  1. Well, we had a really good time at the Lincoln Sport Parachute Skyvan boogie just North of you this weekend. If we can arrange our boogies on different weekends next year, you might get more traffic from us. Club members drive a couple hours North of here to jump Mullins' plane in Luverne July 4th weekend. Contact the club at the first of the year, that is when the planning begins... blue skies, Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  2. Go to Couch Freaks Labor Day Weekend! I skip Convention every year to save my money for it. It is a great time and a great crowd. Skydive Arizona provides the Skyvan and Otters. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  3. I just rebuilt my hard drive and I believe I have exorcised the demons. Damn, everything seems so fast a squeaky clean. All the scars and sins of surfs gone by wiped squeaky clean. I almost feel virginal... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  4. This is piece by cummings that I read when life and its events are simply baffling. Sincerest condolences to friends and family. Lets have a safe Sunday. -Jon life is more true than reason will deceive (more secret or than madness did reveal) deeper is life than lose: higher than have --but beauty is more each than living's all multiplied with infinity sans if the mightiest meditation of mankind cancelled are by one merely opening her leaf (beyond whose nearness there is no beyond) or does some littler bird than eyes can learn look up to silence and completely sing? futures are obsolete;pasts are unborn (here less than nothing's more than everything) death,as men call him,ends what they call men --but beauty is more now than dying's when

  6. I would reclose it for free if it was my packjob. In fact, I would be pleased that you brought it back to me to fix. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  7. How about "Sous ma tub, Dr. Suess ma tub" -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  8. I know I am not supposed to answer this thread since I am a happy accomplished pud puller. I have had a couple floating handles that I extracted on the first try with a thumb sweep. Of course, I am frequently touching the touch flap and the handle on the ground so it is easy to reference. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  9. I purchased something a couple of months ago down under. The exchange rate then was .61. So about 150.00 USD. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  10. I found 2 that failed on the fatalities page. Both were over loaded according to the placard one by 80 lbs another by 45. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  11. Hum, Tommorrow: Godsmack concert demo Weekend: LSPC Skyvan Boogie Next Weekend: Another demo July 4: Mullins King Air Boogie in Luverne, MN (need to make some $ to fill in dates here) Labor Day: Dollar Daze with the Couch Freaks! -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  12. I'll add another endorsement for the pull out. I have a Wings pullout (the first non velcro one), because I insisted it couln't have velcro. Mine actually has a piece of type for the bottom flap retainer, before they started doubling up the fabric and tucking it back for a pocket. I have had it for the last 400 jumps with no real misshaps. I have dropped the handle and had to thumb sweep a couple of times, but I was easily able to grab it on the first try in both instances (it helps to rehearse this on the ground JIC). In addition to the other benefits, I think it is a more positive form of deployment. I do a lot of low jumps out of Cessnas (often times demos). I had several PC hesitations doing this with a throw out. It is not a problem with a pullout because the pin is out and the pc is inflated in the wind stream as it leaves my hand... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  13. If that loose drawstring wraps a d-line, you could have a slider all the way up mal. I have to be careful about the kill line tabs on my slider for the same reason. The farther that line hangs out of the slider, the more likely it is too happen. Maybe one continuous line through both channels in the slider, so there is no exposed tab to snag and still an easy to grab loop in between. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  14. Yup, it is pretty sad. If his other bats are loaded, this will probably stink as much as the Pete Rose thing years back. It will take some crafty PR for him to be anything other than a complete media leper. The other question is will the commissioner take games away from the club that he scored in, if his whole arsenal is loaded. pick up stixxx, Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  15. Not really, you have to purchase the 50 hours of coached tunnel time and 500 coached jumps accessories to get the results...
  16. The current World Champions Deland Majik uses Bev Suits. Damn can those bitches Fly! -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  17. There is also a Skyvan this weekend at Council Bluff's Airport celebrating Lincoln Sport Parachute's 43rd year. Boogie, Booze, Food and Prizes... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  18. Easy Sport, yer all wound up. I didn't author the list, I just passed it on because it was food for thought. Judging by your painfully tired reply, you had to think too. Pat yourself on the back for thinking, but don't have that beer yer gonna need those brain cells friend. I have voted every election since I have been registered, though I am admittedly a little less self-righteous about it. I even tried to join the military when I was younger, but was refused for medical reasons. I consider myself quite patriotic despite the embrassing shit we do on the international scene. I simply don't associate our current president with that which is American, more corporate fuedalist business self-interest. I never pledged allegiance to the monopolizing conglomorates that infect the United States of America. By the way, there are several veterans in my family. Of them, my little sister, a combat experienced naval aviator. I don't need to go thanking them again. Just because our president hiijacked the military for his own gain doesn't mean I dis-approve of the military. The military did a good job, they did what they were trained to do. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  19. Another suprise original response from a member of our military. Afraid someone might criticize your toy supplier? It is like a junkie stinking up for his dealer... Primitive... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  20. Normally not a political troller, but this was e-mailed to me by a friend, kinda funny, kinda frightening. -Hixxx The Resume of George W. Bush Past work experience: I ran for congress and I lost. I bought an oil company, but I couldn't find any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock for millions. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using tax payer money. Biggest move: Traded Sammy Sosa to the Chicago White Sox. As governor of Texas: I changed pollution laws for power and oil companies and made Texas the most polluted state in the Union. Replaced Los Angeles with Houston as the most smog ridden city in America. I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas government to the tune of billions in borrowed money. I set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history. Became president after losing the popular vote by over 500,000 votes, with the help of my father's appointments to the Supreme Court. Accomplishments as president: I spent the surplus and bankrupted the treasury. I shattered the record for biggest annual deficit in history. I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12 month period. I'm the first president in US history to enter office with a criminal record. During my first year in office, I set the all-time record for most days on vacation by any president in US history. After taking the entire month of August off for vacation, I presided over the worst security failure in US history. I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips than any other president in US history. In my first two years in office over two million Americans lost their jobs. I cut unemployment benefits for more out of work Americans than any president in US history. I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12 month period. I appointed more convicted criminals to administration positions than any president in US history. I signed more laws and executive orders amending the Constitution than any president in US history. I presided over the biggest energy crises in US history and refused to intervene when corruption was revealed. I presided over the highest gasoline prices in US history and refused to use the national reserves as past presidents have. I cut healthcare benefits for war veterans. I set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously take to the streets to protest me (15 million people), shattering the record for protest against any person in the history of mankind. (http://www.hyperreal.org/~dana/marches/) I dissolved more international treaties than any president in US history. Members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in US history (the 'poorest' multi-millionaire, Condoleeza Rice, has an Chevron oil tanker named after her). I'm the first president in US history to have 30 states simultaneously go bankrupt. I presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud of any market in any country in the history of the world. I set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases, more than any president in US history. My biggest life-time campaign contributor presided over one of the largest corporate bankruptcy frauds in world history (Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron Corporation). I spent more money on polls and focus groups than any president in US history. I'm the first president in US history to unilaterally attack a sovereign nation against the will of the United Nations and the world community. With a policy of 'dis-engagement,' I created the most hostile Israeli-Palestine relations in at least 30 years. I failed to fulfill my pledge to get Osama Bin Laden 'dead or alive.' I failed to capture the anthrax killer who tried to murder the leaders of our country at the United States Capitol building. After 18 months, I have no leads and zero suspects. In a little over two years, I created the most divided country in decades, possibly the most divided the US has ever been since the civil war. Records and References: I have at least one conviction for drunk driving in the state of Maine (my Texas driving record has been erased and is not available). I went AWOL from the National Guard and deserted the military during the Vietnam War. I have refused to take drug tests or answer questions about drug use. All records of my tenure as governor of Texas have been removed to the George Bush Sr.'s library, sealed in secrecy and are un-available for public view. All records of any SEC investigations into insider trading or bankrupt companies are sealed in secrecy and un-available for public view. All minutes of meetings for any public corporation on which I served on the board are sealed in secrecy and un-available for public view. Any records or minutes from meetings the vice-president or myself attended regarding public energy policy are sealed in secrecy and un-available for public review.
  21. Hand her a cup of ice and say "Blow job please, Whoo hoo!!!" No, problems with it here. I used to have pierced nipples, but gave them up for skydiving and motorcycling. They would vibrate rather uncomfortably against me if I didn't have a jumpsuit or leathers on. I also had one pulled out in a mosh pit, which was almost as great a rush as the original piercing. From my own observations, I think belly buttons, tongues, ears look good on a girl. Eyebrows, beauty marks and noses are good on a case by case basis. Nipples, mouths and clits are bad, some bodily forms are just fine the way they are making any kind of ornament a deficit. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  22. Well, I was thinking having the arms in front will have me de-arched through my upper body enough to put the legs out a little... I was also thinking about stretching both arms out in front of me keeping the profile of the wing completely under my torso. I think more solos sans camera are in order. The Xaos doesn't stand me up that harshly, it is nice slow opener. So, that is a plus... I already have an idea to mod my rig for both deployment systems. It is just a bad time of year to do it with only one rig to my name. thanks for the thoughts, Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  23. I had a new discovery that was a contributing factor in the opening. The tape with the pud handle eyelet on it came off of my bridle except for the last row of stitches at the base of the chute. This left my p/c trailing and extra 4 inches behind my hand which I think damn near left it on my back when I let go of the handle. I think I am going to experiment a little with body position before giving up the pull out. What do you think about crossing your arms across the chest with the legs out a little to change the airflow over the back a bit? -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  24. Rod Leisure, here is the link to some of his other stuff. Pretty freaky and cool... http://www.rodmansvisuals.com/helmetmain.htm -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  25. I have seen someone unsuccessfully giving chest compressions to stabilizing a friends head while his leg was being straightened and splinted from a broken femur. It is pretty haunting stuff. You need feel what you need to feel about it and move on. Sometimes moving on includes skydiving sometimes it does not. While I don't think you should let your emotions cripple I also don't think reason should deprive you of what you need to feel. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
