  1. They don't have to find a sponser or keep them happy. They get a billion dollar wind tunnel to play in all the time. It's their job (How much do the members of Majik or Ranch Tribe or Airspeed or Elsinore Adrenaline get paid while they're training?) it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  2. I see nothing wrong with it. People get pissed because they're using our tax dollars. Well, we spend tax $$ on some pretty stupid things. I think the GKs do a pretty good job being amassadors or our sport and the army. It's good PR, good publicity (for us and them) .... what's the big deal? Do they have an advantage? Probably. But hey, you go join the army and serve your country, and you could be a GK too. I guess some people have had bad experiences with them (egos are too big) but other people say that's not the case at all. I dunno.... the one time I actually met some of them, they did their whole show (complete with intentional cut-away) into our DZ, and were more than happy to chat for awhile even though they had other places to be. Seemed like ok guys to me. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  3. That doesn't make you a skydiver, that just means you're lazy. My boss pointed out to me that I was doing that one day when I reached for my pager... it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  4. me and my good friend George (Mr Killian to you) are catching up on old times.... it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  5. Probably the coolest thing I've ever seen a jumpmaster do at my DZ: JM "Are you ready to skydive!?" Student "I don't know!" JM "We cannot exit the aircraft unless you say 'yes!'" ... "Are you ready to skydive!?!" Student "Ok! Yes!!!" No need to badger them into it. If they don't want to go, they don't want to go. Seems to me the last thing an instructor would want is someone who is completely terrified in the air with them - they could freak out, latch on, panic, brain-lock, etc. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  6. tell her to find a new dz or at least a different jm it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

  8. So you've been a corrupt cop for most of your life? And have recently started training a rookie? Watch out, he's going to try to turn you in. -- Always happy, never content, with no regrets.

  12. The only thing you can blame Canada for is Celine Dion. And Howie Mandell and Tom Green and William Shatner and Keanu Reeves and Rush and Bryan Adams ... it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  13. Keep them. RW can be fun, you never know when you might want to do it (or get asked). it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  14. I thought it was "Kids in the front seat cause accidents. Accidents in the back seat cause kids." it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  15. Amen! And for some reason, I've seen like 5 of these today.... it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  16. There used to be "Exit seperation" sheets in the Casas... where did those go? Nothing sucks worse than having 30 people on the plane who have no idea how fast we're screaming across the ground, and they take forever between groups. Have who ever loads the plane talk with the pilots and tell everyone as they board what kind of seperation to give. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  17. didn't we decide a long time ago that Jesus was a freeflier? The hair, the sandles, the baggy clothes. the persecution... it's all there.. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

  24. Yeah, and you should line these things up before you go. Much easier than hunting while you're there. Even better if you can find one that will supply you with the place to sleep too! Give her about 3 Smirnoff Ices. Same effect, easier to find. it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
  25. side view and then front/back view. you can see the total of 5 screws (2 for the tib 3 for the fib) I like Dove's x-rays better! Hers are sexy! it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
