  6. _____________________________________ They still make 'em. My first parachute was a Maverone. For an F-111 parachute, with Dacron lines, I really liked it. Compared to what's out there today, the Maverone would be like driving a school bus. I liked the glide and flare of the Maverone. It's a good parachute and pretty responsive for a 250 sq. ft.. Chuck

  10. __________________________________________ Eight Aggies got their pick-up stuck in a flooded river. The three in the cab of the truck escaped by rolling down the windows. The five in the bed of the truck drowned because they couldn't get the tail-gate open! >>>>>>>>>>>>>Chuck runs like hell!>>>> Chuck

  12. I know, you're not by your car now but, when you get a chance, look carefully down both sides of the track and see if it might be out. If it is, try pushing the glass in the opposite direction where it is out (if it is) and it should pop back in. Chuck
  13. This may be a dumb question but, could the glass be out of the track on one side or the other? I've seen that happen. Chuck
  14. The Nylon version, I'm sure you know, get real brittle. I've heard some really ugly stories about them. Supposedly they got brittle in really cold temperatures. Since I was jumping Florida at the time, that didn't worry me too much. It was replaced with a metal handle, and the nylon one is now just a temporary spare for short time use if needed. ____________________________________ Here in West Texas, they'd get brittle from the heat also. To the best of my knowledge, they've been grounded. Chuck
  15. You always find experts on dz.com!

    Help*

    When I had dental work done, my dentist told me to RINSE with salt water. He never said to brush with it. Hope that helps. Now, quit callin' me ugly names... I tried to help! Chuck

  19. You know, I'll bet, we never learn all the facts about JFK's asassination. It just seems funny to me that, after LBJ's death, a letter from him was discovered and (in so many words) stated that we were not going to pull-out of Viet Nam but that there would be an escalation in our efforts there. It was signed "Lyndon Baines Johnson President of The United States" and dated the day before Kennedy's asassination! ???????????????? Chuck
  20. Yeah, and they're for my main canopy deployment. I've also got an old nylon version MB ripcord from way-back, still ready to serve temporarily as a replacement if needed. That's two more things you probably haven't seen in years. ____________________________________ The Nylon version, I'm sure you know, get real brittle. I've heard some really ugly stories about them.

  21. Gordie was a "franchise player" that didn't need anybody to fight his battles for him. He never lost a fight. I saw him this winter when he came to Saskatoon for a special night honoring him at a Saskatoon Blades game. He looks damn good for a man in his mid-70's!! During one of the presentations they lined up for pictures and Gordie was faking elbows to the jaws of the people standing next to him..it was pretty funny. ___________________________________ Neat story! Things were a lot different in Gordie's day! He was pretty good with his elbows and stick. His book is pretty good, too. Lot of good stuff in it . "and... Howe". One of the many cool things Gordie got to do was play professional hockey with his two sons; Mark and Marty. That was the old World Hockey League and they played for the Houston Aeros. One team that was not 'absorbed' by the NHL. The three Howes, recieved 1-million (U.S.D.) a year. Chuck
  22. You make a good point though: it's probably not a good idea to just have them laying in your gear bag on the dirty bottom, loose, with stuff piled all over them. ______________________________________ Martin - Baker ripcord handles? I haven't seen those in use in years! Chuck
  23. __________________________ Yessir! It's a whole 'nother game though, when you're in the door and ready to make a leap. I don't know how to explain it. Chuck
  24. _____________________________________ I know what you mean! Like stepping out in the cattle pens it's like... ahhh! the smell of $$$! Chuck
  25. ________________________________________ Maybe, it's the sentimentalist in me but, Forsberg (when he's healthy) can be magic on ice with a stick and puck. Marty McSorley was a 'goon's goon'! Some of his actions on ice were shy of a 'felony'. I think, he was charged with one! I believe, the days of 'goon squad' hockey are gone. I think, we'll be seeing higher scoring games and a lot less blood on the ice. One of the slickest players of the game, for causing injuries to other players, was Gordie Howe! He rarely got caught. I'll see, how I feel about the 'new' hockey next June. Chuck
