There are about 10 different version I found online. But I explained that in previous emails. Never knew you to be insulting as I always thought you were perfect. You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

Has your higher IQ still not noticed that you've got your Churchill quote totally back-asswards? I Know it's been pointed out to you before... That quote is one of several versions I read, but regardless of how the words are re-arranged, is still conveys the point he was making. Who said anything about having a high IQ? I was just sitting here with Billy Weber and looking for some fun, we were trying to see how much trouble a simple sentence could cause. I'm disappointed, I was looking forward to more insults.

Might have time coming up this summer, but I know as well as you do it takes a lot of time and effort. Makin a living comes first though. Hats off to all the guys and gals who manage those sites. You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

You can't get poor working class people to vote Republican, that requires a mindset with a higher IQ. You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

Figured he meant Bicycle when he said Goldbond, not motorcycle! Actually over 700 bicyclists are killed in the US every year and bike injury stats are under-reported, because the police often don't even bother to write up a report if the cyclist or bicycle isn't seriously injured. I pass these bikes all the time and wonder if they realize they're trusting their lives in several ways; ex: seniors, drunks, shit drivers, and worst of all, skydivers on their way to the DZ You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

Actually the rain showers in the summer come almost every day, but they don't last long. What will kill you on a motorcycle here are the old drivers who are brain-dead. Not wanting to include every senior citizen, just the ones that let their brains go to mush (non-skydivers). Remember, this group is the most dangerous out there.

Here are some DZ's of the past.interesting stories. I was affiliated with Hebron where the Land of Lincoln Skydiving Club was located but I didn't come on until 1972. http://www.searchour.net/lofl/history-sd.htm You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

Tea Party protesters heckle man with Parkinson’s
captain1976 replied to skymiles's topic in Speakers Corner
Well put. At least Tea Party members are doing something to take back the Government gone bad. It takes a lot of effort, block by block, town by town and I fully support them You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime -
Which is starting to function on this issue judging by the reports coming out of slanted data and bad science from the fear mongers. Problem is that the global warming activist are so emotionally (and financially) invested in the the whole glaciers going world's ending mindset that they are unwilling to consider that they may be looking at the wrong picture or looking at the picture wrongly. Yes, sounds like Liberals You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

And the reality of politically motivated, grant sucking researchers is still in full force too. You said it. Most of this garbage science comes from that sector who's main goal is to keep the government money coming in creating job security. Thus giving Scientists the same credibility as the US Government.

A review of history shows how much climate changes and that current conditions are not unique in any way. The real revelation is the degree to which people have been misled on the issue. But where there is money and politicians (dysfunctional people who can't get a real job), there is sure to be fraud. Any climatic change has nothing to do with people and their use/abuse of the earth. We couldn't do it if we tried. What I fail to understand is that people actually believe what they are being told. The US Government has no credibility as proven time and time again. My only concern is how natural climate change effects skydiving weather.

Actually its no mine to give. I though I had it in my trunk and was going to speak with the person who owns it, but its his decision and I think he will agree that it belongs in the museum. You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

First, let them purge every solitary priest or Brother who sexually abused children, or enabled it by aiding the cover-up. (Probably includes the big Guy, too). Next, let them pay compensation to every single victim of said sexual abuse, without hiding behind long-expired statutes of limitations, as they have done. Next, let them purge every single nun, priest, brother, etc. who gleefully was physically violent with children they were "teaching" or supervising, in the name of ...uh... oh, yeah - "discipline". Next, let them drop the rule commanding celibacy for priests, nuns and brothers, which has manifested itself in the de facto recruiting of some of the most emotionally and psycho-sexually crippled people into those vocations, a disproportionate sampling of whom are, themselves, gay. When they do that, they can have the moral foundation to presume to "teach what is morally right" and dictate how the laity lives in the privacy of their own homes. Until then, they can eat shit.

I agree with the Church/School. Allowing children known to be living in a household which goes against the teachings of what is morally right, sends a wrong message to the other kids and their families. You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

There is a website that promotes skydivers doing business with other skydivers. Can anyone tell me the name of it? Thanks You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

I will see about giving it to the museum. What do ya think? Should I wait and give it to the new UPSA museum when it opens? Mike You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

I'm going to (gasp!) agree with you on this. I have no issue with the cops getting DNA with a warrant. I have no issue with them getting it from convicted criminals. I don't see how they have the right to take it from somebody for being arrested. Agreed I have my prints on record for two issues Once Arrested for public intox as a passenger in a car where the operator was arrested for a DUI. Subsequently thrown out by the Iowa SC (not my case specifically) and I only paid court costs and spent a night in jail and my record is supposed to have been cleared (never checked) Second set taken for a back ground check to have an on track license for the Prairie Meadows racing track in Des Monies. Got no problem if there have been a conviction or a warrant has been issued. But for just being arrested WTF??? This falls right in line with the FBI child fingerprint program. Totally bogus, it was designed right from the start to get as many fingerprints on record as possible. It was done so under the disguise of protecting children. The retired FBI agent who told me about this fraudulent program said that the odds of it even helping a single child was remote.

Been in the sport a long time and I agree with you. Also been involved with a lot of other groups but skydivers are unique and I only seen a few jerks out there but they don't last long. You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

California man gets eight years for stealing cheese
captain1976 replied to dreamdancer's topic in Speakers Corner
Its starting to look like the whole "Escape from New York, Escape From LA" thing is starting to look better and better. /reply] That really might be a great idea, but even better would be an island prison/factory that effectively creates production. Let them pay their own way. In previous centuries criminals were simply eliminated, now we simply cage them at a tremendous cost.

It may be a great business idea for some entrepreneur out there. Maybe a fast food chain can do some test marketing on the idea, and it might lead to a new meaning for the "hot dog". You live more in the few minutes of skydiving than many people live in their lifetime

Can you believe that China is actually thinking about banning eating dogs and cats? Beijing's dog restaurants are really a treat and most popular is the combo sandwich. Its in the theme of veal and consists of kittens served with grilled onions and some kind of doggy gravy. Seems some of the pet lovers are protesting that it was hypocritical to protect only dogs and cats, and that the government should focus on human welfare before protecting animals. Where proponents think any ban is absurd and question why only cats and dogs and not pigs, cows and sheep. My kitty just walked by, makes my mouth water.
