Oh i'm not afraid to admit, when it's on and i have time to watch it -- it typically is entertaining. Too bad she's on during work and I don't have a tivo. :) Kevin

nothing there. ;)

i walked down to the little shop to pick up some food when oprah was coming on, everyone in the audience (all adults) were jumping around like they were 4 and santa was in town.. what the f? Was oprah giving them all stuff or what? didn't watch the show..

Has anyone noticed any damage (loose threads, seams) after washing their suit a number of times? Gus I've washed my suits 2 or 3 times and haven't noticed anything, but that original statement came from Robert himself :)

Just something to note, washing your suit isn't going to kill it - however every time you wash it you decrease the tinsle strength of the thread. So while your suit is still fine when you pull it out, it is slightly decreasing it's longevity. :)

so what did you do for training? Glad you made it out okay :) suit looks nice. flock on! Kevin

Get vertigo bases's video.. it's great that's how I learned, jumped all my pack jobs (my first jumps) this year at bridge day, all on heading. (your results may vary) :) http://www.vertigobase.com

Well i voted on your own, my dad used to jump back in the days of the round (still has his round) but mom made him quit before he had any kids so, he has never jumped a square and really didn't push me to jump.. i guess it's just in the genes :)

I've thought about it for the purpose of taking pictures of the "perfect" body position but gave up on it.. i'm guessing something like that was used for this picture

dude, i feel your pain. 1st off I'd call amex and pull the payment. Pretty simple issue there, and don't feel bad about it. And while we're saying who not to do service with, don't use letstalk.com to get your cell phone svc! i went to purchase a phone with them (t-mobile), got instantly denied based on credit i know my credit is good so I called them, they said call T-mobile.. so I called t-mobile.. and after lots of bitching found out it was deined b/c there was another account open with my SS #. That's funny, I dno't have an acct.. turns out someone took my SS #. Okay, so have to go into dc to fax over proof i'm me (ss card, id, etc) ok great... perp's account is now cancelled, it is okay for me to get a phone. So go back to letstalk.com to order again, this time CC denied.. why? Well, amex thinks it might be fraud 2 charge attempts same amount same company.. so they deny it.. so I have to get letstalk to call amex to authorize it.. get Disconnected from the 3 way call with amex to get it authorized, call back get someone else. they are of no help and say it could take a day before they can get the authorization. I cancel the order go re-order on their website with a different credit card (so this now is the 3rd order) gets instantly denied based on "credit" same issue again, T-Mobile says it's been cleared up but evidentally letstalk.com servers aren't updating or something. Call to talk to a manager.. they are unavailable, ALL DAY it seems. Nothing they can do to "manually" verify that it's okay for me to get the phone. PLUS because 3 orders were not successful i now have to wait 90 days before I can place an order with them again. The promo that letstalk was giving was saving me close to 200.00.. and no one else is offering the promo what shit!

She is my roomie :)

Here's mine that was used for an article

damn i'm interested in knowing what happened there.. i think i saw that company profiled on tv once.. that sucks. for some reason this seems like a "bird-dogging" flight gone bad.. just like with wingsuit swooping you're traveling within close proximity of another object.. you shouldn't make it so close that these types of things can happen of course I don't know what happened, just saying what first thoughts are.

I don't think you can just ask "what suits were flying' as with flocking it depends not only on the suit but also the pilot. If you have a pilot flying sloppy / poorly in an S3 then the entire flock is flying fast or you could have people kicking ass in a classic and the speeds be slow -- "you're only as strong as your weakest link" you'd have to inquire as to the experience level of the pilots as well if you want to compare see speeds on flocks.

*lol* celeb.. :)

Anyone know (or have a hookup) to reverse an 800 # to get a company name? Long story short i've tried google, tried 1800-555-1212 and even tried calling the particular 800 # (which gives no info on the company) Also tried some social engineering but got no live person and no voicemails that gave any info other than "we're not here" Ideas?

If have your # and want to know where you live, then go to google put it in and wham there's your address.

Well that's probably the famous loic video that's been floating around for some time now.. i don't think anyone has enough miracle grow to get their balls as big as loic's to try that stunt again, so it's probably loic :)

I can tell you it has to do with the "anti-piracy" routine in imagefolio, but can't tell you the exact reason it's messing up :) it has to do with ensuring you don't copy the images but obviously this is some type of issue with your environment or something that is causing it to think you're trying to copy images.

is that gold coast's old aircraft?

Yep I'll try and find the video.. at ballunar in houston, I would guess i was around 3 - 4K feet, saw it coming up and went to try and catch it.. flew right past me pretty quick :) would have been neat. Maybe a new sport? hehe.. On a different note, friday on mythbusters they re-created the lawn chair suspended by weather balloons "myth" .. pansys only took it up like 30 feet, used probably 4 or 5 thousand dollars in helium. what a waste. I would have gone out there and let them let it loose :)
