  1. I have a den. Just a 10'x12' room in the corner of the basement lower level. It is 100% my space and it does have a lock on the door. I'm sure my need for my own space came from being one of five children. "MOMMMMMM ! Billy is touching my stuff again !"

    The subject was sex. The teacher was naturally afraid. Little johnny was in her class. She started by asking the students what they knew about sex. Little Suzi said, "My cat had 8 kittens and that's what I know about sex." Little Billy said, My dog had 4 puppies and that's what I know about sex." And so it went throughout the room. Finally the teacher had no choice but to let Little Johnny have a turn. "OK Johnny, what do you know about sex?" Johnny answered, "Lone Ranger is surrounded by 400 Indians. He only has 4 bullets left. He takes careful aim to the north and with one bullet down go 100 Indians. One shot to the east and down go 100 more Indians. Same for the west and south and all the Indians are dead. And that's what I know about sex." And with that Johnny sits down. The teacher was perplexed and asked, "That was a very nice story Johnny, but what does that have to do with sex?" Johnny answered. "It just goes to show that you don't fuck with the Lone Ranger!"

  3. For those who are uncomfortable with the name "Psycho Pack", it also goes by the "Happy Smurf Pack". (And for the record, I'm not trying to hijack the thread either. Just offering a point of information.) Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

  5. My office overlooks one runway at the airport in Milwaukee. AirTran flies newer 717's whereas other carriers are still using the MD80-90's. I'm going to Vegas on AirTran in April. I hear that they pack the bodies inside so legroom might be a bit hard to come by. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  6. Get those deer whistles that you mount on the bumper. But whatever you do, read the directions !! When I got my first set, I installed them backwards. I hit 4 deer the first week !! Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  7. Saw this hand-written sign at the Quickie Mart NO CHECKS !! NO ACCEPTIONS !! Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  8. "... As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!" One of the funniest moments in all of television. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  9. Or put another way, "Parachutist" only covers skydiving whereas "Skydiving" covers all parachutists. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  10. Billy Mays is back at it. This time he is hawking a product called "Might Mendit" which is some kind of fabric glue. In the commercial https://www.mightymendit.com he mends a parachute and then shows it being jumped. Anybody have details on this particular jump? I am especially curious why the deployment shows a freebag. I didn't take the time to Zapruder the clip but it looks like the jumper lands the canopy (without a pilot chute) with normal gear. Have any ideas? Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  11. True Not exactly true. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  12. Sky Knights in East Troy, Wisconsin does student jumps throughout the winter. There is a minimum temperature for students, but I forget what it is right now. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  13. My first rig had a Cruiselite main and a Swift reserve. One nasty opening broke the center A-B lines just below the cascades. In my (erroneous) analysis of the situation, I decided that the canopy with the broken lines would be a better choice than the square, 5-cell, deployment brake line trailing, ancient, reserve. WRONG. The resulting landing collapsed the canopy when I flared causing a compression fracture of the L4. I didn't find that out until years later, but that is another story. Peace, -Jeff.

  14. ParaGear is in Skokie. I'm not a FIB so I don't know how far that is from you, but it is probably closer than Square One (or Two or Three). Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  15. Please define "landing solo". Thanks. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  16. Yes. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  17. The spot is only important if you care where you land. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  18. I gotta think that just as soon as somebody figured out that jumping out of an airplane was fun, somebody else figured out that it could be even more fun if you did it without a jumpsuit. I would bet that the absolute first one went undocumented. Anybody have anything on early nekked jumps? Maybe a mention in a book or something? Thanks. Peace, -Jeff.

  19. Every waiver I've ever received from the FAA included the following provision: "The holder of this Certificate of Authorization must position at least one person on the ground in the landing area to perform ground control duties. Ground control must have and utilize a means of constant communication with the jump aircraft. Direct two-way radio shall be the primary means of communication. In the event two-way radio communication is lost, a visual means of communication must be available that is capable of being identified and understood by the jumpers from the jump aircraft, and that will clearly indicate to jump or not to jump." Maybe their FSDO has different waivers than mine does. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

  21. Where are you seeing cents signs? I can't remember the last time I saw one in print anywhere. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
  22. A flashlight. Kids LOVE flashlights. Any age kids. Get a rugged one with a easy to operate switch and it will be the boy's favorite gift. Guaranteed. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

    Diaries

    HER DIARY: Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a bar to have a drink. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset because I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much. I asked him what was wrong he said 'Nothing.' I asked him if it was my fault he was upset. He said he wasn't upset, it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it. On the way home, I told him I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior. I don't know why he didn't say, 'I love you, too.' When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent. Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. To my surprise, he responded to my caress, and we made love. But I still felt he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else. He fell asleep - I cried. I don't know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster. HIS DIARY: Too cloudy to jump today, but at least I got laid. Peace, -Jeff. (Yeah, I know. A repost, kind of.)

  24. Bravo !! Most excellent advice! Even if a person has no intention to jump naked, that is excellent advice. Peace, -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
