Guess that makes me a PUSS, huh (Poor Unemployed Skydiving Stiff)? Or am I just a PEST (Poor Employment Seeking Techie)? Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

When I wasn in the Air Force, we used to have one or more single guys who couldn't get home for the holidays over to eat and drink with us. It seemed to do them some good and even did us some good! Happy to say the my oldest son, who is career Army, continues the tradition, even when the house is full with his folks. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Yep "No Dogs" are allowed on the dropzone at Sebastian. I know several of them well as they are regulars. Dogs aren't allowed on the DZ, however. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

I can't speak for the BASE jumpers but at Flagler we got to see every sort of air activity; the looniest of all have to be those who "fly" gyrocopters. We always said that the pilots thought we skydivers were crazy, but we all agreed that we knew the gyro guys are crazy. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

I was passed by a honey wagon a few weeks back that had a variationon that theme "We're Number One in Number Two". But that wasn't the funniest thing -- on the back bumper was printed "Free Snow Removal". In Jacksonville, FL? Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

When we meet people from DZ.com, I introduce her as The Lovely Mother Lynn as that is how I refer to her on the internet. If you're curious about the origin of that, go to Wendy Faulkner's site and lookup the roster the the No Cheap Beer Society. When introducing her to others, I may refer to her as "my first ex-wife" as we celebrated our 23rd anniversary by getting divorced; I had fun during the period when we started dating again (and before we remarried) referring to Lynn as "my Arthur". Some got it, some didn't. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Stable as Shit? Silly and Slow? Super anal swooper? Satirical angst Sarcasm? Scotch and Sarsparilla? ??????? Ciels- Michele Michele, the Pro Track displays speed in two modes TAS (True Air Speed) and SAS (Skydivers Air Speed). I don't have the manual handy so I can't tell you the technical difference between them. I just noted that my speeds were SAS because someone was bound to ask "TAS or SAS?".

Wasn't on all day so just got around to seeing this thread now -- the three of us are very glad that Bitch Kitty came through. For the record that is myself, Lynn, and Bugs, our 18 year old kitty.

How about we knock of with these cockamammie suggestions for extraneous drivel in the profiles? If you want to know something extra about someone, ask them. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Research has shown there is a direct correlation between rig size and penis size. Smaller the rig, smaller the penis. I'm not making this shit up either. I swear I'm not.

That rig looks great. I like the idea of a light colored bottom skin with colored ribs/topskin. Go to Square 1's page and you can play with all the manufacturer's canopy coloring schemes. Oh, that's right, you said you were going to get Sabre 2, so you can go there or just to PD's webpage. Have fun. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Michele, Lynn had a two out situation around her 54th jump -- doing a two-way with the DZO's wife, still using rental gear, took it down to low for the FXC, usual story. I knew things weren't kosher when I saw her opening below me. As soon as the main was open, I saw this wide white ribbon flying behind her and realized that it was her reserve bridle and as she turned, the reserve deployed. She immediately guided the canopies into a side by side configuration and cut the main away and safely landed her reserve. You handled your first emergency well, no reason to think you wouldn't handle a two out as and decisively well as Lynn did. Oh yeah, both she and Mrs. DZO caught eight kinds of hell for letting the situation develop in the first place. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Which muppet(s) would you most like to skydive with ? .......
jceman replied to TheBile's topic in The Bonfire
That would be Statler and Waldorf. For those who can remember back that far, there used to be a D&D type game for the old Apple II called Wizardry. My best set of characters were all named for the denizens of The Muppet Show. Statler and Waldorf were two very powerful mages. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

how much distance can you cover from 13500
jceman replied to Rookeskydiver's topic in Wing Suit Flying
Not necessarily. Lynn and I compare our Pro Tracks after each jump we do together, and there seems to often be a 200 foot difference between hers and mine as to exit altitude. WTF? When we exit together? Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? -
