Oh. Dear. Lord....where's the mental floss when you need it? There's only so much of JP that I actually need to see. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Good boy...I didn't want to think you were slipping as you were getting along in years. BTW, I'll be up sometime in May or June to check out that Caravan. Now lets hope I don't bring bad weather with me or manage to break myself and my canopy at your DZ again. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Or these... Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Just how many usernames are you planning on registering? But, since you asked an actual question...yes, that can sometimes occur, especially since you haven't acclimated to rapid pressure changes. I recommend a good OTC non-drowsy sinus med such as Sudafed or Dayquil to help keep your sinuses clear. If it doesn't clear up on it's own though, you may need to see an ENT (Ear, Nose, Throat) doc with flight physical experience. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Yanno....you're new here, but you learn fast! As for everything else that has been going on around here, trolls can reference the below. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Why, yes...I think you may. I'll run that by D and see what she says, but who doesn't want a garden gnome?! Hell, I already have underpants gnomes. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Sunshine is more of a "pussy" person. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

It's better when you hear from him in person though, since he has that cool accent thing going on. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

I love the sushi! Okay, since Sunny doesn't know her schedule, but she is close to Rantoul, lets go ahead and shoot for the last Friday of the convention. Say, somewhere around 7-8 ish? Mar, when you get back on, PM me your cell # as I lost it, also send me your MSN Messenger ID as I wanna add you to my people to bug list. Okay, I'm off to Wal-Mart to get some things for my new house! Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

You can wear whatever nice thing you want, hon, as long as it's not shorts and Teva's. Hmm...as for where to go, Zeemax and I found that great sushi place in Champaign, or we can go to that steak restaurant just outside of the airport. People that ate there spoke highly of it. I'm open to suggestions though. As for a day, let's go ahead and lock it to Sunny's schedule, as you and I will be there all week, but I don't think she will, and we'll go from there. We'll wait to see what she says.

You're not the only LE on here, and we have mods that are involved with LE at times (SkymonkeyONE, retired Army SF, and LouDiamond current SF). That's the great thing about living in a Federal Republic though...We're all entitled to express our opinions. You don't have to agree with them, but you do have to respect their right to say it. As for this site though, it's privately owned, multi-national, and It Ain't No Damn Democracy. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

You thought that was a threat?! BWAHAHAHA! Re-read it...all she was stating was that if you listen to things out in the real world like you do here, then you may not understand your instructors correctly and may never get off AFF until you get a few dozen jumps. In other words....Chill, Winston...you've already made enough threats yourself to get banned. The only reason you're still here is because HH hasn't shown up yet. So, keep digging your hole. I'll be over in another thread planning dinner with two lovely skydiving female friends that I've met because of this wonderful site.

Wow...I've never seen you all dressed up. This should be interesting! Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Good idea...Why not? I'll bring the slacks, loafers, and button-down shirt. We'll have the town completely fooled, they'll never believe we're really skydivers. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Yanno...I was supposed to be out playing pool with some friends, but this is too much fun to pass up. Well, that and one of them cancelled... eesh...a thread about lil' ole me. I'm flattered. As for handling the two of you, I think I'm more than up to the task of taking two smart and good looking women to dinner. Hell, I'll even let Sunny use a real fork this time! Even if I do think it's cute to watch her eat her salad with tweezers. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

There....fixed it for ya'. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

A positively fantabulous idea, Mar. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Me too. Next time go to kitchen, bring pie. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Well, since it is you we're talking about here. It's a definite! Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

I knew there was a reason I loved you, Mar. I don't think he understands just how small the skydiving community is, DZ.com non-withstanding. By the way...I still owe you dinner after you cooked for me on your birthday. Maybe I'll take you out somewhere nice during the WFFC.

5'8", 265 geared. I'll see you at WFFC. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

And you rode it home that way?! You should have taken it straight back to the dealer and started tearing ass. There's no excuse for their tuner to have uncrated the bike and thrown it together that negligently. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Good catch on the carb synch, Derek. My last bike was fuel injected so I'd completely forgotten about that pain in the ass. Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™

Dude....*shaking head* A bike is one thing you never want to skimp on maintenance on. The price he quoted is more than fair. Otherwise, I suggest you shell out about $50-ish bucks and buy the service manual for your bike. If your bike isn't fuel injected, you're also getting close to needing to probably get the valves adjusted, too. Your plugs could be causing your idle problem, but you probably just need the idle adjusted. The plugs need to be changed anyway. Don't just change them though, you need to look at them to see what has been going in inside your engine. As for lubing your cables, yes, that's a good thing to do. Sticking cables is a bad, bad thing. If you're unsure as to what's important, it's best to let someone else do it or get fully educated yourself. Bikes are high-maintenance, and for good reason as there are a lot of dangerous things that have the potential to go wrong. Have fun with that new front tire...heh...I hate breaking in new tires...they're squirrely for quite a few miles until you get them broken in, but it's always more fun to break them in by seeing how close you can get your pegs to the ground around the corners.

You rock miss mama.
