  1. We've had to do that more than once and it is always tough. So sorry--I can see why you loved the little girl. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  2. Never jumped a Sabre, but I have about 450 jumps on Spectres. I'm not sure why you have limited yourself to these two canopies, but I think there are a lot better choices out there than the Spectre. I like my Storm better, and I like my Pilot much better! Pilots open comfortably without that long, long snivel of the Spectre, and the landings are MUCH better. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so."

  3. A man who will cheat on the one person he promised not to will throw his best friend under the bus in a heartbeat to save his own ass. Never trusted them. This is not personally directed at anyone, just a general observation. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so."

  4. Hey, I learned math in plumbing school, where the first course was, "How to Write a Bill." They figured if you couldn't write a bill you couldn't be a plumber. Anyhow, I double checked, and overtime is $6.50/ hr, except for bathroom breaks. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so."

  5. I'm a plumber and it seems that every time I do a plumbing job in my own house something goes haywire, especially when my wife gets involved. Her: That looks crooked. Me, with level: No it's not, see? Her: Well, your level is obviously not working. Me: You think my level is broken? Her: Maybe you're not holding it right. Yada,yada. Then I do it over and it leaks. The things we do for love. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  6. I get $6/hr, and overtime is time and a half, $7/ hr.And that's every hour, except for bathroom breaks, although I usually piss into my wheel well. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  7. Cleaned a drain, replaced a disposer, replaced a switch on a sump pump, replaced a water heater and checked out an ignitor on another one. Should have been an air traffic controller!

  8. Keep the photo, buy a new house. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  9. My wife, who is not the least bit interested in jumping, commented that they looked like synchronized swimmers...not that there's anything wrong with that.

  10. CASA!!! "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  11. Beautiful. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  12. Since you have less than 200 jumps I can't read your posts. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  13. Since you don't have 200 jumps yet, I refuse to look at your video. Was that a Cesna 185? "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  14. Terrific! What a memory for the boy! "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  15. Guaifenesin is all natural and it is terrific. Take it with LOTS of HOT water. Water as hot as you'd drink for coffee of tea. Don't eat or drink anything cold. Second the nasal rinse, too. Hope you're feeling better soon. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  16. Changes the angle of attack. Works with Spectres and Pilots, too. Rears work too, but are more tiring. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  17. One of the Colt'c corners, Jarard Powers, wears them. He says he wants to wear them in a game, but that hasn't happened yet. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  18. Not Quincy, but Rantoul. She was indeed insanely jealous, and, interestingly, half that size and somewhat hot. I was getting on my rig once and she stripped down to her thong to get her jumpsuit on. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  19. "Of Honor and Dishonor" by David Crocco "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  20. I'll say what I wanted to say at the DZ...you rock! "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  21. DO NOT USE GOO-GONE! That is highly toxic. Use mayonaise. Works great. Goo-gone? What was he thinking! "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  22. Didn't realize that I was being unfriendly. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy

  24. Another version, circa 1969: The prettiest girl I ever saw Was sippin bourbon through a straw And now and then that straw would slip And she'd get bourbon on her lip. I picked her up, I laid her down Her golden hair lay all around. And now I have a mother-in-law And thirteen kids who call me paw. The moral of this little joke: Instead of bourbon drink a coke! I want to be an airborne ranger Livin the life of guts and danger... etc. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  25. I'm hoping the Pilot is the best for both soft openings and easy landings because I just ordered one! Pass on the Spectre IMHO due to relatively poor flare. Front risers suck as well. Just my 2 cents. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
