piano Player in a whore house. -

Hi Mr AlphaMale Damn man you weren't kidding when you said you wanted to jump! We hear a lot of wanna do's but few been there done that In 1-2 weeks 3 seconds vs 45 seconds. Take a look at your watch and look at the seconds tick by. 45 seconds is a long time even when your flying at 176 MPH

Hi Chaos I was going to say 3-4% is less than adequate. But at this time with the high rate of unemployement in general and the software industry in particuler anything is better than getting laid off. As far a not discussing salary issues with your coworker's. That's the empoyers rules, it for their benifit not yours.IMO talk with folks you think you can trust, but be subtle. R.I.P.

I agree this is some very serious shit so maybe the perjury thing is more serious ie Martha. We went to court & got a temporary restraining order returned two weeks later to get it made permanent. The other guy showed up with his mouth piece and the guy denied everything. The mouth piece tried to say it was us that had commited perjury in making the complaint. wanted us to pay attorney fee's etc. We kept our mouth shut the guy had to pay his own attorney fee's (we didn't have one). The court wasn't concerned (in this minor case) about who commited perjury. Just the restraining order (also denied). In Kevs situation there may be a false police report etc. More serious if the DA wants to pursue it. No win situation for Kev now just needs to minimize his loses. (32 hrs in the holiday inn) Shame it's not worth sueing someone that doesn't have any money. R.I.P.

There's a rumor about a frat (Archons...) around here saying that's how they initiate their freshman. is that an ohio thing????? It must be a Frat. thing the "Party"I was talking about happened in Seattle Wa. To give the frat rats the benifit of the doubt, I guess the story being reported in the Seattle times could be considered a rumor. Like skydiving incidents. R.I.P.
