  6. So you're not Spence's 3rd ID? The mods know who you are, or at least your IP. A simple comparison would be all it took. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

    Dating?

    In a perfect world, this would make perfect sense; in my experience, the exclusivity you speak of, is a one-way road ... O Most times if you want to be exclusive they'll say they are as well. If you find out they're lieing about it, get out right then. It's all balance, compromise and negotiation...
  8. Yes but when shit happens rather than address and admit THEIR issue the standard airline philosophy is duck, dodge, deny. If they'd just either own up to shit they damage or break or institute a policy stating that your bags and its contents should be able to survive being thrown from "x" height, fine. Another reason customers are fed up with the most big businesses: they're still so damned inconsistent: service, quality, etc. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

  10. I had a similar issue there before Labor Day weekend last year... I didn't have my logbook so was gonna stay on the ground but noooo... they had to call a DZ back east and confirm I'd jumped recently so was forced to rent gear and make a few skydives with a hottie. I think the staff was all smiling and nice too. Bastards... Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.
  11. I've seen that vid... It is sorta funny. Ya know I realize it's tough to survive in any business but I'm sick of big companies (in all industries) whining about it and getting government $$$ or discounts because they sell their "products" at a loss. If a city wants to pay them to fly their when the route is a money loser, they should either do so on a sliding scale or a flate rate where they make $$$ just on that or at least break even. Of course the biggest issue with all of these large companies is there aren't really large companies anymore. They're a conglomeration of subsidiaries, franchises, merged entities, etc. which happen to be operating under the same name. Sorta like mini governments... Even within, things are usually so cost centerized and departmentalized any operating efficiencies that could be gained by combining like groups, data and other resources is such a political and territorial battle most don't even try so just like government, they just raise prices (taxes)when they need more $$$ when their costs go up.

  12. What year? It may have been our very own RevJim.

  16. Gate Check isn't always an option on larger flights. When flying from Philly - Charlotte on a full flight with my rig in a bag when getting on the Flight attendent said there may not be room for my bag and she said she'd check it. I asked, "Gate check it?" and she said no, regular luggage check. Luckily there was space on the plane for my rig.
  17. Well if you want to take more than 5 oz's of stuff these days you pretty much have to check a bag. I had hookknives I wanted to take so there was no avoiding it... I traveled last weekend and since I had to check a bag and pay for it I brought more stuff that I probably would have if like in the "old days" you got a bag or two with your flight price. The problem is impression. Since we the consumers feel like the airlines are trying to nickel and dime and screw us over with fees, we try and screw back with carryon suitcase and super large check suitcases. It's a vicious cycle... Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.
  18. If you're gonna segregate, segregate the kids. Besides they're easier to visibly spot... Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.
  19. Do you feel no obligation to refrain from doing such things when children are present? If "Uncle Bolas" is at Chuck E. Cheese with his nephews he watches his mouth as that is a place for kids. When "Uncle Bolas" took his nephews and their mother to a DZ to let them watch him jump she was warned ahead of time and they didn't stay very long anyways. In retrospect it was a bad idea as one of them broke free of her and ran out to me in the LZ while a canopy was still in the air. Luckily it was just a Cessna DZ and the person nowhere near but... The thing you are forgetting is kids don't just show up to a DZ by themselves, someone has to bring them. Given that this is an adult activity they are exposing their children to it is uo to them to keep their child safe, in more ways than one. What's next? Family oriented cock fighting? Pornos? Tijuana donkey shows? Sorta reminds me when Vegas was advertising itself as family oriented...

  22. I know I am. You can unban him early if you want, I still don't see his name on the list. Having banning issues again? Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.
