No they don't. They can drag it out as long as possible and they will. This is hardball, not for sissies with "bone spurs".

Hey, Billvon did not credit his lyric quote either. But no one failed to recognized the guy who wrote "An Englishman in New York". Shelley probably never visited NY.

Maybe someday. But unlikely, former POTUSi are golden. Edit to add: 'If we had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so' Robert Mueller, May 29, 2019

Yes, nothing new. NPR is hammering away on the point that charging Trump was never an option. We already knew that, but Mueller seems to have emphasized it.

This 7 YO will recover. Probably due to all the T&Ps... https://fox2now.com/2019/05/28/7-year-old-rushed-to-hospital-after-accidental-shooting/

Mueller is going to give a statement and possibly take questions at 1100 ET this morning.

In North America we don't commonly study Shelley in school. I had to look it up. Does that make me semi-literate?

There was no shortage of support for Nazis in the USA before it joined the war. Same in Canada as well.

Tipping your AFF instructors

Ya, but is also too lazy to do the hard work of tandem. There's a reason why tandem pays better. -
Me? Stronger laws for America? I suppose you mean gun control. Overall America has crazy strong laws and prisons full of people, many of whom don't need to be there. But you know that.

Or both. Many people do. The very best thing is to jump and pack as often as possible.

Only in America do 11 year olds go to jail. It is unheard of in Canada and other western countries. A person under 12 can not even be charged with a crime here. They are not considered capable of forming criminal intent. I should have known that it is considered so normal in the US that you would misunderstand my meaning.

It's all about the third eye.

Last but not least for today. An 11 YO is in jail for accidentally killing his 9 YO brother. Only in America. https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/crime_police/article_17ef2bf8-7fec-11e9-8c3c-5378ea4a731f.html

Another professional gun toter screws up. At an elementary school. https://www.presstelegram.com/2019/05/26/security-officer-accidentally-shoots-gun-during-building-search-at-long-beach-elementary-school/

Always fun to show your toys to your buddy. Your soon to be dead buddy that is. https://www.kold.com/2019/05/27/tpd-suspect-custody-after-shooting-tucsons-southeast-side/

Gun range safety people. I mean really?????? Killed at the shooting party? Sure is nice to have cool toys to play with. https://fox28media.com/news/local/spd-1-person-seriously-injured-after-accidental-shooting

This accident has resulted in a charge of negligent manslaughter. https://www.wtxl.com/news/local-news/one-person-dead-in-shooting-near-west-tharpe-street-tpd-investigating

The Earth will certainly be destroyed as the Sun ages and well before its fuel is exhausted.

Tesla may or may not make it in it's current form. Investors may take a bath. However their technology will live on. A merger with an established car maker picking up the pieces could be in the future. But the gigafactory will continue churning out product. You may live to gloat some more, but the world will keep on changing as you age.

Every time you predict the last days someone points out that the last days have been imminent for at least 2000 years. This time it's my turn.

"sphere of consciousness" AKA hocus pocus. I used to find that LSD brought everything into a large degree of clear focus.

That makes it a theory I suppose. Several other manufacturers don't see it as a problem. Lots of people get satisfactory results from ZP PCs though. I will agree that they are slapped together and not particularly well made. But that generally is not causing a problem because as a rule the PC will outlast the high wear bridle and kill line assembly. Unless it is F-111 and becomes too porous. The OP is not asking about what is causing his linetwists. He is asking about his problem with slow sub terminal deployments. A ZP PC would help with his problem simply by increasing the force. It would seem that the Sunpath supplied part is not doing the job for some reason, even though his canopy and container combination is well within their guidelines. Could it possibly, just maybe, be that Sunpath has not tried every combination in the situation of a sub-terminal deployment and that the F-111 PC is not up to the job? I'm sure there are other possibilities, but given the description of the problem, and the clear detailed report of the condition of the gear, it would appear that most likely more drag is needed to produce a satisfactory result. Edit to add: The OP did say he was waiting for an answer from Sunpath. I wonder what they told him?

You have found another new prophet! Congratulations, it must be very fulfilling for you.
