wow...that is quite a statement. i don't need 50% of the people in this sport to die before i want to see a change...even one is enough for me hmm wasnt the "if it saves a single life its worthwhile" in the death of Common Sense thread?? sorry but until you can decisively show that more people are being hurt than are learning to fly without such graphic lessons regulation is unwarranted and punishes those who can and do learn and seek knowledge for the sake of a handful who could not... OK, good to see you have life figured out by 14. Your parents were rock stars. I'll give them a silver star for exposing you to the horrors of the world. Now, can we get back to the real issue? that is the REAL issue. Far to many people think death and injury is something that doesnt, cant, wont happen to them, well guess what? They are wrong and once they recognize that fact and accept its consequences then they can begin to decide what risks are acceptable for THEM. Instead we get threads like this, and cry to the skies because "life shouldnt be like this..." and "we have to do something to stop these people from hurting themselves..." No. What you have to do is accept that beyond the age of 18 YOU are the only one responsible for deciding what risks YOU take, you can learn, listen and observe everything and do your best to stay alive and enjoy YOUR passions as long as possible or you can continue blissfully along thinking nothing will touch you and yours until the day your illusions are torn away... far to many people have been weened with exactly those illusions as a safety blanket and cant seem to cope very well when people (and people they care about) die in the real world, and so scream, kick their heels and cry about how life should be endlessly regulated to prevent their personal pain... whats that? sounds like the wammmbulance again..... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

not when such 'partial solution' regulation affects the pursuit of happiness and enjoyment of those who do not fall into such obvious traps...learn or die but keep it the f#^k off my wave until the number of significant injuries and deaths exceeds the number of people who were/are aware enough of the risks to not make them stupidly.. as i've said before maybe big bold letters on the waiver will help stifle all the wammbulance sirens who cant accept that another’s risk level may exceed their own, and that perhaps people ARE willing to take risks and accept consequences you might find unacceptable.. you can always live YOUR life on the couch, just dont expect everyone to want to sit there with you... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

if your goal in life is "eat, sleep, work, breed, die" then you have serious issues...unfortunately far to many sheeple think thats actually called "Life". ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

to bad...the more people you have participating in any activity, the more injuries and fatalities you will have, simple math. If you dont like the results then get into a sport that is more forgiving of those who make mistakes, and encourage those you care about to do the same. If your going to risk YOUR life, do it in any manner YOU chose...and accept the consequences of failure, both in yourself and in those you care about who also take the same risks.. if anyone doesnt know what death is by the time they are 14 then their parents didnt let them out enough and perhaps they should take up the issue with them? instead of blaming someone else for their lack of education and basic observational skills..physics doesnt change as your jump numbers increase...anyone who cant see and understand the results of high speed impact with an imovable object probably shouldnt be driving either.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

'God' is so far beyond simple concepts of gender that your statement is laughable and childishly naïve, but of course being tied to the mythos of a misogynistic culture you are incapable of imagining a divinity that isn’t confined by such petty human distinctions. the "god" who created you is not described in what refer to as ‘his word’, that word containing a description of god imagined, reinvented, and manufactured thru continual editing, cut and pasting, the mythos of multiple pre-Israelite tribes (not to mention numerous Mesopotamian /Arkadian/Sumerian influences where your foundational myth originally appeared) who as can be plainly seen from modern CNN, have no monopoly on truth or salvation... Nor do your gospels create a god, they simply reinvented one from previous mythologies, but hey if your belief in that mythos helps you sleep comfortably at night with Jehovah watching over you then more power to you...pretending you have the only path to light, truth and divinity is however mistakenly, ignorantly arrogant.. SEARCH and you will see that all the answers are not written in your continually edited work of man, wisdom it may contain however Truth belongs to everybody and you can do it all without submitting yourself to the guilt of christianity...when you look with your own eyes, hear the voice of life with your own ears, unclouded by the words of men whos feet never left the ground, and lack the basic understanding of how things really work an enterprising 8 year old now has... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

very cool....weather here is grey and continually sucking except for the few moments of blue sky when i cant possibly get to the dz...hope to be out there thurs 3/4 of the dropzone was at perris recently but i imagine you made your usual impression

Primus will be sucking in Seattle on Oct 26th..and i will be there to experience it (yet again)... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

THAT word is blindfold of of a single culture and a bloody guilt ridden one at that, Her creation can be experienced directly and his word heard by those with ears to hear. The meaning is the same without tying you to 'sin' and guilt in some cosmic crime of your hypothetical ancestors. leave the chain of your dogma behind and understand that the words 'false' and 'god' are mutually exclusive. or have you no faith in creation and direct experience? no carpenters blood is necessary for your 'salvation' when you were never lost.....

nah.. White Zombie has way more funk and movie camp influences than Ministry who really takes themselves far to seriously and should hire at least one drummer who can keep good time without a metronome taped to his head...... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

only a fool cannot plainly see the words men write, in the name of 'god', serve only the desires of man and his culture and so seperate you from the experience of divinity Frisbeeatarian - the belief that when you die your soul flies up to the roof and gets stuck ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

was actually talking to a liquor store clerk who was saying how fast they sold out during a promise keepers convention...very nearly went down the way to find out if the hookers business had increased as well during the same time frame...would have been an interesting study... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

this is the first lesson..never point it at anything you dont intend to shoot, never shoot at anything you dont intend to kill... rather simple concepts, all aquired without recourse to any government sanctioned 'training program' which just like drivers ed classes would do little to affect the way in which people actually drive ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

of course its equally likely he could 'pick up the crusade'with renewed vigor. "look what happened to me, you shouldnt be allowed to do what i did, its for your own good you see" etc.....

well since you cant sell canopies & containers to 12 year olds like skateboards, snowboards and bmx bikes your not going to get much corp backing for your "new" name... and I think Chuteless is probably one of the only people who can really claim "Xtreme Skydiving" ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

he's definitely a poet with a voice, but I like many people would have been pissed about him passing out and falling off stage repeatedly during multiple perfomances where they paid money to see them play.....completely unprofessional.... heya Sky is that the "Zappa Crappa" pic you've got for your avatar? i love it...Zappa's look is pure evil....no one likes being surprised on the shitter... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
