    i second that emotion! additionally, just like other things that are illegal that people find ways to do: if there's enough of a demand that can be profitably supplied someone will cash in on it. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

    a hard helmet that comes down over your ears will reduce the wind noise and a full face will reduce it alot. IMO ipods have the potential to divide your attention in a situation when you need 100% of your attention on 1 thing to save your life. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

    there are several places on the net to find an example of a "cease and desist" letter. which can be sent to the collector to have them stop calling. if that doesn't work, which it should because of the fair debt collections act, call back and ask to talk to the supervisor to straighten it out that you aren't the person they're looking for. if these scumbags are too hard headed to stop after either of these 2 methods you may have to get the phone company involved to prove that you are a different person than the one who had that phone number origionally, or change your phone number. this may seem like alot to go through. but you have to realize that collectors work on comission and they actually go to training on how to scare, bully, and harass people into paying them. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

    i was able to afford my rig by saving up and sacraficing other things. i stopped eating out, bought less expensive store brand or generic food, cancelled my home internet and phone (i'm posting from work and i have a cell), and i backed out of going to this year's Voodoo Fest; which would have easily cost me a few hundred in hotels, food and drinks. i now own a used eclipse that's FF friendly with a Skymaster 170 and a Tempo reserve. the canopy is perfect for my current skill level and i'll be able to downsize to a 150 with this rig in the future. since buying my used rig i've made a heck of alot more jumps than when i was renting, i feel i'm learning more because i'm able to stay more current, and i've won 2 1st. place scrambles medals. my .02 cents: save up, buy used, jump alot and have fun. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

    a cheap way i found to get some extra comfort with my old Eclipse is wearing "slider shorts". they can be found in the baseball section of sporting goods stores and have padding around the upper leg and thighs. cost about $20. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
