  1. Yopur not looking well Brent, you need to get some colour in your cheeks, the only solution is to take the rig to the rigger right now......... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  2. Worlds only skydiving siamese twins doing what they love the most. Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  3. For sure Steve1, you don't want a funnel. As you prolly know its lauch, break off dump, hardly a skydive at all.....But if you trust your compadres, and everyone is cool n groovy, it can be done safely.......

  4. Poor unhappy guy.....the least he could have done was to offer a free load to some local jumpers, that might have cheerd him up a little...... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  5. "How 'bout a big pot of haggis......A Scottish dish consisting of a mixture of the minced heart, lungs, and liver of a sheep or calf mixed with suet, onions, oatmeal, and seasonings and boiled in the stomach of the slaughtered animal." Fair faw yer honest sauncy face, Great chieftain o the pudding race, Abin them aw ye take yer place, Painch, tripe, and thairm. Weel are ye wordy o a grace, As langs my airm..... To a Haggis by Robert Burns....there's more but I can't remember it Oh stop it man, your making me homesick, besides I've tried and teh customs guys don't like you bringing it in...... Here's a better solution....... Go to Quizno's, get a pile of sandwiches, chuck some beer into the cooler and get your family to meet you at the beach..... Nothing better than jumping into your own party.... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  6. "Don't let my sister (Kelley Frederickson)get too drunk " That'll be Kelleyadai, I've just been chatting with her about JFTC fund raising... I'll look out for her, and make sure these cowboys don't get too rowdy..... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  7. "to never fly above or below a group of freeflyers" Same thing aplies to RW....... My tuppence worth, she should have gone on her back, not her belly, and as Trey said, never get directly above or below a formation. If you are on your back, its easy to target your relative ascent and hopefully avoid any drama. However I believe in the benefits of a blame free debrief, and therefore was there any pre dive planning discussion etc.........

  8. My window looks out towards Spaceland (about 30 miles away) from the Junction of highway 6, and Interstate 10 (Houstonites will know where this is). The cars and trucks whizz (when the Interstate isn't grid locked) past. Some are going Florida, some are going to California. Sometimes I feel like chucking it in here, and joining them.......But which way to go, east or west, thats the problem that confounds me, so I normally just head south to hang with the good folks. Mebbe manana Gemini..... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  9. Some people get real scared in the door, it helps if they hold onto each other then jump out, those grippers things help to save you from being pinched too hard by terrified RWers............. But the guy on my left open accordian would be able to tell you more about them, he is my aerial outfitter - Rob Colpus of Symbiosis Suits, and legendary sector captain for world teams and huge ways....He delivers suits in less than 83 days..guaranteed...

  10. Evidence.......I found this on a site from one of my old camera flying buddies, see the balloon freaks thread for more stunning shots. Thats me in the purple and white frap hat on a training dive for Brit100 a couple of years ago..... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  11. C'mon down Jess, you didn't have enough time to be really mean to me at San Marcos, and I need to give you a serious geography lesson . Not sure, but I think the CASA will be at Spacey the following day...... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  12. "I can see it now. 20 people show up and drink 4682 gallons of beer......" At long last, a challenge worthy of my talents... Clay, you would really, really, really, like this bar . The last time I was there my freind and I were casually downing a few cool ones when we were accosted by a gaggle of lingerie clad hotties, who simply 'loved our accents'..... Repeat after me.. Och aye the noo..... You can take our women, but ye'll never take our FREEDOM.... Captain, its the warp coar, she'll no tak much more oh this....

  13. Aha, confusion.. No harm done then. "cielos azules y cerveza fría" Is that Hispanic for Muckle bue yins, an caul ale tae ye... It is good to talk and exchange opinions, I'm sorry if anything I said pissed you off. The offer of a beer is still on.

  14. "But seeing as how shite Scotland have been at rugby and football lately I tend to keep that quiet! " I hear you brother, I hear you, but at least we recognise the fact that we are shite and don't enter every comp with the attitude that just cos we won something back in 1966 (by cheating no less) we will automatically win everything else....We are good at drinking, partying and skydiving though, if that's at all relevant. BTW my home town of Arbroath still has the record for defeating a team in a soccer cup match...36-0 against Bon Accord (Aberdeen) which I try and remind my Aberdonian hosts about hehehe.... Last time I was in NZ the tri nations tourney was on so I sported my prized Springbocks top to most of the pub- match watching sessions. They didn't really see my sense of humour and I barely escaped with my life. Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  15. Woohoo....I even know which pub this is, cyall there.... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  16. No need to apologise Will, I mistakenly assumed you were one of my Southern neighbours...my bad. "Until that time I intend to be very lippy regarding both the French and English football teams..." In which case I shall happily join you in the chorus of abuse especially against our Auld Enemy, aka your hosts, the despised Guffys. I'm currently adorning my office in light blue and white, just to upset the many English guys that I work with..... "I came here for the weather! " Get some therapy dude...rolling on the floor guffawing my erse aff...... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  17. "Boy, this must be soooo humiliating for you and I am absolutely loving it!!! " My my, bold words from an Englishman who's team are about the face the feared old enemy, ie not Germany, or Scotland, but those no good, low down, cheating Argies.... What's hispanic for "Get stuck intae them...." Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  18. "Just someone ordered it and did not pick up then it was sold for half the price a couple of months later" Inspired idea sir!!! Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  19. I particularly like the trebuchet series, with the pig, and the piano under malfunctioning s/lines ROFLMAO........ Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  20. Hey Sarge whassuup?.... Like I said these are personal "rules", and everyones view on this is different....As long as we have good reasons for our 'rules' and stick to them, they are nearly all valid. Lowest I've gotten out thru choice and hit the hackey is 1400.....I'm comfortable at anything above 2000, and have the "always faithful" guardian angel woken up above 2500. I know guys that have hundreds if not thousands of Hop n Pops from 2200---static line despatch altitude for rounds in the UK.....In my less than sensible past I've launched 4 ways from under 2500......

  21. "Drunk yobos on pogo sticks trying to root roos?" I was at San Marcos a few weeks back, first time (yeah I know I bought some) there so was strolling up to manifest and noticed the usual "No dogs' signs everywhere. Fair 'nuff thinks I, I clock and nod a hi to some of the Gravity Rat dudes, then recognise Snowhite lounging around topping up his impressive suntan. I have to double take cos the geeza sat next to him has a freakin wallaby on a lead......Well the sign said no dogs....

  22. And there's more... here and here And here And theres a free pull up to the first person to spot a rare snap of a Nacmac........Enjoy them, if you like the pics don't be afraid to order some from Swardy, he does a really nice job and they blow up well. I have some of his adorning my 'studio' back in dear old blighty..... Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  23. Thats coz they're in white today.... Allez les blancs???? this top secret report just in from our agents in the far east..... "Location: Enemy Base Camp, somewhere in the far East. All going well. Of the original mission I have accomplished: 1)Closure of Wembley - they are now homeless with no solution in sight. 2)Loss of 2006 World Cup to Germany. 3)Installation of foreign coach - was going to be Fergie but he could'nt bring himself to do it even for a laugh. Sven agreed on condition he was allowed to reclaim all blonde Swedish weather forecasters from the barbarians. Agent Sven performing remarkably, introducing long ball game just before World Cup. We should put them back 10 years by the end of Nigeria match. 4)Beckham fooled into thinking he had an injury we got Fergie to show him an x-ray swiped from Glasgow Southern General and told him it was his foot and to stop training. This worked so well we used same x-ray for Neville and Murphy. 5)Took under 21 team away from Peter Taylor who had them playing well and gave it to Howard Wilkinson. That nearly compromised my cover as it was too obvious, so hired next best thing - David Platt. 6)Our German friends agreed to take a dive in Munich so as to reinforce unwarranted superiority complex - avoiding awkward questions after Greece/ Holland/Italy games. Now showing real form against Saudi Arabia. 7)Sven secretly signed a three year deal with Swedish FA in April and is in fact managing their team at the World Cup. 8)Fergie has played Veron out of position all year to disguise his real talent until Friday. 9)I expect to complete mission by July 2002 when Sven takes Ulrika back to Sweden, media get on the back of all foreign coaches and insist on an Englishman. I will then give the job to Gazza before returning to God's country. Alba Gu Brath Agent Crozier" Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  24. "You do a lo alt. hop & pop with a Cypres on? Why?" I don't, sorry to confuse you. I've been on the cessna (going up for a cloudbase check) with my Cypres on and stayed in the plane. Own rules....cypres on...don't get out below 2500 Cypres off.....well lets just see what we get... BTW I jump a slow opening spectre Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
  25. As ever I can't go cos I'm firewalled out, so I'll settle for the real thing. thassal... manana peeps. Cya D GR# 37 Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
