Beware your own shadow.

Okay, since we are drifting, your link lead me to this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6w0r-ScEG4&feature=related WTF I laughed my ass off.

Can I come crash on your couch? How did you know she has a strap on?
-
I didn't much care for the song, but I checked her bio. Yep, 16, and she's a local girl, Ocean Shores, WA, about 40 minutes from the DZ. She looks a little jaded already. She's 16 going on thrice divorced. Weird life she's got already. Weird doesn't begin to describe it. http://www.twirlit.com/2011/06/21/doug-hutchinson%E2%80%99s-mother-in-law-supports-marriage-to-16-year-old-daughter/

And why would He create someone who would do nothing but spend his entire life being rebellious, arrogant, and ungrateful towards Him, hating and cursing Him with every breath? And yet, would die for that person anyway... Amazing! That did not happen.

Sounds like he died driving fast and taking chances. If by getting drunk, and speeding, risking the lives of innocent people, then yes. I may be speaking too soon, but I'm sure tox reports will show the same, considering his twitter post earlier in the evening. Drunk driving deserves no sorrow. My remark was not one of admiration and I offered him no sorrow.

He has a sister? Do you have a picture? I might have done her.

any really short skydivers out there???

Is that a short joke? Nope. If you stick around, you will see familiar faces wherever you go. There are not that many people for whom skydiving is a lifestyle, and you are likely to jump with a lot of them if you get out and about. Blue skies, Winsor I agree. In fact I have met you (and jumped with you) on more than one occasion. Actually you showed me a way to fold my pilot chute many years ago that I still use. -

At 53" you are likely to be stuck with custom gear as your only option. I have known people to be able to use "children" sizes for some sport gear, but skydiving does not have a large assortment of gear sized for youngsters. Also, there is the issue of weight. Scaled against a low-fat person my size, you are talking under 75#, and most canopies are designed for more of a load than that is going to provide. Openings are likely to be softer than the same canopy with a higher loading, pressurization will be less, speeds are going to be slower, and low-speed handling is going to be different. Be advised that when you get on the small end of the spectrum, scaling performance gets decidely nonlinear. 2:1 loading under a 60 is going to be greatly different than under a 120, and 1:1 loading under a 100 is going to be quite different than under a 200. Do not take much for granted, and play with any canopy up high before you see what it does near the ground (a good policy in general). The bottom line is that you are likely to be enough outside the envelope that many rules won't quite apply. The good news is that there are jumpers out there who are well shy of 5', and much can be learned from their success in the sport. If you stick around, you will get to know them - it is a small community. Blue skies, Winsor Is that a short joke? -

KFC is not a place you should go if you are: A. vegetarian B. diabetic C. on a diet It ain't rocket science people, but it is delicious fried chicken and that's a beautiful thing ;) Two out of three aint bad. I don't think it's chicken.

Quoted from a t-shirt "You’re not short… you’re fun sized!" I am 6'1" -
On the money. Her running her fingers through my hair can put me into a trance like state but never to sleep. Hey Skymama, you didn’t start the haircut with a happy ending did you? If you did it’s no wonder he fell asleep.

Pull tabs on cans. Pull tabs on steel cans.

Sweet.

So far he's been good. If we let him sleep all day he's real playful at night and loves running around us and climbing all over and shitting. FIFY

Got some bodies you need to move?

That same summer of '54, when I had the paper route, I saved up some money & went up the street to a local store and bought a used Remington single-shot 22 cal rifle; just hand over the money & take it home. The rifle cost me $5 and the cleaning kit for it cost me $7.50. My folks, who both grew up on farms in North Dakota, never said a word when I brought it home. JerryBaumchen Bought my first shotgun at the local Woolco. paid more than $5 though. .
