  1. This is easy.. Just tell your mom that you had an abortion a few years back and now you're just trying to make it right. Or since most right-wingers are pro-life but tend to not be as vocal about the need for people to consider adoption, just tell her you're following in her footsteps of helping people to ignore the children waiting to be adopted. Or you could just explain to your mom that it is in fact a loving gesture to do something like this for people who desperately want a child. Does that help? -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  2. Or if you fart in freefall... It's raining turd particles!! Ewww!!! You're nasty! "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  3. If he is in good physical shape some DZ's still might let him jump. It's the 5'2" ladies who are 250 that you reeeaally want to avoid. Kind of a rule of thumb is, if it's a shorter distance to walk around someone than to go over top, maybe they can jump.

  4. It's my job to give shit. Come to my Easter Egg hunt on Sunday at 10 am!! Free jumps and other free stuff!!! "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  5. I don't think my boyfriend would approve of the use of cold water during play time. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  6. Dangling balls look weird. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  7. That will get you out of it? What if I just think they should legalize pot, I think that the government is corrupt, I would rather live in Canada and I'm a communist at heart? Think I could get out of jury duty? "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  8. Then you need to loosen it back up when you pack it. I know it's a pain... but I promise you that I'm not sneakily shortening your closing loop to be mean. It's cause I wub you. -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  9. Man, I'm sorry. I got called for Jury duty too and had them push it back. Now they're trying to make me serve a week in June and a week in July. Don't they know thats skydiving season?? -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  10. 3 minutes? How many steps do you skip? "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham

    Quit procrastinating about talking to your advisor and take some Spanish in community college. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  12. I just want to point out that I think this is a good thing. The packer probably had a much cleaner pack job than you, so it was less bulky and the closing loop was too long. It is a good thing that he shortened the loop to suit his pack job. Yeah it is a pain when you have to change it back for your own pack job.. but having a closing loop that is too loose is just as dangerous as having one that is getting to worn out. I've seen people on here in the past complain about packers doing this, I think people should be thanking their packers for taking extra time to keep them safe.

  13. Well Mr.Picky... If you go by the 2-page A license check card it does in fact say change or adjust. However if you use the 4-page card the requirement is to replace a closing loop. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  14. You've obviously never met his wife. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  15. The requirement is to change a closing loop. Since many DZ's just give you one that is pre-made.. not really a big deal if you don't know how to make one yourself. I usually show people how to make them when I check that requirement off of their card. I think that DZ's should liberally give out closing loops for FREE. At one DZ I used to jump at they charged a dollar for a new loop. That caused people to procrastinate about changing it.. I mean c'mon, a dollar? It isn't worth that much. So fuck that shit, I starting making closing loops and handing them out for free behind the bosses back! -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  16. Yeah, what was I thinking. Don't even fingertrap it. Just make a loop and tie it off with a knot! "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  17. If you just need something to keep the rig securely closed while you're flying.. maybe you could cut up some old shoelaces and finger trap it. Then replace it when you get to where you're going. I don't know if that was the sort of answer you were looking for... Never been in a type 2a bind before.

  21. If you live in the Northwest, mark your calendar for June 30-July 2! Chris Salcone and Pete Gali of team Guano will be coming to Skydive Snohomish for a weekend of freefly coaching and organizing. This event is being sponsored by the Seattle Skydivers Club.
  22. Hello everyone, Just writing to announce to my North-West Buddies that this upcoming Sunday, the 16th will be Skydive Snohomish's 2nd Annual Easter Egg Hunt! We've got great prizes this year: free jumps, free t-shirts, skydiving books, free pack-jobs and candy! The hunt will start at 10:00 am! -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  23. She's psycho.. she'll loving having her picture taken. It shows that she has in fact suceeded in dominating him. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  24. How would a picture help us judge if she's psycho or not? Well.. I guess if you were wearing a dog collar and she had you on a leash that might be a clue.. Seriously, your story contained many red flags that indicate that this girl should be avoided. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
  25. I would bet lots of money (if I had lots of money) that she is psycho. Hopefully she doesn't know where you live. "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham
