    Congrats Sunny

    I think Sunny should say
  3. Yo. That location is in Florida. Iarea 51 aint in Florida __ My mighty steed
  4. I support the petition Chris Leahy C-35323 __ My mighty steed
  5. Thats how they get stuff. You don't think they actually innovated anything do you? __ My mighty steed
  6. Why is that? Is there some rule that says Doctors have to be humorless automatons? Additionally, people frequently get giggles in serious situations. Funerals. Hospitals. Its normal and is a reaction to stress and is NO reflection on someones level of maturity. As the poster before me said, lighten up __ My mighty steed
  7. Nice.. Mine... __ My mighty steed
  8. http://orthopedics.about.com/cs/kneeinjuries/a/mclinjury.htm If it was me, I'd probably give it a couple months, strap on a knee brace, and keep jumping. But thats just me and I'm not a doctor and that was NOT advice. __ My mighty steed
  9. Go back and check the archives and see that even a low life nobody like myself was saying these things here before Bill or Brian. But I'm not about to claim credit for nothing. The difference is that a respected canopy pilot, parachute designer and canopy control instructor has decided to add his two cents to the topic. I think his point was that you supported it when Brian Germain said it, but treated Billvon like a villain for suggesting the same basic thing. __ My mighty steed
  10. Quit smoking Feb 2001. No cravings anymore. Smoked 2 packs of Marb reds a day for almost 25 years. It does go away eventually. Takes a while but it goes away. __ My mighty steed
  11. Me either. But my home is the one place on earth that I can be assured I will not be subjected to smoking and drinking. The rest of the world is out of my control and out there, if someone says "Mind if I smoke?" I say "Knock yourself out" Keeping your home a haven is not judging others. Its being good to yourself. Why would you want your house or car to smell like cigarettes if you made a conscious choice to leave smoking behind??? Thats nuts man
  12. As an alcoholic thats been sober 12 years and doesn't tell ANYONE how they should live, (or what they should be smoking or drinking) and I'm here to tell you that your position is overly judgmental and ill informed, and that you appear to be prejudiced against entire groups based on a few annoying experiences. Is this your SOP? I hope not for your sake. As an recovering alcoholic, I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that I have FAR more direct experience with recovering alcoholics than you do, and I can tell you for a fact that we (as a general rule) intentionally avoid telling other people what we may think of their habits. I'm sure you are a great guy. I hope that you find a way to become less judgmental (and more educated on the subjects that you preach about) though, cuz your comments don't exactly put you in a favorable light. I'll take an alcoholic over a bigot any day of the week __ My mighty steed
  13. You are a human Asshat? __ My mighty steed
  14. So what are you waiting for? Get out there and chuck some rocks at it
  15. I think that these thoughts probably occur to everyone in this sport from time to time. Even more experienced folks. They usually show up in my thoughts when I go through periods of less jumping. The more I jump, the less I have these thoughts. My best answer is jump more __ My mighty steed
  16. The following opinion is rather coarsely stated, but nonetheless accurately represents my opinion... I think people are working WAY too hard to try and show that skydivers are somehow different from everyone else. We aren't. Who the fuck really cares? Nobody. What fuckin difference does it make? None. They need to just shut up, jump, be happy, and then shut up some more for good measure. __ My mighty steed
  17. "Made it pretty clear"? If she hasn't made it 100%, unmistakably clear that he has no chance for romance, that means she is keeping the option open Bub. If she wants to stay "friends" with a guy that clearly wants a lot more, and is even advertising publicly that she is his girlfriend, when she doesn't want anything of the kind, then I gotta ask what the fuck she is playing at __ My mighty steed
  18. A hook knife is better (in my opinion) because there is no danger of cutting yourself with one. In an emergency in which you might be spinning and flailing around at high speed, a straight blade could be a problem in a couple ways. For one, it would be very easy to badly cut yourself in this kind of situation. It could also be dropped more easily. Most hook knives have handle designs that make dropping them less likely and blade designs that make cutting yourself impossible. __ My mighty steed
  19. They can just load the plane with enough cargo to simulate a full load of jumpers and achieve the same goal. Why bring real skydivers into pilot practice? __ My mighty steed
  20. Out of those 25, maybe 3 will actually go through with it __ My mighty steed
  21. In a country where guts and organs are eaten routinely they probably don't allow something good like banana bread
  22. I'm a paranoid type. I wont do business overseas, or even with someone in the US unless I know I can physically go to where they are if need be. __ My mighty steed
