First Off.. A $30 Gear Rental Fee is NOT normal. This is something that Skyride started and unfortunately a few (VERY FEW) Legitimate Dropzones have started doing the same thing. It is very sad that Skyride is driving otherwise Honest businesses in to this sort of practice. As someone else explained.. Cross keys did this to compete with Skyride`s advertised prices so that customers could compare apples to apples. None the less, Two wrongs do not make a right. At almost every Dropzone in the County, Gear Rental is Included in the price of the Tandem. What is next?? A Tandem Master Fee?? An Airport Fee?? A Landing Area Fee?? All these things are REQUIRED to make a Tandem Skydive and therefore should be included in the Price of the Jump. Maybe you tell them you want to Jump but dont want the Gear!! If they wouldn’t let you Jump without it, Then it shouldn’t cost extra. It is part of the cost of the JUMP

HC40 vs HC42 and other First Camera Questions.
Thanatos340 replied to Thanatos340's topic in Photography and Video
I have spent the past couple days searching and reading everything I can in this forum. I am starting to put together my First Camera Helmet and still have a few Questions that I couldn’t find answers/opinions for using the search function. (Yes, I am aware that I should have atleast another 50 Jumps before I start Jumping Camera) 1. I have narrowed my Camera Choice down to either the HC40 or the HC42. Im finding HC40`s for around $390 and HC42`s for $460..( Good Prices??). Does the HC42 really have any extra useable features that make it worth the extra $70?? 2. I considered the PC109 but it seemed to be about $300 more everywhere I looked (Around $700). Am I missing something that would make the PC109 worth an extra $300? 3. Lens Choice. I Plan on using this setup to mainly Video friends Fun Jumps and eventually Coach Jumps once I get my rating. I am looking at getting the Diamond 0.3 or Stealth 0.5. Which would best general purpose all around Lens? 4. Helmet: I decided on a Rawa. So far it looks like Aerostore is the only place I can find online that stocks these Helmets. Anywhere else I should check? -

What is Foreign?? Honda and Toyotos made here is the US and Dodges Trucks are made in Mexico. I was working with a Company last week that makes Exhaust systems and Radiators for GM, Nissan, Mercedes and Honda. All parts made in the US and shipped to US assembly plants.

I have always felt the same way but I must admit the Retro thing was kinda nice in some cases. Reminded me of being young again and finding a stash of Penthouse. Back then it was all about the Bush. I still don’t like Hair in my Food, but a little variety is a nice thing when Coochie watching.

Tell The Finance Manager at the Dealership that he already Screwed you once, You will pass on a second opportunity. Go with the Credit Union. There are 3 Parts to Most Car Deals that the Dealership will Make money off of. 1. The price of the New Car you are Buying. (Never discuss Monthly payments with the Dealer. That is how they get you away from what is really important which is how much you actually PAYING of the car.) 2. Your Trade. The dealer will try to Get your Trade for next to nothing. The trade should be negotiated as a Separate Deal. One technique a dealer will use is to tell you they are giving you some inflated amount for your car and then they just TAG that extra money straight onto your new Car.) 3. The Financing. Dealers make a alot of money selling Financing. they get kick back from the companies that "Buy" your loan from them. It is always best to get your financing in order before you start Car Shopping. Get preapproved for a loan before you ever go to the dealership, Then if the Finance Manager can beat Your existing deal.. Go for it.)

When I was still DJing the Altanta Clubs (All Nude), The Girls would tan nude and then "Paint" Tan Lines on with make up.

NOOOoooo!! Not like the President.. As in like Furry Coochies! OK.. So last Friday Nights Great ATL Skydiver Strip Club Outing.. I made an interesting observation (In between trying to keep a certain Female DZ.commer from groping the strippers, Making sure that same DZ.commer had a shooter girl in her lap at all times, Finding another Burbon and Coke for a certain dirty Hippie, discussing pole tricks with RedHot and making Drunk Dials)... It seemed like BUSH is Back. What’s the deal?? I honestly haven’t surveyed as many pubic regions in the past few years as I probably would have liked too, But in the few that I was fortunate enough to get a closer look at.. I thought that Pubic hair had become a thing of the past. Now it seems that many of the entertainers going back to a more Al Natural state. Now don’t get me wrong.. This was a High Class Establishment and everything did appear to be well manicured... It was just well… more Bushy. Have I missed something?? Is Bush making a Come back??

I dont think a single Shooter girl ever got past without a ride in the Kele Lap (And they had LOTS of Shooter Girls) and we will not even talk about that quivering Lip. Everytime I came back to the table Kele was either getting a Table Dance or another Lap dance from a Shooter Girl.

Bill Booth on Skydive Radio next week
Thanatos340 replied to diverds's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Will he be answering any questions about the Incident in Atlanta and the Tandem Harness? (NO, I dont think that the incident was in any way related to the Harness But I am curious what his take is and if He is considering modifying the harness design as a result of that incident) -
Setup you account on Pokerstars. PM me your user name and I will see what I can do.

1-800 SKY RIDE STILL SCAMMING PEOPLE
Thanatos340 replied to Lazycreation's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Did you try calling the Dropzone directly and asking them if they are Jumping today?? Sometimes the weather really is bad (And that can mean Clear Skies but just to windy). Based on past history, Anything you hear from anyone associated with Skyride is highly questionable. Call the Dropzone directly and ask them 1. Do they really take Skyride and 2. What are the current weather conditions. Cut out the middle man, especially when the middle man is know for being dishonest. -
Glad it worked out for you. Pokerstars does have the best customer service in the business. Let the Smack talk Start Now!! I know there is one Fat British Suck-out Artist that am really looking forward to taking out. (Hey Skinny, How about a $20 Last Longer Side Bet??)

“Recently, I was honoured to be selected as a judge at a chilli cook-off. The third judge called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge’s table asking for directions to the Budweiser truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chilli wouldn’t be all that spicy and besides they told me I could have all the free beer during the tasting, so I accepted.” Here are the scorecards from the event: Chilli #1 (Mike’s Manic Mobster Monster Chilli) Judge #1 – A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick. Judge #2 – Nice, smooth tomato flavour. Very mild. Judge #3 – (Frank) Holy shit, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. It took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that’s the worst one, these Texans are crazy. Chilli # 2 (Arthur’s Afterburner Chilli) Judge #1 – Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang. Judge #2 – Exciting BBQ flavour, needs more peppers to be taken seriously. Judge #3 – (Frank) Keep this out of the reach of children. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich manoeuvre. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face. Chilli # 3 (Fred’s Famous Burn Down the Barn Chilli) Judge #1 – Excellent firehouse chilli. Great kick. Needs more beans. Judge #2 – A bean less chilli, a bit salty, good use of peppers. Judge #3 – (Frank) Call the EPA. I’ve located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everybody knows the routine by now. Get me some more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I’m getting shit-faced from all the beer. Chilli # 4 (Bubba’s Black Magic) Judge # 1 – Black bean chilli with almost no spice. Disappointing. Judge # 2 – Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chilli. Judge # 3 – I felt something scrape across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the barmaid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-lb lady is starting to look HOT…just like this nuclear waste I’m eating! Is chilli an aphrodisiac? Chilli # 5 (Linda’s Legal Lip Remover) Judge # 1 – Meaty, strong chilli. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive. Judge # 2 – Chilli using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement. Judge # 3 – My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chilli had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I’m burning my lips off. It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw those rednecks! Chilli # 6 (Vera’s Very Vegetarian Variety) Judge # 1 – Thin, yet bold vegetarian variety chilli. Good balance of spices and peppers. Judge # 2 – The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions and garlic. Superb. Judge # 3 – I shat myself when I farted and I’m worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. She must be kinkier than I thought. Can’t feel my lips any more. I need to wipe my Ass with a snow cone. Chilli # 7 (Susan’s Screaming Sensation Chilli) Judge # 1 – A mediocre chilli with too much reliance on canned peppers. Judge # 2 – Ho Hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chilli peppers at the last moment. I should note that I am worried about Judge # 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably. Judge #3 – (Frank). You could place a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn’t feel a thing. I’ve lost the sight in one eye and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chilli, which slid out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava-like shit which matches my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they’ll know what killed me. I’ve decided to stop breathing, it’s too painful. Screw it; I’m not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I’ll just suck it in through the four inch hole in my stomach. Chilli # 8 (Tommy’s Toe-nail Curling Chilli) Judge # 1 – The perfect ending, this is a nice blended chilli. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence. Judge # 2 –This final entry is a good, balanced chilli. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge # 3 passed out, fell over and pulled the chilli pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he’s going to make it. Poor Dude, wonder how he’d have reacted to a really hot chilli?

The Next Great ATL Skydiver Strip Club Outing!!
Thanatos340 replied to Thanatos340's topic in The Bonfire
Actually.. That is exactly what happened on the Fetish Club Outing.. About half of us had paid the cover and almost got inside when They tossed out one of us before they even finished paying the cover. It seems that they felt he was too intoxicated to come into thier club.
