  1. File it. If you meant my refund -- well, I've gotta pay for WFFC somehow. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  2. Hey, the first month we were in Vegas, Lynn rear-ended a newly retired LVPD Sergeant. Fortunately both her car and his were '72 Impalas, so the damage was minimal -- we never did get the wrinkled nose repaired. The next week she got a ticket for speeding in a school zone. Any questions why I always drive? Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  3. Our very own Bill Flynn (bodypilot90 on dz.com) has a dachshund that answers to "Toggles". Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  4. We will be happy to give you the occasional lift to Sebastian as well. If you need any tips about the Orman/Flagler area... I'm open to suggestions, please send them my way. As you can tell, I can't even spell the name of the city. Just going from a broken up cell phone call and Ormond was what I got. I'm all about going to Sebastian! You can spell just fine -- my fault for not proofing my post. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

    HEY ASSHOLE!!

  7. Bigot. The Wings will skate Lord Stanley's Cup again this year.....end of debate.
  8. If you've got Weatherbug on your computer you've got much bigger problems than where it is set. Run Ad-Aware or Spy Sweeper and sit back in shock. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  9. Tried 'em on? Tried 'em on? You have GOT to be kidding me, girl. My smacky-booty Pantz and a T have been along on my last 10 jumps... Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

  11. Yes, but unless you have the old style CYPRES with the hard-wired cutter , it is no problem to swap a two-pin cutter into place; even if you do have the old style, it will be changed over when it goes in for 4 or 8 year service.

  12. SDC = Skydive City? Not Skydive Chicago? Just wondering. Spot on, Chris. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  13. Exaaaactly... Yet someone decided to start yet another thread about not bitching when your thread gets locked. I wouldn't call that progress. If THAT is what you think this thread is about, you're not truly paying attention. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

  14. A quick question to those who have asked why the Forums are moderated as they are or why a certain action was taken -- have you contributed anything to HH in return for using his site? Have you made any meaningful contributions to any threads in the topical forums? Or have you tried to get around the moderator(s)' actions by starting another thread on the same subject as the one that got locked/deleted? Or just gave the mods grief over it, despite repeated threads telling you not to do so? Not all the rules are gathered into one neat little bundle, but they are spelled out somewhere in the forums in unambiguous posts. Repeated explanations should not be needed by adults, even if they are skydivers. And that's all I've got to say about that.
  15. I brought The Rack(tm) to the DZ. But more importantly, I brought the brains, knowledge and ability that lies behind that storied feature here. Perris' loss is my and Sebastian's gain.
  16. All that high-speed intelligence, and none of them told you that "do you got" is poor English? Could you do half as well in Norwegian? BTW, we don' need no steenkieen ""s on this here web site.

  17. 9 hours worked in the store on Saturday so Da Bytch could have fun:4:0() Don't think I'm complaining about that first number -- she and I worked hard on Friday and had a great day (I even got in two jumps) and was more than happy to let Lisa enjoy the day. The third number was almost a "1" for my first cutaway -- had my right steering line knotted around my toggle -- the toggle would not go anywhere and I started a spinner. Countered it with left toggle and worked on it with my right hand while stealing glances at my alti; another hundred feet and I'd have chopped, but got it free on the last shot.

  18. It's now Sunday afternoon and we're still not sucking at Sebastian. Lynn and I got in two jumps already, the sky is clear blue and the winds are light and variable, a beautiful day indeed. The only sour note is that our own Skymama got hurt on the first jump of the day. Not seriously, but she is sitting on a couch by manifest with her ice on her sprained right ankle. She refused medication but is having to cope with crutches. I'll let her tell her story later -- first person reports are always best. Da Bytch went home about 0930 to "take a shower and a nap. I'll be back by noon." Sure, Lisa! Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  19. Ok, they are jumping, though the winds are keeping a lot of people on the ground -- as a result we are into Stupid Skydiver Tricks mode. Rob The Pilot started it with his water balloon slingshot then Mick came into the store and armed himself similarly in retaliation. Next thing I know, skybytch and Arlo came in and armed themselves, now there is pandemonium and there are very few safe (read "dry") spots to be found on the DZ. We, indeed, are not sucking at Sebastian. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  20. 1.Getting back into the air 9 months and a day after shattering my femur. Flying properly and just missing the target after that long delay and the huge formation of butterflies doing precision acrobatics in my stomach on the ride to altitude was just the icing on the cake. 2. Absolutely nailing my Level VII jump in a little under 3500 feet of freefall after repeating Level V and contemplating a repeat of Level VI. Seeing my instructor fly around to face me after maneuvers were complete and seeing the grin on his face? Priceless! Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

  21. Team Extreme's opposing doubles swoop at Panama City Beach Swoopfest last year. Watching two sets of two very high performance canopies setting up on opposite ends of a narrow course, turning in as one and crossing at the middle of the course at ludicrous speed was awesome. Definitely one of those "These are professionals, folks, do NOT try this at home!" moments. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

  22. Lynn and I will be there by this time tomorrow. Bring on the pain, ! Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  23. Glad to see you made it through (as if there was any doubt). Take care of yourself and get better quickly. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
  24. 1 sick lady on my hands:1:0 TLML and I finally got back into the air on Friday after nine weeks of battling colds/flu/weather and she felt drained afterwards, by early evening it was apparent something she had eaten did not agre with her. She spent the majority of the past 36 hours on the throne or the couch and I got tu use my nursing skills. She's better today, thnakfully, and even ate breakfast, though she did not go to work today -- still pretty weak. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

  25. Dang, didn't get to this threa until now. We'll be thinking of you, Sunshine. Enjoy the drugs and get well quickly. I'm loving you for a fourth time. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?
