If and when I get as good as you guys....I want all my videos to be in super slo motion with mega hits rock playing. I fully intend to have a 4 hour long, super slow, super rad, video of me packing. Ok serious question, Cranium Vs. Wing. What wins? Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Hum....you know after further thought and a few cups of coffee? (not aimed at any one just a general thought so don't get too pissed off) Ladies...why work out? Why dress to impress and why be civil or professional let alone shower or hold back your flatulence? It's all about aggregate supply and aggregate demand. Sure right now you are thinking...SHAH I HATE YOU...but hear me out. Instead of spending time and money on trying to be healthy or professional why not transfer to an industry where the aggregate supply of women is low and the aggregate demand is high...and so is the potential pay. Engineering, Comp Sci or oil well drilling. Yeah, nothing like engineering or comp sci where "If her eyebrows are not connected and she's not wearing sweat pants she's FRACKING HOT!" Photoshop shmoto shop! Hell we are talking pure economic forces here! A girl....well at least she has to have the genetic makeup of a woman...to 10 guys. Hell she can have 2.5 tits, a gimp, lazy eyes, bombastic gas and only speak in shrieking screams (Asian engineering girls...no inside voice)...and odds are she will have a date this Friday night! And odds are the guy will be well spoken, well educated, well dressed and making rather good money and stable. Now I know what you are thinking....and I'll be surprised if you made it this far without screaming at the computer, sticking some more pins in you Dr. Shah voodoo doll and doing your little angry dance and posting some BS quick reply...how dare he be so rude! Well I'm not. I'm just being honest. The reason why photo shop is a major issue is again due to economics and some very basic biology. Economics in that on any newspaper stand there are at least a dozen very attractive women depicted....there is a total lack of the "token fat chick" thus competition is high for your attention. As such drastic measures need to be taken to get your attention. And it's a well known fact, babies like to look at pretty faces more than not so pretty faces. And well I hate to tell you that part of your brain is not dead and is very alive and very active. Now you can scream women's lib and being evolved and "the unattainable" body all you want till you are blue in the face. But you really can't fight with economics and biology. I'm sure if there were more men on the covers of these magazines the percentage of dudes getting photo shopped would be equally as high. But sadly like it or not women buy more magazines than us guys. So it's all about aggregate supply and demand. And if it truly bothers you, and I'm sure it would bother me, consider a career move to where you are of higher aggregate demand. This allows you to forgo a significant level of stress associated with trying to keep up with what is on those magazine covers. Or, with 1-10 girls-guys...just hang out at DZ's and randomly accuse guys of stalking them when it's their on AFF-1. That's always fun to watch. Till then help some of us brothers out. What career is there for a dude where he can just let himself go and still be catnip to the ladies. I have a funny feeling that answer has to do more with wealth than job.

TImBryant No worries, not taken personally. Congrats on 30 years. If I said I was just a little jealous I would be lying. When I first met my x wife I did not have any requirements other than she be nice and fun and left all other things to the gods and chance. Now after an emotionally damaging divorce....I would like to have not had any requirements and again left things to the gods but.....I'm much more risk averse. And I notice that as time goes by in an effort to not lower my standards I adhere to the rules I set up tighter and tighter as if they were some sort of key to maybe one day being like you...happy in a long term relationship. Which is not good, for it puts me in a game of chicken but I've hand cuffed myself to the wheel. Either I'm going to find a person that meets those requirements or I will significantly lower my standards and feel as if I have failed. I did once put up my list, and though some stated that it was rather benign..not calling out exacting measurements nor specifications on behavior...many more spent a good deal of time dissecting it and questioning it and me. Not a fun experience. 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!

It's cool Bryant, such is life. things I needed in a relationship, things I liked and things I could not deal with You seem to have it figured out. Care to share? Or.....no. I %100 understand if you say no. TRUST ME! Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

The final statement marked with an asterisk is a pre emptive so as to prevent any potential shit throwing. I'm in no mood for it and wish to prevent it before it even crosses some one's mind. It appears to be rather effective in preventing threads from being hijacked into "Shah don't know shit" threads. Back on topic, nothing wrong with having a list as long as it is honest.

It's a bit much don't you think? FYI those AlpineStar padded shorts work rather well. Very comfy, keep you from getting a nut under and give you a bit of tail bone protection.

Nothing wrong with knowing what you want. My list is up on my kitchen wall. I knew full well that if I was not careful, due to my work as an engineer and neighborhood where I live, I would capitulate in finding what I know will make me happy. I spent almost 8 years trying to make someone else happy and now it's my turn to be happy. I put it up the day after the x wife walked out. I have only changed the list once. I changed "stable" to "STABLE" after dating a girl who had a bit of a drinking problem. I don't think my "list" is too much. I don't specify hair color, eye color, occupation or financial state. I know what my life is, I know what will make me happy and I know what I don't like. There is nothing wrong with having a list. The problem per my view of the situation is that as we get older the potential of finding someone that fulfills some if not most of what we would like in a life partner drops significantly due to the natural state of the American society. We unlike our European brothers are less social and out networks are not as vast or as vibrant. We tend to work, shop and go home. And this hobby does not lend itself well to single men. *as a pre emptive to prevent any thread hijacking if any of the above offends you go fuck yourself. Who the fuck do you think you are to tell me what does and does not make me happy? Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Everyone thank you. The video is a great idea. And now that every Joe and Jain has a go pro this should be good fun. 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!

you will see people demonstrating flat-out, fastest-forward-speed tracking body positions. Yes I've seen this. Thus why I was on the track dive to learn from watching others. I did well, but I could have done better, as always is the case. I will talk to the coaches and get a video to better understand my body and to be safer in the sky.

It was a sesna jump, just the three of us. The two others have significantly more jumps than I. And I've always liked tracking so we thought why not let's have some fun. I was able to keep up and had a very nice safe jump with awareness of who was ahead and who was below me but I just felt as if I was not tracking at the same speed. And thought I would ask if there was a common ailment to this issue. But also, tracking away from a group of people is an important skill to have and thus I was using this jump as a method to gauge my tracking ability which in my own opinion could be significantly better.

I was going to say...tracking...tunnel? hu? But yes I think you are 100% video of form in flight would be a very nice way of seeing what I'm doing right and wrong. It was also my second jump of the year. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Ah thank you! No I don't mind coached jumps, just don't want to drop all my money on it. But I do see great value in it. Dave, Thank you for the advice I will talk with the coaches at my DZ. I'm sure I'm not doing something right. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Tracking speed. I was on a track dive with a few friends the other night. Very fun, greatly enjoyed it. My question is how does one go about improving their forward tracking speed without a plethora of coached jumps? The reason I say this is because I felt as if I was going significantly slower than I should have. Legs straight out arms back hands flat shoulders forward but I felt as if I was making next to no real gain? Should there be a bit of a slight head down to "Push" forward? Thank you.

The Iran Iraq war cost each side 1million people. It was not a "nice" war. It was dirty very much like WW1. Why this kid did what he did all those years back? And why all those guys did what they did? We can argue that they were being patriotic for it was during a time of war. But in a time of peace? To kill civilians? Bad karma.

You know...I'm rather a non violent Zen individual but....I think I would not just shot him in the head. I would have gone for the ever popular Persian "To the pain" approach. " To the pain means this: The first thing you lose will be your feet. Below the ankle. You will have stumps available to use within six months. Then your hands, at the wrists. They heal somewhat quicker. Five months is a fair average. Next your nose. No smell of dawn for you. Followed by your tongue. Deeply cut away. Not even a stump left. And then your left eye—" "And then my right eye, and then my ears, and shall we get on with it?" the Prince said. "Wrong!" Westley’s voice rang across the room. "Your ears you keep, so that every shriek of every child shall be yours to cherish—every babe that weeps in fear at your approach, every woman that cries 'Dear God, what is that thing?' will reverberate forever with your perfect ears. That is what 'to the pain' means. It means that I leave you in anguish, in humiliation, in freakish misery until you can stand it no more; so there you have it, pig, there you know, you miserable vomitous mass, and I say this now, and live or die, it’s up to you But that's just me Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Yes Iran was once known as Persia. It's name was changed to appease Hitler. Iran = Arian Go figure right? And then the Arabs came in and they really didn't like the Persian culture and really liked the name Iran. So go figure. But yeah, I remember that story from back when I was a little kid in Iran. It was not a fun place to be a kid. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.
