  1. I have to admit this. When I first got my bonehead I wore it down 288 at about 75mph with my head out the window. I also had my goggles on!! Now whos the DORK! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  2. We knew you were a dork Dave.. but, did you have to tell everyone? now when I'm seen with you in public or at the dz they're going to think I'm a dork too.. this sucks "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  3. So whos making the trip up to Dallas for the boogie this weekend. I wont know if I can go till late tomorrow afternoon. Work and money may keep me on the ground for about a month. If on the other hand I'm able to make the trip! Zennie and I are driving up Late Friday night. Someone up there keep the porch lights on and have cold beer for us when we arive!! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  4. Congrats !! on the 100th!! Wish I had that many jumps I jump at Spaceland here in Houston area.. I know the people she went with. They are some of the BEST in the area. So I'm sure it was well thought out and dirt-dived. Those people are great when it comes to helping the newbs to the sport I'd feel safe with them surrounding me in a campfire jump *hint hint* "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  5. That's actually a smaller version on the Antonov they've got much much larger planes. Some of the Russian Cargo planes make the US Military Cargo look like Cessna-182's Check out this link Here is some pictures of the larger planes. Antonov AN-225 Mriya 290ft,00in - Wing Span 275ft,07in - Length 10,280 - Wing Area 1,300,000 - Gross Weight 6 x 51,590 lb DT-18T - Engines Now that's a huge aircraft!!! I've seen one kinda like this one up close here at the Elington Airforces Base in Hou. A company I worked for chartered one of their planes to move some oil field equipment into Russia. Don't even think about wanting to jump from it unless you've got some seriously deep pockets. It just started at 1 million to get the plane to land.... not counting fuel, cargo, hotels for the 7 man crew. ect... Here is one picture to give you a scale of just how big this plane is. Here is a picture of the plane with one of the planes you see the Rangers are going to jump next to it "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

    I think the one thing that is the funniest on this thread. There is actually a human female admiting that she has sex with skreamer! If she looks anything like her sister... she could do way better then skreamer "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

    You fuckin PostWhore you!! Quit posting and jump! How are those knees Levin.. heard you scraped them up a bit. heheh "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  9. I swear! Living in South Texas without AC Would be the PITS!! I don't understand any house without AC.. I've heard that there are some in other states without AC. That's crazy! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  10. I'm not having a really bad day. This weather in Houston has been suckin for about a week now and needs to find somewhere else to go. Isn't there some other state that needs all this rain? I guess the weather and the lack of funds {aka: money} are my only complaints lately..... That and the lack of jump because of the afore mentioned problems... "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  11. I was thinking that the movie xXx was the one where we lost a brother to an accident.. "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  12. 1{first time at a "hoity toity" beer bar downtown Houston place called The Flying Saucer}:1 {2-way sit with Rachill}:1 {maybe} First opening with line twists. 4 wraps had to kick out. Wahoooo that makes me feel good!! I was worried about my skills till we went on that jump I think in about 10 or 15 more jumps maybe sooner I'll be ready for the FreeFly League!! hehe watch out I want FIRST PLACE!! hehehe The beer bar was pretty cool I have to admit. I'm not much of a beer snob but they have a beer to meet ANYONES tastes. Something like 250 beers on-tap. I was pretty twisted by the time we left. They've got Flying Saucers in other cities too. Not sure where though. Nice place for a "Beer Snob Bar" "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  13. I agree.. but for the simple fact he ratted himself out.. He told me he was drinkin with a few others and someone caught him while he was drunk and he told them his "true" age.. {17} I mean 18!!! So Roger/S&TA Grounded him. Sucks to be at a huge DZ with nice planes and can't jump! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  14. I'm bringing this thread back up because I still haven't a clue as to what I'm going to do to celebrate. I know I'll be drinking beer Saturday night. Who's going to be at Spaceland this weekend? "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

Not sure if I'll jump much kinda expencive but I should be there drinkin and throwin down!! C'mon and come meet us! "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  18. I'm looking for someone in the Houston area I can borrow some books from. I went lastnight and tried to find The 1st Chronicles of Thomas Covenant: Unbeliever at the used book store and they didn't have them. I don't really want to buy new. So if there is anyone in the area or someone willing to loan them to me please pm me and I'll get my address or meet you at a dz in the surrounding areas. I just haven't read them since the mid 80's and was wanting to read the trilogy again, since this thread came up and reminded me of books I've enjoyed but haven't read in many years.. Thanks "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  19. I hate to look ignorant when in certain company, but did Orwell write a book about a Time Machine ? or am I confusing it with the Time Machine by Orson Wells? "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  20. Jumps on the plane and grabs the prop!! *WEEEEEEEEEEE SPIN BAYBAY SPIN!!!* "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  21. Dave I coulda sworn all you aggies were the slow and the weak of the herd? I may have been wrong. Nope that couldn't be.. I've never been wrong before. "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  22. I enjoy reading. I haven't gotten engrossed in a book in a long while. I do though have some favorites I've read. Firebird series "trilogy" - Kathy Tyers The 1st & 2nd Chronicles of Thomas Covenant: The Unbeliever LoTR Anything Koontz or King Anything non-fiction about he mafia I used to have a rather eclectic book collection before my ex decided she wanted it more then me anyways it's nice to see that skydivers can read and not just look at pictures.. "Not that there is anything wrong with that" "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  23. That's my cat. Sleeps all day long whether I'm there or not. When I am home he just seems to sleep closer to me or on me. When I'm at work it doesn't bother him, until I come home and he meeows till he gets his 15 minutes of attention then he's usually cool the rest of the evening. He does like to "talk" though. All the time when he's in the mood. Oh and hairball hacks then sometimes they come up. Not a big mess. Cat's are cool.... IMHO "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  24. Don't get hamsters they eat their own young!! If you want something that is the coolest get SUGAR GLIDERS!! They are a riot! Noctrunal but still a riot! They'll keep you up all night long jumping around the cage skreetching at all hours of the night and just to think when your off at work all day they are sleeping so they can do it all night again. Plus when they have babies they don't eat their own young "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
  25. Thanks she told that to pop and me when we were going up Thursday. pop said he couldn't see his alti because of the baggy suit he was wearing. That's when she said the quote "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
