  1. Hi Guy's/ Nice Lady Please stay on topic. Or the next time Amazon see's you she might pick you up again and again. Don't sweat this Jeann chick never met her , I've heard rumors about a very strong tall Amazon lady. Wuffo some of you skydivers have two names I'm old, confused can't spell etc. I wonder if Shah would like to get picked up by his dream girl Jeanne and then tell her no please no when his feet are two feet off the ground and his head feels it's going to pop of his neck, I can not tell a lie. Man this is a tough sport, at least with two tough women A&J. Where are all the tough men One Jump Wonder
  2. Hi KK I'm a offical card carrying asshole, got the T-shirt to prove it.
  3. Indeed. Wheres the pic? Hi folks I've been holding my breath for the pic. Really I am trust me. So I gotta type fast. Can we play "guess the general area game". before I pass out before the "pic' that doesn't exist doesn't get heeeer KC R..... One Jump Wonder
  4. Like you Jerry, in 1964 out 1968. Sparky Hello Gentlemen GOOD MORNING DZ.COM ( robin williams name that movie) Jerry and Sparky and the rest of you sweet young things. I'm still doing my independent research on The internet and there are lots of incorrect info. I know it's the internet but I'm still . There were lots of ways to dodge the draft without bugging out. All of my peers in the air force were draft dodgers. I'm a draft dodger and want credit for it One guy was only 17yo barely legal to drink when Johnny came marching home from the war. He was a very young confused draft dodger, but even he could find Air force. I can not tell a lie I only did 3 yr's and 9 month's 66-70. No I didn't bug out, desert, make excuses. Recieve the scarlet double letter DD. I did get a DD214 good as gold
  5. HI I was a REMF air force puke draft dodger etc. Never saw the "Letter you posted" Every hear the story from almost back in the day about the Stolen C-130. 1969 http://www.bing.com/search?q=Stolen+C130+mildenhall+england&FORM=HPNTDF&src=IE-SearchBox Damn the clicky thiing wouldn't work I'm old but you can see my search criteria. so if your interested do your own search. The crew chief stole the daamn airplane and didn't bring it back "Thats gov't property son do you know how long its going to pay for that bird" If you read the the results you'll see there were two versions of what happened to the bird. No doubt that we splashed him. Two much time away from his wife. The whole squadren was close to that point. Officers dancing on the bar in the O club wearing noting but foot gear Enlisted swine threatening to burn down the Enlisted swine club. Can we keep this quite (like mature adults) and see how much traffic we get on this lottery thing. I'm old, and If this thread ends up in SC I'm doomed, doomed I tell you I decline the wonderful opputunity to go there. I've tried my best to keep politics, guns etc out of the subject. It's part of the histroy we all shared when us old farts were "Yutes" I know unrealstic expectations R.I,P, One Jump Wonder
  6. Good morning Gentlemen. I'm so Old that I can't even remember they if they had a lottery. I just thought a classificaion# and registration number was all that was required. My first classification was 1SH. Anyone still remember their lottery number from almost back in the day and where they were when they learned "the number". We googled the subject last night they even had some news videos on Youtube. It was to late to get started. Damn I can read a hell of a lot faster than I can type, don't have to worry about spellings nazi's, grammer, proof reading or rambling R One Jump Wonder
  7. Hi MJ You cali dudes had some advantages over us hicks from the sticks in Ks/Mo. 3 state no problem with a car in one day but everything basicaly looked the same. In PNW, oregon BC etc I've heard if the sun is out and it's not raining.. Snow Skiing, jumping and boating is definatly doable. Due to our mild summer
  8. Hi HCS I guess you don't remember meeting me a LP. At my age with my Bod if I took off my cloth's everyone would go blind even without the bleach. The nicely groomed hair? Look at your avatar thats what I'm talking about.
  9. Hi R I like your taste in womens fashion. Lots of Fishnet is good but all fisnet is better.
  10. I've met several people that have, but didn't somebody do it in a month or some ridiculously low amount of time a few years ago? Hi Mr T Ridiculous
  11. Hi L&D Rosie is a very dear friend of mine, he helped me out of a tough situation in LP. A few yr back. Congrats to you and the new King of your castle Whats face book R.I.P. One Jump Wonder
  12. Hello nice lady Back on topic. Would you really do her. Don't forget We're all supposed to tell the truth. The whole truth and nothing Butt the truth. Thats a Quad boobie R.I.P. One Jump Wonder
  13. But she's not a pilot she didn;t have a job!!!!!! A man has to draw the line somewhere. Someone has to work. Now she might be a very wealthy women. Kind of like ex gov sarah. Books movies brand etc etc. So the line can be adusted, She has been in prison. R.I.P. Do her ewww . Marry her and ea one of us live in a diferent state you bet. I already got a wife to do, if she lets me, and she hasn't killed me yet.
  14. Hello Nice lady. Interesting poll I detect a 2 basic differnt opinions. Sexy and easy. Based on gender. Is there something mid ground: lacy, sexy , subtle a little secrete but not to secrete. Damn what am I doing I'm suggesting to a women what to wear Whatever you want nice lady. Remember we're old. Google: Pearls before swine IMO I wouldn't try the tape the ring trick unless you get a dude to try it first. Met a young guy in Fl that jumped without even a T-shirt. When he opened, , he watched one of his top ring, go by never to be seen again. According to him it hurt a lot. But thats second hand info. Doc can make the present future pain go away Lots of guy's will try and help him out. But the instant and past pain Sorry we're old and retired from everything. So we won't be able to attend this year. Party hardy jump till you puke and be safe.

    Hi Sparky I remember when I used to have to walk to school in snow waist high, uphill coming and going.
  17. Hi Dude We actualy met at LP last yr. I was impressed with your party attitude. Not over the top but good enough I think there were some oldd farts in the US like D-1 Mr Lew S had some kind of a goal to jump in every state or something, and maybe Pat Moorehood (top Pop or SOS and perrisite) and his jump bud had some kind of goal every planet, that don't sound correct, every something. Reminds me of a story about a army jump reunion. 82, 101 whatever airborn units, Young airborn pup (Yute) was proud of his double digits jump number
  18. Hi Mr Bill Thank you for swift action everyones digging this stuff from all over the world and imo theres a simple explanation. What I couldn't understand is how two or more mature adults that have been on the same websight for ever. Understand the rules and Can't resist takeing cheap shot's at ea other and Mr Bill has waste to waste his time to play babysitter for mature educated adults Now thats a sad indictment I could care less about politic's and a persons profession. What happen in SC should stay in SC or better yet just do it in the privacy of a PM. With out a audience. I can't figure out how to spell check but when I get PM's from the same person about the SOS I got motivated real quick and learned how to block them. Theres a simple explanation for it. I visited a woodworking websight that wasn't as as DZ.com They just called their special forum for people that have issues "the basement". I can usually catch myself 70% of the time before I take a cheap shot at some folks on this websight that just rub us the wrong way. It's real simple really even for a old fart that can't spell. Before someone says something about the 70% number thats a low ball guestimate FWIW After the shocking downturn in the world economy I watched a interview with Alan Greenspan (Google is your friend) admitted that he had made some errors but was proud of the fact that he was correct 70% of the time I don't have any unrealistic expectations about what to expect from "yutes" or adults. After the house guest from hell This situation is just another reminder how easy people that are educated mature adults resort to the lowest commen denomator. Like the poor uneducated folks that some of smart folks feel superior to.

    Hank Asciutto of ParaInnovators came up with something like that. He had a wedge of ballistic cloth sandwiched between 2 layers of 1000 denier Cordura. About 2 weeks later one of the Latin Skydivers almost went in with a “twisted belly band”. At about 500 feet he fired a TriCon reserve into the mess and almost pulled off a stand up. Any changes the manufactures make for safety jumpers will find a way to defeat it. Remember Booth’s 2nd. Law. “The safer skydiving gear becomes the more chances skydivers will take in order to keep the fatality rate constant”. Sparky Forgot About booth's 2nd. Law . I'm old I have a excuse
  20. Yes it is. think pac 750, other planes with turbine engines and minimum load In the back of the bus. Mr Stokes and a safety person if i remember correctly. How fast can you pea and poop and run to the bird? Mr stokes is in good enough shape that he doesn't walk he runs. No one is perfect not even Mr stokes he did get out short once at night and had to run back to the DZ he was MIA for 5-10 minutes. so there's two-four loads that he left on the table if anyone thinks they got the "right stuff". Mr stokes still young and will always be in shape so he can come back any time ifff his boss allows it. The First lady of USPA R.I.P. One Jump Wonder

    Are you talking about shorty's place in lincoln. Heard the club had a B-day maybe 50 yr's. To bad shorty couldn't make it. A great guy. If my memory is correct The belly band pc issue was due to a failure to make a good idea jumper/idiot proof. We had a similar situation in 1971-73 in KS. I also knew the guy that it happened to. A uncurrent jumper with more money than brains that wanted the latest and greatest gear. Being a seasonal jumper probably saved the guys life. Ground rush got his attention to go to plan B. plastic, silver, blast handle metal or whatever he used, he lived.
  22. The brits have been aound a lot longer than us savage yanks. So i can neither confirm or deny what your saying. Stiff upper lip old boy god save the queen etc. However based on the movie clockwork orange, the mods and rockers? unforgettable soccer games. and your claim for 100 % success blows the basic theory of the bell curve out of the water. To be 100% your either a very big dude, or are very selective on who you let into your castle Whats the secrete to your 100 % success rate? Pre screened, nobility, secrete hand shake, Rolls royces, tux's, & evening gowns only? I don't doubt what your saying I'm just trying to find the secrete to your success. I'm made a major o shit this time. Feel free to PM me your secrete. Trust me I won't tell a soul even my wife and I've never caught myself talking in my sleep. R.I.P. One Jump Wonder

    Remember when

    The game we had that plugged in was a football field that vibrated and shook the players all over the field. I remember when "pong" was the only video game. I remember pong When did the new video game come out Anyone remember remember collecting all the old xmas tree's in the concrete jungle (mass qty's in a small area) Dragging them to a vacant lot surrounded by concrete and brick, a lighting a match for aa outstand big ass fire and the fire dept or police could care less. Playing stick ball in the middle of the street 3rd or was it the second manhole was a home run. Delay in game due to cars wanting to pass. Losing the only spaulding ball down the storm sewer getting a metal coat haanger and fishing it out so we could get back to stick ball. Stoop ball Pitching pennies, nickles, quarters for money closest to the line wines all. Pitching baseball, cowboy cards against the wall closest card wins all. Walking to the neighborhood butcher on satuday morning and watch him cut a hanging side of beef to order. Long line Buying pickels out of a large wooden barrel. Buying fresh baggels hot out of the oven in the middle of the night. The guy who kept to himself at the end of the hall that had a strange tattoo on his arm with nothing but numbers. Walking to the neighborhood fruit stand hustleing up some real wood crates for free, finding someone that had a hammer, a saw and using the metal skakes. combine all the stuff and make your own custom skooter. Tar beach First time a big irish cop gave you a attitude adjustment with a long night stick. Funny stuff folks remember. For some reason most folks remember their lottery number from 40 yr's ago. Big stake gamble lose and you die unless your mama or pappy could afford to send you to college and keep you there. Remember before their was a lottery for the draft mommy and pappy that had the $$$ could still buy you a college deferment. Remember arlo guthrie in the movie alices resturant standing in his underwear in whitehall street. I remember standing in that line. some of the movie was true and some was hollywood. Group w bench they must have hid that thing never saw it. or any of the guy's I grew up with. The old fart that took your cloth's so no one could steal them while you stood in line in your whitey tighties. For some reason I can't remember the face but I do remeber he was old and had one arm. When the apt bldg converted from coal heat to oil. No more banging on the radiator to wake up the super to get his butt out of bed and throw some coal into the furnace. Dumb waiter in your apt. Walking to Yankee stadium and trying to hustle a free ticket so you could get into the stadium. When the first TV arrived in the neighbor hood. Back and white, no remote, just rabbit ears for a antenna. Hanging your laundry out to dry from a 6 flr one bdrm apt. One end of cloth's line attached to the fire escape other end to the bedroom window. at least we had a pully. Spelling was over rated. draft board never complained. Next next next Figureing out a legal way to dodge the draft without the help of your mommy or pappy. You screw up you die! Enlisted in the air force even though I couldn't spell. FWIW I don't hold any ill will to the folks that bugged out, used their wealth or connections to do what they did to beat the draft. Google Al Gore. wikipedia for some funny shit. Don't know if it's true or not but it is some funny shit. There's even a pic of al and tipper getting married Al is even wearing a army uniform that looks unique But i know nothing about what the army wore except in the rear way back in the rear. People used a slip stick to get a engr degree. Getting a "free" ride to college from uncle sam. $175/mo When the bank actually issued a bank book that showed all your deposits and debits. Before credit cards were ever issued. When all four tires on your car were a different brand and were bought used. When you could walk to the corner grocery store buy a hot loaf of rye bread and watch the owner insert it into the electric slicing machine. Without any safety guards. One Jump Wonder
