  1. saw the black crowes back on july 2nd at the woodlands (tx) pavilion. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  2. check out the dropzone database here on DZ.com. most info pages give their prices and usually in how much $ for how much altitude. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  3. shorts and one of my many: concert, football, or skydiving t-shirts. barefoot of course. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  4. i voted free fall. there's just something so cool to me about going 120 plus mph with nothing but myself and gravity. can't wait to get my liscense and do some high alti. jumps. then i want to learn to free fly and get into head down so i can go even faster. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  5. i could only afford to do 1 jump a month until i got past AFF level 7 and the price went down. i just made sure to spend lots of time dirt diving and practicing my arch between jumps to keep the dive flow for the next jump fresh in my mind. so yes you should go for your liscense! best of luck & blue skies. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  6. go for it. however i've heard it can be tough at times to make a living soley as a JM. that's why several instructors and coaches at my dz work regular jobs during the week and teach on weekends. i'd say keep your day job, get jumps under your belt, become a coach, become an instructor, then if you're financially able to- become a full time instructor. best of luck & blue skies!! diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  7. 2 words- "King Diamond". the use of that song just made the movie so much funnier, imo. the movie also had: lots of great sharp witted rants by randal, some hilarious and twisted jay and slient bob parts, and a pretty good story about friendship. i highly recommend it. and while if you didn't see frist one you won't be lost, but it does help to know more of the back story of dante and randal. plus Clerks is a very funny movie too. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  8. never learned to drive a manual. driving in houston makes me gald i drive an auto. now, the e-gear paddle shift of a lamborghini gallardo, that would be awesome. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  9. sidekick- they don't have to deal with the press. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

  12. classical or flemanco guitar, disco, 50's 60's and 70's r&b, or go with some reaaly fast stuff like death metal or high bpm jungle. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

    Clerks II

    watching the first one will definately give you a better understanding of the backstory and relationhips of the main characters. heck, i plan on watching the first one right before i head to see the sequel and i've watched the first one at least 10 times. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  16. the episode where cartman is getting rid of the hippies with slayer's "reign in blood" blasting over thier p.a. is priceless to me, because that's my favorite song by my favorite band. also the one where cartman immitates butters on the phone. and any episode with mr. hankey. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  17. i vote for #3. having mostly green really makes the black ribs/ x-braces stand out. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  18. california pizza kitchen- sicilian and ibc cream soda. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  19. my aff first jump course took about 6hrs. i hope to never stop learning about skydiving be it in the air or on the ground. blue skies! diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  20. shamrock could win if his anger and hatred for ortiz can carry him. otherwise, imo, he's like so many other athletes who stick around too long past thier prime. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  21. drinks- tequila shots or jager bombs. drinking games- circle of death or speed quarters. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  22. thanks. when i learn to pack i'll be sure to have some $, some beer, and to spring for lunch/ dinner. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  23. during the debrief of my last jump (lvl 8) my coach was going over things to start thinking about doing for my proficiency card. he mentioned that i'll need to learn how to pack and that i may need to give who i get to teach me some money. but i forgot to ask how much. so how much should i expect to be asked for by or to offer to give who i get to teach me to pack? just trying to get a ballpark figure. thanks diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  24. they're going good. now that my student jumps are cheaper i can afford to go 2-3 times a month so i should have my A by dec. or only have a few jumps to finish it up in jan. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  25. if a server brings my food to me, keeps my drink full and takes the plates away at the end, i tip according to the service. i also tip bartenders and pool hall/ night club servers. if that isn't the case i consider it fast food and don't tip. what's next, a tip jar by the drive up window? diamonds are a dawgs best friend
