Congrats man!

Fuckin A, congrats man keep flyinhigh after the 'A'

Skreamer, nimbus and speed racer i couldn't agree with you more- I wish bubba and bin laden a happy marriage. But clay i couldn't disagree with you more, you would always have surrvivors (and other nationalities and religious people who would be turned against the US by this) and when the smoke clears the fundalmentalists resolve would be strengthened further... all those martyrs dying for the course. The only way is to look long term, hope is in the children of these countries that have not been programmed and taught this (i too have seen the iranian youth making there own minds up and fighting for themselves against the regime and ideas- and western ways are more accepted- despite the social condemnation young girls are choosing for themselves that they don't have to live solitary lives until family chooses but can have male friends without the terrible problems arissing) But im not looking to a western world i just want people to be able to choose there own routes and if like them you beleive you are on the religous winning team then don't get scared at others ways of doing things, if they are right in their views then live their lives accordingly and we will be judged in heaven (what ever your name is for it) and you will be proved there. For those like myself who arn't religous, don't beleive in the typical enity of god (well won't follow any organised religion because it causes all this shit and i feel they've lost sight of anything they were working for) let us live our life coz if we are wrong then so be it, i lived my life my way you can't do much more than that. Killing all of them will not stop this from happening again, it will not stop others from hating again because of the US actions, its a circle so stop the round abouts.

I wont say lucky but glad to hear you missed that one and are safe and sound, peace

I was not on no hippy peace to all mankind niavity, of course your gonna listen to your gut instinct and want to strike out and hurt those that hurt you but blaming and labling entire countries as the agressor is bullshit. The ones to blame are governments and the minority that do this shit and support it when it is done. But if you think you can go out and exterminate them all and wow theres the problem gone your mistaken. When Clinton retaliated in bombing sudan he managed to destroy innocent (and i always use that lightly) factory including god knows how many workers. These terrorists are after getting on the world stage - how often do you hear about the middle east when something like this happens. And remember that there are many sides to a story (no state is innocent)and us in the west are probably not getting their full story as are them in their countries not getting our full story. Nothing can excuse them, yes find and punish those reponsible and beat down on countries that condone their actions but one day we will have to talk, and violence will only make greivences on both sides stronger. I hope people arn't taking this the wrong way, im british and ill stand shoulder to shoulder with my american friends because it was an attack on all our ways of life.

My thoughts are still with all yall, alot of respect to the people on the ground doing all they can do- especially the medics and rescurers who lost their lives when the first tower collapsed. Pointing the blame is not going to help, start looking forward to how you can help rather than slander the whole islamic community. All they want is to disrupt, don't let them, do what you can. Calling out for all out war on the countries involved is understandable (even though we don't know who they are yet) especially when you see palenstinians rejoicing in the streets (sick fucks but to be fair most were shocked and horrified in their houses as it said on the news, these celebraters are a minority) as are the terrorists them selves. Its definitley time to beat down hard on the states that finance and harbour them ( and to exterminate the responsible terrorists) but this will mean innocent lives lost on both sides- the one thing thats horrified everyone - innocent. But you can't kill them all, attacking them may just fan the flames then what. And if you manage to successfully attack tham you will just drive this hatred underground and in years to come it will surfice again. We need to beat down but we also need to communicate and publicise arround the world, only way forward. Jihad- remember the crusades? But for now lets just stop the blame and help anyway we can. Peace and love to all, an infidel and proud of it.

Don't what to say apart from i feel for all family and friends, don't be quick to point the finger abroad (remember mcveigh) it could be anyone with any type of excuse (ideology). they say there was one in pensylvania as well? And over here they where saying theres more rogue planes? Sick..

Ive been blinded, oooooooohhhhhh nasty, damn let the insomnia start again....

Hey anyone heard about a student bouncing at topcliffe, west yorkshire (where i did my first jump). Coz haven't heard why properley but his main didint open and when he opened his reserve both deployed and wrapped round each other... like to say my condolinces to family and friends. Hey had a pretty f@"k*8 week, got a job (finally, a good thing) and now can get to skydive u next year (march, april) so if anyones got some pointers or opinions about skydive u and getting packin jobs, tell me :). Looking forward to it, be worth the work over the next 5 months. Hoping to stay out a while and pack/backpack arround and shit, so if anyones got a idea of cheap places to stay that would also be a wicked help. Finally the f***ed up thing, on the way home from a club me and mates found a body from a hit and run. Two hours for a statement and eight sides... no wonder po pissed, shit loads of paperwork. Anyway maybe see some of you guys (and lasses, pc enough for ya) rooftops and sunsets

DUDE!! Damn, hope you heal quick peace Rooftops and sunsets

Damn man how did you let her name slip. Next time... :)

Which was your favourite to jump from? The b-17 bomb sounds alot of fun + which jet were you jumping from?

Think im in love, can i have a job :)- Kiddin aside, i would sacrafice the money for skydiving, hell yeah, but i couldn't see a way to do it at the moment without getting a job (unemployed at mo) maybe just to get me there. Im gonna try my hardest to find a way to support myself through skydiving or a 9-5- atleast im still jumping. Im gonna concentrate on my aff and enjoy it, have fun- the rest will clear it self up later. Rooftop and sunsets

No musical stimulation, oh dear. Only made for shroomin + plus whatever, oh dear., can't appreciate it, oh dear. Shame your missing out on alot of good music, especially lyrically. BTW- Punk and hip hop scene was synomomous with each other in the states when it was first born- Headz back then realised how much the extremes had in common. What are you gonna do when music becomes even more intergrated (now theresa loads of croosovers from styles, how many of the new rock bands have djs, scrachin. How many in hip hop are using live bands- soon the genres blur) Enjoy your music and don't dis others. Party and party hard. Rooftops and sunsets PS- What would be your all time favourite jump music, music you could jump to.

Love music, Hip hop # 1 (its a culture of cultures), but hey in school i went from grunge (yep u guessed it Nirvanna) right through to punk (old and nu), metal, dance. And i still have open ears, as i said if it gets me movin- its all good. Hip hop though is pretty misunderstood- It takes from every where, all music styles and the violence well sometimes lifes like that but if you listen most of it is about having fun, parties, fine woman, good music and expressing who we are , fears and a need, sadly to look out for yourself and others. I don't think thats such a bad message.

Good point- moral point good story a bit dubiest. Hey theres no harm in talking about it, hopefully anyone contemplating doing it would read this and realise the stupidity (by listening to experinces, stories and views) of it, equally if we didn't then maybe some might jump high because they never heard different, don't be scared to talk, atleast offer your side to it and allow people the opportunity to make up their own minds- with all sides of the story. ---- How about getting hands stamped to show 'under the influence' which would stop you from jumping for the rest of the day. Nah, just wait till last load then relax, think of the day and chill. Rooftops and sunsets

Hey i like hip hop, rap, rnb, reggae and anything else that takes hold of my ears and gets my ass movin. How can you sit there and slag of hip hop- theres more than one element to it from lyrical to breakdancing, Dj (scratching, cuttin and mixxin), graffitti to street enterpernerialism (not so good sp). Its many artforms under one title, expresses all ideas and concepts and most of the time just how shit is. It has 27 years of history behind it and pulls from all walks of life and music. I bet you don't understand half of whats really being said (slang ). Theres alot of whack joints, especially on the commercial side but i listen to a spectrum of artists in hip hop (don't forget the dj's). Maybe it means more to true headz coz we live this shit. Theres so much more to hip hop than just the music or rapping. Tough guy shit- Like i said earlier we live this shit, some are studio gangstas but others well i leave that to your imagination- but try listening to what is being said in their lyrics than just hearing them. But generally its great to live to, chill to get blunted and whatch some fine ass jiggling and rippling to the beat. Rooftops and sunsets Gutted at the moment coz gonna miss this year notting hill carnival by the look of it- Bastard.

Hi, just a couple o things; Clay, i think if anyone jumped high after that story then they shouldn't be jumping. Weed affects different people different ways (usually 80% of the high i think comes from the brains creative imaginitive use of the drug -what you expect from the high you would probably experience, the sort of person you are is reflected in your high- this is not scientific but observation of a wide community of smokers) The concentration thing- It works for me and most of my friends, especially when completing games on the playstation- We don't buy no more just rent it and finish it in a day (sometimes two)- Not the whole day aswell. I know how i work on it, and im confident of my limits-maybe its the six years smokin the stuff. But as i said im in skydiving for the adrenaline rush (but its more than that, alot more) and if i was high there would be no reason to go up there - ill stick with the wicked natural high i get out of it. Jump well stoned UR a fool, but its up to the person, each to their own- not gonna be a hyporcrite. Carsnogenic affects- One joint made from tabacco and hash equals a 20 pack of fags (smokes for american friends)- Its the combined affect thats the killer. One joint from good ol bush is five times that of a ciggarette. However it depends how you smoke (a well designed bong or bubbler will produce a much cooler hit to the back of the throat as well as filter some of the crap) and how much. I think tabbacco is more dangerous for one reason weeed don't kill, alcohol and especially tabbacco do (a hell of alot more than any other drug) and couple this with anti-carsogenic (plus many others...) medicinal affect of one compound of weed then what is the full extent? Which brings me to the next point, Josh, Where you smoking hash or bush. If it was hash then maybe it could have been a low grade with impurities in it (formula) and if its nasty then maybe could have been this as different substances could have been used. Here no problem coz i know what im getting and from where (very important). If it was bush then probably just a mix of cotton mouth (just dry throat, drink something) and as its your first time probably a bit of uncertainty (mind playa). Don't think allergy but i could be very wrong, just never heard of it (doesn't mean some might not be allergic). Just know what your getting- cotton mouth sucks, it sounds like it was that. Rooftops and sunsets

Halfed baked a must see, new cheech and chong film out soon How High (something like that) starring redman and meth- watchout for it. poor butternut

Hey I can't contemplate jumping red eyed, Im gonna be scared doing my first aff jump (done static and tandem) enough without added paranoia or fear coming from the drug so id say no. Its just not clever, and jumping needs a clearhead as its difficult. I get a kick outta the jump enough, my altered mindstate will come from the andrenaline kick of jumping, flying and a stood up landing. If, and i mean if coz it aint gonna happen, i find what im doing a little dull then there will always be something new to learn, practice and attempt to master (but never get there:). Always different disicplines and techniques to try. I think thats one of the other things that draw mw to it, so much to try. However i will probably smoke at the DZ after last load with a nice, cold beer and realax, chill and chat. But I couldn't jump high, if i was already high what would be the point in going up there. But it last in your blood for up to and beyond 3 weeks. I smoke most days, do things normally while high (even drive) and enjoy it. I can already hear the screams of disgust, drive you say DRIVE, well yeah i know myself and what i can and can do (theres the trick positive thinking) and how it affects me and wares off. So i could smoke early and be stone cold sober later (as no hangovers, headaches or any of that crap with this baby) in the space of a few hours. Others would still see me as high because of the way people think about drinking and its affects but i would be no different than when id got up that morning. So no arround jumping yes but while jumping definitely not (and beleive me the appeal is there slightly i think it could highten the experience but its fun enough, in fact its funnest thing i wanna do). One little point my concentration increases with it so that may be an advantage with percieved hightened perception but nah i can't even convince myself. Ask me again once im an experienced jumper and i feel i would still say no. Enjoy the jump, drugs and beers later after your last load (im not clear on why if im finished jumping that day i couldn't before last load?) Rooftops and sunsets Tell me what you think, suicide for sure but because we don't know what would happen. PS- The driving thing well as the law loves reports so do I, try this one- Weed has little or no affect on driving compared to alcohol.

Hey, read about people wanting to quit, lighten up and give it a chance we, I , need your help, advice, experience and jumping humour (as dark as it gets). Give it a chance, all should feel welcome coz all opinions valid, don't like it ignore the post, dont read it, or better still argue against it and use it to back up your own opinions. Slightly sorry about the magic plants thread, i can get carried away on that subject- some are sort of passionate about these things. Wasn't anything to do with an up yours to establishment- just why are some people scared or uncomfortable with discussing it when some very cool things can be done with/on it. (also wanted to see who are the likeminded people) But basicly there was nothing hidden to it, it was totally open to take it anywhere people wanted to with the thread. Anyway thats gone, forget about it, Im hooked on skydiving, not jumped in three years but definitley love skydiving been asked why i couldn't honestly describe it, words fail, exhilerating yes but so much more to it. After my first tandem, the stupid smile probably is the closest thing to describing it. Talking to friend recently i got- Wont you get bored of jumpig out of a plane? Yeah right. Ive only just begun and im looking forward to learning aff, and the other possibilities on the other side. I don't think whufos realise that it isn't just falling, theres more to the foundations of the sport which im just getting in to. QUESTION: Whats the funniest thing you,ve overheard/been told by whufos friends or not?

Yeah ive had flying dreams, i gonna try and live one :) Cause? Love and desperation for the sport maybe is the fuel?

Why quit? Sorry im probably one of those users u want to delete. The forum has helped me find out alot more and got me a little closer to what i want to do. Info excellent, different ideas and views giving me the chance to learn from experiences, but for experiences you need people- so don't quit. But dont get too uptight as to scare away people who might just talk about an experience essential to any of us.

Awersome, fuckin A, congrats man. I can't wait to do that (not even aff 1 yet) but soon will.

I love you all, wonderful openmindedness (is that a word?). I smoke alot, some might call me a weedhead, fiend, seasoned stoner but its all good. I was just kinda wondering how people felt as I llike to kick back and relax puffin on a blunt. Now i aint a bad persaon and its not even a case of not letting it interfere with my life it honestly doesn't come close to (and i smoke). Legalising would help, i wouldn't be a criminal anymore, dealers would be out of a job (and not because id buy it from the government but because i would grow), coz i grew i would not have to put up with hash as it is now wrapped and sprayed with plastic due to shipping requirements but have nice sweet buddha sensei style (much better for mine and other smokers health (yeah granted a strange thought smoking and health?) as not inhaling plastic (which recondenses in, yes, you guess it lungs). Police would be able to deal with actual problems rather than 5 hours of paperwork for a caution. Also theres a huge environmental- literaturally thousands (hey if we run out of oil how we gonna jump, hemp is a good fuel), hitorical (its been used for 6000 years and it wasn't till 1930s that it was truely banned) and medical reasons for, rather than against, hemp (aka male marajuiana). These need to be examined more so than anyother aspect of the drug coz it might benifit all. But while its still stigmatized it won't get it. Anyway thanks for listening to my ramble nice to know your all cool and openminded, love yall for that. Skydivers from all walks of life and we can still get on. Rooftops and sunsets BTW- It is a damn good middle finger at the establishment, and much better than bombings- anyway semtex is a bitch to get hold of. PS- Its true scientists can't even get mice addicted (or kill) to a thc antagonist (a synthetic version of the active compound only 10+ times stronger). And a dose to od on for us human in a comparison test was something rediculous like 8 tons in 24 hours safer than perscription drugs like asprin- now not even i could do that. Strange world.
