  1. Yes, I do that sometimes. I've never been known to make the best decisions For example, crosswind landing on a sloping, mudding landing area. Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience
  2. Bwwaaahahaha! I still wish I had taken a picture of that sign. I went by that place in February when I was there, but they changed the sign. Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience

    why

    [devil's advocate] I can almost understand a sig. other not agreeing with this sport/lifestyle/whatever. If it's not something they understand, they're not going to agree with it! Let's say you're dating this guy/girl for awhile, and they pick up a nice crack habit. You try it once, don't like it (maybe your heart explodes or something) are you going to stick with this person just because you love them? They're doing something you see as self destructive (not to mention taking most of their money) Myabe you don't try it at all, because you see it as such a complete waste of time, money, and brain cells. Would you expect them to say "If you love me, you'll stay by me" I think it's completely fair that you say "Drop the crack habit, or I have to leave. Your course in life has changed enough from the person I once knew, I don't like or agree or understand what you're doing in life anymore. Sorry" Hey, shit happens, people change. Wipe your ass and move on. Yeah, it sucks when everything about a person seems so right, but there's just one little (or big) thing you can't seem to get past. The person who has started skydiving (or a crack habit) has to decide if that's what that person wants them to do. Now, if he was a skydiver (or a crack head) before you started dating, then I think it's a whole other story. We seem to get one or two of these a year actually... kinda funny.. most of the time they seem like trolls. But, in case this is real, you have two options here 1) Try to understand it. Go make a tandem, hang out at the dz, look how happy it makes him (this could be a whole other discussion - the fact that it might make you jeaous that this activity can maybe make him happier than you can) and enjoy it. If you really can't understand why he's doing this, then you're left with option 2 2) Tell him it's your or his sport. You can't share or compromise. Just be prepared for him to cut you away. Don't try to hang out in the middle somewhere... you'll just be miserable and make him miserable in the process.

  6. Well, I never thought we should go bomb the shit out of some third world country, but that's me. I'm not saying we should have just sat around and taken it, but there's better ways to spend the money and still get the job done without pissing off 2/3 of the world in the process. I think South Park said it best when Kyle said "In time, maybe we can learn to hate you too" Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience
  7. uhh... how the hell do you do something like that?! Is the emergency brake on? C'mon guys, the commercial says "Professional driver on a closed course. Do not attempt" Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience

  10. I thought morphius used to not put spy-ware in there, but I hear now they do.... ? Bearshare seems to work well for me, and as far as I can tell, no spy-ware. Not as pretty as Kazaa, but it works. Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience
  11. Because, anytime something bad happens and people get sue-happy, they can and do name everything and everyone involved. It's happened before. The people the name probably had nothing to do with what happened, but lawerys start naming defendants in the hopes they'll just give them money instead of having to show up in court, and risk being judged by a stupid jury.

  12. I wonder if this is that one photographer guy... umm.. I forget his name, but he does stuff like this. Some of his pictures are really cool looking. He just takes naked pictures in different places. He got like 300 people to lay down naked on a runway or something like that one time. One picture was of a naked girl standing outside some military school if I remember right. Neat stuff actually... I'm just not cultured enought to remember the guy's name Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience
  13. And you answered "Buck" And your wager was "Futter" "Buck Futter... I don't get it "Oh, I think you do Trebeck!" Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience

  15. People are going to start talking... the last backround pic I had, you were in too. When 'someone' tackled me out of the Casa. Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience

  17. copy cat What's the difference between you and a mallard with a cold? One's a sick duck... I can't remember how it ends, but your mother's a whore. Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience

  21. I just flew with mine a few weeks ago. Carried it on, in a gear bag (took all the other gear out except logbook..can't lose that) Had no problems. Would be interested to hear if anyone has been "spot checked" with theirs at the gate. I managed to avoid that all 4 times. But I wonder if they'd ask to open the container.

    giggle

    Yes, but if he wasn't so over the top, the people who are always trying to dispute what he says might not seem so idiotic, and then the whole thing wouldn't be nearly as entertaining. I always have this mental image of one of those crazy guys with the sign on the street corner saying "The end of the world is near" and then 5 or 10 people around him with signs saying "No it's not, pay no attention to that crazy man" Who's the nuttier person? It's all about the Most Excellent Entertainment Damn I'm on a roll today... snort giggle fart Never argue with stupid people.They just drag you down 2 their level & beat you with experience
  23. lots of things annoy me.. Slow/stupid drivers People that don't use a turn signal (these are probably the same people that ignore you when you use yours "Hey! I'm trying to change lanes here! Don't have this thing on for giggles!") People who yak on cell phone all the friggin time! Just have it implanted in your ear why don't you?! At least that way I wouldn't have to hear it ring during my dinner or while watching a movie. People who take small children to a resturant/movie theater and don't do anything when the kid starts wailing. Muddy landing areas with ruts Nurses with no sense of humor: Her: "Which leg was it?" Me: "Uhh.. the one with the big friggin splint-boot thing on it!" (laughter from other skydivers there... she's not that amsued.. laughter stops) Her: "Ok, and how did this happen?" Me: "Well, I was dancing naked on this picnic table..." (laughter from other skydivers there... she finally cracks a smile) Me: "Ok, well, I should stop being a smart ass now, seeing as how you may be poking me with needles later...."
