Married men do you refer to your wife as "the old lady"
Butters replied to shortyj's topic in The Bonfire
That's what an "old lady" would say. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch -
Yes, I know. However, the context of this thread is about the bridle, PC, and handle (not main) and thus packing method in this thread refers to the bridle, PC, and handle (not the main). I'm still under the impression that a heavy handle, holding onto the handle, or weak throw is more likely to be the cause of an entanglement. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Depends on if they get anything other than a USPA membership (like a logbook, googles, etc...). "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

High Winds: Putting theory into practice
Butters replied to FlyingBlueJay's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Their is a difference between high winds and high gusts. A downwind landing is not an emergency. People practice downwind landings in preparation for an emergency situation (landing out, avoiding an obstacle, etc...) where they might be forced to. That's not stupid. "That looks dangerous."

How about people trade in their vehicles that get less than 20 miles per gallon for vehicles that get greater than 30 miles per gallon? Just an idea ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Raising our kids in religion. I'm anti, she's pro
Butters replied to Twoply's topic in Speakers Corner
Agreed. I think the damage occurs when the child grows older and must determine reality from fantasy while dealing with pressures to conform ... PS: At least when a child grows older they are told that the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, etc... aren't real. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch -
Are those knots most likely due to a particular packing method? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch
-
I agree. However, the handle does appear to matter ... Provided the handle acts as a snag point, yes.... howver, I have also seen several examples of bridles slipknotted around the middle of pc's...so it appears to be a 'luck of the draw' issue, at least to me. But is that because of the packing method or a heavy handle allowing the bridle to rise above the PC and form a loop that the PC passes through? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

How is this a packing issue? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Are you sure it's because you're a skygod and not because of elephantiasis? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

This is not a packing issue. This issue is caused by a heavy handle or holding onto the handle for an extended period of time while deploying causing the bridle to rise above the handle and form a loop that the handle then passes through ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Have you checked the user name of the recent threads started? Your user name is "skr" and all the user names start with "skr". Looks like a bug ... "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

By studying the psychology of the individual (and country) and the economic dependence of the country. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Nope, what I am claiming is that we need to distinguish between those who will change and those who won't change and focus are efforts on those who will. If the very best you can do lately is claim "if you don't agree with me than you must belong to the right" then you are in trouble indeed. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Really mature. We know what they stand for and they aren't changing (even if we talk to them). They know what we stand for and we aren't changing (even if they talk to us). Thus, we don't have to talk to them (or kill them) until they do something. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Are you trying to prove his point? After all, Rumsfeld talked to Saddam and Saddam still committed genocide. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch
