  1. Bit of a difference when it is a friend of 5 years and someone like you who has pre meditated intentions to rip us off. Cheers for letting us know you are a thief with bad intentions. Even to say that is the way you think and that you would be willing to take advantage of anyone you can says alot about you. Great character you have .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  2. You see, these were the sort of suggestions i was looking for. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  3. Thank fuck i aint in NZ. By 'Partner' I mean defacto/girlfriend Anyway, it is done. She came downstairs just after i replied to a few posts and said to me.... "Do you think when i am still asleep, that you might be able to make sure you lift your feet when you walk past my bedroom door"..... Holy fuck did shit hit the fan. It was like an explosion. The girl is packing now. ( She got out of bed at 1:30pm) .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  4. I agree with what everyone is saying. That is my problem, I feel the same way you guys suggest i should. I just dont know how to do that to my partners friend without feeling like shit about it. I dont know anyone who would put me in such a position so dont know how i would expect my partner to react to this. My partner has said i can kick her out and she is obviously upset by it but i will feel terrible for doing that to their friendship. I wish she would just fuck off on her own accord. Anyway, today is not the day to do it as today I am trying to find a way of avoiding her because i dont want to be arrested. Sometimes you have bad days when you should not deal with problems and leave them for a better day. today is that day. She has fucked me off so badly that if i see her today all my feelings will be brushed aside and she will be out the door with her bags being thrown at her. Trust me, I am not chicken shit about kicking her out, I would get alot of pleasure doing it and it would be exactly what she deserves. I am chicken shit of hurting my partner though .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  5. Not up to me though is it to decide what her friendship is worth to my partner. She did have the money, she was staying in asia for a month, though she ended up staying for three and a half months or something. I would say to any of my friends or family to stay as long as they need to but at the age of 30 i have always though people know that when someone says that to you that it means they are there for you, i would not have thought she would take that as meaning we will help and provide for you while you watch reruns on tv all day. Today I have turned the wireless off from the modem, I am dissconecting the cable tv so she only has three channels of informercials and I am letting her know that the inssurance company has said hse needs to sit the OZ drivers license test or she can not drive my car now it has been three months. (law). I am meeting my landlord this week and will ask him as he is a mate to write me a letter saying that if we have guests living in our house for longer than three months then the rent will go up from $700 a week to $900. Making it cheaper for her to stay in a backpackers. or I am going to cancel her return ticket from melbourne so she has to find a job to be able to get back to sydney. Maybe i am gutless, I just dont like being nasty to people even more do not want to ruin her friendship with my partner. Three months ago, I was finally in a place that I called home after being traveling for 10 years around the globe, today I feel like my home has been raped and pillaged. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  6. Would anyone like to offer her work on the other side of the country? I dont give a fuck if there is a job there or not. I have already purchased her a ticket to melbourne return flight in two weeks. It was a xmas gift. I hope she decided to stay on her friends couch for life rather than come back.... or maybe i can cancel the return ticket when she gets there? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  7. The thing is, I am not letting her walk all over me, I am letting her feel secure in a foreign country where she knows nobody. Anyone comes to stay with us and ends up not being able to afford anything, well i am the sort of person who if i have something then my friends are welcome to it. She may not be my friend but she is my partners friend, and I feel like it would hurt their friendship. Also, we told her she can come and stay during her 1 year work visa in Australia, she toild us she would be traveling alot and staying in three month blocks or something, of course being polite we say, sure, stay as long as you need to. The thing is, I dont think she can understand the difference between being polite and taking advantage. Surely now i dont say a word to her except for get the soda can off my couches, surely she should know she has overstayed her welcome. I mean, who the fuck travels to australia and sits on a couch and watches reruns EVERY SINGLE DAY?? Does sh not find it bizzaree that I do not sit in the room that houses my home entertainment centre? I just dont have the balls to put her out on her ass. She would be fucked if i did so and what sort of friend would my partner be to her if she stood by and let me do that to her friend? I dont think it is fair on my partner .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  8. My partners mate from the UK has come to stay with us. The idea was she was coming over to Australia with $10,000 and was going to travel around OZ and use our house as a base. So she tells us she will go to asia for a month on the way, she ends up staying in asia for three months. The day before she arrives here she phones ME up and asks me if she can borrow $500 so she can pay the departure tax etc in thailand. In other words she arrives here without a cent to her name. So she comes over and now needs to look for a job. There is only a couple of jobs available on internet each week at the moment and she does not think she needs to go out and look for work as she will find something on the internet. So for the past THREE months she has been sitting in my living room watching my big screen from when she gets out of bed at 1 pm till when she goes to bed at 4 am. for three fucking months. When she wants to use the car, she comes up to me and says "where are the keys". She does not ask to use the car, just asks where the keys are. She is a bar manager back home and over here you need to do a course for $70 to be allowed to serve any drinks at all. She has not even done this despite me giving her over $2000 in loans. Now my brother was in a terrible accident in the USA recently and spent time in hospital over there. He is coming home as his injuries are really casuing him problems and he is going to stay at my house. He now has to sleep in the garage in the cold of winter because she is a lazy fucking cow who is taking the piss. Now to top it off, MY partner and I have spent the last three years bulding our home up to be a nice comfortable home and when we have people around we invite them and make sure the house is in a nice state and we organize it properly..... Last night at 1 am i hear a voice, a males voice, a 24 year old lebanese gangsters male voice yelling and screaming and threatning someone down the phone and going on about lebanese values or some sort of shit. I am not racist but with all the lebanese gang killings in my cityu of recent i am not very comfortable. And i am extremly slutted off that she never even mentioned anything about having this stranger to me inside my house. If she wants to bring a friend over or a boyfriend over, fine, but she should be asking if that is ok first. She is a guest in my house, even though she now somehow gets to contribute to the rent, not a fair share but she does contribute. Even though she has made me sick to my stomach that I can not even leave my office downstairs to go upstairs,.... oh no shit, I sit down in my office all day and all night working and she cooks my fucking food and does not even offer me anything???!!! How the fuck do i get this leach out of my house. All i know is that if i say anything to her it is not going to be very nice, actually, if i say anything to her i know that i will end up kicking her out that very instant. I want to respect that she is my p[artners friend but everytime i walk into my house, there she is sitting on my couch with her soda cans sitting next to her on the suede couches, eating my food, watching my cable and using my wireless connection. It makes me sick in my stomach and makes me feel worse and worse as this anger is building up to the point where i want to leave my own home. To make all of this worse, my brother is coming to stay, my best mate of 18 years is coming to stay and another one of victorias friends is coming to stay and one of my skydiving buddies....all next month, and i know she will just keep sitting on that couch. Alot of people think this girl is very attractive, I admit she is or was but to me i feel physically ill and do not know how to deal with the anger i am feeling from this person taking the piss. I knwo that is i say antyhing to her that it will ruin my partners friendship with her cause i will NOT be able to control the disgust in my voice that i have towards her. Is there anyone in sydney who will take this tramp off my hands, is there anyone who can get her visa revoked and deport her? Help! .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

    First Rig

    I know that was addressed to a different poster ^ But I also bought a brand new canopy and I've packed it myself every single time and can usually pack just as fast as everyone else. It's just all about practice and finding a technique that really works. Damn straight. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

    First Rig

    Why would he need a packer? Surely he can do it himself? People always say this sort of thing when someone asks about buying new like it is a sure thing that only a paid packer can pack a new canopy. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

    Racer

    I bought it used ('05) and got a pretty good deal to where just having it for packing was worth the price. ---------------- HUH?? How do you figure that? how much per un-jumped pack job does that work out to be? .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  15. The girl who use to have a recording contract and made it through has just been kicked off the show and replaced. Her manager works for Idol .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  16. At least in my Square One shop, before I could rent a rig, I had to sign an agreement saying that I'd pay for anything that was lost, and also that I'd have to pay for a repack in case of a cut-away. Alright, well that makes alot of sense. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  17. Square 1-2-3's mark up on gear is next to nothing. I am suprised how they manage to have this demo proggramme and i think it is more about helping jumpers than them making money as it sure would take a chunk out of any profits. If i was you i would not look at it the way you are looking at it. They are the some of the cheapest gear stores on the planet and it would cost them ALOT of money to run the demo thing. Think about it, you losse a main canopy, and they loose a fortune. You drop your handles or loose the free bag, there is MOST of their profit from the fulll sale of a rig gone. Dealers, do not have a very high mark up. Though at the same time, dealers are alot cheaper than you would ever be able to buy direct from the manufacturer for as dealers sell below the manufacturers MSRP in most cases except for a coupld of brands. Sounds like a good idea for you to do this deal they have. I wish i could offer it to my customers .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  18. Very sad over here. 101 people already delivered to the morgue. So many more to go. Children, teens, parents, families, celebrities, bussinesman, community leaders. Very sad. They say Ash Wednesday was a BBQ, Black Saturday was a Fire. So sad. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  19. Thanks. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

  22. My first Icarus canopy was a Safire 129 from Spain custom made and I loved it. I then sold my kit and purchased the same canopy from NZAerosports, just different colours and it is exactly what I expected. To my understanding Icarus NZ had alot to do with the design of most of the icarus canopies and then they were made under license in Spain. NZAerosports is a small company that spends alot of their time testing canopy designs and perfecting them. They mainly deal direct with their customers and that is the way they seem to like it and it makes sure of a fast turn around. Personally, I would suggest you not hesitate to buy from either company, they both offer the same canopies.(except NZA does not make the Neos or the reserve) The main advantage i think you will find with NZA is that you will have your canopy in 3-6 weeks, the main disadvantage with them is that they might not have the special colour you want in stock as Icarus Spain would have. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  23. I love the Safire 2. Amazing canopy. You can load it rather lightly or you can load it up at a max of 1.6 and it really performs. It has a long opening but is not so much a snivel, i mean you can see it opening so very nicely. It was the first canopy that made me feel comfortable under a canopy. It gave me the feeling that it was an extension of my body and it is very light on the arms. It has light riser pressure. It will give you a long landing holding it at half brakes, one that you can lift your legs and fly along the ground until you put the full brakes on while at the same time having a very forgiving flare if you flare late and more or less go straight to full brakes it will pop you right up. Of course this is not what you want to rely on but it works when you need it to. As far as I am concerned, It is Safire 2 all the way when looking amongst that range of canopies. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
