Brother, I am rightously pissed. I have been trying to come up with a decent skydiving tat for years and I can't believe I didn't think of that......really nice. I am jealous. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Time to bail on the crotch rocket and get a cruiser. I ride my bike out to the DZ and get both of my fixes. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Damn, sorry....I'll make it even worse for you......I bought a brand new never jumped 105 from a local guy here in Chicago. He bought it for a little girlfriend of his and she never got off student status.....So I took it. Purple and Teal were the colors.which I din't like at all.....But I remembered that Atair had a really cool Purple and Neon Pink 105 they were using as a demo...... Atair swapped me the ugly one for the pretty one and I got that sent within a couple of days...... Of course my wife quit her job and I cannot afford a container for the 105......... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I must amend myself, I just checked and my 120 was delivered in 6 weeks......not late at all. It was my old Safire that was late...... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

As the canopy is made overseas, Atair here is at the mercy of the factory. Plus the shipping company, customs...and whoever else you want to add in there. I seem to recall my canopy being a touch late from them as well...but not much..maybe a week. This time of the season I think most skydiving manufactuers are pretty busy and delaying stuff. There was mention of this in the last Parachutist, that things had been slow and had suddenly picked up. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Again, perhaps you can get a Time-Out with the flashing LED. Maybe your brain will start assiciateing the flashing red light with the audible noise. Using the flashing light is no better/worse than using an audible. Your primary alititude awareness is still your best defense. Poor eye sight might be a hinderance, but I have seen blind people jump. (With a lot of help true...but they still made jumps) JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

How much cash did he have in his pocekt? I can sew one up tonight and sell it to him for 1/2 of what you'd sell it to him for!! End result is the same.he is out money and dead, no matter whcih of us sells hims a canopy!! Should I use the old bedsheets or the plastic tarp for that ZP feel??? JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Chicks think scars are sexy......... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Oh yes, you have hit upon the divine paradox: Everything is important and nothing is important......I love that. It allows me to focus on something intently and forget it tomorrow. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I wear leather, no helmet. When it gets hot: jeans boots and t-shirt.......typical cruiser rider. I would probably conisder armor, if it weren't so damn ugly. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

By your same rational, why be a cop or a fireman? The benefits don't outweigh the risks, do they? Sometimes..believe it or not people do things because they want to, because they believe in ideals. Not fior what was in it for them. I joined for no ulterior motives. They pay sucked, I never used the college benefits, I slept in tents and lived out of a seabag......I did it because I needed to know if I could live up to the ideal I expected others to live up to.

>Don't confuse Honor and Duty. They are not the same< No they are not, but they are brothers in arms. Honor dictates duty......In spite of orders given to you. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

If this person you know was fresh out of boot camp....don't worry that will wear off. Then they will calm down and take some of that shit with the grain of salt it came with. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

The more I hear you, the more I don't like to listen to you....... Is it easy to warp a weak mind?? Yes. Is it easy to convince a strong mind?? Yes, if they agree with your point of view. What the fuck is your point? That every person in the Military is weak? And we use your fine example as a comparison? BWAHAHAHAHA!!! What the Military does indoctrinate into anyone is discipline, a will to win, self control, attention to detail. It teaches honor and loyalty, and the essential need to follow orders, even if you might not agree with them.....just because it puts you in harms way. Where you logic is wrong is that you use crowd AND organization to describe the Military. That contradiction does not fit. Cowards need crowds to hide in. Warriors band together to form teams. To be able to attack in an organized fashion. But are these same people mindless? Incapable of independent thought? No they are not. They constantly think of ways to better themselves, both physically and mentally. Are these bad qualities? According to you they are..which would explain why you seem to lack them in such great amounts.. I could be wrong. I was just down in Z-Hills a few weeks ago, I don't recall seeing you there. A shame. I would have enjoyed letting you into my mind, so you could point out all my weakness, lack of personality and shortcomings. Next time I get down your way I'll let you know when. After a few jumps, I'll buy you a beer and we can get to know one another. If you take the message of what yiou said, and apply it to some religious cult, praying on drug addled teenagers......I can see your point. however..... If you insult one more military person, by saying they are weak minded, if you belittle the job they do that you are unwilling and uncapable of doing for yourself..then you are scum.

Mandy is worth walking from LA to Elsinore. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Go to Elsinore. Mandy is there and that makes it a great place to be.

Tea sucks, I can't get anywhere near the buzz like I can with coffee........ Iced Tea rocks.... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I knew I heard it somewhere............. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

All of Husseins body doubles were gathered up for a special meeting. The information minister addressed them. He said, " Praise allah I have some good news and some bad news." "The good news is that Saddam, our fearless leader is confirmed to be alive and that you all still have jobs!!!" Cheers arose!!!! "The bad news is he lost left arm in a bomb blast"....... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I want the head so clean that the Virgin Mary herself would be honored to take a dump in it...... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Well you know you need a big dick and tits to fuck some of those animals....... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Good point...safety second...loooking good.....priority numeral ono. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"
