  1. My good news is that I had my first skydiving dream last night. I wasn't falling, I wasn't under a canopy, I was packing Eh, whatever, I'll take it. With the weather around here, dreams are about all I have at this time. BTW, what I think prompted it was talking two people at work into making a tandem dive. One of them for her 50th birthday, and another for a present for her husband. I'm like some parachuting lobbyist or something.
  2. I think the person could possibly survive that. If you look, most of the stuff coming out of him looks serous rather than sanguinous. Some fatty tissue as well. Unless there is some serious internal injuries I can't see in a photograph, I think the odds of survival are non-zero.
  3. He's just a poor boy, from a poor family
  4. (start rico suave voice) Hi. Nice day, huh? (end rico suava voice)
  5. Scaramouche, scaramouche, will you do the fandango?
  6. If I ever get the chance to meet "Mother Nature", I'm going to get her drunk and give her a Dirty Sanchez.
  7. I know hwere my beer is... In mah BELLY!!! I'm so happy right now I could hug everyone. Yes, I'm "intoxicated" I love you guys. I love you gals more.
  8. I feel your pain, bro. I was really looking forward to getting up there this weekend to finally get my sorry ass back in the air again. I hope this craptastic weather doesn't last too long.
  9. Gah! Keep your hotplug away from my socket, you pervert! What a strange and wonderful place the future is.
  10. I have a grand total of six jumps. Due to some personal problems which I have now sorted out (more or less), I haven't jumped in over a year. I bought a Z-1 after my first jump, but only because I knew I would love the sport and can't handle wind in my face. I just bought an altimeter and am eagerly awaiting arrival. I have no idea what discipline I will pursue, although wing suits seems uber-cool. The only photography I do is astrophotography. Finally, I have this weekend off and was planning on getting out in the air again, but the weather isn't cooperating. I don't have big numbers of jumps, hell, I don't even have my A yet, but I know this is something that will be a great source of enjoyment in my life. Sorry to ramble, but I just wanted to give my newbie perspective.
  11. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. Greatest book ever written.
  12. Easy definition for me: Soul mate = Jill Vincent Bad part is I live in Pittsburgh and she lives in New Jersey
  13. The best beer site in the known universe. BA.com and DZ.com are my two fave sites, they're like Reese Cups, two great tastes that taste great together.
  14. Note to self: buy about a dozen extra hook knives for the DZ Troy is the reason I've always wanted to skydive.
  15. 50,000 battered women, and I've been eating mine plain Where's the tempura batter? Edit to add: this reminds me of that joke. I like my women like I like my coffee... Ground up and in the freezer
  16. My goal is to simply get back in the air again. For a variety of reasons, I haven't jumped in over a year. That must change this summer. I'd like to say that I'll work on my A rating, but right now, I'd just be happy to feel the nerves again as I stand in the door looking down. I just bought an altimeter from sq.1, now I need to give it a workout. I made it to safety day, the one weekend I had off my Gramma passed away and now the weather is consistently nice so I'm really jonesing for a jump.
  17. That has to be the most evil post ever. I'm skeered!
  18. 1) Registered Nurse 2) Drugs can play a part in anyone's life, I personally don't know any skydivers who partake of anything harder than a cold beer.
  19. Isn't there an animal that shoots blood out of it's eyes and a beetle that squirts boiling liquid out it's arse? Nature is beautiful, but sometimes it can be fairly bizarre.
  20. No, I think Heisenberg said that you could know the exact position of the boobies, but not how they are jiggling.
  21. So I just got my SIM, I've been reading through it, but have a question. Is there any such thing as a computer program-test for this? I have a few math and nursing programs that quiz you at the end with some multiple choice question, is there anything like that for the SIM? Thanks.

  23. Two eyes looking forward giving us binocular vision, canine teeth. Tell you friend that sorry, although vegetables are your best friend, humans are fucking predators. Now pass the steak sauce
  24. I want my next s/o to be a serious g/f, because looking for marriage right away is creepy and obsessive, but being alone sure sucks.
