Sure, and it's perfectly understandable, but it's the worst kind of political pefidy to exploit the grief of others for one's own political gain. ----------------------------------------------------------------- You had to go and say that, what do you call it when Bush runs footage of 9/11 in his political adds? I don't have a problem with your second paragraph. I hope Kerry wins too, but for different reasons. LOL news flash its the Iraqi who will throw our ass out of Iraq. blues jerry

The story is running in the media - it didn't originate with me. The libs are acting just like the ambulance-chasers who use the families of skydiving-mishap victims as their puppets. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Yea well just wait a few days and the republicans are sure to get in on the act with their own spin. OTOH you can expect some families to be bitter its human nature after all, not everyone can suck it up when Johnnie dies. blues jerry

What you mean Bush didn't lie or manipulate intelligence to go into Iraq? Or are you pissed because some military families don't buy into the lie? Your story is suspect in my book, and I suppose your motives are pure. blues jerry Fire the Lying bastard.

1234 what are we fighting for? don't ask me I don't givr a damm, next stops Iraqi land. Tell me it isn't true, were you all by yourself? and its 567 open up those pearly gates, well there ain't no time to wonder why, woopie were all going to die! BTW those hippys be closer to 60 than 50.

I voted no because I'm not a rigger. I just wanted to chime in before......... blues jerry

I wonder how many people know that meat is not a bright red color like you see in the store? blues jerry

My take on a pc in tow,when I had mine on jump 13 due to a misrouted bridal, I tried looking over my shoulder and didn't see it. All I knew was I was screaming thru 3 grand with nothing out, pull silver, saddle out at 2000. Now days I think I'm aware enough I might grab the bridal and try once to clear it. Otherwise I'm going to go for silver with nothing out. AFIK this is the only mal that does not require a cutaway. And its always argued both ways depending on who you talk to. blue skies jerry

They call it the cheese buger bill, looks like mickey D has more stroke than the NRA. blues jerry

I know this thread started out about protection for gun manufactures from lawsuits. The funniest thing I've heard all week is that a bill just passed the house to protect fast food business from being sued for causing obeseity. Looks like guns just aren't dangerous enough to warrant protecting the manufacture. blues jerry

From the student side, first hop from 5500 lack of altitude, coach stays in plane with me. Low clear and pull from 3500 only get 3000, new coach, he jumps I ride the plane down. He gets his ass chewed. The way I look at it is I'm paying for a coached jump, if I can't go its no joy all the way around. blues jerry

I like to pitch a tad above 3000 and that usually saddles me out at 2500. I have a b lic and have never sucked it lower than 2500 on a main. blues jerry

Posting I'm an arrogant asshole is just stupid, and a waste of bandwidth. LOL Hey Ron it was your bandwidth you wasted to begin with. blues jerry edit for spelling

wow blues jerry

You could say that , but with better photography. blues jerry

nevermind

Nice list, just for the sake of argument I wonder what is the most important thing on that list? blues jerry

I guess I'll chime in with a score of 35 which is fair for me with only 193 jumps. I took a beating on wing loading, but I've had lot of good coaching at my DZ. I first bought my canopy I wondered how long I'd have to fly the sky barge before I could down size. Now after 150 jumps I wonder how long it will take me to get to its full potenial. I had jumped at 5 different DZs by the time I got my A at 50 jumps. To those of you that think this this survey is bogus that is your right. To me it represents that good portion of my early jumps were in the high risk/scary category and I didn't even know it. I like the idea of risk assessment, why not place as much emphasis on canopy skills as free fall skills. I think everyone would agree that dare devils with out solid canopy skills are more likely to pound in before someone thats paid their canopy skill dues. blue skies jerry

Just saw it tonight and what a cool movie. Two thumbs up. blue skies jerry

Ha Ha the eighty junk bond scams, can anyone say Jeb Bush. blues jerry

I would agree with you Vectorboy and thats what troubles me the most in this aspect with regards to other areas of our society. There just doesn't seem to be any common sense anymore. I wish I had a solution, but until you get equal time in the schools that other hot button topics (Gays , Race, Diversity) get I don't see anything changing. blues jerry

I'm taking a hard look at the Fuji Finepix also. I like the idea of getting video at the 680 420 res. Does the cannon reb do the video thing? I know the price is right at 414 cheapest I've seen it. blues jerry
