either way bill, the offenders belong in jail for some serious crimes. the analogies may not be spot on, as we all know how much you like to point out idiosyncratic details and hound them, but the point remains valid- murder, pedophelia/molestation are both inexusable offenses. Whether one is worse than the other can be debated, sure, but neither can be excused. So there I was... Making friends and playing nice since 1983

Ahh, Hitler was such a tragic loss of life too... leader of a nation and all. Ok so that is a massive exaggeration but some people have a zero tolerance rule when it comes to this guy's character flaws. It's an open forum, no one has to be nice.

very true... though you probably could successfully issue me a fly-by teabagging while wingsuiting given your gliding prowess vs. my ability to successfully fly a suit without dying (so far). speaking of which, i told DSE I'd do a tribute jump @ american boogie. it involves wingsuits and (fake) swollen nut sacks, i now can safely assume you have expertise in both? wanna organize? he he he... what's your decision on the mice? get video...

I took 5 measley stitches in my upper lip after i got into a little drunken scrap at 2 AM... another story for another time... but took a cab to the E.R. after one of my teeth managed to find its way through my lip. Thankfully the E.R. was empty and i got my 4 or 5 souchers and a scrip for some pain meds, didnt even give me any while i was there. $2200 for 40 minutes in the E.R. and 5 pieces of string in my lip. Took my insurance 1.5 years to pay me back. Left for south africa 2 days later to do some shark diving

off topic but it reminded me... www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRPRVTQl6Sc cracks me up... sorry, back to scheduled programming, congrats man!!! So there I was... Making friends and playing nice since 1983

In 3rd or 5th grade we were doing the california physical fitness tests. while doing the # of sit ups in a minute test, one of my good friend's sister ended up being my partner. She was tasked with holding my feet while i did sit ups, and I hers. unfortunately for her i hadn't discovered the need to take a morning sh*t yet- I farted multiple times and they LOUDLY reverberated off the plastic covered foam mat. i had a small cheering section by the end of that minute; my buddy's sis never let go of my feet! surprisingly, never got a nickname from it.

i assume they scoped you like they did me. I had 3 1-1.5" incisions: under my belly button, left side of my abdomen, and one more about 2-3 inches up from my johnson. THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE. In my experience, they suggested 4 weeks. I felt fine and jumped 10 or 11 days after, I'm still fine 3ish years later. There was no way i was even thinking about jumping 5 or 6 days post op though, felt too weird, couldnt move well. After about a week it began to feel way better each day. Went to the DZ, did a couple sprints in the landing area and some basic calisthenics. Decided to do a hop n pop and did some hard turns under canopy, including riser turns, landed no prob, all was good in the world. Was a good weekend as i had just received my first rig. It was just before or just after my 22nd birthday and I was in pretty darn good shape @ the time. around jump #80 on a 190 safire loaded @ 1.2ish, wings container, previous 60 jumps on a 210 or 190, and all 80 jumps had been made within about 8-10 months.

Clap........clap.....clap....clap...clap..clap.clapclapclapclapCLAPCLAPCLAPCLAPCLAP! Arnold is doin his thang "fine you dont like it my way? I'll put it to a vote!" He'll express regret and remorse publicly, but i bet behind closed doors he is happy cuts will finally be made and some responsibility will surface for the first time in a while in Sac town. Funny how easy it is for politicians to publicly chastise business owners/operators for spending habits, yet when they're a few B's or even a T in debt, it's the rich guys' fault for not ponying up. Couldn't possibly be their own fault for spending it in the first place... Reminds me of Brick participating in an argument in Anchorman "LOUD NOISES!!!!!" So there I was...

i sort of met her/saw her in action a couple times at a hotel i used to work for while she campaigned. also ran into her a few times while interning in DC. Thoroughly unimpressed is an understatement... which is accurate for many politicians I've encountered. before you get all 'you hate dems' on me, one of the only politicians i was ever impressed with was a D congressman from florida.

You know what sucks about that from readin gthat article? The whole thing is over minimum insurance coverage- taking the ownership issue out of the equation- blows that lawyers and the sue happy require all this insurance I know it is important and all, just sucks that because of lawyers things are like this in every aspect of life now. in funnier business, my favorite paragraph in the article" "On Tuesday, Authority Chairman Ron Whitford worried that the airport's insurance carrier might cancel their policy, not only because skydivers have used Outlaw Field as a drop zone, but because, he said, they consumed alcohol on the property, which is prohibited." HA HA HA HA HA! Oh no! Beer on a DZ?! Why that is... that is so despicable! c'mon guys, let's keep bringin' the regulators around our stomping grounds so they can now take beer n' bonfire time away from us too. Not good, keep gov't authority far, far away. So there I was... Making friends and playing nice since 1983

portraying cats in a questionable manner: they are guilty, though some found it hysterical. Not sure of any illegal activities there, however. Humane society scam? ahhh, not so much. more like disorganized fun for regular jumpers that added fund raising as an after thought. The 20 T-shirt sales produced less than the meager anticipated amount due to communication errors. ***This is second hand info from peops @ AST*** BUT! this is America so spin it however you want. Though, i would suggest/ask MODs to start a seperate thread for Cat AIDS boogie issues since it was an AST original idea for a party and not skyride related (i believe there was one already? could be wrong tho). Candidly- I wish I thought of it! You stay classy Tennessee! can you pm me for my email so i can take a look at your timeline? also, who created the timeline and where did the information for the timeline come from? first though, i'd like to see the timeline. timeline, timeline, timeline. One word. BTW, who are you? Also, I heard that Chuck is hiding out somewhere near the Mexican border just outside San Diego. He's supposedly running drugs stuffed in various large frozen fish, as well as facilitating the entry of swine flu to the US- genetically altered to specifically target babies. Skyride is supposedly keeping the profits of drug sales, and the sale of baby organs + stem cells in anticipation of Obama funding considerable amounts of research. In other news, Jeff Finch was actually the one responsible for the cat slayings in the Miami area, he was guided by skyride, as well as his love for depiciting cats in a questionable manner using photoshop as his artistic vehicle.

jesus christ, how many times do i have to say i am completely unaffiliated with skyride or any dropzone? I have never worked for skyride or any dropzone in any state/country ever. I'm in sales for large hotel chain. you've probably stayed in one of my hotels before, so thanks for my jumps and tunnel time. keep trying to connect the invisible dots. smoke enough shit and someone is bound to see em i guess.

I'm sure your thinly-veiled threats against other members will be well-tolerated here. since you don't accept PM's, this is what i wanted to tell you: dude, that was not a threat in the least. unlike some of the other people on here that have (privately and publicly without repercussions) wished harm on me, mals, etc. i hope everyone stays safe. I've just seen some weird shit happen from negative vibes is all i was saying, in no way was i hoping something bad happens to the dude, quite the contrary actually.

Ive never made a skydive in TN, so i have no clue what youre talking about. from what i hear from TN though, neither do you. I'd keep an eye on wild accusations like that if i were you. Karma has this strange tendency to bite back... So there I was... Making friends and playing nice since 1983

Quite simply, they're not! ha ha ha, a dropzone is nothing like skyride, skyride is nothing like a dropzone. That's all I'm saying, they are owned by the same dude, but different businesses with different management. This thread is focused on the skyride business he owns... s'all I'm sayin'! the DZs are as clean as any other DZ. I'm concerned this could lead to a bunch of whuffo lawyers crawling around all our DZs (nationally) looking for and/or regulating 'safety' issues. Who wins then? .com postwh*res? awesome... pat yourselves on the back. Personally i'd like to keep jumping, and keep them legal types far away from my fun zones, and all others like 'em.

Another unrelated post to the thread. Sounds like a personal issue in TN with regards to a dropzone and parachute operations. Nothing listed about skyride, which is what I thought this thread is supposed to be discussing. edit: from the looks of those pictures, seems like they have some pretty top notch equipment for students!

I'm not a fan of Kobe either but he IS the Lakers. I like him well enough, and you're right, he is the lakers. Anyone here see the behind the scenes thing that spike lee did on him- his commentary on a few games? He is MUCH less selfish than you think. Listening to his thoughts- the guy must break down footage like crazy the way he is dialed in on the competition. He really makes an effort to spread the ball around and get mismatches to occur all over the floor to keep the other team off balance, it's pretty amazing to hear how well he knows the game and the opposition.

ding ding ding - we have a winner This could turn into a guys v. girls thread, lol. If I had 8 kids @ 26, then have my wife barking at me nonstop the way she does... the kids are the only reason why he is still around cuz he is a good dad and not a deadbeat. She's f*cking the security guard as well, so who's worse? I hope he gets out for his sanity and so the kids don't grow up thinking the way they interact is normal. So there I was...

I've never liked the arrogance of the Lakers. It's even worse with Kobe (oooh look at me) Bryant. That may have been true of the old lakers, but in recent years that is just a stigma that has stuck from a few years back. The guy can't help it if he is THAT GOOD, like saying lance armstrong is a show off. People love to hate em now; funny how 'being on the bandwagon' went from loving em to hating em. Don't hate the player!

I remember my first beer too! High school was awesome. +1 billv, we agree

I can't figure it out... I like everything that everyone on this website hates!!! ha ha! Kobe is gonna rain BOMBS tonight... So there I was... Making friends and playing nice since 1983
