  1. Ozzy went on record saying he was so shitfaced he had no clue it was the Alamo. Hell, I once puked in a potted plant at Planet Hollywood in South Beach, Miami, (in front of a Cop), and don't even remember getting back to the hotel, so I can say I know how Ozzy felt. _______________________________________ I don't think, he had any idea what the Alamo was before he got drunk. Maybe, I'm just overly sensitive. I was always told that being drunk was no excuse. I don't understand how a Planet Hollywood, can be compared to the Alamo? Chuck
  2. _______________________________________ The best I've gotten was 4 - 10! I do better with the higher winds, too! Hmmm... must be because of our constant West Texas winds. Chuck
  3. ___________________________________ I got 2 for ten, twice.... I gotta try again! Chuck
  4. Nope but can you tell me if this is SFW or NSFW? __________________________________ SFW! They're just... monkeying around! Chuck
  5. ______________________________________ I was trying to be kind to the 'seller' I hope, it isn't stolen but, if it is, we kow where to direct the 'proper authorities'! Chuck
  6. ________________________________ Bwahahahahaha Chuck
  7. _________________________________ Where do you find those (pics)? That's hilarious! Chuck
  8. I knew that! 'Economic growth and development and the future of Batswana'. Discuss! I'm getting verklempt. Chuck
  9. ______________________________________ That's a great idea, checking with the rigger. Seems as though, the seller is a bit naieve in regard to parachute equipment. Through the rigger, you'll find, who the owner is and maybe, you can contact him and get to the bottom of it all. Keep us posted. Chuck
  10. ________________________________________ It makes you wonder... where they are. Let's remember what today is for. Let's all, just take a minute and think of our troops past and present who fought and died so we can have what we have. Whether we have today off or not. Thank you, to all our troops!!! Chuck
  11. ______________________________________ According to our dzo, folks show-up with a Skyride cert., do the tandem and he waits for payment. All(according to him) with no prior communication with Skyride. That's what I've been told and I'm just trying to learn, here. Thanks! Oh, I didn't mean they they vary on a per tandem basis or require lots of communication. If you don't have a standing agreement with Skyride, they'll pay something like $110 (ballpark). If you want to become part of their network and agree up-front to accept their certificates they'll give you a little more, and if you want "exclusivity" (all tandems in your region are referred to you) I think it goes down a little bit. I'm sure there's some wiggle room in there for other negotiation too. Blues, Dave ________________________________________ O.K., I understand. Thanks! As I've said, I'm not 'up' on Skyride so, your information helps me understand. Chuck
  12. ___________________________________________ He should be arrested for promoting the crap he does! Chuck
  13. ____________________________________ How 'bout (((((vibes))))) and ((((((hugs)))))) Chuck
  14. here's a pic for ya... _________________________________ I don't think, that is what he had in mind! Chuck
  15. __________________________________________ That's it! I'm taking up numismitism!!! Chuck
  16. ___________________________________________ ... are you talkin' to me? Chuck
  17. I used to LOVE that shit growing up! As for weird magazines, there's one called "Dental Floss" that is based in Birmingham, AL started by 2 guys... I need to check it out... ______________________________________ I never heard of that one. No shit, man! I bought the very first issue of mad when I was a kid. I don't know what happened to my collection. William Gaines was something else! Chuck
  18. Well, it's like someone said; 'To each his own.' It's 'differences' that make the world go 'round. Chuck
  19. _____________________________________ When it comes to fish, those folks are very imaginitive. Come to think of it, I think, I saw fish ice cream mentioned on 'Iron Chef'. Chuck
  20. Barigos are endemic here because Parachutes Australia sells them. They do the job, are affordable and pretty tough. Sold. _____________________________________ I'd trust one with my life! Doh! Chuck
  21. No...probably more like $110-$120. The exact amount is agreed upon between the DZO and Skyride and varies based on a couple of different things. Blues, Dave ______________________________________ According to our dzo, folks show-up with a Skyride cert., do the tandem and he waits for payment.

    1800 SKYRIDE

    _________________________________________ They have dropzones where there aren't even dropzones! Chuck
  24. __________________________________ That's what I was curious about. As long as a dz can profit from Skyride, they're going to go along with it. Still, it just seems that all I've read about Skyride points to un-scrupulous behavior and down-right swindling folks. Maybe if, the A.G. in Utah persues an investigation into Skyride we might hear the whole story. I appreciate your response. As a note, our little 1-cessna dz charges $195.00 for a tandem. Skyride, with one of their certificates pays the dz $75.00!? Chuck
