Um, kallend? I have secret for you. He's a political creature.

Really???? And what if you found out that the guy who sewed it together was drunk and used the wrong stitching, and you blow a couple of cells on opening and you break your back landing? I don't understand how your thoughts on this thread are 180 degrees different from your thoughts in the waiver thread? This isn't 180 degrees different. Reread my dz posts. I would never sue the dz as an entity, only individual players and only in situations arising form activities not directly related to skydiving [the lead pipe while boarding example]. When I mentioned drunkenness, that was concerning riggers. I sign no waiver for a rigger, and I wouldn't because I can't take responsibility for their work. FAA et al say I'm not allowed to check up on it once the pin is closed. The main, on the other hand, is my choice to buy, I have an infinite number of chances to inspect, have the opportunity to have rigger inspected, and last time I check, spiraling into the ground is unlikely [for me at least] in your scenario. That's why we have the little silver handle. ps - will you be my new arch nemesis? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

good and reasonable point and I like it. Just the same, who takes responsibility for me skydiving? That would be you, just it's me for me. I just don't like the idea of working with absolutes when anyone's ass is on the line. [exceptions include war, self defense, and capital trials] I simply disagree with bill that signing the waiver is giving my word not to sue. I read it as agreeing not to sue until mens rea comes into play. ps - love the sig line.

Yeah, I put my ass on the line when I go skydiving, and I know I call fall by my mistake or someone else's. But if somebody pushes me off the line/over the edge intentionally, that goes beyond what's in the waiver [rather, as aggie correctly points out, the release of liability]. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Yeah, but you're not going to Mardi Gras, so you'll be SUCKING!! It's been too long for me [think entire repack cycle] but that'll all be fixed come Friday. Moss Point here I come. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

You know that's dated from three days ago and there's no mention of it on any reputable news source. Hell, I can't find it listed on any site that doesn't have "rumormill" in the URL witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Wow, the voice of reason is the first to reply to one of my threads. I never thought I'd see the day. By the way, I don't know if it's that your writing style seems similar to my own influencing my opinion, but I thought that was a very well constructed post. Articulate, containing substance without becoming a novel, a touch of sarcasm without dripping venom, and a nice little F-U closer. Nice.

THIS is post whoring. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

I just had to say, excellent post my friend. You quoted an outstanding artist who has somehow fallen by the wayside, you have offered fair insight with a simple choice, and you referenced the Matrix. Short of quoting the bard or mentioning Marseilles, I don't know what you could have done better. Well, I'm sure Ivan would've appreciated uploading a picture attachment of certain anatomy, but that's neither here nor there.

Well, now that you and I have totally hijacked the thread, I doubt anyone else is still reading, so I can tell you that mine is only a very few jumps away. I wonder if they sell purple and gold whipped cream? Maybe the PMS will grace me with pink whipped cream...? We'll see.

You're not going to the Mardi gras Boogie!! (tear) C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon you just gotta go. I promise I won't bite. unless you ask witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Why does it seem so hard for peopel to grasp that the chain of legal responsibility is broken by an intervening criminal act, such as theft? Somebody steals it, it's not your responsibility anymore, unless you somehow facilitated the theft. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Yeah, I totally agree. Riggers need to fess up and take responsibility for their rigging, mechanics need to fess up and take responsibility for their maintenance, pilots need to take responsibility for their flying, etc etc etc. Got some more silly absolutes you want to throw around?

Yeah, it gets pretty hairy [and so do the local women] but staying in and around Birmingham is still better than 90% or so of Tenn. ...scary... I got called "boy" today, and it took me a minute to realize he wanted to insult me. You know, sounds like "baw-oy." I laughed at him when I figured it out. Know why? His very existence makes me feel 100% better about myself. It's like watching Springer and feel sorry for humanity but much better about yuorself. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

And if you read his later post, you'd see that he apologized for not realizing this was going on in the UK.
