At least I've only got two people cursing me. So, what's your 2000th post gonna be about? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Only the snapshots that my brain took. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I know I don't have a cold, I just partied too much all weekend. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

You been hanging around Shannon too long. Damn uppity women. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Yes I am. Oh, well in that case: Hey, don't you tell me what to do! You're not the boss of me. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

You guys better not start the carnage before the rest of us get there! grumble-mumble-grumble Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

$2.35?! I was still paying $2.92 on Sunday! The crazy part is most of our gas here in Washington come from Alaska, not Hurricane Alley. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

You were close. Got the helmet finally shimmed up right, the box mounted, and the cam-eye control unit and indicator lights installed. All I've got left to do is run the cam-eye plug through the helmet/box and into the LANC port (would be a LOT easier with a Dremel), and hope the wide-angle lens I ordered last Wednesday shows up today versus tomorrow.

I knew he was sick Anyhoo.. get your ass better Dave, cause you ain't bringing those germs to B-town! I'm just trying to keep you scared enough that you avoid that outside video slot! So, if I drill a hole in or remove the cover over my LANC port (right side), do I void the warranty? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I haven't, but I've watched one. I believe it was an out of sequence EP. I don't remember what exactly was wrong, but with the drogue in tow, the TM dumped the reserve. The main then came out and was hanging below them in the bag. The reserve was stalling, and as the TM reached up to get it under control, the main got out of the bag and inflated. It then came up and trapped the TMs arms between the main and reserve risers (that's how he described it to me). The canopies then downplaned and started spinning, and the TM tore both biceps trying to get to the cutaway. He couldn't, but was able to get the student to reach back and pull it at a few hundred feet. They turned maybe 30 more degrees and pounded into an open soccer field in a fairly thick residential area. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

What can we do about Skyride?
livendive replied to ChasingBlueSky's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Yep! I thought maybe I was the only one who noticed that. It gets quite a different reception from the skydiving community when the target is Ben and Cary instead of Mike. Not that I mind of course. Skydivers shouldn't sue skydivers, but in this case, I really don't mind. In fact, it seems appropriate. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew) -
Of course not. I also don't see how my teaching students how to skydive during the weekends will make people think I'm a good environmental engineer during the week. It's a good thing that's not why I do it, eh? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Any USPA DZs require AADs?
livendive replied to StreetScooby's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Since it is the DZO's drop zone/business it is his decision not yours. You can go along with his decisions/rules or move on. That decision is up to you. I agree. He gets to choose whether he wants to usurp my decision, I get to choose whether I let him. That's what prompted my entry into the thread. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

boldest thing you ever did to show someone you like them

You first. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew) -
Highly over rated.. nothing but a bunch of chicks... Fox... Chicks coop... Speaking of which, what do you suppose the guys who make jello-shots for that boogie spike them with? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

What can we do about Skyride?
livendive replied to ChasingBlueSky's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Those good folks picked their bed-partners. I've been quite clear for a few years with my DZO that if he got into bed with Skyride, I'd quit the very next day. I choose to work for reputable people, and that works out well for me. Those who choose to work for disreputable people should have no reasonable expectation for the same.

At about 4 or 5 PM. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I think she's made like 8 jumps in the last two months, all of them at LP. Edit to add: I suggest betting her a hundred bucks that you can hit 400 before she does. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

You'd be a lot closer if you'd made those 5 jumps last Saturday. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Is a man pursuing a woman archaic to you guys???
livendive replied to windcatcher's topic in The Bonfire
I'm fat and my knees have some miles on them, so I never chase anything very far. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew) -
So if I go, I'll have two cameras on me down there instead of just doing a solo below the formation? Funny, naked jumps are the one time I don't like being a camera hog. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
