you have far more faith in the government and its "concern" for the rights of the individual than i. Its a creeping oppression, but its surely there. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

not sure what firewall system your using, but on my home system its "allow all" that one change fixed the picture loading problem. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

when you "upgraded" it probably changed the settings in your firewall software. You may have to go in and tell your firewall that the new IE prog is allowed unrestricted access. i got "upgraded" too..took me a bit to figure out why nothing would show the way it was supposed to.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

0:6:1 Watched andy & lukas play with a para-glider and a 4 wheeler while we were waiting for the clouds to clear. talk about flat turns! can you say 360* spirals under a hundred feet?? 1st time landing waaay "off" the dz, right along with everyone else. in a nice large field a few miles from the usual landing area. lots of kids playing baseball in the field next our landing area ran over to talk and ask questions (un?)fortunately the skies cleared over Kapowsin Field so we landed at the usual spot for the rest of the loads. Its a bit of a ride back to the DZ but a great alternate landing area. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

grrr that really blows. sounded like you were really psyched to be outta there... so if you cant move to miami move somewhere else... I hear the pacific northwest gets really nice this time of year. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Lost Prairie, ....... think you'll wanna air out your freefly suit some there?

you can never step into the same river twice. enjoy it for what it is, or walk another land. brooding about what is and was not does little to affect what will be. for what its worth the people who knew me in high school well enough to remember my name still talk to me in one form or another, most of them did not or will not bothering to visit the institutions to which we were confined for the better part of our lives for any reason ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

my wanna be BASE jumper .02 is you have to walk away from it for it to count for anything. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

ja Square2 rents all the gear you need. I cant remember what the price was for a full rig. I guess it depends on how many jumps you want to make? its pretty much as fast as you can pack at Eloy when the weather is nice. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

weather bug currently says 66deg N 0mph avg NE 7mph gust for Eloy with nothing on radar there i bet otters are running. as opposed to here in WA where the clouds look to be at 3K so..nothing but H&Ps so far and i really need some more altitude

oh yeah everything was always better than it is now amazing how nostalgia only focuses on the "good" things that are “worse” now and never on all the bad things that are better what was the average number of jumps per year made when this hypothetical woman was born? anyone wanna wager that there are dropzones that do that in a week now? right & wrong are just as subjective as better & worse. No two-sided system is ever completely accurate. All things change. You can never step in the same river twice. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

You seem to be forgetting that he is the CinC of the Armed Forces....He has the RIGHT to use any military asset that he wants as long as it is in the performance of his job...And yes it was cool....Now if you want to bitch, how about all the rides the Blue Angels/Thunderbirds give to people? Or a 300.00 ashtray? The incumbent will always have better "photo ops" of him DOING HIS JOB.... Ron really?? so you dont have any issues with a president using your tax money to help get reelected? what if you didnt vote for him in the first place? (which i did but) the other examples are fraud, waste and abuse. I've bitched (and reported) about such misuse before. Aircraft rides are given to LOTS of people for publicity, support & recruiting purposes OF THE SERVICE, not for any one individual. did you know they actually turned the carrier just so the california coastline wouldnt be in the shot?? (wind was not a factor) sorry but its his JOB as CinC to congratulate the troops for doing THEIR job. Its not part of his job to exploit their efforts for his own personal political gains. I have no issues with what he did, i will have issues if the use that as a reelection ad. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

as with BikerBabe (waves) I've landed crosswind many times at the main area at Eloy, and i was doing downwind H&Ps last weekend just for fun & practice. I've also done a few at the main area in Eloy when a swoop god with a tiny napkin set the pattern that way The army gave me a pretty good (and pretty instinctual) PLF, so i'm not really worried if i had to "roll one in". Its a much more appealing option than a hard low turn. 260 jumps ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

AZ in aug isnt bad, you just have to like early mornings

High-> 2x13k after five this afternoon at Kapowsin. some nice freefly even with the 'rohjambu' game on exit low-> nearly losing at 'rohjambu' on exit ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

uh maybe you shoulda moved to the right lane as he was approaching before his license plate vanished under your trunk ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

DAMNNNNN that was such a pretty mustang too..that really blows.. since your looking check out Subaru. they have quite a few nice variants right now. Also the new VWs are pretty slick, Golfs are a little small for me but the Jettas are cool..get the TDI (? diesel) and your gas mileage will kick! my roommate once made it from PHX to Perris, jumped and played in Cali for the weekend and drove back..all on one tank ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

uh not for personal gain he doesnt, using images from his visit to the Lincoln in a re-election ad campagin would certainly count as personal gain, and is grossly unfair to anyone running against him who lacks access to such great photo ops. Bummer for them.... i guess in the interests of fair campaigning then you'd support the use of our tax dollars so EVERY candidate could have his/her picture taken on an active Aircraft carrier?? and have a "neeto cool" fighter landing to show too?? sorry, i pay far to much tax as is, if you want the photo op (no matter who you are) you should pay for it out of your own pockets (or the pockets of those who support your campaign) ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

apparently the concept of "slow traffic move right" has completely missed the Pacific Northwest.. anytime your being passed on the right side you really should get whacked with the clue stick.. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

no flat fliers so its a Freefly formation right? ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

yup just found that one..unfortunately i'm still waiting on higher to decide if i'll be in LO then or not.... ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

werent the others we were drinking (i forget the name) like W9000 each?? MUCH more tasty than OB or "Hiteiken" ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

i'm sorry. will this one make ammends? i guess i shouldnt post the pictures of her and another redhead in the tub eh? ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
