Engineer is walking down a road. He hears "Hey! You! Help!" He looks around, and he sees nothing but a big frog by a puddle. "Yeah, that's right, it's me, the frog! I'm actually a princess that's been cursed by a witch. You know that story, right? Well it really happened. Now I need someone to kiss me so I will turn back into a princess." The engineer is surprised, then thoughtful. He picks up the frog and puts it in his backpack. "Hey! Listen, you drive a hard bargain. But if you kiss me I'll give you a reward. I have some money." The engineer thinks about it then keeps walking. "OK OK. You do realize that I'm a beautiful princess, right? If you kiss me I'll stay with you and . . . uh . . . do anything you ask. Anything!" The engineer thinks about some more then keeps walking. "What do I have to do to get you to kiss me?" wails the frog. "Well, I wouldn't know what to do with a princess," says the engineer. "But a talking frog is pretty cool."

i’ve jumped for a year without the cage using only a bolt in the tripod mount hole to hold it to the flatlock. the flatlock does have a very thin layer of rubber on it which helps keeps things from twisting. just be very cautious when wearing for the first few times until you learn your new “height” and check the tightness before you get on the plane

Hi Keith, Back in the 70's, during the gasoline shortage, the feds said that the states had to lower the speed limit to 55 MPH on federal highways. Some states balked; Montana & Nevada primarily. So, the feds said we'll just keep your federal highway money. Montana lowered their speed limit at exactly midnight of the very last day. Funny how money talks, Jerry Baumchen

You guys are like watching someone eat soup with a fork. Try hard to understand that no laws about anything are ever written or implemented in a perfectly timely manner. Furthermore, because we are a representative democracy, the laws are often muddled and are never perfectly targeted. Pretty much, the best we can hope for is to careen from guardrail to guardrail until we arrive somewhere close to where we wanted to go. That's the ways the laws here work so, in the words of Richard Feynman, you don't like it then go somewhere else.

Especially among those with bone spurs.

When the question is 'America's greatest wound.' There is no doubt in my mind that Bush did far more damage to the world as a whole. I fully expect the repercussions from his crusade to be a dominant factor in the geopolitics of Iraq, Syria and the wider middle east for the rest of my life.

I think what he was uncomfortable with was taking your money before you have started jumping. It is a sign of integrity, not wanting to take advantage of you.
