  1. Knew a guy in Oregon his dz nickname was Butt juice He thought he had a gas stinker on the climb to altitude he let it rip with gusto. See the dudes nickname what he thought was going to be a gas was actually in a liquid form but still a stinker One Jump Wonder
  2. Hi The reason you dont get it is because you choose not to.
  3. USPA offers a lot of great benefits. But health insurance isnt one of them. Yet I had to sell my soul for 25 yrs to get my bride and I, some kickass unaffordable health insurance. Even with that you have to find a Dr you have confidence in. Thats the real challenge. Have you checked on the status of the new federal health insurance program, that may or may not get thru congress in your lifetime. I dont have a clue how young you are but I think if your parents have health insurance and you are still in college you may be able to get coverage under their family plan. Google is your friend

    Thats your opinion the swimming pool in MO is a private business just like Lake Wales. They both have the right to refuse service to anyone. Nothing personal. If ten peeps leave because their offended by one customers tattoo or swim suit. What are the business people supposed to do? Offer the lady some duct tape to cover whatever offended them or their customers. Less important what would the expert of all things women say? You remember the dude the one and only #2 that the mods flushed down the toilet to get rid of Now you all get to deal with the Joey types. One Jump Wonder

    Hi ryoder You know the Shah died back in the day when jimmy carter was president. Remember the my enemy's enemy is my friend philosophy.We made a deal with the devil and paid the price. But if your talking about #2 (baby bathroom talk) personally I think he was a second rate a hole. Why did it take so long to flush #2 down the toilet where he belonged? I'm guessing dz.com needed the bean count, thats why it took a executive committee meeting to flush him down the toilet. The only part I found interesting about #2 was when he would start whining to the mods because everyone was picking on poor little #2 and the mods wouldn't step in. The little shit could dish it out, but when it was his turn to be in the barrel he went crying like a little girl to the mods. FWIW engineers are a dime a dozen, domestic engrs train engr1
  6. There are plenty nice ladies out there, but the odds are stacked against you due to all your Dz time. IOW your looking for love in the wrong place. I went to the grocery store the other day, i was the odds for meeting a keeper are a lot better, and imo the women in the real world are a lot nicer, have a better attitude, look and smell nicer etc etc than the sky chickies at the dz. At the Dz The queen bees get to pick and choose because the odds are in their favor and they know it. R. One Jump Wonder
  7. My father in law was a tail gunner on B 17, only kid on the plane to make it out alive when they got shot down over italy. Thats one survior out of 10. The war was still on so the poor kid had to suck it up and find a new crew to fly with. He passed away 11 years ago and now my mother in law is on her way for the final journey to hook up with her husband. Whats this sob story got to do with skydiving history? Rumor is that father in law got to keep his silk parachute from his one and only jump. Some nice italian ladies offered to make the canopy into a bed spread. According to the famioy legend the nice ladies took the canopy apart thread by thread and dyed them, different colors and wove the colored silk threads into a tapestry. Anyone hear about this being done? Or remember seeing one.? I haven't actually seen the bedspread if it exists. But my wife is the only one in her family immediate family thats interested so if it exists she gets the silk canopy that saved her dads butt on his first and last jump. First jump: no tandem, no AFF, no static line, no canopy course, just a shot up B17 due to a bunch of german mcnastys and their fighter planes, exit exit exit. BTW don't forget your rig on the way out We don't have any kids but if the canopy exists we'll pass it on to another member in my wifes family that she thinks won't make what I consider the family heirloom into a car cover.

  8. Hi norm Couldn't keep the dogs inside a reguler fence. Dog catcher was suggested electric fence Basically if the dog can get there head under the fence they can push and pull the rest of their body thru. The electric fence almost worked like a charm. As soon as we turned the juice on the male hiked his leg and peed on the fence. We could hear the yelp in the house.
  9. Hi Dude I dont think the grocery store will go out of business if you take your business across the street. There's shoppers from across the street after you pull your entitled atitude that will take your place at the store you just left in a huff. What makes you think that your better than a person that works a real job running a cahier in a grocery store.Or bags groceries to support their family or work their way thru college Do you think people think your important because your on your cell all the time. Your only fooling yourself. Don't you know that everyone around you can hear your bs cell phone conversation. Sometimes when a person like you interrupts my private space with your cell phone bs. I'll say something like Payback is a bitch isn't it. One Jump Wonder
  10. Hi Mr T Very nice as usual. But...... Dude your not jumping enough go pros. Looks like you could use at least 2 or three more on the jump. One camera aimed at your mug. So we know its realy you. The others your the pro, and your a big dude. Besides the flag, smoke, etc there has to be some room left for a couple more go pros. What could go wrong The Joey types will try and do it. A lot of equipment gets misplaced on the way to the morgue and the wuffos may be the ones that accidently walked off with the Joey types go pro when they accidently hurt, maim or kill themselves.

    Hi AJ Be gentle with the folks from Missouri, my boss was born and raised there. Factoids from living in the area for 15 -20 Yrs Independence MO is located approx 20 mi east from KCMO. And the home town of Mr Truman the US pres that ordered the dropping of the A bomb close to the end of WW2 . Independence is the home base of one of the mormem group's the RLDS or something. Their group believes that independence is ground zero for the rapture and the big guy from Up stairs will appear and to gather up his flock of true believers to take themto heaven and leave the rest of us non believers behind.
  13. Hi Pops Thanks for the link. Great video, imo academy award material, someone is a genius. LMAO thru the whole video. Could be required viewing for all students, and maybe safety day. Have a happy
  14. Hi Jep Now you know what all the generations before us felt like every time there was a new gizmo that people think they have to get before they know how to use them. I admit even though I don't own a cell, it can be a valuable tool if used correctly. And I find the lack of cell phone etiquette A few yrs ago a lady was interviewing for a job, and her cell phone went off.The job applicant answers her phone has a conversation with some one while the interviewer is waiting for the job applicant to get off the phone. The job applicant didn't get the job I asked my dentist if he has patients answering their phones while he's working on their mouth. Yep. Whats the dentist going to do turn some business away over a patient that is hooked to texting. Zep sorry to tell you this. But your getting older the world isn't going crazy. Its the new normal. Resistance is futile, you can either accept the new normal, or do what some old farts do and just sit back and watch the show OTOH the dude holding up the queue, what was stopping all the people waiting behind the gent from telling him to get off the phone he's holding up the line. Sometimes the cells are a necessity, but not to the degree that peeps have to have them 24/7. The value of the cell mkt is priceless its not going to go away, But as individuals we dont have to accept poor manners. Someone answers their cell in my presence when I'm talking, without a apology first. I'm gone.
  15. Sounds to creepy at my advanced age. Can't run fast enough. I was so impressed that I couldn't find the case of green bottles and had to ask the nice lady for some help finding the brand I coulnt do without. Question? If a lady isn't carrying a purse, and is wearing a dress without pockets, are boobies/bra, s a commen carrying place? I don't have a cell phone, wo knows I may have to borrow one I want to be sure and borrow a phone from the right person. Someone else butt cheek, back pocket cell phone, never tried it, sounds nasty. But a boobie bra cell phone sounds like a more attractive alternative. I may have to apply for a govt grant and conduct a cleavage survey to determine how commen this practice is. I'm actually quite concerned about the potential adverse health effects due to the close proximity between the boobies and the cell phones. If anyone else wants to do their own independent survey go for it. We can compare notes and everyone will get credit for their dedicated hard work. Who meI'm just looking for a cell phone that I can borrow so I can call 911 One Jump Wonder
  16. Hi I considered using a subject of Boobies and beer for obvious reasons but to keep from getting confused i decided to post in chronological order. Weathers been in the 80s and I've been whining for three days for a cold green bottle. Decide to man up go to town and buy a cold case. We head down the beer aisle of the air conditioned supermarket and get distracted by a nice lady walking toward us in a low cut dress suited for the weather What a dress outstanding colors , the top had some kind of a split in the front, with the corners folded outwards. Tastefull qty of cleavage for her age. I'm trying to play it looking for cold green bottles and the local boobies. What does all this have to do with cell phones.? The nice young lady got a text and had the phone parked next to one of her boobs. Not to self, drink more beer , get into town more on warm days. I don't have a cell phone but if I need to borrow one, I think I know where to ask and would need directions. R One Jump Wonder

    OMFG water bill

    Usually, but we had 40 consecutive days without rain last summer. I think it was a record. It's hot and sunny here now, has been since Friday. Damn, I bought a portable AC unit straight off the pallet this morning at Home Depot. The 2 people ahead of me and the one guy behind me were getting the same damn thing. Hi John Thats one of the challenges of being retired. After a fun weekend at the dz, you don't get to go back to I bought one of those window AC units at the pumpkin patch aka home depot Two heat events ago. Its still sitting in the closet never used. A walk out basement is 15 degree cooler than the upstairs level. This year we are still digging out the fans, from summers past. If it ever gets hot enough to install the window AC that I have sitting in my closet I will move to a higher elevation. One summer we bought a portable AC unit at home depot. Took it back in two days for a refund. Bad design the portable AC was on wheels and could be relocated from room to room. The net effect was we were actually adding heat to the room. All you had to do was plug the AC unit in the nearest outlet and stick the uninsulated plastic exhaust hose out the window.. It reminded me of the joke about sitting in front of the fridge with with the door open thinking your going to get cooler. Wanna swap a unused window ac unit for some of your lawn tools Think cool R.

  22. That clearly has long since become irrelevant. She has made this into her own personal feud; and feuds generally are not so much over issues as they are over personalities, which is why they generally never stop - until somebody dies. Or they run out of money
