SkydiveMO 0 #1 December 13, 2005 I thought I’d do something a little different for my diamond wing and diamond freefall badge award presentation for the award section of Parachutist. Unfortunately USPA doesn’t have a sense of humor and will not accept doctored photos. Guess I’ll just share it with you all here instead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mysky 1 #3 December 14, 2005 That's to funny! I think the problem is all of the skydiving community knows about these scam artists but it's up to us to let the general public know about them as well. I am actually going to build a website regarding their corrupt activities. I know I can get at the top of the search engines better then they can so lets see what happens. Website will be done in a couple of weeks and if anyone has any "real" information or stories please send them to me as I want to put up actual facts because somehow they are brave enough to take people to court for things they are not justified in suing for and I want everything on this site to be factual. I will post another message once I'm done with the site. I'm thinking of a forum also for new people to be able to read about them and their practices so they don't make any mistakes that others have with purchasing from this company. There are 3 kinds of people in this world, those that know how to count, and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mysky 1 #4 December 14, 2005 That's one of the funniest things I've seen on any of the forums in a long time. Great job with the Photoshop. You have to love that software!

RevJim 0 #7 December 14, 2005 Before you get to slap happy with the website, why don't you ask our National Director Jan Meyer, posting here as "makeithappen" about the site she's been building about them for quite some time. It's loaded with the info already. Maybe between you and her you can get the site that's already done on top of their searches... Just a thought.It's your life, live it!

Seeing things like that I cant help but think how much fun is between me and an award like that. Well done.“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and their hopes and dreams. If I didn’t drink this beer, th Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
