  6. So current DPH's that are coming are myself (Pimp Wench), Olympia (Pimp Wench), Jo, Etch and Bolas (Pimp Wench). We have at least one new initiate (sounds to me like he had fun corset shopping this weekend) and hopefully will be able to round up a few more. This is going to be a great weekend.

    Well, I successfully completed the coach course this weekend. Ended up having a blast. I'll admit I called PopsJumper a few names during my eval jump with him. But he had to have expected it when he gave me a no count exit and then just smiled and waved back at me as I tried to wave him off and tell him to pull. I got lucky in that just 2 hours after completing everythign and getting my proficiency card signed off I got to do my first official coach jump (yes, I know ). I think I was much more nervouse than my student even though he knew this was my first official coach jump. But I ended up really enjoying it and he did a great job. I can't wait to do more.
  8. Hey everyone. Some of you may have heard that Warren Cleary, an all around great person and skydiver, and a true staple at the Farm was injured during the Big Boy Pants Swoop Comp last Saturday. His medical bills I'm sure are very quickly piling up. For this reason we have decided that all charity money raised through donations and the raffel will go to him. We have to take care of our own. We are still not sure what his prognosis is. The Dr's won't really say anything until the swelling around his spinal cord goes down. If you are at all curious how he is doing here is a blog started by his mother to help keep everyone updated. http://warrenprogressreport.blogspot.com/ Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. He has an extremely long road ahead of him.

    Oh, Andy is your evaluator? Forget all those tricks I told you they would play, I didn't know HE would be your evaluator! He's one of them. I have a feeling I know a couple of the things he might try to pull on me. Hopefully I catch them or else I will NEVER hear the end of it from him.

    As you know, Andy, I'm taking the coach course this weekend and I am very excited about it. I waited until after I had 200 jumps to get it. Would I have liked to have gotten it sooner? Yes. Did I feel my skills were good enough to get it sooner? No. I'm still very nervous about the course. But I'm also excited at the thought of finally being able to help and jump with the new jumpers fresh off AFF. So many times I've wanted to jump with them but haven't been able to. Hopefully after this weekend I will be able to pass some of my knowledge and love for this sport on to them. I never liked the idea of coaches getting paid. Cover the slot? Yeah, that sounds fair. I'm looking forward to the first time I get paid simply by seeing a huge grin on a students face in the air. That will be payment enough for me.
  12. I've seen one successfully used at the Farm to cut off a shirt. All of the girls were quite greatful when it was done cause DAMN he was hot!!!! wasn't that the hot foreign swooper guy there last year right before skyfest? hehehe i remember him. i got to take him to 6 flags. I felt like I had a personal body guard. mmmm strong silent swooper type Yup...that would be him. All the girls just stood there and drooled after the hook knife had been taken to the front of his shirt. We were all quite happy.

  14. That's no way to represent the Dirty Pirate Hookers! You know we're all about class, sofistication and being conservative.
  15. Trouble? What trouble? We will be perfect angels who go to sleep by 9pm so we can be up bright and early the next day. We won't drink a sip of alcohol or touch a single boy. We will dress very conservitavely and not show any cleavage. And we absolutely will NOT be doing a DPH initiation jump with Kasch.

  17. I see a couple insurance premiems going up a cent or two after this one. http://autos.yahoo.com/news/million-dollar-fender-bender.html
  18. What kind of music service is it? Is it similar to Pandora and Slacker?
  19. "I need a ruffie and a condom!!!!" I know it wasn't being used as a pickup line, but when you don't know the backstory, and you hear a girl saying it, it kinda sounds like one.
  20. Apparently, I'm in the minority. ditto! what the hell! that must mean a very small portion of females are getting WAY WAY WAY more than their fair share! That makes 3 of us in the minority. It's not as easy for girls as guys would like to think it is.
  21. Happy Happy Birthday, Valinda!!! Have a great time at Prairie!!!
  22. I was given permission to post this anonymously for a fellow dz.commer. I guess someone is a bit shy.
  23. http://www.ielts.org/test_takers_information.aspx Has anyone ever had to do one of these tests? I have to do one for my Australia permanent resident application. I need to score an 8 out of a possible 9 in all 4 categories to get the points required for my specific visa. Wondering how much studying I am going to need to do Just make sure you don't put "eh" after everything.
