    Time to go... Scars remind us that the past is real
  2. Found out some more info this weekend that should spice up the deal... Aviators is hosting Halloween Parties on Friday AND Saturday night. I also heard a rumor that saturday night will be costume night and there may be a cash prize for best costume. I'll verify and get back with that info. Scars remind us that the past is real
  3. Some more info for this: Pre-registration is required - PM me with an email address I can send the form to you (it is too big to send as a PM attachment or post attachment - sorry) Deadline for pre-reg is Oct 22nd so we have time to organize groups and start getting everything together. I already have quite a stack of forms so this is promising to be a fun weekend. Scars remind us that the past is real

  6. If you go to the BBC's website - they actually have a very good "Learn a Foreign Language" portion of the site. And it's FREE. Scars remind us that the past is real
  7. If the line could just begin outside my office in 10 minutes I would happy. We can start with faculty members first.... Scars remind us that the past is real

  11. Big for us anyway! Saturday 16-22 ways all day on the otter. Sunday 30+ way formation loads with the otter and pac. Organizers so far include Kirk Verner and Roy Harper - more to come! Costs are just your jump tickets and a registration fee of $15 that gets you a dvd of all the jumps and fed on saturday night. More info coming soon, but I wanted to put it out so people can start planning. Scars remind us that the past is real
  12. You mean like this? I spent a few days there last summer. One piece of advice: hiking on basalt in the grand canyon in the middle of the summer in flip flops is not really a good idea. ah arizona basalt....how I love thee... Scars remind us that the past is real
  13. Thanks for the clarification Terry. I appreciated the lesson.
  14. miles and miles and miles of open trail with no one else around
  15. The next raeford jump club will be held on Sept 29 NOT Oct 6th. This time around will be 4 way scrambles. Four rounds and all experience levels are welcome. Pre-register in the school or shoot me a pm or email and I will make sure to put your name on the list. Scars remind us that the past is real
  16. AND - check out para-gear. Need to know E-thread tensile strength? it's there. Type VII webbing specs? In Para-gear. Lots of good info in there for $3.00 Scars remind us that the past is real
  17. Fayetteville State played davidson today and got their ass beat..... behind the curve limey. Scars remind us that the past is real
  18. Agreed. I think this would also be a good cross post into the instructors forum. It serves as a reminder to NOT rely on your aad and to PULL the reserve handle. Follow the EPs. Scars remind us that the past is real
  19. Not sure about the crooked stitch, but still in reference to the fabric being hard to pull out - one other thing - make sure the mechanisms are clean and well oiled. Usually when someone asks me to look at a machine because it isn't sewing right, the first thing I do is put in a new needle, then clean the thing. You'd be surprised how many bits of thread, fabric, dirt, dust, etc drop down into the machine and they can cause the machine to mis-sew or malfunction altogether.

  20. >why are relationships so hard My own personal take - (not getting into the interpersonal/honesty stuff) - if something is easy to attain, do you really appreciate it? The things you have to work hardest for are the things that you cherish. I'm not saying that relationships should be difficult all the time but its getting through those difficult times that build the strong bonds and make you realize that it is something special - not just another chore like washing the dishes.

  22. you mean she started buying ones she has to color instead of just the picture books? I'm impressed! Before you know it, she'll be wearing big kid underwear. Scars remind us that the past is real
  23. A good test for bobbin tension that I learned from Weird wayne called the two hemostat test. If you clip one hemostat to the loose end of the thread, the bobbin shouldn't unwind. If you clip two hemostats to the loose end, it should unwind. This gives you the right amount of bottom tension - then adjust top tension accordingly. Scars remind us that the past is real
  24. I routinely did 96 hours for the last six months I was finishing my doctorate. Explains why I finished a year faster than anyone ever in that dept. I don't recommend it. Scars remind us that the past is real
