I think I've found the bastard love child of BillVon and LouDiamond or SkyMonkey1 http://www.whatistheorangebox.com/trailers/tf2_05.htm -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

How do you do it? -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Cessna Caravan crashed in the Cascades-Skydivers on board

Talked to someone who had been in the ac Friday while it was till in ferry config. It was fitted with a standard cargo door. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it." -

I'm thinking the same thing, and a nose-dive would be consistent with the behavior of the Caravan that got its tail taken off by a premie a couple of years ago in Austriala. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it." -
Only a woman would say that. You're such a misandrist! -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

You do realize that we maintain a global net of sattelites specifically designed to identify and track ballistic missile launches? -Blind Yes. Seeing and destroying are two different things. Never said it was. I was addressing the detection capability the poster seems to have missed. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."
-
I don't think it'd blind them. I'd expect it to outright destroy them. Both the level of emp and its area of effect are supposed to be pretty nasty for (sub)orbital detonations. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Not trying to be conforntational Matt, but that statement is flat out wrong. I beleive that there's at least three of us on this board that have lost a wing despite it being rigged correctly. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Damn, He was a good guy. When you first get your rigging ticket, it can be hard to get business because you're unproven. Bill was kind enough to forgoe a pack job from a very low D number rigger to give me a shot. He was also kind enough to drag me on my first 8 way attempt even though everyone else had a ton more jumps than me. He'll be missed. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Probably not all that well. Everybody gets hardons about the high-tech nature of the german WWII tech but the truth was that the vast majority of it was experimental stuff that was rushed into production without sufficient testing resulting in mechanical casualties being more common than casualties from enemy fire. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Sorry, I mistyped my original post, doing several hours of grad-level quant work has mushed my brain. It's all DDR2, it's just the board is rated for 667 and I bought 800. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."
-
I'm building a system and didn't pay close enough attention to a spec sheet. I've got a mobo rated for DDR2/667, but I bought DD2/800 RAM. Is it compatible or am I going to need to exchange it?

So that was a trailer hitch I saw between her legs in the infamous limo shot! -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Meh, I've done both. I think arguing about which is better makes about as much sense as arguing over which one of your balls is bigger. Who cares, they're both yours. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

***Its not a big deal to get rid of the line twist on a big'O student/square canopy. It's more a function of planform and WL than raw size.

It didn't feel particuarly fast to me, but multiple people on the ground said I was overtaking the C-182 I exited from, before I turned away. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

I am 350 lbs out the door with my Prodigy which gives me a W/L of 1:"Really Fuckin Insane" and I can get my vertical down to the mid-90's if I go for slow fall. Going for horizontal speed I get a fall rate of around 130 mph. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Twin Otter production restarted!
BlindBrick replied to sundevil777's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
If there's only that many in the US then I'm pretty sure that the Desert Sands otters are used to fly tourist to Monument Valley Utah. I ws there for school business a few years ago and saw three of them parked on the dirt strip out there, and was sick at the waste of capacity. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it." -
QuoteWe can't help everyone and there has got to be a natural balance. Quote Then you really have no argument. Fair play is a human concept, the natural order is to take from those with less power than you. As a dead person, you have no power and thus its only natural that we take what we want from you. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

No, it's the next generation F-15/F-16 combo with the 22 taking over the air-sup role of the 15. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Paris Hiltons Grand Father takes away her inheritence
BlindBrick replied to bigway's topic in The Bonfire
She's making a million plus to show up at a single party, so I don't think losing 60 mill is going to be that painful. Her family is undoubtedly aware of this, and this manuver gives her family some offical distance from her antics. ie. It's all about PR. -Blind "If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."
