What I don't get is how this tool complied with the deputy who wanted to shoot his dog!???? He's worse than the idiot deputy in my mind. Show me a note from the judge, please.... Have a damn back bone. *** no shit !!! deputy dipshit needs a asskicking at the very least. the fool that let him do it shouldnt have ever bred... poor damn dog. fuck thats messed up. if the dog was in the act of menacing/attacking someone then it would be different, but this was a execution.

About those people who check your Evite daily but don't respond...

This is another indirect attack at skyride isnt it? When are you people going to get over yourselves? *** W.O.W, are you completely mental? your trolling is getting sloppy now. Roy They say I suffer from insanity.... But I actually enjoy it. -
I operated the radio when i worked for skydive Yakima, had a student misfire while he was on final at about 200' (sentinel) when the reserve inflated, round 28' phantom it tipped back as the foreward speed began towing it, the main (raven 4) tipped foreward then they swung together and he landed - damn good plf too I could have been much worse if it had been a ram air reserve, or perhaps the two would have flew just fine... toss the dice not sure what a cross braced and highly loaded canopy would end up doing if a round basically stopped its normal flight speed,...

No. For that we have to stop manufacturing guns for the general public to buy. Guns should be made accesible to military and cops. When you take guns off market, they become harder to acquire, even for criminals. Gun bans dont work, because they dont take guns out of circulation. *** You do realise that not all the guns are made in one country right? so a ban and confiscation would accomplish nothing. although it worked really good for Hitler Roy They say I suffer from insanity....

ok, on my way home from the friday after work beer with the co workers, a city cop with lights blazing cruising at at least 50 (in a 35) ...... nobody but me put on the signal and pulled over... he had to dodge quite a few morons in their vehicles.... (disclaimer) - as a rule I dont like cops, but I have several that are law enforcement officers, I find that most carry an attitude that I find totally unacceptable to be around -- its the their god, your not attitude... BUT!!! for crying out loud, at the time they have their lights on and are heading toward trouble, GIVE THEM ROOM!!! shit... they just might be heading to help someone you know.... fuck I hate people Roy They say I suffer from insanity....

Sooooo..... You traded your Tempo for a new girlfriend who is now your ex???? *** LOL - I knew someone would say something.. she bought a rig off ebay with a micro raven in it, I didnt want her on it at over a 1-1 wingload, so I swapped her my tempo for her raven.... I shoulda requested it back when we split (not that she would have traded anyhow) I miss my tempo the raven is really stall happy, but it works.

Tempo's do their job, they get you to the ground in one piece, I have 3 rides on two different tempo's, all were quick on heading openings, both flew straight, they turn like a skybarge, but the landings were fine, but dont expect it to land like a zp canopy. You should ask the people who are bashing it how many tempo's they have jumped, most will respond none, and are just repeating the same bullshit that someone else said. At a 1-1 wingloading it will be slow, stable and easily landed If you find a rigger that won't pack it, find a better rigger. I would still be using a tempo if I hadnt made a bad trade (freaking girlfriend) -ex now thank gawd Roy They say I suffer from insanity.... But I actually enjoy it.

Don't you just love extreme religion? It would be nice if the bible thumpers practiced what they preached. Self rightous assholes.

its a personal choice. I accept the risk of not having one, I have nothing against them and recommend them to students when the question of gear choices come up, but prefer to rely on myself.

5 MINUTE MANAGEMENT COURSE Lesson 1: A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings. The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob , the next-door neighbor. Before she says a word, Bob says, "I'll give you $800 to drop that towel. " After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob After a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves. The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, "Who was that?" "It was Bob the next door neighbor," she replies. "Great!" the husband says, "did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?" Moral of the story : If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure. Lesson 2: A priest offered a Nun a lift. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg. The priest nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. The nun said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?" The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?" The priest apologized "Sorry sister but the flesh is weak." Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129 ...It said, "Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory." Moral of the story: If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity. Lesson 3: A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, "I'll give each of you just one wish." "Me first! Me first!" says the admin clerk. "I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world." Puff! She's gone. "Me next! Me next!" says the sales rep. "I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life." Puff! He's gone. "OK, you'! re up," the Genie says to the manager. The manager says, "I want those two back in the office after lunch." Moral of the story: Always let your boss have the first say. Lesson 4: An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing?" The eagle answered: "Sure , why not." So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it. Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up. Lesson 5: A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy." "Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients." The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree. He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree. Moral of the story: BullShit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there. Lesson 6: A little bird was flying south for the Winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him. Morals of the story: (1) Not everyone who craps on you is your enemy. (2) Not everyone who gets you out of crap is your friend. (3) And when you're in deep crap, it's best to keep your mouth shut! ********************** THIS ENDS OUR 5-MINUTE MANAGEMENT COURSE They say I suffer from insanity.... But I actually enjoy it.

just talked to the local red cross info person, they are concentrating thier search west of clear lake by hidden springs and shoe lake (both of which I havent ever heard of), they have both a search and rescue plane and helecopter. got my fingers crossed; Roy They say I suffer from insanity....

just keep in mind the fun and freedom you have once you get out of the airplane, the door fear gremlins will soon subside. jumping from a still functional aircraft isnt the most sane thing you can do - your fighting your survival instincts, they dont realise you have parachutes

The fact that your posting this question tells me you already know what you should probably do, question is, will you... Why not make more jumps on the larger more forgiving canopy? believe it or not, you can gain one heck of a lot of valuable experience on the larger wing, and if or when you make the inevitable mistake, the margine for error will be bigger and more in your favor. A new Dz + unfamiliar faster new canopy at your experience level can be a really bad recipe. Roy They say I suffer from insanity.... But I actually enjoy it.

if no repack cycle, how often whould you I & R

only it were so...somewhere there was a thread going about the plausibility of making people infertile until they proved responsible enough for a child. I'm all for it...I think more people would be FOR that than many would guess Sorry about putting words in your mouth, I should have used dislike instead. HATE' will apply when one of my nieces gets mauled from the two uncut males fighting or one of the bitches that just had a litter...*** I would hate to have that happen to any child.... or for that matter any adult either. All I can base a personal opinion on is what I've seen -intollerable, meat-headed aggressive train wrecks waiting to happen. It would be great if they could 'fix' the 6 I've seen, but 5 are being used for breeding. They are perpetuating the bad press for you. ***unfortunately backyard breeders are not very rare I just get so tired of the breed bans, that punishes the good and the bad animals, and leaves me with a decision, get rid of the dog or to live in violation of the law... moving at this time is not an option unfortunately.. and getting rid of him will never be an option.
