So, the fact that it's cold in the winter proves there's no global warming? Yeah, right. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!) AA #2069 ASA#33 POPS#8808 Swooo 1717

Just replace the whole thing. If the kill line has worn that much, it's probably time. You can spen a little money a bunch of times or a little more once. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

Don't worry, you can get hammered on the DZ. They have a very fine bar there.

Being in the fire dept. I see, every year, like clockwork, the holiday tree fires. These fire happen every year, so often that they are sometimes the object of station pools. These fires are even more devastating than the other types of accidental fires that happen all the time. They stain the holiday season, sometimes forever, in the minds of children who survive them and often kill loved ones at a period of emotional highs. The real tragedy is that these types of fires are totally preventable. Why anyone would intentionally build what amounts to a bonfire in their living room is beyond me.

The cause of your slider hanging up is your chest strap being too tight. The end cells can be cleared by pumping the rear risers (before unstowing the brakes). Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

I am so unlike anyone else in my family that I often wonder whether I came from another planet or did they? I think that they are from some far away place because they don't jump, but I could be wrong. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

100, 500, 1000. Every 1000 after. So let it be written, so let it be done.

You are seeing the combination of three actors: 1. Hypoxia 2. Exertion 3. A combination of arousal and anxiety. As altitude increases, so does heart rate. This is independent of any other factors and has to do with the ability of the heart to provide the tissues with sufficient oxygen to maintain adequate perfusion. Skydiving, like other sports is not a sedentary activity. Heart rate increases as workload increases. Your gear is heavy, you have to climb into and out of the plane, seating in the plane is rarely very comfortable, and the activity on a jump is above resting levels. Physiologically, arousal and anxiety are indistinguishable. Both will have the effect of increasing heart rate. Even thought you may be consciously calm, your subconscious is doing loops. We are psychologically hard wired to refrain from jumping from high places. We can override this innate fear and jump anyway. The brain, however, doesn't buy it and gets anxious anyway. That and the conscious arousal of participating in an enjoyable event will have the effect of increasing heart rate. You are, in fact, burning fat while skydiving. BUT the activity level is not sustained long enough on any given jump to produce the effect of a given bout of specific exercise. In order to observe an exercise effect, the activity must have three characteristics: 1. It must be rhythmic 2. it must be repetitive 3. It must be sustained. The cellular mechanisms for fat metabolism do not become fully activated until the activity is in progress for approximately one hour. If you want to lose weight, go to the gym.

I saw it in Tampa (we were weathered out in Z-hills). It was unbelievably cool. I was thinking if I had seen that while going through A&P 1&2 that I would have understood much more and much easier than I did. As for the bodies being displayed, they were done with taste and dignity. Besides, what good is a display if it does not convey some sort of relationship to actual life? Go see it, it's cool.

Why do you say that? Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!) AA #2069 ASA#33 POPS#8808 Swooo 1717

So, I'm thinking of going to SDSU. Has anyone been there or know how good a place it is? Also, what's the jump scene like out there? I've been on skydive San Diego's web site and it seems cool. But what about those santa anna winds and the weather in general for jumping? I hear that the weather in the are is generally good, but that is from whuffos who don't generally what good weather is vs good weather for jumping. So, fellow jumpers, what's it really like out there? Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.

I didn't vote because there comes a time when voting for the lesser of two evils is no longer acceptable. Neither candidate for governor of Maryland is acceptable. Neither are the candidates for Senator. The local candidates are either unopposed or have only token opposition. My political interests are not represented by either party or candidate. So, I have absolutely no voice. I can't, in good conscious, allow this to continue. My only option is to drop out of the electoral process altogether and simply deal with whoever gets in. As I see it, I have no other choice. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!)

I have now been sober for 20 years. That's 7305 days, 631,152,000 seconds.

It is my sad duty to inform you that the bird is no longer with us. URRRRP.

I'm going to sit this one out. (This is the first time I've done this.) I simply CAN"T approve of either candidate for governor (State of Maryland), or either candidate for senate (One's an insider, the other is bought and paid for by the radical religious right.) and the local candidates are running unopposed. There is simply no way to make it work, so I'll sit back and let the rest of the electorate totally fuck things up and have a clear conscious, knowing that I have ZERO culpability in it. I didn't make the mess, I didn't contribute to its continuation and I had no option to remedy it. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...
