Congrats and happy birthday man. May you have many more wonderful years to come

Quite simply the media in the Chicagoland area has an itch to scratch when it comes to attempting to discredit Skydive Chicago. It is a wonderful and SAFE place to skydive. Especially to learn through their AFP program. I've never felt anything but safe in their capable hands (me=student). But, its up to you to make your own choices. Just please, don't judge it based on news reports. Stop by, hang out with people, get to know the place for yourself then decide. _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

Cable may very well be crap... but ive got over 1000 channels of crap!!! Hell.. i have channels that have no pictures they just play music... *shrugs* _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

165.. im a danger to society..

Lets see here... when i was 17 i had my ACL replaced, damaged cartilage removed, miniscus(cant remember if thats right) on both sides of my left knee were torn and jammed into my joint and had to be pulled out and repaired. And all of that damage came from an accident in a mosh pit ... 2 years later when I enlisted in the Army i damaged my knee again and had a second surgery. The messed up thing is that after 2 knee surgeries on my left knee it is in fact my right knee that bothers me after several years of compensating. In any event. Be prepared for the physical therapy to be like some sort of torture camp. _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

No shit... if the government tried to do a any kind of large scale cover up/conspiracy/ "well-planned plot"... well.. they'd most likely lose the paper work and forget what they were doing...Its sad the amount of faith you lose in your government after working for them. _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

Well hell. they dont call em drop punt dogs for nothing. And did anyone ask what the kickers social/emotional condition was at the time of the incident? No. They just want to crucify him for doing the world a favor by killing another Yip Yip Yip Yip dog. j/k

That was freakin BEAUTIFUL!!! Ah.. the joy of throwing Macs from the roof of a 3 story school... _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

Hrm. Have all 4 of mine. and all 4 are severly impacted. But aside from the once a year event of the muscles that they originally tore through regrowing and being torn through again... its all good (i hate dentists... evil evil evil people.) _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

First Ammendment violation? *looks around for the ACLU to jump in and fuck up any possibility of a successful lawsuit* And as for California... come on. You guys actually voted The Terminator into office. Of course, the really sad thing is that i'd take Arnold over Governor Blag... Blagohi. no.. Blahoivic... damn. The Governor of Illinois. _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

and these would apply to people with contracts which have expired? _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

I can't believe that.. G.Tech.. so close yet so freakin far. They played really well through most of the tourny and then dropped the ball in the championship game. Oh well.

You're a 92R AirborneDaddy? If you could give me any info on that it would be much appreciated. I've been considering going back in but doubt with my two knee surgeries i could get back into 37F, so i have been considering 92R. But, I hate talking to recruiters. They are worse that used car salesman. _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

thats horrible... ack... whats almost worse is trying to figure out what you were looking for when you found that.... _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

thats pretty funny. but i dont think a baseball bat to the head would count as talking. _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard

Shunned for being a Christian? In Florida? Doubt anyone should really feel that way... But.. I'm not a Christian so I can't really say. I know I wouldn't get on someone's case for being a Christian.

Yep. SDC has a very nice Tandem program. When I entered their AFP course I felt very well prepared since on both tandems I had taken I had: Called the exit count tracked alti pulled and even had full control of toggles all the way to landing (at which point the TM took over) Tandem #1 Log entry: Freefall Great exit & arch Great GAJ & PHTs Great Awareness/Responce to hand signals Canopy Nice Wave & Pull @ 5.5k Explained Canopy control! Awesome Skydive & Landing Afterwards I spent a good amount of time on the ground discussing the tandems with the instructors, learning what I would be doing if I came back for AFP, etc. Over all I would have to say it may take extra time/money to give extended ground school time/training and post jump discussions, but in the end I believe it is worth it. Not only for jumper retention/return rate. But for a much safer skydiving community with more informed/trained students. Just my opinion as a student. _________________________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid." - Kierkegaard
