mate - I know what you're feeling... I haven't jumped for ages cos of other commitments. Hang in there, look for no interest creedit cards and the sky will come back...

No, thanks. It was meant as a joke. Lots of people got it.. lots of people wont. If I wanted to turn it in to a debate, I would have posted it in SC. [does mad head bob thing] you go girl, uh huh *snaps fingers [/mad head bob thing]

the website is the vagina institute.... big enough hint?

bump go on the lads...

i knew we talked about this before - it just took me a while to find the thread... Here

Hi all, Got my DVD yesterday and firstly I'd like to say thanks to PD - 6 days from my initial inquiry to arriving over here, and yes, the DVD is region free

There was also a case where a studen in Deland took a 96 for a spin because the rig has the same colorings as their student gear (or something like that). Blues, Ian BWAHAHAHH! brilliant...

solid advice... I have to admit curiosity as to how you'accidently' jumped a 135? That must have been interesting when you did your canopy check... 1 thousand 2 thousand 3 thousand 4 thousand check can... fuck me! Where's the rest of my parachute?!

what's the IT equivalent of a whuffo? cause that's what my boss is...

Apparently my boss has decided that having one person responsible for the IT network isn't a good idea - and he's right. Where he's going wrong is telling me to train up one of the other staff members in half a day on how to setup, maintain and troubleshoot our network. Hell - I'm only just figuring out this Windows Server 2003 stuff and they want me to write an 'idiots guide' in case I die or something... where do I start? All of these people are completely IT-illiterate.... They're going to break my network as soon as I give them admin rights... anyone had to do anything similar? any help, advice, pointers or tips (or pre written idiots guides ) would be useful... Will

mmm... ? I could be tempted into the city.

Sister Hazel - Chasing Daylight - fantastic album. John Meyer - Room for Squares - a bit more chilled. Collective Soul - 7even Year Itch - Rocky(ish) Butch Walker - Left of Self Centered - Fantastic rock album

that could've been really, really nasty.... [shudder] looked like the freebag came close to getting caught up in the spinning mess before deploying the reserve - that would've sucked.

clicky

nick a dishwasher...

it really depends on the beer you were drinking...

Slappie, I'll leave your grammar alone for now... topher Don't make me whip out some l33t sp34k on yo azz.. I can totaly fuck up the english language like you've never seen before.. So keep your dictionary in your pocket with your slide rule. Better straighten up the shirt or your pocket protector is going to fall out.. no idea what you said there, but it sounded threatening...

both? but the former if I had to choose.... quantity over quality - quality will come with practice Edit - having real tyiping issues today.

yeah, it was cute for a few seconds, but then I got distracted by... ooo..look! [wanders away]

Yep...... ~R+R What's going on?

now the PW status is gone, what are the requirements for getting on the DD list? it used to be Old Hand... now what?

in a perfect world, where everyone has the same distance track over a given height and where everyone sticks to the dive plan, you would be out of the way... however, in the real world it depends how well you track and what everyone else does - if the people above you can track further than you cos they're flatter, or if they decide to break a little early for some reason, you could still find yourself near each other at pull time. It's far safer in small groups to know where everyone is at break off and track to a clear bit of sky. I'm not sure about larger groups - I'd guess at staged breakoff. I think the best general advice i've heard regarding breakoff, is that if you can't be together as a group at breakoff due to inexperience /fall rate differences, wait until you can till you do the jump... (Edit: This isn't meant as a dig - I'm prettty inexperienced myself, but I've been told this because I suggested the same idea you had to a more experienced jumper - he sat me down over a beer and explained why it was a bad thing)

depends how quickly I want to get to the bar after the last jump of the day, but usually do it myself

tell him to let you go early, or you'll do him for stalking you!
