  1. Had a Triathlon 150 a while back. Put a few hundred jumps on it and loved it. I packed it to open crisply but can't remember it ever slamming me. After "retiring" it (because of a tree landing) I made it into a quilt, which is on my bed currently. Highly recommended!
  2. One of the best ever! poppa ooh mow mow...
  3. Used to make it a point to see B.B. every year in Central Park (NYC) when he did his annual show for the "Dr. Pepper" concerts.
  4. I put myself on that list a few weeks ago and although I still get calls from telemarketers now and then, the number has gone down drastically.
  5. I went to Dave DeWolf's in Elizabethtown, Pa. He usually gives a course every year around the beginning of the year. Learned a lot-in fact he taught me so much that I realized how much there is still to learn.

    2 way exits?

    Just be very careful when practicing swooping down to a formation. Large separations can lead to very high closing speeds. Be sure to give yourself enough room to slow down before docking.
  7. I agree wholeheartedly. I grew up on Budweiser. If I feel like splurging, I'll go for something else but normally that's what I reach for.

    The family's thinking may be that while the blood vessels in your brain were weak, they normally wouldn't have popped (stroke) but that the change in pressure encountered on the ride to altitude caused it.
  9. Why did the steering wheel have lipstick all over it when the blonde returned her boyfriend's car? She tried to blow the horn!
  10. Who makes it? edited to add: From Poynter's Parachute Manual-Laser 7: 227sq. ft. reserve ormain
  11. Watch out for the ticks out at Calverton (L.I.)

    favorite song

    Too many to single out one-one of my "earliest" favorite songs is "Born to be Wild" by Steppenwolf.
  13. Between 2 and 2.5, unless the spot's right over the pea's.
  14. I think it's important to be willing and able to get out of the plane when you unhook your seatbelt. Mine comes off at a grand.
  15. That sucks about your medical problems but listen to the doctor. A friend of mine once had his ear rupture while he was under canopy. He said it was the most intense pain he'd ever felt in his life!

    Favorite DZ?

    Would have to say The Ranch, but I think I also have some great memories from camping out at some Herd boogies!
