  1. #1: What's up at Aggieland that weekend? #2: If needed, I can pick up late arrivals and put ya up for the evening (lot's of sleeping room at the house) and then motor you out Friday morning. This is all contingent on the fact that I am still unemployed at that time. The way things are going, I will be. PM or email me. #3: Dave, be sure you have pieing materials ready.

  3. jump mode? economy mode? faulty workings when the batteries get low? manual zeroing? (as opposed to unmanual?). oh.. and how bout those itty-bitty springs you have to be sure not to lose when replacing the batteries. Man I love my Time-Out. 2 buttons (altitude up & down) and a low battery indicator tone.
  4. Claim it and rate it. Ya gotta claim it if it's yours. you get a 10 if the pilot leaves the plane. And what's this "women don't" stuff. I've known women, and been on teams with some, that put me to shame. BSBD Larry Member of 8way team "Stink Fist"

    I was in a business meeting last year with employees from the company buying us out. During the presentation the woman brought up some pics of herself in skydiving gear and began to go on about how she was a jumper, and how wonderful it was. And all her co-workers were saying how they couldn't believe she jumped and how nuts she was, etc.. etc... When I started asking questions and they learned I had 2000+ jumps, I learned that she had done ONE tandom at SDD, and the pics she had were in another person's gear. No telling why they do it. Oh well. must get back to the job search. BSBD 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock
  7. I recently received this as a header on a Dice.com job search email: ------- Bust Your Boss! Is your current or former employer using pirated software in their office? Hit’em where it really hurts – report their llegal software use today. Click here to learn more. ------- What a perfect place for an ad such as that.

  8. Welcome to the club. Although I didn't realize what a big club it was. I've lately been practicing "Paper or Plastic?". YIKES! May your luck be better than mine. (unless we're going for the same job. ) BSBD Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock
  9. Good one NacMac!!! 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock
  10. 3 reserve rides, 2400+ jumps. 1st ride was jump #1,246. "Those that have. Those that will". Practice your emergency procedures frequently! BSBD
  11. "Amber? Is that you Amber? You.. git.. your.. gear.. on." Ok, if anybody wants to age themselves.... What song did I just parody? and who sang it? 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

  16. Greetings, Congrats on finishing up AFF. WOOHOO. DZ.COM is a great place for picking up new ideas, but don't forget to keep asking questions of the experienced jumpers at your DZ. Have fun.

  18. Another example of what a kind and considerate person skymama is. Welcome & congrats on the jumps. Blue Skies/Black Death Larry "Mock not thine altitude, lest the ground come up and smite thee."
  19. It must be his video. Very rarely can anyone ON the DZ video his landing. Sorry Levin, I couldn't help myself. BSBD Larry 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

  21. Yunno, I've always wondered about that. I think a "State" record should be made up of people who reside in that state. my opinion. Edited to add: Nice pics Josh.
  22. UNBELIEVEABLE! I had never heard of this guy before his sitcom came on, and I took about 5 minutes for me to realize that everybody doesn't love raymond. Where's the humor?
  23. and every time I delete it I can hear it say in it's Arnold voice "I'll be back!" As far as friends/family and forwarded mail, I tell them that I'm allowed to delete any mail that's forwarded. If they want me to definitly read something it should be sent to me, not a group. EV1 has some great SPAM filters and not a whole lot gets through. Lately I've been reporting the ones that do.

    $35 per jump!?

    mmmmmmmph...... You'd figure that with all those people, shit would be plentiful and cheap.
