  1. http://www.johndeeregifts.com/category/hats/men%26%2339-s.do relatively cheap. obviously not well worn. get a new one, take some sand paper to it and run it through the wash a bunch of times.
  2. +1 If you are making a braked turn at 50 ft. you sure as shit better plan to flare from breaks too. It's not a good idea to let up so you can get a full flare. Don't jump over railings without being completely sure whats on the other side. When you are little, it's not a good idea to put on roller blades, find the biggest hill in town and see how fast you can get going down it. especially if your parents don't know where to go to look for you. While starting fires with caps (thing cap guns) sounds fun, it can go very wrong very quick. Your closet is not suitable to be converted into a swimming pool.
  3. Here's mine. It's pretty small and hard to see. Hard to tell from the small image but thats 2 screws in the tib. Much bigger image and easier to see.http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/photo.php?pid=43183998&id=10053331 Thanks for all the responses too. It's good to get some info first hand from people who have experienced it.
  4. That's what I was afraid of. Thank you for the response.
  5. More specifically for people who needed to get a plate. Recently I have been feeling the plate because the walking cast rubs on it and it is pretty uncomfortable. When you got out of your walking cast, assuming you had one, and switched over to normal shoes could you still feel the plate rubbing? Also if you could at first, did/do you still feel it rubbing after a few months?
  6. Some of these are just great. The rest of you are just brutal.
  7. Definitely getting old. Oh, wwhhhaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! Quit cryin'. YOU weren't involved. .....Were you? I can't remember. ...hmmmm....... And how much of MY past crap is gonna be hanging over my head whenever I go back there ...FOREVER?! ...... Keep voting, kids. It's pleasantly informative, and I must recuse myself due to a conflict of interest. And don't forget to keep writing in those wonderful options that Jello completely left OUT of the poll. look harder.
  8. ahahahah. summerfest... +1 You three were the first in, but I think our group had the most fun, other than tripping over Bubba's cooler. I didn't care as much for it once the foam was well over my head. I was thinking more of the stories I heard about after most people had left the pit. But yes we did get the party started.
  9. Unfortunately no. I can't jump for 12 weeks from the surgery which is late April. I probably won't start till late May though due to school.
  10. Saved two percocet tablets and about 8 norco just because I anticipated a painful situation in the future. Hopefully I won't have to use them.
  11. breaks: What you don't want to do again. brakes: Those lines coming down off the trailing edge, which if operated properly, will keep you from doing that again. normally i would have spelled it right. I'm just so used to typing break over the last 4 weeks that i heard brakes in my head and typed it as breaks.
  12. Wow, that was deep. I actually got goosebumbs from reading that.
  13. Yeah I actually took the time to read it after I had already posted.
  14. WTF!? This sucks. They've been putting up new shirts for the last few weeks so this is kind of surprising. I wonder if it's just the economy or something else.
  15. I get to start going full weight bearing today. I'm pretty damn happy about that. This may sound weird but while it sucks that it happened and I hated a lot of the recovery process I'm not sorry it happened. It really made me realize a bunch of things. I never thought I was so good I couldn't get hurt but I did start to take my landings for granted. My accident really made me realize I need to work on my canopy skills. If I knew how to flare from breaks and was more comfortable that may have saved my ass. Also if I would have had the presence of mind to PLF I may have been ok but I just kinda freaked out. I even asked my doctor, saying I know all he had was the x-rays but judging by those does he think PLFing may have saved my leg and he said it possibly could have. So as I said before, while it sucks I'm not sorry and it made me think about some things and I may be a better skydiver because of the fact I broke myself. It also comes with a nice little realization in everyday life. With all the bad crap in the world it also really makes you realize that people are good people. Someone has always been nice enough to open the door for me or grab a paper from the instructor for me. Hopefully the rest of you newbies will learn what I learned without having to break something to do it. I hope everyone's day is as good as mine.
  16. It wasn't that hard and IIRC they only flew horizontally. Plus the gun made it easy. That game is hard as hell on a trackpad.
  17. This reminds me of an episode of Real Sex on HBO. Did anyone else see that episode where they showed a pornstar making a mold of her vagina? It was interesting in an odd way.
  18. Don't make faces at me. Respect your non-elders. Sorry, I'm not submissive. It was meant in a joking way hence the laughing face.
  19. Definitely not opening this one at school. Why? Its just a flashlight. Which I assume means a fleshlight.
