Another good one is to take a blow dryer and a bottle of talcum or baby powder. Run a line of powder in front of the closed door to the victim's office. Blow the powder under the door with the dryer. This creates a fine dust that permeates EVERYTHING and takes weeks to settle out. Good if you aren't going to be there any longer. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

Here's a good one for a locker. Take a full length locker, a 35 gallon trash bag, duct tape and a hose. Tape the bag open to all four surfaces of the locker. Spring the top of the door. Insert hose. Fill trash bag with water. Close top of locker after removing hose. Wait. They'll be wet from about the chest on down. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

Does your life insurance policy include skydiving?

No. Only PD has the pack jobs recorded on the label. It only has pack jobs, not any other info( e.g., repair, mods, etc...). Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

Yep, Israel would not exist of not for the US. Without us, Egypt, Syria and Jordan would have destroyed Israel long ago. And your point would be? Nope, Israel and Iran will always be at each others throats. RIght, the region is even less stable than it was before. Neat trick. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

With Iraq disabled, Iran will have no interest in Iraq, Syria will, but they will be tied up with supporting HAMAS in Israel for the near future. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

Are you pro-life and support oral contraceptives?

The same sort of thing happened to me. When I first got in the Fire Dept. I swore that I'd be loyal to the end and not retire until I have to. Now, I'm counting days (3 years 4 months exactly from today). Middle aged burn out is a bitch. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

It doesn't matter whether or not you think abortion is OK. You only get to make that decision for yourself. If you are against abortion, don't have one. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

All of which will happen anyway. We will not be able, no matter how long we stay, to set up a stable government that will have the needed power to resist the regional threats. The Shia and Sunni will untie to form another anti western Islamic theocracy. The region has been permanently destabilized. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

No genocide yet, but that will surely happen when we leave. The religious extremeists are the only power capable of filling the power vacuum that will occur when we leave. The entire operation will result in the creation of another anti-western Islamic theocracy. Nothing can prevent that now. Saddam was bad and needed to go. But the cure in this case will be worse than the disease. We have succeeded in destabilizing the entire region. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

Things I've learned skydiving that have nothing to do with parachuting

College is unique because there is a readily available social component that is very hard to replicate out there in the real world. Much more hard work is needed to attain and maintain friends after school. Work is a poor substitute. More often than not, there is no common interests between co-workers. Add to this the vast amount of time that jumping consumes, (in particular, weekend time) and there is even less time for the whuffos in our lives. It is possible to get and keep new friends, but it takes a huge amount of work. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

Why do you think a floating pud will produce a two out scenario? If you dump your reserve due to a floating pud, your container will probably not open. The drag on the pud will not be sufficient under a reserve, or immediately after its deployment to activate the main. So your chances of a two out are unlikely. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

Dbox to Helmet attachment - screws, or rivets?
Tink1717 replied to skyfly's topic in Photography and Video
Are you using "pop" rivets or regular rivets? The trouble with pop rivets is that if you don't get them set exactly right, they can be a real pain to get out. I opt for screws, that way if I need to switch to a different position, I can do it with a minimum of fuss. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...
