  1. Whereas I am sure that they are some good sites out there that offer varied methods of packing nothing meets hands on pack experience at the DZ. My suggestion would be to find a coach or someone packing endorsed and get them to show you and monitir you as you learn to pack.

  3. What is wrong with Pink!!!! Did I miss a memo?!!? Noone told me so I put pink on my gear on purpose!!! LOL Age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  4. Credit card companies are pretty good about this sort of thing. A few years back I found a 60US charge on my credit card that I knew wasn't mine! To a canadian that was a small fortune MasterCard took it off immediately pending investigation and they told me that if they determined that it wasn't me that charged it that they would eep it off. I guess they determined that it wasn't me cause I never heard from them again. But I do remember them making this really easy to do.

  8. Thanks to everyone who responded! I got rave compliments on my speech! I only actually wrote it the morning of the wedding after breakfast and before I had to get the boys to the church. Even then I didn't really write it just kinda fleshed it out. I had checked out the website links that Masher provided and they gave me confidence that I could do a good job. Went really well. Oh and the groom gave all of the groomsmen engraved katana swords! What a cool gift! The engraving was the japanese symbol for brother! What a guy!

  9. Well it was my birthday today (May 20) and as usual I wasn't up to much. I slept at the DZ last night cause they thought there might be some midweek jumping going on and since I am unemployed I didn't need to be back in the city for anything. My birthday isn't really a big deal anymore for anyone, my parents call but don't do anything, my friends are usually too poor and I just generally don't really let anyone know cause well I don't really know. In anycase my first birthday surprise came as the DZO's wife baked a cake and brought it to lunch at the restaurant we were eating at. She had been home all day with a 5 month old baby so I am sure that was no small feat. If you ever read this Thank you Andrea you are a skydiving chick that rocks! Then later in the day I do a jump where a do a tumbler of a downwind landing (semi-on purpose there will be more about it in another thread if youare interested or you can pm me). I got the voodoo dirty but it was bound to happen eventually. But my good friend Jay who caught the whole thing on video hands me a Jump ticket that reads "Happy Birthday Adrian (I have exclusive rights to your landing video). Couldn't jump more because of weather but my one jump was free. I finally decide to leave and when I get back to the city and check my messages I find that I have messages from my little sister, my brother, my aunt my ex in toronto calls me as does my good friend "fool"(dz handle) from Ontario. I call my friend Brian whom I was expecting to see at the dz today but didn't and he informs me that my most current ex (his daughter Jill) has gotten me something and that it is at his house and I should come and get it. Now I don't know if you all remember but we broke up because she was moving indefinitely to Taiwan to teach english but somehow she manages to wiggle and get me something for my b-day and what is it? A Dropzone.com T-Shirt I have wanted one forever but with the exchange and tax and shipping etc. I haven't done it. She is truly a Skydiving chick that ROCKS. Even from Taiwan she managed to make my day. I was telling someone about her the other day and when I described her as skydiving, riding motorcycles and not tripping out if I went to the strippers occasionally and wanted to hang out with my guy friends, the person I was talking to told me that she couldn't possibly exist. Then he amended that to say that if she did I should marry her. After getting my present and hon the way home I get a call from my friend Lisa for whom I was best man at her wedding this weekend saying to show up at their place cause the boys were taking me out for sushi! What a great Day! Age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.

  11. I am curious then are your Licenses (CoPs) not sanctioned by the FAI? I have never heard of an FAI sporting license as far as I knew my licenses allowed me to participate in world competitions. They all bear an FAI logo. I am not sure though as I have never competed internationally. AGe S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  12. I'll drink one to that!!!! Good luck! AGe S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  13. Not necessarily... I see your point and that is one possibility.. however consider this. In the first movie we see neo learn a whole wack of skills through the neural interface. He does this in the real world. That means that there can be a certain amount of "programming" of the human mind in this manner. Who is to say that this isn't what happened to "the survivor" You will note that in Zion he isn't acting like Smith but just a crazed person as if some screws are suddenly missing. If he was actually smith then why the need to pretend to be crazy. He would mask his insanity a lot better. As for Neo having Super powers. Well this is a mystery to me but suffice to say we have seen him do some pretty crazy things in the matrix, and he had never fallen into a coma before. Perhaps him being the one in the matrix is having an effect on him in the real world. More than likely though the Zion that they are attempting to save is a subprogram though. I just thought that I would throw the above out for discussion . Age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  14. Hey all of the movies are doing it nowadays... LOTR, Harry Potter,... at least they didn't pretend. They wrote it in big letters across the screen S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  15. yes if we are going to pick it apart then a spoiler thread is definitely in order. When I started this I was just hoping to get general responses but I am into getting deeper... age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  16. That is what drew me into these movies in the first place. The more you watched it and thought about what was there, the more you saw/learned. But at the same time if you just wanted to do the standard and just watch the moving pictures on the screen, it was a movie for you too..

  17. I bet you are right.... boy was he just tearing it up in that sequence! Age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.

    Is it that obvious? Thank god for that!!! S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  19. Why would you want such a video? S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  20. Yep it is up... I refrained from dowloading this one. I figured this needed to be a theatre experience. Age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
  21. Wow.. a place that means business! Well so long as they've warned the people Age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.

    I am still not convinced that she can be a credible terminator yet. I will have to see the movie to be sure. Not to start anything but it is far easirt to accept a emotionless, remorseless male killing machine than his female counterpart. The actor that plays her has a tough job.

  25. Thanks Masher... you know I had thought of doing a google search but hadn't gotten around to it yet. Plus posting here gives me the chance to hear your minds and meet a few more of you. I will definitely check those out tomorrow. Age S.E.X. party #2 ..It is far worse to live with fear, than to die confronting it.
