Yeah! What strategery do you use when you have a malfunction!

I think that word was CREATED by drunken skydivers. Being drunk and trying to compliment the other members of a great 4 way for "consistently verifying our fallrate was consistent, ensuring that we remained at the same relative level" Comes out "Brrrrnnnn.. Levelidity....goood". REally

That's workin' it. Is the attendance roster in the pub up-to-date?

I'm wondering if we're in agreement here. Those Al Quaide knuckleheads needed killing and the US killed them. I suspect that we use proxy groups, like the Al Quaida when they were fighting with the Soviets, because it's easier than fighting the battles directly. Don't fund the Kurds, have US forces go in and kill Saddam themselves. If we as a nation want people killed and stuff broken, we should stand up and do it in daylight. Don't fund other groups/governments to do it for us or on our behalf. US military Blood for oil? Survey says? Other people's blood for oil? Survey says?

Sit on my knee young Sebazz. When I was a child, you had to get off the couch every time you changed the channel. It really wasn't that bad, cause we only got 5 VHF channels and maybe 5 UHF channels when the doohickey that turned the antenna on the roof was working. Jim would get out of the helicopter and wrestle alligators while Marlon described what you were watching. "Jim is restraining the alligator so we can place a tracking tag in its hide" Jim tagged everything. Hyenas, wombats, lions, gerbils, whatever. Marlon watched. Kinda like a sadistic tandem master moving back and forth while a camera monkey tries to get the sun just right Jim rocked.

Note to self.... When in Eloy hold Sebazz so Mouth can smack him.

Whooo-hooo! Nah, you don't have camera! Kodak moment! First expression hanging under airplane means BEER!

I did two jumps with Jams this past Saturday! He is the margarita king! I have to post the pictures of my first freefall kiss. My Mrs. went tandem with my hero skydiver Connie, and Vic shot the video and stills. Serous monkey flying! Vic survived AFF school with the Sebazz, that's how tough he is! Anybody remember Jim, from Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom? Seb is like Marlon Perkins to my Jim. "I'm safely tethered to the back of a sick tandem student. JP my video monkey is nicely established on the camera step of the aircraft. My student begins heaving so I carefully turn his head to the left, evenly coating the vidiot with vomit. With the students gullet emptied, I departed the aircraft. JP cleaned the lens quickly as we left the aircraft, the flight was uneventful"

Yeah! That was huge fun! We'll roll out of the Van or the Casa or whatever tailgate they've go in AZ (if they allow it)! If you fall off, I'll just go with you. Hanging there looking back in is a blast! It's kinda like hanging from the bumper of a pickup that's driving real slow. Not so much like hanging from a chin-up bar. Another one that's fun is to hang from the ceiling bar and drop from that out the back! Swoosh-aahhhh! I GOTTA GET A MONKEY NUMBER! ELOY!

Too close for missiles. Going for guns. I just love it when other people choose what action I take justifies my existence as a man. My wife usually take the garbage out while I cook. She takes it out like a Whoooo-man! Get in there and cook me dinner like a man!
-
Standby one..... Lens replacement, dang Seb, don't look at the camera like that! This could get expensive. "So, who'se idea was this? Is this a special occasion? First rule of skydiving?: Look Good On Video

Lisa, was it the Perris Labor Day video? We'll beat the pants off of that one in Eloy. Many vidiots, many cameras

Mornings when I'm going skydiving are great! Not to be morbid, but I think she's thinking it may be the last time she sees me! Arch! Reach! PUSH!

It ends when she tells me.

Nice. I'd like to see more of that.

They're all pretty bad. Who gets the most tasteful award?

Well if you lived in my County, then yesterday you had me verify the signature on your absentee ballot and prepare it for counting tomorrow. That's right, me and some of my staff were here on Sunday, managers, no overtime. The votes count. Whether or not you bother is up to you. If you don't care about Federal Govt, or even State govt, vote for those city councilmembers, DA's and Sheriffs. They are tomorrow's candidates for higher office. Or not. It's a free country.

What you said. That shutter release is a non-starter. The D60 release makes sense, and Quade has one.
-
congratulations! That A is no small accomplishment. Cheers!

AggieDave beat me to it. Walk around naked a lot. Uh, in your house, that is. I'm thinking a nice 5th wheel on the DZ would be pretty cool. Gather up the little sheep collection, buy a barely used big 5th wheel trailer from the estate of a recently deceased retired guy, vive la vida loca! I've never lived alone. If I were you, I'd enjoy trying that for a while

Bachelorette number one!

Thanks. Oh, it's $20 more for the DVD, and it includes the VHS tape.

Q, we do most of the tape editing in-camera. I don't know anything about editing, but we have a pretty good editing board. The woman who does the editing goes through the helmet tape once, selects the best shots from the tandem ride, a close up face shot and a few other exciting stills. She then goes back and plays the helmet tape through and overlays the good stills over the slower spots of the helmet footage. The exit is in slo-mo. Two tracks of music, one for up and one for down. She burns them in the same amount of time it would take to do a VHS. We sell DVD about half the time, maybe a little less. It's like $5 more.
