I need to start a Bureau of Acronym Control ("we got your BAC") to avoid this confusion think the government will fund me?... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

I'm ok with Vanilla coke, the pepsi is just vile...but then pepsi is vile anyway i friend left a few "Blue Skies" Vanilla creme sodas in my fridge, i'd never been a fan of creme sodas but when there was nothing else left i drank one and DAMN was it good... now i just have to figure out where he got them because the local groc doesnt carry them.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

I would like to see a forum for....
Zenister replied to sangiro's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
i can understand the use of "keeping the noise down" and i think a riggers forum would be a very useful learning tool, particularly for lurking information junkies like me, but i would suggest a "ask a rigger" feature that would allow non riggers to post questions to that forum... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -
usually the dive 'ends' at 5k, at that point I like to make a quick head count to determine where everyone is before transitioning to a track at 4-4.5k in an ideal dive everyone stays on level the whole time (or endevours to get back on level there before break off) but every dive is not ideal... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Baaah, testosterone overload - side effect of skydiving?
Zenister replied to vonSanta's topic in The Bonfire
its not testosterone overload, although that might be the way it manifests it self for you, ita lack of oxygen.. i've observed it in several skydivers I was living with and had it pointed out in me on occasion as well...sometimes other activities can mask the symptoms, but once your hooked your fucked.... welcome to the disease.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -
And I'm positive the inability to control the car was a result of the weed. be as 'positive' as you wish, but thats all it is, a wish, an assumption without actual evidence to back it..what you call 'data points' are not data at all, they are simple occurances. you might as well say the coin came up heads twice why didnt it come up heads the third time?? ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

What You Think You Know About Sept. 11 … but don't.

one continually wonders why you expect any better of the machine whose primary use is to keep the sheep docile and happy... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -
nope they died as a direct result of their inability to control their car. end of story. you are miss applying the word "cause" and you have no evidence that the car wreck would not have happened if they hadnt been smoking. sure its nice to have a scapegoat other than the driver, but if your looking for blame put it where it really lies. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

perhaps, but i'm thinking off at 0730 sleep till 1200-1300, jump till 1700-1800 sleep till 2000 go back to work, rinse repeat as fundage allows... lucky bastage... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

its "suspension of disbelief" unfortunately most modern writers (and all hollywood types) cant be bothered to do enough research to at least allow the passing enthusiast of anything shown as entertainment to do so..they go with the simple, the easy because their target audience is in most cases completely ignorant of the reality behind the fiction i cant watch most fantasy/action (anything with swords in it) because modern actors have never learned basic fencing/sword play the way the used to and its to much bother to hire a technical advisor to help the "get it right" the last few Star Wars travesties are fine examples of using a sword (like device) like a broomstick and yet we are supposed to believe these are the premier warriors of the age....pleeeease..i know 12 year old that could hand these fools their heads... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

oh yea! that little girl tracks flat and really fast when she wants too, i had been getting lazy with my track until she started leading....we were having so much fun (docked on her ankles and she was making big S turns whipping me around the sky) that we forgot to look down ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. -

wait till you get to play in the corporate world. Thats exactly what you do..set your own goals and behaviors then evalute how well you acheived your goals...graded on a Met Expectations, Exceeded Expectations etc scale...so of course if you write things like "take extended lunch hours over and above the needs of hunger" you'll easily succeed in exceeding them.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
