  4. Asking for money for t-shirts, asking for sponsorship...this is starting to sound an awful lot like an advertising thread. You know what happens to those. It becomes a Boobie thread! Actually I did just see a Surender To Gravity t shirt on facebook....i wonder why she hasn't posted it on here? And really no one has any pics of me from Atlanta? How odd?

  5. I had to prove I exist and what I kind of look like. I'm actually more interested in the t shirts. But it's cool. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!
  6. The DZ that I call home now lets out Tandems @ 10.5k and funjumpers & students out @ 13.5k. SMART! Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!
  7. Embarrassment maybe? I want a shirt! I'll wear it! hum....well let's see if any one posts their shirts. If there is enough love for them I'll take orders. I think when I did it last time it was $20 delivered to your door. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

  10. 1785 hits? And not a single tit! Hum....I do need a container. I mean my Tallon is nice but it would be nice to have something modern......hint hint
  11. I'm 175lbs so I'm not at 1:1 yet. However I do have to say back when I was on the 280 I could just find a nice thermal and hang out all day untill the tandems landed. That was nice. But now that I'm on the 220 that seems to be a little harder to do. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

  12. As a new guy, would you advise that we find a nice upwind spot and to into deep breaks and hang out until everyone has landed? Or should we be more aggressive? My home DZ has a good number of tandems on any given load very few fun jumpers I've practiced both with the understanding of the jump masters. I have to say on my newly downsized 220 Navigator, I was on a 260 and a 280 before that, I've noticed that "holding" is a bit more sketchy than before requiring a more steady input so as to keep the parachute inflated. Being aggressive, spiraling down under the traffic, though a bit more fun takes away from any "learning" one does at altitude. Suggestions for the new guys? What has worked for you?

  13. Thank you for keeping this thread civil. My issue with this "working for free" is that as we come to realize that 9% unemployment is the new normal due to increased efficiencies more and more people will become desperate for "work experience" or be led on to believe that if they take one of these "work for free" jobs and work hard enough that they may get a full time full pay job. Which let's face it is not in the best interest of the employer. The best situation for an employer/product manager is to provide the same service, at the same price at the lowest cost to the company. And if some of the grunt work is covered by eager masses than well....we have a problem.

  14. Come on people, we can do 1k hits today! You know you can do it! I have no faith in you what so ever! To any sponsor out there, you know I'm a sure bet! Look at this, what has it been? 48 hours and we are at 1k hits? I do better than B(+)(+)BIES! For product (new or used, right now looking for a jump suit) I will add your company name and hot link to my signature block! And I'll even let you use my likeness for any advertisement. (I'm guessing you will go for an Egg with eyes or maybe an egg shaped happy face.) Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

  15. OK This has been way too funny! 300+ hits! I'm telling you some one needs to sponsor me! For product, I will place your company name and hot link as my tag line! Actually this came from a discussion with friends regarding the permanence of the internet. So I figured I would ask. Who knows ho has what?

  16. In an odd way I've become some sort of adjective. Or maybe a preposition. I've bumped into a few of you and a few of you have received a few of my signature designed shirts, This thread is the place to display photos you have of me or suggestions as to how you would pose if you were to take a photo with me.

  19. The job of any Project Manager is to bring the project in on time and under budget. One of the main constraints to this are finite time and personnel. However with the ability to offer the hungry masses a "free internship" and giving the false hope that maybe these masses will network and maybe one day land a job that paid as a Project Manager personnel and personnel costs are no longer relevant. And please don't think that this only applies to kids who have just graduated. More and more I'm seeing and hiring about offers of people who have MBA's and years of experience being offered these "amazing gigs with no pay" at world renowned non for profit organizations or worse...fortune 500 companies. Now with this availability to this "free" labor pool....any project can come in under beget. Once the project is done, let the free worker go. You never signed a contract nor promised them a darn thing other than "experience" And I as the project manager will not only get a nice pay increase but will be further secure in my job for I have demonstrated value to the company. You the free worker....if you are smart you will have realized that you were just used. If you are very smart and very lucky you may have made a contact or two but odds are those will not pan out. Why should the other person hire you, you have just demonstrated you are willing to work for free. And if not you than someone else will. Welcome to the new normal. Your earning potential has significantly decreased, your taxes have gone up and well....good luck with that.

    OMG OMG WOW!

    Hum...how can I put it? The immage is "good enough" that is to say for the average joe who just takes bad pictures...it is simply good enough. And that's where the real money is IF they can make it cheap enough. For your average joe or camera dude this will be worth it. For someone who's an artist...not.
