You left out the part where someone forgets where to go 2 or 3 rotations in, and then everyone just stares at each other or laughs until break off. Owned by Remi #?

Check with one of your instructors first. I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't be okay with a student wearing one of these, but check anyway. http://www.chutingstar.com/newgear_en/pro-tec-classic-fullcut-helmet.html http://www.chutingstar.com/newgear_en/benny.html Owned by Remi #?

Pointless question. Some members of the LGBT intend to stop eating at Chick Fil-A, not all of them. Some subset of that group may choose to not buy gas. Owned by Remi #?

Never? Always? News flash: Being gay does not mean that you're incapable of having sex with someone of the opposite gender. Being gay does not prevent gay people from having children without adoption, test tubes, turkey basters, or surrogates. Owned by Remi #?

Ummm.. you dragged out a 4 1/2 year old post to ask this? Today is pretty much the same, except that my old pup passed away and I have tangerines on hand for breakfast instead of bananas. Owned by Remi #?

I'm not sure how common this is, but on 1 of the 3 HH dives I've been on, 2 people both decided to take a last second dive at the hoop when it was getting close to break-off and got jammed inside the hoop together. Fortunately, the hoop broke as they and the people holding it struggled to free them. Rebar would have been a bad, bad thing on that jump. Owned by Remi #?

Number of jumps required to jump without a jumpsuit?
labrys replied to DcloudZ's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
That sounds like fun! I'm familiar with USPA rules, not CSPA, so please get advice from someone who has a clue. Also take the comment about loose clothing that can cover your handles to heart. Get a gear check before you jump. Get it from someone who's been instructing or coaching you until now. Owned by Remi #? -
Number of jumps required to jump without a jumpsuit?
labrys replied to DcloudZ's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Jumping without a jumpsuit isn't about qualifications or jump numbers, it's about whether or not a jumpsuit is necessary for the type of jump you're doing and who you're doing it with. What is it that you want to do? Owned by Remi #? -
What gay rights crowd? Oh, you mean the people bitching about CFA? That's not a gay rights crowd, that's a small minority of gay people bitching about CFA. What base value system? I know gays who don't want the federal government in the business of defining marriage. I know gays who don't give a rat's ass because they don't want to look like or act like straights. I know gays who are religious missionaries. I know gays who sit around and stare at their navels. I also know a couple of gays who are offended by the CFA thing. But they're not offended or surprised about the companies stance on gay marriage. They offended because CFA donates money to organizations that actively defame gays with blatent lies. That kinda pisses me off too because I believe in fighting an honest fight based on the truth. So yeah, I guess my core values about truth are offended. It's a pretty shitty hole to be stuck in, not a goal. Someone lies about you, so you argue back. They take their deep pockets and use it to make the lies louder and more horrible, you try to argue back... And lots and lots of ignorant people believe those lies and they think that they're supporting free speech and christian values (and as far as I know, telling lies isn't one) when they're just feeding the machine of hatred and defamation. Congrats to all of you. Back to staring at my navel. Owned by Remi #?

GNS3 is only really useful for routing and maybe firewall testing. Many real world networks incorporate L2 stuff that GNS3 is useless for. Owned by Remi #?

Mine starts with numbers from Illinois. The only time I've ever lived there was when I was in tech school for the Navy, about 25 years after my SSN was issued. Complete mystery to me why it's like that. Owned by Remi #?

(?) Dropzone Drop Zone Databank Reviews
labrys replied to WoodlandWookiee's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
You'd be better off visiting a few of the dropzones that you're interested in and talking to the people there. Watch them interact with students, ask questions and get a feel for the professionalism and vibe. Owned by Remi #? -
Pic of the Day: Slide over human malfunction [worth a look!]

Using something, even without commercial gain, can still be an infringement. Non-profit educational use is a consideration when claiming fair use, but it's not the only consideration. Owned by Remi #? -
You *might* get an answer about where to find instructors if you post what country you're in, region, state, city, etc. It would probably also help to mention exactly what it is that you're looking for instruction *in* Owned by Remi #?
