  6. haha, i remember you asking me if i had seen that the last night. She had me and Wingnut walking around looking at the dark ground for a while trying to find it. I looked up and realized the bonfire was looking at this group of people wandering around in the dark looking at the ground. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  9. Macca - we are going to get you one of these next year so you can't get hurt or catch any colds! www.zorb.com And no, you can't take it on the runway! _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  10. I wasn't at the auction, i was busy with other stuff. What was that all about? Some companies auctioned off stuff that was sitting on their shelves they didn't want anymore. I saw a Micron that was a year old get sold for $150 _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  11. Yea, I heard of a few vendors that were very pissed about the auction. I'm all about great deals, but if it starts having an impact to the industry just so 15 or 20 people can have a deal...well... _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  12. Personally, I don't hate the WFFC or want to bitch about it all day long. I do think some things can be fixed or changed to make it better and attract the crowds like it once did. I don't think anyone on here believes it is cheap to put this show on, but skydivers are usually broke and/or cheap and will always look for a way to get it cheaper. Sucks for the vendors since this is such a low profit margin industry. I've paid the reg fee a bunch of times and will end up paying it again. I just feel if jumpers are a bit more vocal about what they don't like, we could avoid a repeat of the last year at Quincy (re:it wasn't fun). _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  13. Maybe people that don't camp onsite can get a lower reg fee? Or people that don't stay as long? (yes, I realize that won't happen) I must say, when I heard what some of the vendors paid for tent space, it amazed me to find out they still needed a reg fee. Like Kev said, if you stay the entire time it comes out to about $10 day for camping. I don't have a problem with that. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  14. It's kinda funny for me. I live four blocks from Midway Airport and hear jets all the time...the noise never bothers me, in fact I love it. (gotta love walking out the front door in the morning and smelling JetA!). I find this jet noise and how much they make the building shake to be very enjoyable! Its intersting watching the whuffos here at work complain about it. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

  15. HA......damn did I see enough "Little Boys and girls" at the WFFC to last me the rest of the year. Kinda sad really. You noticed that as well? _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  16. Strong, smart women are very attractive. Women that play stupid, are destructive or needlessly indecisive or wrecklessly submissive to destructive men are not. At all. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  17. Is there really a point to letting this thread continue anymore other than to start more rumors? Let the facts come out, then talk about it. Anything else is just more useless "as the prop turns" and anything goes in that scenario. There are people that will let an incident like this fuel their biased hatred. Let them live in that little world of theirs, and hopefully they will stay away from us. Let this thread die. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  18. Anyone else getting buzzed by these guys today as they practice for the weekend? I'm about a mile west of the lake and they and part of their return trip is right above my work. Actually, four of the planes approach then two break off just as they get near here. I don't think I will be able to concentrate today. Ok...need to go back outside and watch them. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  19. Am I one of the few that didn't get sick? Also - look at Taffy become a PW! _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  20. I know someone that works for a "direct-marketing" company as well. They are responsible for pop-up and pop-under ads. I've had quite a few arguments with him over the last year, and he has the same attitude as the girl on the phone. Basically you are wasting your breath with this type. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  21. www.dailyherald.com/cook/main_story.asp?intID=382185 Why mayor is taking a flying leap By Amy McLaughlin Daily Herald Staff Writer Posted Thursday, August 19, 2004 This Saturday, Arlington Heights Village President Arlene J. Mulder will make her leap into politics seem sort of tame. Mulder, 59, will try skydiving in downstate Ottawa with members of the U.S. Army. "If former President Bush can do it for his 80th birthday, I suppose I can do it," Mulder said. "I feel very safe." She'll be one of several business leaders, politicians and celebrities participating in a series of jumps Saturday and Sunday at Skydive Chicago's facility in Ottawa. Bill Kelo, advertising and public affairs chief with the U.S. Army's Chicago recruiting battalion, said a team from the Army's Golden Knights will conduct the jumps. Other jumpers include Bill Rancic, Donald Trump's "Apprentice" from the reality show of the same name; NBC-TV reporter Phil Rogers and officials from several Chicago-area companies like Walgreen Co. and Leo Burnett. A member of the Golden Knights will be harnessed to each participant during the jump, Kelo said. Mulder said her jump will start at 13,000 feet and it will be a free fall until 4,000 feet when the chute will open. Another team of Golden Knights will participate in this weekend's Chicago Air and Water Show. Kelo said it is a fun way to "get the Army out in front of the public" and increase its exposure to local community and business leaders. Mulder said she has a special relationship with the military, particularly the U.S. Army. She's taken a ride in a KC 131, a U.S. Air Force refueling plane, and has visited various military recruitment centers. She's also active with the U.S. Army's reserve base in Arlington Heights. Mulder said officials have noticed a renewed interest in young people enlisting in the military out of high school. Because of that, Arlington Heights officials decided last year to honor two years of active duty in lieu of a two-year college degree for entry-level police officers. For Mulder, this will be her first try at skydiving. "I'm both excited and a bit nervous. I'm just hoping for a happy landing," she said. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....
  22. And he thought it was cool. I really thought he was going in since his main continued to snivel forever. I counted a total of 5 seconds from slider down to flare. _________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....
