    Unappreciated!

    Right on Gawain, I could'nt have put it better, You made sensible statements, backed by facts. The other posts are broad generalizations based on emotion despite fact! Most protesting nay-sayers enjoy their freedoms as they chant against America, go figure. As for crazythomas, go hit the bong again dude, and read a little history!

    Reserves

    1987 Laser 7 Reserve, I can't bitch, it saved me once. My rigger says it's in excellent shape and will last many more years. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

  7. How long will it take for some politically correct turd to get mad at this one!!!! Personally, I'm both shocked and disappointed, I felt this way after I LMAO. I hope those boys kick ass and fell good during the attempt!! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  8. I'm a "glass always half-full" type guy. I mean after eating my whole life at McDonald's I'm now one of the Chunkendale Male Exotic Dancers!! Any one wanna join me? "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  9. Are you using a 4 grommet D-bag? I blew up a canopy a couple of years ago. All indications were line dump/bag strip. I switched from a 2 to a 4 grommet bag and paid extra attention while packing. So far no more problems with hard openings. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  10. One word dude, RESERVES!!! It can suck but, your doing the same thing and you can go home Monday! With that said, you can be called up anytime. If you choose, you can do it full time until a good job comes around. Things are fat and you're needed. If you have any questions e-mail me. If your are a weapon troop...McEdEES..is hiring..........lol...........if not, dude give me a e-mail.......... "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  11. Speaking as a jumper who has 8 years in the sport with only 500 jumps. I'd have to say the jumper with more time has a small edge on somene with alot of jumps and little time in the sport. My reasoning is simple, those of us with more time have had a chance to see many people make mistakes and be able to learn from them. We are less likely to repeat those we have witnessed, or sometimes just heard about. With that said however, there is no substitute for staying current, and alot depends on the individual. I guess for me the bottom line is, I'd feel a little more comfortable with a more experienced jumper as opposed to a new guy who has a lot of jumps in a short time, but who can really burn points or swoop. That's my two cents worth. Blue Skies, J "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  12. I'd have to say try an unstable exit, just flail out the door, lay on your back and do the "dead bug" or something. After that arrrrrcccccchhhhh...........hard, get stable, and enjoy the ride!!! If you get stable quick, flail some more. It just helps you get more comfortable in freefall. But the bottom line is at this point in your jumping career, don't get too far out of your comfort zone yet. JUST MAKE SURE YA PULL AT THE END.......that's the most important part of the skydive!

  13. Yo dude, I'd go for the 1500 third setting, in my opinion that third sound should signal immediate action "oh shit, whip it out.........or bend over and start kissing!!" But then again opinions are like the thing I described kissin' if ya know what I mean! Blue Skies, J "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  14. I feel your pain! My wife hates skydiving but, as long as it doesn't rule my (our) life then she deals with it. It's all a matter of perspective. I have to find time to jump, raise kids, work, and play (at things we BOTH like to do). We had some trouble a few years back and the marriage counselor actually took MY side on skydiving! I could'nt believe it. I love jumping, but I guess I love my life outside more. Hope that helps Blue Skies J "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  15. Oops........forgot a couple, C-47 Westwind Beech 18 King Air .....I'm so cool..........not! Just jump anything! As long as it goes up safely!! I guess a bad marriage counts too!! I'm jumped out of it big time! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  16. C-180 C-182 C-172 C-206 UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter Stearman BiPlane Bell LongRanger TV News helicopter....on the news...way cool! Twin Beech CASA Otter Twin Bo.......watch out for the tail.... Diversity is a great thing when it comes to rides to altitude, experience as many as you can! Blue Skies J "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

  18. The old "my drivers license picture is really bad............let me see yours" is a great way to avoid the pokey. Take it from a professional...........young girls are bad for your health and freedom! Blue skies.............and legal age women! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
  19. Uhh.........could there be at least some partial nudity...................
