  1. I've heard that fat people are awesome in bed because they dont know when they might get it again so they always perform their best Anybody care to validate this myth?
  2. Sorry, I dont consider this complicating the situation. I consider it being a safe and aware skydiver. Disagree. Depending on altitude, I dont think altimeter failure is reason enough to jeopardize other jumpers exiting behind you. Off topic, but yes I agree Off topic once again, but yes I agree And to the original poster who commented on starting an argument. Dont think of it that way..this is all just constructive (or deconstructive depending on who you ask) opinions flying back and forth. But once again, just please remember to check with your instructor.
  3. Dude....Yes, I know what he is talking about. My response was to your comment about pulling high not being an issue. Pulling high is an issue. At the very least if there are no other options I would suggest flipping over to check the airspace above you and / or tracking in either direction perpendicular to the flight line. If you are high enough, you should have time to do either or and still pull at a safe altitude. However, at the end of the day it is best to check with your instructors and follow their advice and not the advice you are gonna receive from anybody on this board, me included
  4. Not much someone can do about this. I was referring to purposely opening at a higher than planned altitude, not an accidental opening That was my point exactly. The poster i was responding too seemed to think that separation cures all when it comes to people being above or below you.
  5. My advice for what its worth, IGNORE this advice. Yes there is a degree of separation on exit but nobody here knows the original posters flying capabilities. How do we not know if he backslides across the sky? He could be all over the sky for various reasons. Pulling at a higher than planned altitude can ALWAYS present a problem if there are people exiting after you.
  6. Noooooo...everyone did so good at letting that last "kiss ass, suck up" thread go away. You just had to start up another one didnt you?

    Are you cheap?

    Every Memorial Day weekend the news reports how less people are traveling due to rising gas prices. How freakin idiotic are these people??? I for one could not imagine saying to myself "Well, guess I cant go to the beach this week because it is going to cost to much to fill up the car" Is it possible to get any cheaper than that??? Do these people actually exist?? Are you one of "those" people?
  8. i'll never forget driving to the keys and pulling over to get gas....the little fuckers bit so hard i couldnt stand outside for more than a couple of minutes...not sure what they were, horseflys maybe??? whatever they were they hurt like a bitch!
  9. Turn the grill off. Get in your car. Drive to KFC, enjoy.
  10. Why even warn people anymore? If somebody is stupid enough to fall for it then they deserve to get taken. If it doesnt happen with that scam it will happen with some other scam...Gene pool is pretty shallow out there nowadays.
  11. pick out the ones of people that either didnt give you any business or you just simply do not like. Visit as many gay porn sites as possible and register their email addresses on said sites. Repeat as often as necessary
  12. Is it really a crush thread? Really? Or perhaps is it another one of those secretly disguised kiss ass threads that we have done so good lately not posting? Oh well, I knew it couldnt last forever

    Who's Hot?

    I think my fav this week is Eva Longoria. Who's yours?
  18. Guiness? in a keg? Oh hell no. Keg beer is meant to be consumed in a fairly quick manner. That aint happening with Guinness. I vote you make a road trip here to virginia to the old dominion brewery and pick yourself of a couple of kegs of old dominion. Best beer on the planet!
  19. So I had the opportunity of spending 6 hours in JFK airport the other day, not much to do but sit around and just check out all the people. I was amazed at the calibre of TSA employees. They are nothing more than a bunch of uneducated $8 hour worthless government employees. These are the people we are placing our trust in to prevent our airliners from being used as missiles again??? The agent watching the xray machine as I was heading to my gate was actually falling asleep, another agent offered to get them coffee and made it very obvious to all the passengers that they were in fact falling asleep, I couldnt believe it. Fast forward to my flight from JFK into National Airport here in DC. The law now states that you are not allowed out of your seat within 30 minutes of arriving at national or departing from. Within 15 minutes of landing at least 6 people got up to use the bathroom. A passenger seated behind me brought this to the attention of the flight attendant. The flight attendant made excuse after excuse and described it as an issue they deal with every day. The passenger then stated it is "not an issue" but a federal law designed to prevent "planes from fucking blowing up". He then informed the flight attendant that he would be reporting the flight to the TSA. I gave him kudos and then thought to myself, fucking great...a bunch of $8 hour monkeys will be dealing with the complaint. We are fucking doomed i tell you, doomed. It is only a matter of time before the shit happens all over again. Our jackass president should take a stroll through a public airport one day to see just how pathetic his employees are and just how unsafe this country really is
  20. yeah, same here so i can put it towards my birdman suit too...oh wait, what am i saying...i just received my brand new gti a couple of weeks ago bwwaaahhaaaa
  21. If you cant stand up a landing under normal circumstances then you deserve a couple of little scratches on your hands
  22. First off, it is a tandem, not a tanTem. Secondly, I am sorry to hear you werent happy with the experience. Tandem masters are human, some have personalities, some dont. Do not let one sour experience influence your decision to become a skydiver. As far as the refund goes I would check the dzs website for their policy and/or call back at a later date and personally ask the DZO what their policy is. All dz's have different policies when it comes to refunds.
  23. I jumped my new GTI for the first time 2 weeks ago. All I can think about now is jumping it everytime i go out. I'm curious, how often do you mix up your jumps? or is the nylon crack really that addictive and that is all the majority of wingsuit jumpers do?
  24. dat right der would be da infamous elusive maryland frog eating snake...dangerous critter if ya ask me! one of those bastards ate my frog too poor pepe, i still miss 'em
