WE KNOW! IT's from THAT day. EVERY time - THAT DAY. You keep posting the same hyperlink. For that day. This is exactly what pisses everyone off. You pick one data point out of trend and celebrate that data point like a five year-old that's discovered he can write his name in the snow while peeing.

How else would people know how patriotic driving in a constant left turn is?

Except that you’re paralyzed below the knees and jumping out of an airplane. That’s by definition badass. Wendy P.

This says it well: Why We Should Stop Having the National Anthem at Professional Sporting Events

IMO it depends on your preferred style of jumping. Headdown / CReW / Attitude other than belly, consider pull out since relative wind from multiple axes might cause a pullout to sneak out too early. And CReW don't need no stinking throwout. belly / wingsuit, consider throw out or rip cord. Yes, at least one person I know is a ripcord advocate for wingsuiting. very few people still use ripcord for anything other than reserve deployment, mainly because of packing challenges IMO. welcome back

Which is unconstitutional. (And you're wrong. The ad was requesting chaplains, the application form was demanding Christians) Yes, it's specifically unconstitutional. If you want to get sued. Guess what, they're being sued. You are living in a fantasy world. Not only would multiple Christians be suing, it would be the headline news story on Fox, OAN, Breitbart, NYP for months and they'd be billing it as the death America as we know it. And you would be in full agreement with them.

235 is quite a bit of weight; if you're tall also, then that's just life, but you know that. If you're having trouble reaching a BOC, I wouldn't suggest a pull-out either; it's pretty much the same place. That leaves ripcord, which is still available at least in the Racer -- a friend of mine still jumps a ripcord rig (or at least did the last time I jumped with him some 7-8 years ago). You can work on flexibility, but unless you're pretty easily finding it, it just seems like yet another risk. I'm sure there are custom options available, but a ripcord protects your pin, and doesn't have velcro holding bridle. I'm assuming someone will be packing for you, so make sure they're good with packing a rig with a spring-loaded pilot chute. I have no useful advice on anything else... Wendy P.

He's confusing the White House with the"Big House."

Simple solution: Stop cheapening the national anthem by dragging into sporting events which have nothing to do politics, or patriotism, or the nation.

Yeah they are.

It would be interesting to see if there's any overlap between those who think getting a shot is an infringement on their personal freedoms, and those who think all 18 year olds should be forced to do some kind of national service.

shredvideo.com AI based, automates the editing, processing is on the DZ's computer, provides a web page link for the customer to download pics & vids, integrates with Burble manifest software, etc. Haven't tried it myself but saw it at a DZ I've been to.

No, they would probably storm the Capitol.

Let's get this back on track - what does Biden think about the Oxford comma?

Wel, ya gotta remember that some people consider the 'freedom of religion' part of the 1st A to mean that they are free to shove their religion down everyone's throats, including ignoring and suppresing other religions. Many of those people also view 'freedom of speech' and 'freedom of assembly' the same way.

The US military disagrees with you. A Rabbi working in a prison is a chaplain. An Imam working in a prison is a chaplain. A Bhikkhu working in a prison is a chaplain. It's a valid lawsuit resulting from a clear violation of the constitution.

Yet it is mostly Republicans who do not want to take the vaccine. So we should be thankful that a Republican came up with the vaccine that Republicans don't want to take. You guys need to get your talking points in order. Should we be thankful for the vaccine, or is the vaccine a government ploy to track and control you?

You nailed it. "Masks", so outrageous. Especially as compared to the number of Americans killed by trump's failure to take covid seriously. "Masks" is the new "Benghazi" for the dysfunctional republican brain.

Well said. It explains a lot.

Hi John, And interestingly, for those who pay attention, how that has been so different since 20 Jan 2021. Jerry Baumchen

Several states, including NY, Maryland and Ohio, are giving lottery tickets as incentives to holdouts to get vaccinated. I'm all in favor of incentives that apply to all those who have been vaccinated, such as opening access to events and locations, but rewarding holdouts seems to me likely to encourage more holdouts looking for an even bigger handout.

Brilliant!

CDC announcement was pure politics. Who is going to stop every non-mask wearer to verify vaccination? Now every anti-vaxer has been given carte blanche to go around contracting/spreading and developing new variants. Just dumb!
