  1. Classic dz.com. Speaking an opinion without education on the matter.
  2. You could always have them light up like they will be on the ground at night - test shots do wonders for figuring out some settings.
  3. It's the accent. When he stops talking you still have to look at him though.
  4. I'm assuming most of ours are arrayed in space over and around the US. And the ones that are not, are top secret spy satellites we don't want others to know about. "Oh hey guys, here is detailed 0.1m resolution maps of Southern China and the oceans around it..."
  5. I've been competing in MX pants for 4 years.
  6. Good for you. You pay your money, you take your chances. Really glad you are ok Andrea.
  7. The excess loop can wrap around all kinds of shit back there (dive loops, camera mounts, etc) Never a good day when that happens.
  8. http://shine.yahoo.com/parenting/nj-teen-sues-parents-for-cash-and-college-tuition-201404488.html So.....yeah. Anyone know anything more about this case? A legal adult, now suing her parents for continued support. Part of me wants to say that this friend's lawyer father is pushing for a payday /personal vendetta we don't know about. However, given the entitlement syndromes sweeping our youth, I can't say I am surprised.
  9. Limiting the hop and pops at 50 seems silly. I mean my last 800 jumps are basically hop and pops.
  10. That's a pretty fucking stupid statement. I don't get the enjoyment of people sitting around and playing Bridge at night. But plenty of people seem to love it. Am I dead inside too? To the OP: WE. LOVE. jumping out of planes. Feel free to give a few more jumps a shot. If it isn't blowing your skirt up, go find something that does. Life's too short to do something that you aren't having fun with.
  11. Do they drink good beer or cheap shit?
  12. Let's change the title. Fuck I'm Hungover. But 4-wheeling in snow is a blast!
  13. There's 13" of snow on the ground. It's gonna be snowing another 12 hours. I have drank an entire bottle of Viking's Blod mead, plus various other offerings. And I have to drive the other half and her co-worker to work in it in 6 hours. I should probably go to bed.
  14. I have found that the openings are much better in terms of on heading performance, very little of the hunting that the VE is famous for. More brisk but not hard. A fair bit of increased snatch and sit up force, but nothing worrisome. -- More of that may come from the fact that I have a 30" ZP PC and a 10' bridle since I have a subterminal setup. I don't have video, and this only comes from a few jumps taking longer (7-10) sec delays on hop and pops. Then again, I use a VC for what it was intended - RDS and 300 vectran lines. That setup isn't ideal for terminal openings, and not repeated ones at that. From what I have heard from other comp jumpers, some have jumped the VC at terminal, with 300 lines and a full setup. Brisk - and one even reported to get 200 jumps out of the 300 lines. Not exactly an answer to your question, but I worry that you are not going to find a large sample size of people jumping a VC on 500 and a stock slider.
  15. Look at you. All grown up and stuff.
  16. WOW. That's a month of 40 hour work weeks on the same person. WOW. Was this the Master Dissector guy from the web page? Master Dissector just cracks me up. That's a lotta talent, I presume!! That's just to cut em up Juuuuuuuust right. Now spend every other waking hour for the next 2 months living in the lab, smelling like formaldehyde, learning where everything is.
  17. Missed 6 months at jump 190 for a R patellar tendon reconstruction and shave down. Missed 10 months from May 12-Mar 13 for a R rotator cuff tear and debridement. It sucks. Come back when you are healthy or you will regret it.
  18. www.asoankle.com if you are going to do it anyways. You don't need anything fancy. The intro brace with the high ankle wrap, lace up and figure 8 straps is excellent. I still use it for Zone Acc from spraining my L ankle 4 years ago. /no financial interests, just a damn good brace. It appears they just have the one brace now, or my computer isn't loading the full website. Either way, it's $39.99 or something like that.
  19. So dressing for success is stupid? Interesting.
  20. He got it wet and fed it after midnight. Don't do that.
  21. I have had a pregnant patient swear to me she was a virgin. We talked about different definitions of intercourse, all of which she denied up to the point I simply told her that she needs to find a priest and not a doctor if she wasn't lying to me. Given that we haven't had a "second coming" yet I still figure I was right in that conversation. /it was the first coming that got her in trouble...
  22. I think I can come up with 100 numbers
  23. A tide fan upset about another team's fans crowing? pot/kettle *drops mic*
