EJ - works everytime :-) lol I ended up with the nickname of "vampire" since every code I brought in had an EJ line (easier to bag and give meds from one place that way), though it is a little harder in trauma pt's when you can't turn their head to one side.

Mark; That's awesome, by far the best I've seen so far (granted I've not seen a lot) Could you post a picture of your clamp slide assembly? Thanks! Tom Crowe (Riglet in training) Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek

I don't know of any good forums other than AOPA; but if I had to offer one piece of advice towards getting your PPL ( as well as your commercial and instrument ratings) it would be to get your own plane to do the training in!!! Most used planes hold their value very well, and when your done with you training you can usually get 90% of purchase price back out of the plane. So if you have ~25-40k that you can invest or even finance, get your own plane. You will complete your training faster as you don't have to wait as long in between flights or compete with other students for the aircraft. You will also be far more familiar with the aircraft. It will be far cheaper in that you will get back most of what you pay in aircraft payments (including tie-downs and insurance). (don't forget to still pay rental to yourself on the airplane to cover maintenance). The plane that I currently own I bought specifically to do my instrument rating in, and I have never regretted it!

Being a pilot and a skydiver I particularly appreciate the one I just read in the incidents forum; "It was a little hotter today and I didn't calculate the proper density altitude" Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek

+1 Now if we can just convince all the women that we are sincere in saying that. Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek

I'd like in as well if there's still room.

It depends on the architecture of the system board. Most CPU/System board combinations these days I believe you can install a single DIMM, but I could be mistaken (I do very little with PCs these days work mostly on Unix systems).

I've good luck the last 6 months with Flash running on Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64; but before that, you're absolutely right it sucked! Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek

True it didn't *include* them, but you could always load the 32bit libraries and re-compile the desired application from source. (writing this on a a laptop running Ubuntu 9.10 x86_64) Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek

Short answer: True

I was working in Jacksonville for several weeks and was hoping to get in a few week-day jumps on those days I got off early. I looked at their website which clearly welcomes fun jumper (even listing lift ticket pricing). I called one day to see if they were jumping as I had gotten off work early; I was rudely informed "we don't welcome certified jumpers" and was then hung up on. If you're considering a tandem here, STAY AWAY!

I'm in; I will get there on the 28th. Hoping to jump my ass off to make up for all the months not jumping this summer due to work et life shite.

I'm planning on being there. (looking at the Kilts website now too) Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek

+1 For Fitzgerald. I went this year and it was amazing. Not saying it was my first boogie (due to beer implications)

I've had this discussion several times with my ex-girlfriend, and I've seen it come up several times in the forums. I would say, without a doubt, tell them!! Yes, it is going to intimidate *some* guys (but do you really want to be dating them anyways?). I started dating a skydiver, and that pushed me to finally get in the sport and stay jumping; now I am dating a wuffo, and I have to say it is hard! It's hard to find the time away from the dropzone, it's hard to make the decision to jump or spend time together. Especially since I've agreed not to bring her to the dropzone for the time being. (an agreement my ex and I made when we broke up). Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek

Glad to hear that your dog is going to be ok. I would think that the landlord has at least *some* liability for the vet bills. As for foreclosure rendering a lease void, I don't know but I do have someone I can ask (a family member that has several rental properties, and is pretty familiar with the real estate laws).

Andy; I don't that you can leave the DZO and S&TA out of this. The opinions on this issue are so polarized, and each so fervently believes in the validity of their position, that a mutual consensus seems unlikely at best, and can leave students dazed and confused amid the contradictory stances at worst. (they're already suffering from information overload with the FJC). DZ's have S&TA, I believe, for precisely this reason. So that a single authority has the ultimate responsibility about what is and is not acceptable for that DZ. Thomas Crowe, NRP Nationally Registered Paramedic Red Hat Linux Geek
