  1. We're meant for each other, baby!! Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  2. I would welcome forum functionality where the thread initiator could do this. Agreed. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  3. The 50% of the players are having the exact same debate in the exact same way. I think you proved both our points in one sentence. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  4. Given that 20% of your 395 posts are in Speaker's Corner; is there a reason you haven't brought alternative subjects for discussion. You obviously know how to start a new thread. And as long as we're throwing percentages out there... in about 80% of posts, there's greater than 50% of the same players debating the same things in different ways. Jump in. It only hurts for a little while. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  5. Because reasonable people (including reasonable judges) can disagree over interpretation of core terms as applied to particular facts. Sounds unreasonable that any person or judge could disagree over erring to the side of reasonable.
  6. No. 1/4-1/2 inch depending on punch down and up. You know. This is a good reason for those never having a cutaway to punch out in front of their riggers. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  7. You make us proud for having severed our relationship over 200 years ago. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  8. The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. - 4th Amendment It's only 54 words long and really not that complicated. Why are there those who continue to make it so? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

  12. How the hell did you wind up in Chicago???? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  13. I do know my S/O Doc cannot fully pull out the cables without using the strip method. 5'2" Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

  15. Yo, Yo ma brother... My favoritist hunting rifle sound comes from that of the British Enfield No.5 Mk1 jungle carbine chambered in .308.... All me buddies had other types of rifles and when I shot mine, they later said, they had a "What the fuck was that" moment? See pic.

  16. We don't know how she was taught; I'd argue that doing whatever method you've been taught and have practiced is more important than doing one method or the other (and there are plenty of other threads to argue the relative merits of one vs. the other). At only 130 jumps, she's likely using whatever technique she learned as a student. I agree with the rest of your list, but I'd argue this one wasn't a safety concern at all. Morning, John, Krisanne, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt regarding EP's in that she stuck with the method taught. When teaching FJC, I do ask how many folks are southpaws... If they are, they learn the two-hand to one handle method. Primarily because they "may" resort to left-handed instinct during their first rush of cutaway adrenaline. This may have been the case with her - being a leftie. My other observation would be that it looked like she did the old proper strip method without the, "throw it away." Peel, Punch, Strip, Throw it away; Peel, Punch, Strip, Throw it away. Keith Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

  18. Crying? There's no crying in skydiving! Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  19. I did. Which appears to only validate my point more. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  20. I think that he's not offering full-time employment. At best, he's offering an opportunity when he gets one. How much off time do those 500 people have in-between jobs? How does he have the ability to keep those 500 people busy on a regular basis? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  21. Bring her here this weekend... http://www.tulsaarmsshow.com/frames.html You coming up? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  22. Yuuuuuuuuup!!! Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  23. The scariest part his day is riding the bicycle to the DZ argument. OK, but the kid can't even ride a bicycle yet. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  24. No worries about separation there, huh? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
  25. Perhaps, but we both know there is no means test for anyone of any age and their reaction to the first time out of a plane. Instead of addressing Aaron, which is not going to change his mind... I'll just say that I really think this is in bad form on many fronts. I can't speak for New Zealand's child protection laws, but if they're even close to here... if the kid even breaks a finger and goes to the ER and someone says, "So, Little One, how did you hurt your finger?" and the kid says, "My daddy took me on a skydive." Well, it's just not worth the risk in my book. My little one is coming up on five and is quite the daredevil. There's just no way Daddy is going to let her jump until she reaches the age of majority. I do not think any parent has the right to place their minor child in a potentially life-threatening situation. Our job is to protect our kids. We say, "You can do everything right and still have a wrong outcome" until we start discussing young'uns jumping out of planes and then we act as if nothing could happen.
