  3. Gosh, for awhile there, I thought you wanted to meet me more than once. When people meet ME - Once is usually enough. Ain't that the truth!

  6. You'll find that the #26 needle probably won't fit in the machine and that your smaller needles will not work too well with 5 cord. You MIGHT be able to swing FF and possibly 3 cord with that machine, but I'm willing to bet 5 will be too much for it to handle. Even if you could, you'd probably have to spend a long time winding new bobbins. ETA: This is the difference in size between I believe a #22 and a #25 or #26.

  7. Came in really handy for keeping contact with family and friends while I was deployed or otherwise moved from home/cell phones. Just kind of kept it, most of my friends are probably skydivers now though.

  8. I didn't know that's what they're called but I Googled the word 'quadcopter' and this popped right up. Looks exactly like what he had. I know back in the day we had the el-cheapo radio shack remote controlled cars and me being the 'strange' one of the family, I had a CB radio. I learned what frequency on the CB I could use to control the cars (by using different tones I could convince the cars to go forward or turn). Now, I'm sure the quad is probably using some other frequency and jamming signals isn't something the FCC or fire rescue guys would appreciate... I was just hoping you would say one of the fire fighters 'accidentally' hit the quad with the hose and it fell into the house.

  9. You only get in trouble if you get caught. That being said, most of the people I've seen get in any trouble and have their clearances bounce were because of financial issues or alcohol incidents. Of course, the new signal officer in charge of my detachment getting a DUI didn't help the problem any, though it was funny that he couldn't follow us into some of the rooms.

  10. I've heard TI's promote that method. I used it as much as I could, helps with hard pulls too. Both of my shoulders have gone to the point that I was in extreme pain and very worried about the possibility dislocation, so I quit doing tandems, started physical therapy and slowed my jumping. They were fine for a while but have started to give me issues again, so I'm going to get back to the PT exercises I had been doing. Doc said it'll probably be something that I'll have to do forever and I didn't believe him...

  13. There was a similar system (lower number is more important) in Lebanon. We were working with the guys that had the low number plates. People tend to get a bit more respect and their way on the roads with those plates. (including blowing checkpoints and saying 'fuck you, look at the plate' as they go past the guards threatening to shoot.) Damn. Makes Delaware's plate system look like child's play. We weren't aware of this when that event happened and were only informed of it later. We didn't speak much Arabic but we could tell things were getting a little dicey. Our guys explained what went down shortly afterwords.

  15. gearless_chris wardhessig klingeme Sunshine iluvtofly Tony-tonysuits skittles of SDC skymama BillyVance CSpenceFLY skydivecat turtlespeed trigirl trunk Stole your list because I'm lazy and can't really remember peoples names on here half the time. Funny story about meeting Trunk. I flew to Sebastian on the 1st this year and it was just crummy weather (talking 400' overcast with rain). Trunk was walking around asking people for a ride to Melbourne to pick up his rental car. I figured it would be a nice opportunity to check out the Melbourne airport... so I flew us there, grabbed a crew car at the FBO and drove him to his rental place. Not a bad way to start the year if ya ask me.

  16. I would've failed miserably. I had a 10k and a Bobcat on my mil license (only one in my section with them) and let me tell ya... A dime off a smooth concrete floor would've shut me up.

  18. Yes, ALMOST. I have my priorities straight. I'm thinking it was Cyndi... and she might have been a LITTLE drunk. "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  19. Dude is tall and built like a brick house. A friend and I flew into Spaceland one day and met him out there. Too bad I didn't get much time to hear all of his stories. Of course, with as many as he has, that would take a LONG time! Met BillyV at Fitz. He was asking Cyndi or Jo if I was around the boogie, I was standing right next to her so she just pointed right at me and gave it away. Met Turtle at the same Fitz, he didn't have any clue who I was till I gave away that he bought an iPhone from me prior to it. What can I say? I can blend in and not be noticed. Speaking of which, I hear Bolas is getting hitched in St Pete, FL in May, should get a group of drunk jumpers to crash the wedding.

  22. Oddly, I have a mutual friend with a girl named Monica Castillo that appears to be the correct age and goes to school in NY. Wonder who was 'riding' up front?

  24. Too bad it wasn't "wreckless". I think you meant "reckless." Sorry, I just enjoyed the irony of that one too much. In a case like that, I'm really glad the copilot survived. Too many right seaters have been wrongly killed by A$$hats sitting in the left seat. Well, up till that point, it was wreck-less.
