    I doubt seriously he's the moniker you've assigned him. Were I you, and thank God I'm not, I would repent for that right quick like. Here's the deal about religion, I was born, and raised in it, I know millions of people weren't and that's cool. But making remarks like your's is very disrespectful to whom ever they were spoken about. God is real. He punishes people who mock him. Please don't be one of those people.

    Commandment No. 1: "Thou shalt have no other God's before me" "I, the Lord, your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sins of the fathers to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love Me, and keep My commandments." (Exodus. 20:5-6) Surely these people won't be ignorant of God's Commandments forever? People cried, and bore great remorse and agony when the Columbine shootings occurred years ago. They said "Why would God allow this kind of thing to happen in our school, to our children? God replied "You kicked me out of your school years ago, you did not want me there." So, be careful what you wish for. (My comment, not God's) Richard

    None of that. The worst mistake the jumper made was not having a cut-away system on his helmut. Then going under water?? What would have been the out come if no boat on the surface dragging him out?? Not very smart IMHO. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

    I don't think so BillVon. I can't think of a name I've haven't been called, and it really doesn't affect me anymore. Now on a jumpship the a-hole word is tradition. But that doesn't make it allright. I'm friends with a lot of different departments of law enforcement so that's not a problem either. Generally if a ST, PO or SO calls you that name, there's probably a good reason for it. They don't do that for no reason. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

    I'm actually confused as to why Slappie is being replied to, and yet his post is not present in his own thread. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

    Weird deal, that's for sure. Black comediens have been using the "N" word for years in stand-up comedy acts. Richard Pryor made millions of dollars using that word, yet Paula admits to "Having used racial slurs in the past" and it DOG PILE! There is not one among us here who has not used a racial slur in our past, maybe even our present. Only people who live in glass houses should be casting stones. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

    It started to do it to me about 4 days ago. Never had any problem before. Don't know what's going on. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

    Personally, I cant vote either way just now as I haven't heard the evidence. I refuse to try anyone via the media. The man is innocent, until Proven guilty. Right? -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

    There's one in every bar!! Generally those personality types belittle others in order to build a false sence of supererority. I call it the "Napoleon Syndrome" These people are also generally lonely and need more attention than us regular folks. I tend to listen, and retain nothing. And that's all I have to say about that.

    You wont make it to the velo if you continue to be so arrogant. Sad to say. Regardless, I wish you all the luck in the world. Best- Richard

    I used to have a really good friend just like you. His name was Shane Richertz. He's been dead for years. His canopy progression ended with a Sabre 135^2, he died one day when his canopy hit the ground before he did. He knew how to read as well. PS: His wing load was 1:4:1 -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

    Was he 100 ls. overweight? You know this for fact? Heck, I observed he was chubby, but never thought he was 100 lbs. over weight. Best- Richard

    Can you think of at least 2 or 3 more expletives you can add to your colorful commentary? Man, do you kiss your mom with that mouth? Maybe you should visit the webster's dictionary, and review the 10 commandments? Just sayin'. Best- Richard

    I'll never forget the pumpkin head jump. I thought you were nuts, but then we all were to some degree back then. Lots of fun, AOT Memorial Boogie(s), SCR jumps, Hugh's Casa, on & on Best- Richard

    That's jacked up bro. I didn't need to see all that.

    If the pilot is very, very busy and Jump Ship seems to be getting to the point of instability, I'm leaving the rest of you guys in the fusalage and bailing. How ever, if the pilot does have the time to issue or give orders, then I'll consult him, digest his order rather quickly, then make my decision. I've seen a couple of pilots get rattled quite easily. Best- Richard

    I agree with a lot of what your saying, a few things I don't, but they don't matter. My biggest problem with it would be if the IA for the canopy progression doesn't pass some one, or makes it too hard on them just because they're having a bad day, don't like the jumper, or just because they're having a bad day. I would go for some professional canopy pilots judging student canopy pilots though. How ever, I have to stand with at least 300 jumps on the first canopy before graduating up to any other higher performance based canopies. Best- Richard
