And where exactly did you come up with this gem? I would suggest you learn a bit more about this sport and the actual rules regarding it before you take someone else to task, especially for a perceived infraction/irregularity. In case you haven't figured it out by now, no one really needs any license; having a license confers certain rights automatically (at least in theory), but with proper documentation, a skydiver should be able to obtain those same rights at any DZ. Having an actual license from USPA is only needed if a skydiver wants to instruct or compete under the auspices of USPA. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

It's like I can breath again -- got my cable modem hooked up this morning here at the house in Flagler Beach.

It was done a long time ago by the Catholic church. They were called "Indulgences". It was one of the corrupt practices that Martin Luther cited in his "95 Theses" . (the glorious results of a misspent youth in classical education, ne c'est pas? hehehe) Nah, not the classical education -- any third grader in a Lutheran elementary school could tell you the whole story, right down to "Ich kanst nicht anders, Gott helffe mir".

Following Rhino and Clay, I figured I'd bring you all up to date on developments here in JAX: Many of you know I have been gainfully unemployed since CA and I agreed to disagree in June of 2001. Due to the tech crash and other political/economic developments since, the job search has been long, painful and unfruitful. It is a buyer's market, folk, and old dinosaurs like me are not in great demand. A couple weeks ago, I got an email from a very respected executive placement firm that they had reviewed my resume and thought they might be able to help me. I went through several hoops, and had a face to face with them today. It was very encouraging. Tomorrow Lynn and I have a two hour session scheduled with them and if all goes well, I may rejoin the ranks of the active taxpayers early in 2003, as they feel there are things that are a good fit for me that will be open in the first four months. These are the heavy hitters, the folks that know the jobs that never make it to the ads. When they offer a candidate, most companies listen. I'm stoked about this opportunity. Please keep your fingers, eyes, legs, etc. crossed for us. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Did you know: While both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, according to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers until after they give birth in the spring. Therefore according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them from Rudolph to Blitzen, has to be a female . We should've known.

Even though it said earlier 0 fatalities, why did this indicate crew and passenger "Fat"? Or am I misreading? HW No, it's just misleading. It should have some better sort of separation.

Interesting question. My family has always enjoyed drinks and there seems to be more a few alcoholics as I look back. Drinl was always a part of get togethers and special occasions (such as the sun rising that morning). I learned to make the perfect martini for my Dad when I was about 10 or so, but was always given to understand that drinking was for the Big People. I was allowed to taste various drinks and didn't care for it much. On special occasions such as Thanksgiving, I was given a small glass of wine to go with the meal. My sons were brought up with the same ideas, but of course they had to learn the hard way, too. They both drink, but pretty much in moderation. The amazing thing that this thread brought to my attention is that with my Dad been gone these past 21 years and his folks that same year, my Mom's folks gone by '95 and with her death this past April, I am now that Patriarch of the family.
