Well I can only think of one person on that dz who was saved down in FL at a pops meet, there rest of those who are on or were on that dz had their head up their ass and are the walking dead. A couple of them have more then one cypres fires in one year and again it was not due to being knocked out, it was from head up ass. These same ones are the ones who have no clue about their gear or how it works because throwing money at it will take care of it, that is what packers and riggers are for. Now most of those have move on and only show up for an ego stroke now & then. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

The glass around the drummer is to soften the sound on the stage and keep from having to turn up the stage monitors or in ear monitors for everyone else because the drums are too loud. That is the short story. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Yea I'd kind of like to know who that was he got his rating from, there was one TDMCC I/E in Ohio at that time running a "rating school" who's actions are being called into question in other ratings issued, the fact that this I/E was also being helped (campaigning for) into replacing Ms. Butcher's soon to be vacant RD seat by Ms. Butcher leads one to wonder if she was also pushing students his way too. In the suit it says Aerohio is out of business, don't look that way to me http://www.jumptoday.com same business name & same owners near as I can tell. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Well we all learned a lot from you too and you deserve a huge thanks for your contributions to not only this fourm by to the many personal contacts you make as well as taking the time to provide training tips via video to anyone who asks. Thanks! I hope you have a great holiday season and clear blue skies for 2010. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Do you have any idea how much money Ted has spent already to defend this case? I do i talked to Ted about two months ago on the phone and it was already past 600K then and heading to a million pretty fast he said. Yea pretty fucked up, maybe Tim & Sherry will cut him a big fat check for X-mas. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

You know dave I kind of agree with the bring back the JM deal, however I also strongly feel we should have never got rid of the JM rating to start with, even in all areas in other words S/L, IAD etc. I'm still a JM rating holder I earned mine and it was taken away, yet it was not replaced with coach, I would have to take a course for that, but seeing how I'm an I in SL & AFF that trumps coach so says the USPA, I says how about give me my rating back asshats! (I also worked my ass of and earned my AFF it was not given to me or as a conditional use rating) And as far as the problem I/E's and there are only a few, where do you draw the line? I think one has proven beyond a shadow of doubt he is not up to snuff and needs to be removed from the pool of I/E's and he also has no biz holding a S&TA appointment IMHO. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

What you think that up in dues is going to cover the slots & the I/E fees too? you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

That is some funny shit dude cuz I smoked a pack and a half of cowboy killers for 25 years, the last four of those year my wife quit taking the pill (no we were not trying) after 4 months of me quitting cig's...... guess what happened. Weed can not be ruled as the only or main reason for lack of birth rate! you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Well maybe he as a USPA member in good standing wishes not to risk being thrown off group member dz's for voicing his views in a public fourm. Can't say I blame him or her for doing so. Who ever it is sure seem to know fact from fiction! Kind of like to know myself so I can buy a round or two for having the balls to tell it like it is! you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

1 & 3 are very nice. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

I'm going to say it again, if you really think there is a problem then you need to start by getting rid of the I/E's who hand out made up ratings called "conditional rating". You need to fix the problem with those who run the course's first! Then worry about the rest of the program! I will not sign your petitions because your addressing the wrong problem. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Let us not forget that Mr. Lowmiller while still holding his mid-eastern regional seat, didn't like the fact someone would say/post their point of view about their seated USPA RD Mr. Lohmiller. So like a fucking ________ after reading my posts on the subject of a seated USPA RD, S&TA, Tandem I/E, AFF I/E, SL I/E, IAD I/E, he kicked me off a group member dz because of my post about MY elected USPA regional director. So all of you need to keep in mind this: if you have the balls to say or post anything bad about Mr. Lohmiller and plan to attend a ICC you might show up and find out your banned from attending or he might even stoop low enough to try to ask your DZO to kick you off the DZ while his lame ass is there. And if you do get in the ICC and are stupid enough to trust you'll get a fair eval after stating your point of view, don't be surprised if you don;t pass. Then again you always could suck his dick and get a "conditional rating". Oh and Kip, contrary to your wild ass claims of me being kicked off EVERY dz in the state of Ohio, it had only been 1, up to the point of you being a pussy who can't handle people voicing their disapproval of your actions as an elected USPA official. Kind of funny as hell to hear as the prop turns you were helped off SS by the police. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Well you might have no problem down in NC getting all the student number to get your yearly quota for renewal, but in many many places such as fly over country, not every dz has maga student numbers and it's hard enough to get what you need. You now want us to shell out more money and go to a recert class and or hire one of these fulltime I/E's to come out here to run it, I'm sure Kip would love that he already bitches about how he don't make enough money as it is. This lack of student numbers and lack of AFF-I in their area is one reason you see so many dz's doing tandem progression. If you want to start having us add on more fees and extra bullshit you will see a number of current rated people say fuck it and not keep the rating. If you want to solve the current problem then start with weeding out the I/E's who trade blow jobs for their newly invented non USPA approved "conditional ratings". you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

I really like my canons a 20d, XTI & XS. The 20d has been to hell and back and is tough as hell, after 5 years a screw inside got loose and fell onto the main board and shorted it out, I found a repair shop local who fixed it for about 250, while this repair was going on I got a referb XTI with a 90 day w. on day 85 it took a crap but was replaced, while that was going on (both crap out while on locations) I over nighted a XS to me. Now I have my fixed 20d and a new replaced XTI and a new XS, I love all three of them, the only thing I don't like if the batt's are all different and so are the chargers as well as the XS is now a SD card. If I thought I could sell my 20d and the XTI and get enough cash to pick up two more XS or XSi's I would do so. I have had many great years out of my 20d and lot of hard living it took. You can't go wrong with a canon of most models. Nikon I hear just as good things about, but that for me would mean new glass, so stay with canon. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Well sorry there is no sarcasm face icon. Those who use terms like "dope heads" I thought would better understand the term "towel heads" better then an educated term of "radical islamic fundamentalist", but hey could have been worse I could have sounded like a racist redneck retard and said "sand niggers".

This will go down on your permanent record! *** After the ordeal, we went back to the jail. Obie said he was going to put us in the cell. Said, "Kid, I'm going to put you in the cell, I want your wallet and your belt." And I said, "Obie, I can understand you wanting my wallet so I don't have any money to spend in the cell, but what do you want my belt for?" And he said, "Kid, we don't want any hangings." I said, "Obie, did you think I was going to hang myself for "littering?"smoking a joint? Obie said he was making sure, and friends Obie was, cause he took out the toilet seat so I couldn't hit myself over the head and drown, and he took out the toilet paper so I couldn't bend the bars roll out the - roll the toilet paper out the window, slide down the roll and have an escape. Obie was making sure, and it was about four or five hours later that Alice (remember Alice? It's a song about Alice), Alice came by and with a few nasty words to Obie on the side, bailed us out of jail, and we went back to the church, had a another thanksgiving dinner round of Bong hit's that couldn't be beat, and didn't get up until the next morning, when we all had to go to court. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo
