So, my boss, Ed (who's from a little town in Texas of about three and a half rednecks and one old lady) and I are driving down the highway in Houston and got into a theological discussion. And, when I told him I didn't believe in the construct of "Hell," I thought his head was going to explode. He tells me in a very animated way, waving his finger at me, driving across a couple of lanes of traffic, "Well Brother, you better believe in Hell; cause this time, I'm telling you... YOUUUUU'RE WROOOOOONG!!!' When Ed tells you, "You're wrong!!!" It's best just to not pursue the conversation any further. After driving in silence for a few more minutes on the same major Houston Highway filled with traffic doing 90 MPH; Ed asks me, "Do you want to go to Heaven?" And, I said, "No." I thought his head was going to explode. Ed hollered, "'I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!!!!" Finger flying at me, swerving all over the road in disbelief... You mean to tell me that when YOU DIE, you don't want to go to Heaven?!?!?!?!" I said, "Oh, when I die, yes. I thought maybe you were getting a group together here on the highway to go right now." I thought his head was going to explode. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

You must have had better luck with the white membrane over the speaker and mic... The first couple of days everyone complained about it sounding like I had marbles in my mouth and I kept asking them to speak up (top volume on the side)... I broke out an exacto blade and cut the both of them out... They can hear me, I can hear them... but, water would definitely be an issue. But, I seem to spend more time drop testing my cell phones. They oughta pay for the testing I give 'em. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Oh Yeah. I am an ardent believer of the Otter Box and have converted more than one person to its glory. They can make a seemingly delicate device damn near Milspec. I'd take a picture of mine, but I can't flip the camera around fast enough. Got the black and yellow box so's I can find it. I do have one issue with the iPhone defender as compared with my previous BB Otterbox is that the bottom portion of the shell cradle isn't as high as the BB one and the iPhone can launch at the slightest brush against the top of the iPhone. It seems to be designed for a slight push from the top to pop out, rather than a grab and pull-up method like the BB one.

That's really not that fast for 11 jumps. If you were flying solo, you didn't have a frame of reference by falling with someone, a simple move of your pelvic region down, a suit not made for you, perhaps knees a little down, a little head high, even the type of turns you might have been making... all variables that can contribute to a little extra speed. In time and the more dives you make with others, the more you will learn to adjust your fall rate. For now, just continue on the path of progression with your Instructors and the TLO's on the A card. If you have 11 jumps, then you've only got roughly 13 minutes of flying knowledge. Give it some time. Enjoy. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

OK. so... We have two major parties, the Republican Party and the Democratic Party and four minor parties, the Independent Party, the Constitution Party, the Green Party and the Libertarian Party. And, according to Wikipedia, there are about twenty active micro parties: America First Party American Party Boston Tea Party Independence Party of America Moderate Party Modern Whig Party Objectivist Party Party for Socialism and Liberation Peace and Freedom Party Reform Party of the United States of America Socialist Equality Party Socialist Party USA Socialist Workers Party United States Marijuana Party Unity Party of America Workers World Party Working Families Party Now, if that's not enough, we have who appear to be Centrists with Republican leanings starting the "Tea Party" and Centrists with Democratic leanings starting the "Coffee Party." Now, the way I understand it most Tea Partiers are registered Republicans and most Coffee Partiers are registered Democrats. So, if we look thru the Wiki list, it would appear there is a party or several parties within a party that support some faction of that major party's micro belief. Evidently, it's not about belonging to a micro party within a major party; it's more about jumping on the latest and greatest something party that has the most media attention for the moment and before long, there will be so many new micro parties that the media will lose it's 15 second attention span for each party's 15 minutes in the spotlight. So, I propose the following - A Beer Party. Our mission will be to enlighten the government as to the needs of the middle class. We need more TV channels on more mediums than just Dish, cable or fiber, but more importantly we need less chick flicks and more action hero movies. We need a Hooters on every corner and a Turbine DZ in every county. We need less Limbaughs, Hannity's, Becks and the other ten percent of political mouths from all parties to shut the fuck up and be removed from the airways and replaced with Boobie TV (I nominate Thanatos as Executive Producer). So, I hereby announce that the first national meeting of the newly-formed Beer Party on Saturday, May 1st, at DZ's all across the nation and that day to be a National Holiday named, "I Don't Give a Shit About Politics Day." To participate, all one needs to do is show up at a DZ near you, bring lotsa beer and not discuss politics at all. Wait, shit... we already do that. Welcome to the "Beer Party!!!"

Sorry, didn't mean to imply Bill was the skydiver in the picture. Bill was the local news affiliate anchor for Wide World of SPorts and was jumping with Mike considerably in those days and thought per chance you might know him.

Update on Mike. He's doing well with his real estate business and now lives Lake Hudson in Oklahoma. He throws an old-timer's skydiving party every so often and we jump in over the lake. Bill Mitchell left Tulsa for awhile in his news anchor career, but is now back. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

IMO, air or ground control at an airport like JFK demands the utmost of focus. I think a child in that environment was inappropriate. Even if the child was sitting in a chair observing and fell off the chair; any parent's natural instinct is to snap their head to check if their kid is OK. In that single instant; focus is lost and the outcome could be less than favorable. When you have other people's lives in your hand, there comes a responsibility to focus, concentrate and ensure those people have your undivided attention. On a separate, but similar note; it's not just the big bad FAA condemning the occurrence, even his own union is denouncing the event. Edit: Do I think he needs to lose his job over it.. no. And, I like Max's idea of creating an ATC camp for kids. There's some good computer apps out there along with a guided walk through of ATC, etc. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Hey Lori... My favorite electives to take while in college were Zoology. First, let me say that I'm going off memory here. Worms "can" cross-fertilize, but that's only of they happen to bump into each other (they have no eyes). They are hermaphrodites and mostly self-reproduce. There are two more likely explanations since they have been around much longer than concrete sidewalks and driveways, 1) the rain allows them to move faster along the surface to a more rich food environment, and 2) the rain makes the same kind of thumping sound as some of their underground predators, so they surface to move away more quickly (they know not what above ground predators may be lurking). So, because of the "no eyes" thing, it's not like the rain is an invite to the sidewalk bar to check out the chicks. I can tell you this... not from my studies in Zoology; but those in observations of human behavior. When you've learned to dissect a lobster in class and find it fascinating, there are very few ladies who are impressed with your new found knowledge and begin dissecting their lobster dinner. They really don't give a shit where the gills are found in a lobster. As a result, I found it much cheaper and advantageous in the human mating game to go with the steak dinner.

All, As most of you know, the Anvil Brothers has been in a state of flux for a little while. I am honored to announce that MAXMADMAX is now the official Administrator for the Anvil Brothers. Max was previously the administrator of the Texas Anvils chapter. In due time, Max will migrate all the AB numbers to the www.anvilbrothers.com website. the Anvil Brothers has a long history of interrupting boogies to form the "Sunset, no suit, so stress, sunset load" where Gary, Ant, myself, Brentster and others would launch an 8 way base and dare you, "less than Anvils" to catch us. We hope to see you at future boogies. Please give Max your support as he grows the Anvil Brothers into an international organization. If you're interested in starting a local chapter, please contact maxmadmax and remember; our goal is to help the "little'uns." Good Luck, Max and thank you for keeping it going.

Hutch, A couple of days late, but you were not forgotten on your BSBD day. Been doing a considerable amount of traveling and Sunday was the first full family day at home in a while. I miss you, Bro and still thank you for your introduction to Buddism. Haven't been staying up on my studies of late, but will get back to it soon. Until next year... WOOF!!!!!!!!!!

Its review was done in an objective capacity as if it happened anywhere. Even as one opposed to linked exits while as a TI, in this case it "appeared" the videographer was being heads-up about the situation and trying to assist in getting the Anvil to bend down a little on exit to assist the TI. That's just my observation and assumption and not to be interpreted as fact. Only that videographer and TI knows the intent of the action.
