  1. I would happily give you all the yellow cakes I didn't want from past years. I hope you find one!
  2. Whatever I choose, it will be over 6 months from now.
  3. What about upcoming boogies/events? If they advertise (e.g. $15 to 15k), will they raise the prices? At this moment, I'm thinking about Monday and the Byron Boogie at the end of September, but it applies to the others as well of course. DZOs?
  4. Not really. That's what the book will say to use a Normal Distribution as opposed to a Student t, but one of my Stat profs was saying that even a sample size of.....2 can work (if it really is random). grue's n==28 is fine.
  5. Yup. A message board for actuaries (their "bonfire" section is great) and a Christian forum.
  6. Interesting. Now, if anyone has any online pics from the air that would be cool.
  7. Yeah it is! No, I'm kidding. I thought SOMEONE here would be able to chime in though by now.
  8. The Sabre 150 was not one of the choices, but the Stiletto 150. I vote Sabre 135, as it is on the list.
  9. Short answer: Ummm....yes. More in depth: Damn, those are some ugly people!
  10. Hmmm, maybe that's why they aren't there anymore. Dude, I'm getting pissed that no one has responded with something helpful by now. I'll have to cross post in the Bonfire soon if I don't get something helpful soon.
  11. No, no, those like the 3rd and 4th cells. The stabilizers are on the sides.
  12. Ditto. WTF is with this other colored cells off to one side though?? It looks weird! What's wrong with being symmetrical?
  13. (Fast forward to now...) And we talked, and Shawn works across the street my old employer (where Lucia, who will be getting married the weekend of the Boogie used to work), and I will be taking care of it! (unless they don't fit in my car, which is a volvo, so hopefully they will.
  14. Walt, Those really ARE NOT good examples, as they compare different time periods (fat vs thin), bad expressions, clothing, hairstyle, etc. They are pretty much deliberately disingenuous. But you do have a point.
  15. Shawn, Where in Marin do you live? I'll be driving from Novato.
  16. Oh, c'mon you people! No one here has ever jumped at Paradise, CA?
  17. I filled up the empty half of my tank at costco on Monday and paid 2.67 for 87. Shouldn't have to put more in until sometime during the weekend.
  18. I don't think it's that bad, but then, maybe you guys at big DZs like Eloy/Perris/SDC/etc., I just don't know what I'm missing.
  19. Anyone here every jump at Paradise, CA? I went Chico St. in the late 90's and remember seeing these coupons for a $75 tandem, but never did it. A DZ in Paradise must have had some of the best views in the country for a DZ, being already at 2000 ft in the Sierra foothills. I imagine Skydive Lake Tahoe to be pretty cool too.
  20. NOT ALLOWED!!! YOU SHOULD BE BANNED!!!! No I'm kidding, carry on. I like reading the stories.
  21. It's fun. And I've always wanted to fly 'n stuff.
  22. Wow. I don't think anyone here is going to beat that. Stupidest/most dangerious: probably the time I tracked back toward the flight path and virtually over another jumper who was opening up. That was a little sketchy.
