    I just hate packing. I've jumped plenty of my own packjobs and will pack if I have to....but it makes skydiving not as fun for me....and I jump to have fun.

    Congrats! It took me 36 jumps and I thought that was a lot. Have fun with it, part of the reason it took me 36 was packing as well. I HATE packing and am very happy being married to a rigger/packer.

    I agree.....didn't word my post very well. I don't think that's the best way to handle the situation....but if the same thing happened to me.....I can't say I wouldn't do the same. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    I dunno, thats pretty effed up what she did as well. Not like they were just together a few months.....3 years and then because some dudes got $$ she's leaving me....and oh yeah pregnant as well. I might be inclined to post all the pictures I had as well. Just my $.02. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    Couldn't go back and edit my first post....but I did owe beer this weekend. Jumped at Skydance this weekend....1st jumps there. Brought the case of beer to the DZ with me. Great dropzone and met some great people. It'll be home till at least November, nice airplane, nice people, great view....couldn't ask for more!

    0:2:0 FINALLY made more than 1 jump in a weekend since I broke my femur last July. I did just enough to keep current and these are the 1st jumps I've made in just under 6 months. Good to be back in the air and back for good! No problems this weekend, and finally got some gear. I sold mine 6 months ago because I gained weight, and didn't want another broken leg.

    Bump. If any one could post a pic of the top of their Viso I'd greatly appreciate it and would owe beer to the person if we happen to ever cross paths . Thanks. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    I would appreciate that. Maybe something popped out during shipping. I had insurance on it, but hopefully it is supposed to be there. I shipped it to Poland, and will never ship internationally again. We are having a really hard time communicating back and forth. I would appreciate the pictures. Thanks Scott.

    I need a favor from someone who owns a Viso. I sold mine on ebay and the person I sold it to is saying it is damaged. The pictures he sent me were of a small hole in the top (opposite side of the wristband) of the altimeter. While I don't ever remember seeing this before, it actually looks like it was designed with said hole. It just doesn't look damaged at all, no cracks, jagged edges, etc. If someone who has this altimeter could please look at the top of theirs and tell me if there is a small hole with silicon in the top. Thanks in advance. edit to add: if it in fact does have this hole, could someone post a quick picture of the hole in theirs? I'd greatly appreciate it, as I'd imagine he won't just take my word for it. Thanks. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    Hey that rhymes....I'd pull lower, but the AAD goes off at 650ft. So..700 is the lowest I can get without firing it every other time. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    Heck, for five bucks it's worth it. It's pretty amusing. For something the size of a tandem canopy it's a swooping machine even if it takes about 20 360s to get down from 700ft since that's where I'm pulling to get my bravery points. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    I bought the GoSports Skydiving game for the PS3. Actually it is a download from the Playstation store for $4.99. I thought what the heck, bought it and it is actually decently amusing. Messed with it for a while last night. The physics are all wrong for the canopy flight.....but once you figure out when to stop turning and all.....its pretty cool to see how far you can start out and make it back to the tuffet. Mostly for my brother, who is thinking of buying it.....I uploaded a clip to youtube. Figured I'd post the link here for anyone thinking of gettitng it. It was worth the 5 bucks IMHO. http://www.youtube.com/v/XSJw73udc-c Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    4 months now. I broke my femur in June and I've jumped one time since then, that was in August. I need to go to the DZ and rent a bigger canopy to make a jump. My leg just isn't quite as strong as it should be (the muscle that is, the bone has healed). Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    Great song! edit to add: And you should see my 5 year old daugther singing it! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    Wow, wonder how much a plane ticket is. I moved away from Oklahoma about 6 months ago. Used to play a lot at Cherokee Casino in Tulsa. Only pro that was ever around was Scotty Nugyen. His girlfriend is from Tulsa and they live local, or so I hear. Good luck! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    It is pretty bad when your mother, who has probably only just learned to play poker, makes it further than you do! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    I am 99.99% positive that isn't Jamie. He has glasses....the guy in the picture does not. Jamie didn't have a goatee in this years WSOP. But that has still been a few months. Looks nothing like him to me. I'll post another pic of him...... The guy has different facial features than Jamie also....but all in all it isn't a great picture. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.
  20. jloirsdaan
    Here's a picture of Jamie. Not the guy in the pic above. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

    I'm pretty sure the other guy isn't Jamie Gold. Not the best shot....but looks nothing like him. The one on your right is definitely Greg Raymer. As far as games, the new 2008 World Series of Poker game is pretty good. http://www.amazon.com/World-Poker-2008-Battle-Bracelets/dp/B000TTDLO4 I play on Absolutepoker.net. They have "play" money games as well as some pretty cheap tournaments. But if all you want right now is a PC game....then the one above is the best I've found. I have the 2007 version as well.

    LOL....that resort is actually a very nice place from what I hear. Had a KBR employee I worked with in Iraq that went down to the UAE on R&R twice and went skiing there both times. I actually have LOTS of pictures of that place saved on my computer somewhere. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.
