  1. What's great about turtles is that they come with their own bowl. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  2. Yeah, except he didn't even smoke it down to even need it... I'm gonna arm-chair call him out on that one. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  3. Frenchy, if you're taking 3-4 hours to get to Cross Keys then you're drivin' Miss Daisy. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

    Shoe fetish...

    Billy actually, those are actaully $200/hr but come with a side of penecilin. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  5. My Lightning 160 is the biggest POS I fly but I still say that anyone who can't fly and land it correctly needs remedial training. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  6. I'm sure you could google calcs for figuring out tangential velocity but you'd have to make a lot of assumptions about the radius of the circle and angular velocity. No, it probably wouldn't be much and someone's body position would have a more immediate affect. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  7. I'll let Kallend set this right since he teaches this shit but your center of mass will continue in a straight line. You will continue to rotate because at the point you are released your feet are travelling faster than your head through the arc of your rotation in the original spin. Furthey Hypothesis: You'll probably spin into your reserve lines because of the mechanics of where the lines are attached. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  8. If you're going through VA Beach then go to my college roommate's restaurant, Senor Iguana's. Ask for Chris Wise and tell him you're a skydiver friend of mine. Ask him to sing "Jingle Bells" and to put a drink on my tab. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  9. The advice you're hearing here is not accurate. Talk with the contractor and manufacturer of the septic tank. They should be able to provide you with a system that can take ground up waste but it needs to be specified that way. Edit: I just talked with one of my office's Plumbing Engineers. The main restriction comes when there is a drain field connected to it. But still a disposal can be attached. Just let your contractor know what you want and he should be able to specify the correct system. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  10. They're missing something in the explaination. It's not as if he got to the dead seal by pushing on the rope but I'm not surprised he didn't have a paddle for what he was doing. It's just more weight he has to haul and he could probably use something else. Having kayaked through packed ice last night I can tell you that a pole with a hook is much better for propelling yourself through ice than a paddle. Such a device is standard equipment for Inuit hunters looking for seals. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  11. Before I load I have decided that I want to land in the landing area at a location that wind conditions and canopy traffic allows. I'm pretty sure that the only accuracy shots I have documented are for swoop-n-chugs. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  12. Don't ratings renewals also require a signature for your proficiency? And you can fax or scan/email it from my experience. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  13. Would any of you be willing to have your skin sewn into a dress or suit? Please PM me and we'll arrange. For now just use plenty of moisturizer. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  14. I don't because it does not offer any improvement over MY ability to turn my head and look over my shoulder. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

    Need a PDF of the IRM

    Yeah, no kidding there's no such language as "can't make it a PDF." I would be fired if I ever said that. Anyway, I'm picking one up tomorrow afternoon, I have a scanner 20 ft away from me. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

    Need a PDF of the IRM

    USPA isn't open today and I need to read some course material. Does anyone have the IRM in PDF format? Oh, and if you can email it to dlocke(AT)ktagroup(dot)com by midnight tonight then I'll buy you a jump at your own DZ (Continental US only). "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  17. Have you seen the video it refers to? http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3934651591022114445 "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  18. No way, never, there are clouds down there and jumping through clouds is against the BSRs! "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  19. That's hilarious. But it's sad that money has so much to do with someone's happiness. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  20. Yeah, but what would you say if you got a bunch of Lean Cuisine and Weight Watchers. You gotta understand that we buy women that shit for the triple whammy. First so we know that chocoalate is the fastest way to a woman's vagina. Second, saying something flattering ike, "Oh geez, you could eat as much as you wanted" will keep us there. Third, we get to eat a bunch of chocolate. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

    Been to Iceland?

    Yeah, I'm starting to think that I'll just stay for the Bachelor Party events but the tall blondes have perked my interest. I assume they like nothing better than getting hit on by American tourists. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  22. What's gross to think is that if she'd actually advertised them as unwashed there would be some sickos buying them up like hotcakes. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

    Been to Iceland?

    I'll be there in late May, besides, snow and cold weather isn't a hindrance to me. I'm actually doing a lot of camping in the current East Coast snowy weather. I was thinking along the lines of some coastal areas or nifty geological features. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

    Been to Iceland?

    I'm heading there in May for a Bachelor party and plan on tackin on two days to the front so I can go hiking/camping. Does anyone have a recommendation as to where to go or not go? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
  25. Oh, and by the way, I thought you were a student, not someone who's been jumping 8 years. But you obviously figured out the context of my question. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
