  1. Walt, I understand your art. Very Inspirational. I believe in supporting all the Arts.
  2. Neither of them are running for an elected position. The political tactic for the republican congress is to break rank with the administration in an appeal to the voters. If they are re-elected, I suspect that the republicans who apply this tactic will quickly return to the administrations talking points. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  3. It also begs the question; Why would the Republicans pressure the administration to distribute nuclear information on their website that was already publicly available? Often the "nuclear secrets" game is played with dis-information. The trick is to get your opponent to believe they have been "leaked" accurate "classified" information.

  4. Just got the phone call about this. I am still in shock. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  5. hmm..... Danger is my middle name. I'm kidding. Actually, it is Jacob Jingle. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  6. I call that "golden handcuffs." I have those on too. Fortunately, I love my job.
  7. That is very misleading. 45 degrees is only true assuming, Zero winds aloft, 120kt speed and roughly 2 miles (10K) of freefall. The other aircraft will be at 45 degrees only at the moment of exit. Once you consider the approach vector and winds aloft, the aircraft you are looking to avoid is actually more than 2 miles away (more than 45 degrees).
  8. nein nein nein, es ist 'Butt Nekkid.' Ehrlich du dumme Amerikaner… "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  9. Getting 'rear ended' can do a lot of 'hidden' damage to the frame of your car. make sure you bill that Saab driving kid about $8k for damages.... Post some pictures of the damage. I'm certain DZ.com can provide accurate estimates... "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  10. huh? I'm wearing my NASA hat. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken

    WALT!!!

    It's halloween. The little guy probably wants a Snickers and a Milky Way.
  13. A Turkish Prison. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  14. I think you did the best you could. It sounds like the other C182 may have been blocked by the strut over on the left side. Spotting other aircraft is tough. Even when ATC has told us where the traffic is at; it still takes me 20+ seconds (on occasion) to pick it out. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  15. My favorite Happy Bunny slogan is, "Hate is a special kind of Love for people who suck." What breed of doggie is that? Corgie? Schipperke? "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  16. Bobbi's avatar may not necessarily be a joke. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  17. Three thousand years of beautiful tradition, from Moses to Sandy Koufax...
  18. What direction was the C182 coming from? Was it flying across jump run, or parallel to jump run? How strong were the uppers? How many groups left the plane? what separation? How much time did the first group spend spotting? Once you start taking those factors into account, the C182 was more than 2 miles away and may have been more than 5 miles away when the first group left. If you can practice spotting a dime that is 30' to 50' away from you in less than 5 seconds you may be able to avoid this situation in the future. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken

  23. That's a pretty neat App, Dave. I need suggestions for a better caption on this one. see Rigging forum for original Photos. "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
  24. In the case against the chubby one in the oval office, you are just plain wrong. Please provide the name of the Federal detention facility President Clinton reported to for his sentence. President Clinton was acquitted. What prison sentence did he fail to report for? "Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken
