    I was given my first name by my mom, for the late actor, Charles Bickford. My middle name was my dad's first name. Chuck

    I would think, you'd be highly qualified to be a flight attendant! You have all the experience from being a DZO! Waiting on people and putting-up with various degrees of bull-shit! Seriously, I don't believe, there are any restrictions besides, good health. You seem to have the personality plus and the good looks... hey, go for it! Chuck

    Go after whatever you've dreamed of doing. It may not be 'easy' but, you put your mind to it... you can do it! You were a DZO. I grew-up, dreaming about doing different things and accomplished all of them but one... unlimited hydroplane driver. You just set your mind to it and go after it. Chuck

    Let me ask this... why, do they put a channel selector on televisions or an on - off button on them? As well as 'parental controls'? I really get tired of people bitching about what is on television. Why, does the majority allow themselves to be led around by the nose by a minority? If, parents don't want their kids watching something on T.V., DON'T let them watch it. Same goes for folks who don't like something on T.V. Don't watch it! It's really simple. Maybe, too simple. Sheesh! Chuck

    Well, it's about time! Terry, that's fantastic. With your knowledge of parachutes and the industry in general, you're gonna do great. I'm really proud for you. I've had the pleasure of meeting you at Symposiums over the years and have been really impressed by not only your knowledge but your over all exuberance for things parachute. Congratulations and all the very best to you! Chuck

    My first was like that. I realized, the gig was over when she tried to stab me in my sleep. Fortunately, I woke-up at just the right time. Gotta tell ya', it scared the crap outa me. I've had close calls in my life but, that was too close. Chuck

    ____________________________________________ That pretty much describes my wife! Sure, she likes the 'protection' thing and all that but, she's pretty independent. She likes me to be sensitive to her needs but, hey... that's fair. We both realize, it's a 100 - 100% thing. We both give 100%, it'll work! So far... so good.

    I think, you hit the nail on the head! Far as I'm concerned. My wife, is like you described. I got the world by the butt. She spoils me rotten and makes me laugh. I can't complain... if, I tried! Chuck

    Happy Birthday Wendy! Hope, it's a very special day for a special person. Do something really, really fun... if, you haven't already! Chuck

    Now, the most important part. When the weather is good for jumping, several 10 - 12,000 ft. jumps will seal the deal!. Glad, I could help. Chuck

    __________________________________________ That's a good question! It is my feeling, that with the high quality of workmanship, that is quite common among manufacturer's today, can make it difficult to choose. Look for what will fill your needs as either an instructor or student. In other words, 'flexibility'. Can the rig be used to train for throw-out, or rip-cord, comfort (not likely in student rigs), adjustibility of the harness, looks/appearance, durability and etc. Check manufacturer's web-sites and dig, for information. Telephone calls to manufacturer's can be very helpful, by talking with their riggers. Chuck

    _____________________________________ Then too, there's the problem of all the slivers of wood that get stuck in the material. The best way of ridding the parachute of cigarrette smell is, hang it out of direct sunlight... just let it air. A fan blowing on it won't hurt. Trying to use various chemicals can do more harm than good. I've had parachutes come to me with a strong odor of cigarrettes and I just hung it up, out of the sun for a couple days and the odor was gone. Some times, there is no 'magic' fix for some things.
