  1. RaD, K00L, SWeeT!!1!!LoL! ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  2. You left off my choice, the Infinity from VSE. If that were not available, then a Mirage G4. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  3. Never heard of Olbermann before, but this is a thoughtful message.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4xfMisqab8 ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  4. That's right. Base jumpers jump from 400 feet. NOT skydivers. And you don't need an airplane to base jump. This would be classified as a skydive not a base jump due to the use of an airplane. Why not just get a crane and jump off that if they are so intent on doing this? Or a tethered balloon? That would be considered a aircraft wouldn't it According to the FAA, it's not. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

  6. Ditto that. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  7. Being a good person to YOURSELF is first and foremost, and does pay off. If you hold to your values and truths, you'll be ahead of someone who doesn't. The reward is not monetary, it can't be measured, but it is what allows you to sleep at night. Because humans are animals, one can not assume they are going respond any different than animals when placed under the same stresses. As the world becomes more populated, and resources are spread more thinly, people will instinctively do what is needed to secure their "piece". There is no "karma, or justice", simply reality. Eventually the "justice of nature" will eliminate the human race as the resources get too thin, and even then live will still attempt to survive. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  8. May does not equal must. This country will meet it's end not at the tip of a blade, but simply though the failure of it's citizens to comprehend the English language. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  9. Maintaining the Electoral College will in effect maintain the dominance of the two party system, where a significant portion of the voting population is really under or miss represented. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  10. Nothing wrong with buying new gear right off, it's what I did. It's more expensive and you'll loose more in depreciation, but if you've got the money to play with (and that's what money is for, right) then make yourself happy and buy new.
  11. So you're saying I don't look cool? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  12. Nowhere in life is neutral, and if parents don't like the way their child is being taught, take some action. Put them in a private school or home school, and teach them to think for themselves. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  13. http://www.willflyforfood.cc/airlinepilotpay/ ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  14. They will if you teach them those things, and it is quite possible, to teach them in the 6 to 8 minutes a tandem spends under canopy the first jump. I do it just about every tandem jump. They do learn, and many do remember. Some learn the what is being taught the first time, and some need to be refreshed a few times, but they all learn, even if its just the fact that they CAN learn how to do this. For the record, my fist time tandem students are involved in flying and navigating the canopy from as soon as I can gt the toggles to them, to somewhere between 1000 and 700 feet, and if they are particularly "switched on" we may land the parachute together. It's what I've found works for me. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  15. Offers more separation between parachutists when putting out two rows/sticks simultaneously. Make for a faster mass drop, more men in a smaller area, and less time spent over target. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  16. I've been waiting to do that for the longest time and I missed it! ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  17. I help out with these sorts of problems all the time. Here is my proposals to you.

I am waiting your urgent response ASAP. My Regards to you. Mr Abba Musa ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  18. I find that highly irritating. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  19. No, but then I still believe this is a skydiving oriented website. Silly me. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  20. IMO if you're not ready to skydive, you're not really ready for the tunnel. To often it is assumed the tunnel is a "safer" alternative, and it's not. It's got different dangers than jumping from an airplane, but it can be just as taxing on the body, and a collision with the wall can easily aggravate injuries that have not fully healed yet. It is important that you discuss any previous injuries with a tunnel instructor, preferably one with experience. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  21. All that is wrong in the world and this is what is on people's minds. I have very little hope for the human race, no matter who is in the White House. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  22. This was not a "landslide" by any definition of the word. It was a majority and a commanding victory in terms of Electoral College votes, but was not a "landslide" in the popular vote. People will spin it however they feel best about it. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  23. I didn't want to sound too edumacated. Ah ha. Stooping to the level of those Prop 8 supporters. It could work. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  24. You to young to remember Quayle? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  25. Er... that would be "Bob and I" and "Jane and I". ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
