  1. Is that what they call feng shui? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  2. You had me right up to this point. Sorry. "I can't stand people, but I love gatherings." Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  3. So, no freeflying, huh? Did the Byron Boogie in '00. Great time. There was beer, if I remember correctly. And a lot of it, at that. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  4. Floyd Bennett Field, at the very end of Flatbush. Next stop: Rockaway. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  5. Just saw your profile pic and it reminded me: I miss Baywatch. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  6. Use to fly out of Brooklyn. A favorite flight was past the VZ Bridge and the Statue of Liberty, and then up the Hudson River past the towers. They were always impressive giants on the southern part of Manhattan. Even at night when crossing way north over Central Park, they stood out as beacons. Always wondered if I could fly between them, but figured the FAA would get involved if I did. Once had an $8 beer in Windows on the World. What a view. I will miss them. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  7. ENFJ - The Teacher, baby; so start paying attention you guys! Afterall, I did answer 72 questions to get that designation. How could it possibly be wrong? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

    Nice touch

    The Yahoo opening page is black, white, and grey in tribute. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  9. I bought my first PC back in 1977 from Lee Borden when he decided to switch to a Paradactyl. If anyone ever runs across a PC with an embroidered name tape on it that says "Blue Max", that's the one. I was jumping with a bunch of guys from the 10th Special Forces Group at the time and they all did the rear riser landing technique. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  10. They say that by allowing the Dream Team to play in international competition, the level of basketball throughout the world was elevated. And this year, the USA lost. Soundly. Maybe the GK's just by their presence, did the same thing for formation skydiving. If you've seen either team lately, the answer to that would be a resounding, "No!". It's the lycra, isn't it? "These things are so tight, you can tell my religion." - Robin Williams Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  11. And that would be because... Love my Tony suit. Get cordura on butt and everywhere below knees. Get Comp grips. Also, did not realize it for about a year, but there is suppose to be a pocket on the arm. Apparently when they built my suit, they sewed the arms on the wrong side. My pocket is now behind my upper arm gripper and totally useless to me. But the guy behind me likes it. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  12. Ditto. Jumped both at 1.6:1, with the Stiletto first. After mastering(kinda) those landings, the Vengeance was a piece of cake. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  13. Here's a quick and easy one. Wrap a salmon fillet, asparagus spears, quartered artichokes, capers, in puff pastry and bake it. Voila, Salmon Wellington. Specifics on request. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  14. You know you're a "mature" skydiver when you remember when "PC" meant Paracommander. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

    Your age?

    Some of us long for both of those. Me? I'm 18.02609e. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  16. Ralphie, Welcome! And for the record, no one has ever associated the words "Grown Up" with either John Wright or you. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  17. Sick joke alert: Question: What's brown and hides in the attic? Answer: The Diarrhea of Anne Frank. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  18. Would like to become a YUPPIE skydiver and meet many of the qualifications (really hot '98 Honda Civic Viper), but I am closer to being a SITCOM than a YUPPIE. SITCOM = Single Income, Two Children, Outrageous Mortgage. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  19. Today scientists announced they haved discovered a food product which effectively reduces a woman's sex drive by 85%. They call it Wedding Cake. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

    If you...

    I have no idea what'll happen; let's try it. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

    Find the apricot!

    Or the first "Great Places I had sex thread?" Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  22. When I told my father I wanted to go to school in California, he explained the sloped earth theory to me. By its premise, the entire earth is sloped and everything that's a little bit loose slides into California. Since then, I have lived in California twice and was always amazed when parents were excited by their children getting accepted to Berkeley. What's the matter, couldn't get into Stanford? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  23. Didn't the mullet haircut start with Canadian hockey players, ay? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

    I hate to shop

    Be nice, Hoho. Remember, it's national Penis Day. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
  25. Almost makes it sound like fun. "Come on everyone, we're going on an excursion. Get your surf boards and sun tan lotion." Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
