I"ve been thinking that when Cypri start to get to the age where they aren't going to be used in rigs, that they might be set up to deploy emergency chutes on camera helmets. I lost my pro-tec with both a pro-track and a dytter at 14K about a year ago (both instruments impacted without damage) but the terminal speed of the helmet alone was only about 60mph. I think that's too slow to set off a cypres. I think that jumping camera means having a $2500 deductible on surviving a helmet entanglement.

People tend to forget that Jesus was a carpenter who could turn water into wine. I'm thinking if he was around he's laugh like hell at you blasting your jaw, drunk, with a nailgun. Then he'd miraculously heal you and sh*t, but he'd be laughing the whole time

Deploy the "Ninja Squads" and get ready for "Dark Orange"

Neither of those guys look like they'd be any fun to play softball with. They don't look like they really savor good bacon either. -
I gotta laugh at this one. I crashed into my shadow out in the student area on a night jump at Perris. The dirt there is really soft, really fine, and really, really deep When I dug myself out of my crater I looked like I had been rolled in brown sugar. Those washers get WORKED! They have Pyramid Hefewiezen on tap at the BombShelter, but they turn the taps off when BillVon shows up Somebody told me it's just 70 days away.... Haharhahahhrharharhha!

Yikes! I was there, twice! Lots and lots of folks there, so I'm sure the happy bag got passed around and everybody got some

Betsy, you rock so hard I can hear it with the volume turned completely off. Step up, folks this is gonna be epic. Epic, dammit.

I need a big, greasy, paper bag full of happy! No foolin.

It's already happened to us, but in the form of the minimum load. It's 11 in the KingAir now instead of 10.

Haven't heard from Franck in a bit. About three weeks. He had just gotten home, like lizzieb said, and was getting around in a brace. Carrol is in physical therapy rehab in Castro Valley. I didn't know he'd been released. I haven't had the chance to see him since he regained consciousness.

Meduus, I'm a chicken. I think you should get an Optik with a flat side so you can mount that puppy up without exposing yourself to any additional risk. My boss on the DZ uses a bracket somewhat like the one you've designed, it's just not for me. Optik, Hawkeye LT, Bat-half-rack, whatever. Maybe somebody else with a custom solution should respond. I'm an off-the-shelf guy.

In the third JPEG it looks like theres a channel between your L bracket and the helmet mounts that looks especially snagadelic. Maybe consider mounting the bottom of the L bracket directly to your helmet with adjustments only at the top half? It just looks like that setup might snag lines as your risers and lines come up your back on opening. All this stuff makes our sport more dangerous, but that third picture there puts scary entanglements in my imagination. Yes, it's worth it to get it closer. JP

My Mom NEVER gave us a knife for that game! We had to use the biggest standard screwdriver we could find in the garage

Absolutely. My Mom keeps coming up with more recollections of Amazingly Stupid Boy tricks I did. I can just imagine what was going on in the minds of those kids as they hit that explosive nail. "OK, OK, I'll hit the explosive nail and it'll go off and go straight at that rock, between your legs. Then, when it hits and starts to ricochet back, you jump up and turn around and watch as I catch it in my teeth" Whack-BLAM!-MOM! MOM! MOM! MOM! WASN'T ME! WASN'T ME! IT WAS TIMMAE'S IDEA! MOM!

OK I'll claim the prize on that one: Dymo Labelwriter 330 Turbo. Once you get used to the slight turbo lag on it, you can print labels like nobodies business!

-Kensington is a very upscale suburb just north of Berkeley. Kensington Boy shot in chest with nail ... Kensington Boy shot in chest with nail cartridge Police say a 12-year-old boy went to the hospital Thursday following an accident with a metal pipe and a cartridge for a nail gun. The victim and a friend, both students at Golden Gate Apple School on Colusa Avenue, were behind the school about 12:20 p.m. Witnesses say the victim was banging on the cartridge with the pipe when a nail discharged and struck him in the chest. The boy went to Children's Hospital Oakland, where he was in stable condition Thursday afternoon, police Sgt. Stephen Bray said. The boy required surgery to remove the shrapnel. Police continue to investigate the incident.

No, my ballerina, he wouldn't. I have not shaken BillVon's hand, but he could not be a liar. Porno Pixie, yes, heavy set, no. Maybe in some wierd Billvon Dimension. Maybe. But not in the earthbound one.

Just keep on drinking your prod whiskey from distilleries owned by Frenchmen. Oh. The Catholic distilleries are owned by Frenchmen too. Shite.

Whoa! Mean Timmae! Had no idea! Come visit me in Martinez for lunch some time. I'll show you the Burnt Orange Underbelly of Government Employment. Afterwards, you will not envy the use of AccuWipes as Kleenex. I assure you. But you will benefit from the best Cajun Chicken sandwich in Martinez.
