Nope. Not gonna happen. The left has checked out, permanently. We are gone from the political landscape. It's gonna be decades before we come back. I just hope I'm around to see it.

The right will win in a landslide because the 45% of voters who vote left simply won't show up. Getting us on the left to ANYTHING en masse is like trying to herd cats. We simply don't participate. We have completely abdicated our position and forfeited our rights as a result. We might never recover. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

I think it will be a landslide for the right. The left is not organized, does not have 35,000 churches behind it and does not operate as a block. The left will loose, huge.

Most definitely he's still a bud. It's just that I hate losing friends to fear. Someone on this board has a sig line that reads: "The purpose of fear is to warn of danger, not to make you afraid". That's how I look at it. Also, although we all know that all are welcome at the DZ, experience shows that ex-jumpers and broken skydivers who aren't involved (e.g. riggers, manifesters, etc...) don't stick around very long. I know when I had a broken thumb last spring, the DZ was an extremely boring and frustrating place to be. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

I have no doubt that he is second guessing himself at this point. What I want is for him to see that BASE is a completely different animal than skydiving. He is right to be cautious after being bitten by the base animal, but he should consider skydiving a separate issue. I have seen, and lost, too many friends who became afraid after an accident. And really, I would fully support any decision he makes, but would always miss him and jumping with him. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

You may be able to get a license in another country, but will not be able to jump in the US until you reach the age of 18. You can thank the lawyers for this one.

That's why they invented the Pro Track.

A guy who is considering getting out of the sport? Here's the scenario: An accomplished jumper with over 500 jumps, takes up base jumping. He makes an error on a jump and winds up with a fairly serious injury. (Broken femur). He is expected to make a full recovery. He also states that he is considering getting out of all jumping based on this accident. I don't want him to substitute my judgement for his own but I think he is being rash. I think he is not considering that what happened on his BASE jump would likely never present itself on a skydive and that the two activities represent two very different sports. I know him to be a very capable jumper and competent canopy pilot. I want to say to him that he needs to look at this as a learning expirience and not to throw the baby out with the bath water. I have not voiced any of this to him. Suggestions? Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.
