    Ummm I could probably arrange that. I'm assuming you'd prefer the single one? I should tell you that I am far and above the tallest and youngest of all of my siblings. Hi Tallest One Single would be prefered thank you very much. Don't worry how short or old you single sis is. I can guarantee I'm way shorter and older than she is. Do you think sis might want to go with you to LP? If we're there I'll be the dude standing in amazons shadow for shade. R.I.P.

    the purpose of the coach rateing was to give a $$$ incentive to some of the experienced jumpers to jump with the new folks, that weren'y of the right gender. New rateing, more money to USPA to cover the admin costs of the rateing, higher cost to students to learn how to skydive. DZO can tell the student "go find a coach" so he doesn't have to listen to the students wine. USPA membership is down so what USPA turned into a DZO trade group a long time ago. The USPA membership gives the Tandems a warm cozy feeling Just the way it is and will be at some DZ's. R.I.P.

    I don't know, man. I think the light bulb in the ass is worth number of years myself. That's a pretty twisted punishment. In the spirit of SC The dude should have more time added to his sentence for stealing the light bulb. No wonder he was full of shit R.i.P.

    Hi ZippO Beware your messing with your soul for eternity. the big one know's allb & hears all even on DZ.com. we've never heard of any dead folks coming back and saying that they didn't get what the church promised them. Trust me my son I'll pray for your soul, if you end up in hell. READ the Waiver. SC gotta love it. Guns, politics and religion

    If you got the time you can minimize the shedding by using the brush and remove the hair before it falls off.

    "Back in the good ole days when skydiving was thriving, the manufactures spoiled the skydivers with all the freebie stuff (pullup cords, closing loops, key chains, etc)" ahem Skydiving is thriving more than ever, just ask the tandems, DZO's and their worker bee's. The cost of jump gear has continued to increase over the years and the cost of the goodie bag stuff in comparision is chump change compared to one demo canopy not being returned to the manufacture If the "Business" of skydiving wasn't thriving every DZ would still be useing a cessna. Fun Jumpers have turned into the farm team for the DZO worker bee's. After reaping the cost of AFF, gear, etc some DZO's & staff are to busy to mess with new fun jumpers. Not wineing just the way it is, IMO. R.I.P.

    Caught our 80# Lab (one of three) today standing on Top of the Kitchen counter. We Scratched our head, scratched our butt, and finally figured it out (I hope) the hound used the chair next to the counter as a step stool. So he could surf the counter and hang 20 Now we got the dog trained and moved the chair out of the kitchen We've got 300#s of dogs in the house and loving it. they think their lap dogs to.. R.I.P.

    Hi Bill For some reason the Boss (wife) keeps reminding me that bigger isn't always better There's been lots of wineing about the planes, vendor's, weather etc but safety is a big issue. The bussiness of skydiving works on efficiency & volume. These days there are lots of different disciplens, falling at different rates and opening at different altitudes. In order to get the max # of jumps/day to make "everyone" happy. The seperation between airplanes is cut to a minimum. Someone of the first stick opens high and someone from the next plane in the pattern opens at reguler altitude . add low experience jumpers into the mix & lots of canopies in the air, Shit happens Read the waiver, business is business It used to be if someone did something stupid jumping the only person they hurt was themselves and their loved ones. Now do something stupid and you can take another jumper with you. Eight way head down on a walk up load because there's a "shortage" of L.O.s R.I.P.

    Hi Twardo Yikes! that was a unforgetable demo We were jumping a westwind from a runway that was to short, with a pilot/owner that was just learning how to drive it. First thing we noticed was the largest piece of foam we ever saw set opposite the door to prevent jumpers from jaming the door on jump run. Then we noticed the pilot was using the whole runway on T.O. no wires but there was a road at the end of the runway. Some folks thought it was funny watching the cars get a buzz job until.... one time right after T.O. a big ass hay bale on a flat bed goes by. Don't think the plane would have made it. The DZO lready had the runway streatcher (more asphalt) scheduled. The pilot got more experience and got rid of the dumb skydiver pillow in the back of the plane.

    ....Does that mean I owe beer? Darling don't sweat the beer, I'm sure you don't have to pay for extra altitude We just hope that it (posting) was as good for you as it was for us (looking) R.I.P.
