0:0:0 Ok, someone help me out... what do the numbers mean? I figure mine are all ZERO so far since I was unable to jump today due to ear problems, however I do plan on jumping all day tomorrow hopefully, a couple of people have offered me coach jumps at Skydive San Diego this weekend which I am REALLY looking forward to and hope to get, ... And my rig is going to show up on Tuesday hopefully it will be inspected / repacked by the following weekend so I can jump it before I go out to sea for a month!

Well, we got that Guns vs Doctors thread.... Seems everyone went after the doctors on that one though when the guns were clearly the issue FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

I've found that 90% of the time when computers just start hanging it is one of two things, eather the software load or bad memory.. If it's hanging before the operating system loads, while computer still booting BIOS I'd lean towards the RAM. If you do find that it is a RAM problem you may also have to reload the software depending on if any bad information has been written to the hard disk. Video card is another option, but I doubt it. Good luck, Nate FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

I would like to see where you read the NSA can crack 128 / 256k bit encription in a matter of minutes, it's really just not possible. Also do you realize how impossible it would be to monitor that much email traffic, or even any traffic on the internet? Do you understand ANYTHING about how information is routed over the internet? I would really like to see where this info comes from, I dont see how it's possible. Nate FGF #??? I miss the sky...

That has got to be the dumbest thing I've ever seen.. I like it the way it is, if you wanna drive your big ass gas guzzling SUV by yourself all the time, pay the tax at the pump... What they gonna do, make you buy some GPS device to put in your car before you can continue to drive it? Also seems like this could be a violation of privacy as a GPS receiver tracking your driving habits could also track where you go / hang out.. Screw that. FGF #??? I miss the sky...

Oh, now we should judge something by the relative amount of good versus evil that it produces. That's odd, the anti-gun folks never use that philosophy when advocating gun bans - all they see is evil. GUNS SAVE LIVES!Every year, Americans use guns 800,000 to 2.4 million times to protect themselves and their families - as many as 75 lives saved by a gun for every life lost to a gun, as many as 5 lives protected per minute. About 1% of America's 240 million guns are used for protection annually. Finally someone gets what really matters out of this thread, GUNS ARE A GOOD THING! I know this will probably heat things up again, but making guns illegal is one of the DUMBEST thing we can do.. All you do when you make something illegal is remove it from the law abiding citizens hands, then the only people left with them are criminals FGF #??? I miss the sky...

I sometimes told myself that the sport wasnt for me, but something kept me coming back.. I was usually so freaked out that for my first 10 solo's I didnt even do a single back flip or anything, suddenly it just clicked, I relaxed, and now I do all kinds of stupid crap and have a blast.. I'm glad I didnt listen to myself or anyone else who may have said "sport not for me". I'd really be missing out now FGF #??? I miss the sky...

I hate my job because of weeks like this week, 90+ hour work weeks.. FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.

Most reputable sites now have a box that you can check saying you don't want to get promotional e-mail. I looked for that and didn't see it, so I asked about it in the original thread. I got a smart-ass remark about spam being canned ham. Now I see that I did get spam after all. That's a good way to piss people off and lose a potential customer, which is what has happened now. It's one email, and it's an email that I'm sure someone is going to use to get a killer deal for something related to an expensive hobby I love. Now if they turned around and sold my email address to 5 million other companies, i'd probably be a bit upset... FGF #??? I miss the sky...

Back Loop, Front Loop, Barrel Roll A License

The diving exit I think I like best (out of the otter) is facing the rear of the plane and diving almost head down, feet back arms out.. I seem to be stable immediately on this exit. The exits that I'm facing the wind stream seem to be less stable to me. FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't. -

I never really did them till this weekend, and I've gotta say I wish I had been sooner because I think it's the easiest exit for me, I can dive out and be stable the whole exit no problem, and it's just an awsome way out :) I think I found which exit I will use for my Hop-and-Pop that I STILL need to do FGF #???
