Which DZ`s in your state accept Skyride?
Thanatos340 replied to Thanatos340's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
What's up with all of these California DZ's who take Skyride? Pure speculation here but I would guess once one DZ starts taking them in an Area (yes, I know California is a HUGE Area but basically it breaks down to Nor-cal (SF and the bay area) and So-Cal (LA and San Diego Area), The others start thinking if they dont they will loose business. -

Conduct during hoisting, lowering or passing of flag During the ceremony of hoisting or lowering the flag or when the flag is passing in a parade or in review, all persons present except those in uniform should face the flag and stand at attention with the right hand over the heart. Those present in uniform should render the military salute. When not in uniform, men should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Aliens should stand at attention. The salute to the flag in a moving column should be rendered at the moment the flag passes

The sad reality is that "Dads" are pretty few and far between in todays world.

Have you ever left your ATM card in the machine?
Thanatos340 replied to skymama's topic in The Bonfire
Yep. went out to eat with a bunch of jumpers, Walked across the parking lot to get some cash, Standing there chatting away, get cash, Tell one more stupid Joke, ATM Beeps a few times, And watch as the card is sucked back into the machine never to be seen again. Called the BAnk that the ATM belonged to the next morning and they tell me they destroy all cards that the machine eats. Call my bank to get a new one. -

Which DZ`s in your state accept Skyride?
Thanatos340 replied to Thanatos340's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Thanks. Everyone please make CERTIAN before you add any DZ to the list. I cant think of anything worse to say about a DZ than calling them a Skyride Affiliate. It would help greatly if people would Take 1 state, Confirm each Dropzone in that State and then post or PM the results. I will update the list later this evening and then make updates about once a week after that. In the mean time, PLEASE keep verified information coming. We may have Tee shirts printed up when the list is complete that will list the Skyride Affiliate Dropzones. That way people can wear it to Boogies and the DZ so that jumpers that do not come here can learn who is helping Skyride. -
Which DZ`s in your state accept Skyride?
Thanatos340 replied to Thanatos340's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
In an effort to keep this simple and unconfusing (And not have the same list reposted 250 times) lets try to keep reposting of the list to a minimum. I have been getting tons of PMs and updating as I can. People that helped out by updating the list earlier please delete your post if all the information you added is correctly reflected in the latest List. this should help cut down on Bandwidth and other issues as we move forward with putting together this list of DZ`s that do and do NOT accept Skyride. If anyone has any suggestions on how we can do this and keep it simple, I am all ears. -

Which DZ`s in your state accept Skyride?
Thanatos340 replied to Thanatos340's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
It would be great if someone had time (And the cell Phone minutes) to call all the DZ`s in the US and ask "Do you accept Skyride Certificates" and post the results. If Someone form each State would call the DZ`s in that state and posts the results. PLEASE make sure you know for certain before adding any DZ to the List. Please list the DZ Name, Location and Do they accept Skyride. Please keep all commentary and opinion on Skyride in on of the other Skyride already going. DZ Name, Location, Accepts Skyride. Anyone else want to add their State? Please do not post "I think they do or do not." Verify your information. Edited by slotperfect: Direct link to the list -
If the Mods do not mind, I am going to start a separate Thread in General Skydiving for this information. Having a central List of Dropzones that do and do not accept Skyride could be very helpful.

It would be great if someone had time (And the cell Phone minutes) to call all the DZ`s in the US and ask "Do you accept Skyride Certificates" and post the ones that say yes. then Jumps can make thier own decision if they are willing to support those Dropzone with thier business. Maybe start a Thread and Somaone for each State call the DZ`s in that state and posts the results. DZ Name, Location, Accepts Skyride. Georgia Skydive Atlanta, Thomaston, NO! Skydive the Farm, Rockmart, NO! Atlanta Skydiving Center, Cedartown, YES! (Owned by the same people that own Skyride) I know of no other Dropzones currently operating in this state. Anyone else want to add their State?

Live crickets dont taste so bad (ie.. Thing we do for our Children)
Thanatos340 replied to Thanatos340's topic in The Bonfire
Ok.. My extensive negotiations with the young one for the rights to said video have proven fruitless. She has the Video on her cell phone but cant get t off. her mom doesn’t think the $1k a month I pay her is enough to spring for Text/Picture/Video mail for our daughter so she cant text it to me and she cant down load it because it is cingular and they don’t let you download YOUR video from YOUR phone unless you pay them an extra $5 a month (Which her mom will not spring for and my offers of I will pay it didn’t cut it either) Anyway, My daughter is gong to bring me her cell phone on Sunday with the video and I will see it there is someway I can get the video off it. (Both the dance and the Cricket eating are there she assures me.) -
I would never waste time on such a silly game.

Are you even going to bother trying to respnd to this? Or will you just continue to pretend you dont now these things?

What part of "You work for thieves" don’t you get?? Here are a few FACTS for you. Your employer stole the Intellectual Property (Photos and entire web sites) of several Skydivers for use in their Fraudulent and Deceptive web sites. Your employer Stole the Phone number of recently decease DZO. Your employer paid Local Jumpers to go plaster Bumper stickers all over town and then had their own employee arrested for doing exactly what they paid them to do once the local cities complained. (You might want to pay close attention to that one. Who do you think they will throw under the bus when the shit finally does hit the fan? Hope you have a good lawyer) Your employer has 100`s of intentionally deceptive web sites that are full of lies. All of your business comes from those Lies. Your employer is known for lying repeatedly to customers when they call. Current litigation that I know of that your employer is involved in: 1)Being sued by SDA for their fraudulent web sites. 2) Suing the USPA because the USPA Kicked them out for their fraudulent Business practices. 3) Being sued by the Georgia Consumer Affairs Office for their Deceptive and fraudulent business practices. Your employer has been "exposed" by at least 3 different news organizations in 3 different states for their fraudulent and deceptive business practices. Several other states are considering action as well. If you cant look at that and realize that you do in fact work for thieves that honest people do not wish to associate with, then you are part of the PROBLEM.

in that case, I guess I must leave.
