  1. Rather than rollint hte outer cells, I just fold them in and next to the center cell. What you listed in regard to packing Sabre's, is also (basically) what is described in the Owner's Manual. Chuck
  2. #1 and #3 are both obvious rigging errors that should be caught by a simple '3-line check' that every jumper does when they run the lines. I'm not sure I understand #2. __________________________________________ We had a young jumper at our DZ, when packing, would just scoop-up all the right-side lines in his right hand, all the left-side lines in his left hand and walk it out. He'd then, proceed to pack. I tried to point-out that he wasn't doing it correctly and he just got 'mad'. He informed me in so many words, he knew what he was doing! So, things like that, can and do happen. We riggers don't know what people are going to do with their gear, once it leaves our shop. Chuck
  3. You mean there's more to life than jumping with Dave? Seriously though, haven't quite figured it all out yet. First step is to take my first jump as an official resident of Texas! Then I'll find a permanent residence. Maybe I have too much PMA, but I have every faith that things will work themselves out in the best way! _________________________________________ AAwwwww! I'm tellin'! It's going to take a little while to get settled, I'm sure. Don't be afraid to ask for help. We're always willing to. All the very best to you! Chuck
  4. ______________________________________ I've had that very thing, happen to me. It's a very awkward situation. After that 'situation', the guy brought his rig for me to I&R. I refused it! I did tell him that, I wasn't going to ever do work on his gear again. If, he was going to do something to his gear 'after' I worked on it then, try to pass it off on me... I didn't need it. Chuck
  5. I'm thinking that it was a case of TOTAL cluelessness. Walt _________________________________________ Didn't that ol' gal let her dog sit on the front seat, the whole trip? Chuck
  6. _____________________________________ Yes, sir! It is! Only, it's spelled 'Y'all'. (Just tryin' to help.) So, what will you be doing in The Lone Star? Besides jumpin with the illustrious AggieDave? Chuck
  7. Actually, Mike Judge, while living in Houston, got the idea of 'Beavis and Butthead' from two guys who lived in the apartment next to him. The one guy was on medication and when he missed his meds, got 'strange'. Chuck
  8. Do you know, what is white and sleeps five? A Taxas DOT truck!!! Chuck
  9. Joe Walsh! The 'clown prince' of rock n' roll'! The guy is a great guitar player and with the Eagles, made for a great band. Good stuff. Chuck
  10. Awesome! My small load doesn't compare but I'm sure it'll help out a few families atleast _________________________________________ You bet, it will! Every little bit helps. All that we gathered was from the town I live in plus neighboring communities for about 10 counties. Bless your heart, for what you are doing. Chuck
  11. Here in West Texas, we sent 6 - tractor-trailer (53') rigs loaded with water, canned goods, paper goods and etc. went to the Hattiesburg area, last week-end. This morning, 22-more rigs headed back there. The Salvation Army is collecting clothing. We've raised over $100,000.00, matched, dollar for dollar by Best Buy. We're still collecting... till they tell us to stop. This isn't going to be over for a long , long time. Chuck
  12. Ehh, maybe. I did hear a rumor that farmer McNasty might be there. ______________________________________ Hey! We got one o' them McNasty dudes, too! Chuck
  13. __________________________________ Dreams, are good!
  14. I heard that years ago they had one at Z-Hills. The friend who told me about it claimed he took 2nd place. He said the guy that took first had soaked his in ice water for 20 minutes to make sure he would win! Walt _____________________________________ I hope, he had a string tied to it! Probably looked like a button on a fur coat! Chuck
  15. ___________________________________ Works good on someone who has 'swallowed 'little packets', too! Chuck
  16. Or the new hero in a drunken stupor in the alley in the movie Team America: World Police... ____________________________________ Yeah! Chuck
  17. Thank you, again! I appreciate learning things of a positive nature. That is one of the positives for the internet. Don't burn your head! then, they'll call you a hot-head! Chuck
  18. Sure is an ugly lookin critter! I've been meaning to ask you. If a deaf-mute is caught cursing... does his mom wash his hands with soap? I'm not trying to be mean. I heard that on the radio and thought it was funny. Chuck
  19. The boots, or the booty? ____________________________ Oh... uh... yeah! the boots! Chuck
  20. That's a good lookin' pair! Chuck
  21. Thank you and Geordie for that! I appreciate your in-put. I just hope, someone asks me why, we drive on the right... I'm ready for 'em now! Chuck
  22. You may not think you have a grip on life, but you sure are funny! I hope that if you do decide to watch Dr. Phil you can find something of value to you. He can be pretty funny as well; and his jokes are usually at his own expense, like about baldness or something! Cracks me up. __________________________________________ Thank you! I've always liked to laugh and if I can get others to laugh, it makes me feel good. I've heard that Dr. Phil joked about his baldness and was not shy about being humorous. I guess, I'm just going to have to give him one more try!
  23. damn and i thought Bush and blaire were fucking each other ___________________________________ That'd be too easy! Chuck
