  1. A cost of living increase is very different than a doubling of fees due to gas prices that have no effect on the packer at all. I agree tandems should (and do) pay more. Any new ZP should pay more too since it takes longer. I'm so glad most new canopy owners appreciate what we do and tip very well. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  2. Nicely done! Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  3. That's just freaking scary. We do have one guy who has the BOC open on both ends so that it can be packed either way depending on which arm is bothering him more that day. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  4. I didn't say it did. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  5. Are there any other women on here who feel like crap every time these threads come up because they are no where near hot and much more on the homely side? Just curious. Though at least from her picture VSG really does look beautiful. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  6. How about a left side BOC? There are a couple of people I pack for that went that route due to arm/shoulder issues. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  7. Not that I wouldn't love to get paid more, but I disagree with your logic. Whether gas is $50/gallon or free and whether I'm packing a $10000 rig or a $800 one, my overhead costs as a rigger/packer are no different, so why would the cost of a pack job increase exponentially with no increase in overhead costs?

  8. Mmmm, I just came back from going out to dinner and ordered lamb. YUM!!! If you really like meat in your mouth, have Rocky Mtn Oysters Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  9. Perfectly said Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  10. If you need the cash, go ahead and sell it, it won't hurt you. But it also won't hurt to store it properly and hang on to it while you make a couple hundred jumps on the sabre 150 and then see how you feel from there. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  11. Check out www.allrecipes.com I've gotten a lot of really good (and easy) recipes off of there. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  12. Selena, thanks for posting those! The girl wrestler roster now has Sue Stambaugh added. I'll talk with more later this week. Kevin, get in touch with Kyle and Chad, they both agreed to help with the logistics and rules of the pudding wrestling!! Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  13. I nominate Kyle and Chad to help you. I'll talk with both tonight, but consider them in. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  14. List of ladies... Laura Rachel Me I haven't talked with anyone else yet. I'll take care of getting wrestlers. Kevin, this was your idea, you get to come up with the rules and be the ref. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  15. Chad and I debated as to whether or not Abbey would wrestle. He said that she wouldn't since she won't even pelt a protec. I'm going to the gym right now Laura... watch out Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  16. You can visit Walt over in the Women's Forum, he's been seen hanging around there
  17. I think I'm going to go do some pushups now...... I don't do public nudity either, and don't have a bathing suit, but I'll do a tank top or something. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  18. I'll be seeing you in Chambersburg in a couple weeks. Though does the course start Sat am or Friday afternoon? Your calendar says Sat, manifest told me Friday. Thanks! Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  19. LOL!!!!! If you'd quit blowing me off all the time, you might get to jump with me more often Laura and Hamilton, thanks for the congrats. Yes, I did have fun last night. Hamilton, you'll just have to come up to Chambersburg for the Pelt Head Boogie so you can meet all of the Chambersburgers. You'd have a great time. And I'd even let you enter the Cabana boy contest!!
  20. This is the most important part of what you wrote. Learn from it, but also talk with the other jumper. Find out why they lost altitude awareness too. How many jumps do they have? Are they taking the situation seriously as well? Take canopy collisions very very seriously. I saw one recently... it's absolutely astounding just how fast things got ugly. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  21. YIpppppeeee, you can't read a calendar so might hit our boogie!! So does this mean you'll wrestle too? That makes at least three of us. Kevin, are you reading this?? Better get that tarp, kiddie pool and jello or pudding (jello would probably be better, I think) Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  22. Selena, I'm sorta glad you're not in... Chad and I were discussing this last night, and you are the only girl at the DZ that I'm fairly certain could kick my ass Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  23. Awwww, yer the best Kyle. And yes, we got some action last night Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
