    Hey everyone, My buddy recorded a new song and I threw this video together. I had to use some standard def footage because, well, its mostly all I have. (I dont have the last three years imported yet...) I know the lyrics dont go well with the song but it's a driving beat and I dig it. What say you? My photos My Videos

  4. Is that because you'll be staring at his dick? My photos My Videos
  5. +1 now, read your post is if I asked you. win any games of pool,lately? My photos My Videos
  6. Here's an easy way to tell the difference. If a gopher go into the hole and you scream...its NOT a gopher hole. but, Yes, it is a good package. My photos My Videos
  7. Ask your instructors about sensory overload. If it has been a while and this was only your 3rd jump, it is not impossible to blank out. This was also your first release dive. lots of stress and anxiety. Did you remember ANYTHING on debrief? The fact that you reacted when you were reminded shows the instructors that you were still "there." As I understand it, you are not going to do C2 dive? If you look at page 47 of the Skydiver's information manual, You'll see that Category C is a two jump progression. C2 basically the same jump but with one instructor. If they felt you were good enough to progress to Category D. I wouldn't go too crazy about it. Next time, focus on being in the moment. Sensory overload can act as a mind eraser. Disclaimer: I am not inferring that my advice is the correct advice. I am just reading what you posted on the internet and making ASSUMPTIONS about what happened. Talk to your instructors and voice your concerns with them before you make you next jump. My photos My Videos
  8. That's Brandy. The photo was taken years before it was on the card. She was surprised because no one asked her if they could use her likeness for the advertisement ETA proper pronoun. My photos My Videos
  9. 3 donations brought me to 32%. Thanks for those who donated so far. and a 4th who sent a check. Still got 2 weeks. If you have the heart to donate $10 to the boobies, it could go a long way. Ten dollars is: -less than 1/2 jump ticket. -approx 2.25 gallons of gas -in some states its only 1 pack of cigarrettes -2 beers at the bar. the boobies you save may be the ones that gain you extra altitude.

  10. Yea. Done that. Someone asked me my age and I had to stop and think. I don't go out of my way to celebrate my birthday. Not because I'm afraid to get old but because I do remember that I am not 12 years old. Each day is pretty much awesome. to wait for my bday to do something special would be a waste of time and life. So, Even as I typed this I had to rethink my age. 38. I feel like I'm 26. I act like I'm 15 and I'm hung like a 7 year old. I just forget which one people are asking about. My photos My Videos
  11. Before you start popping pills, let's ask how old you are? What shape are you in? if youre young and in good shape you'll do fine. Yes, you will have some sore muscles but nothing more than a good workout. If you book your time wisely, you will have breaks in between your sessions. In other words, you shouldn't be in the wind for 30 minutes at one time. Your coach can help you with that. As suggested call the tunnel and speak to a coach. Joe Winters was suggested. But if he isn't available don't be afraid to work with someone else. Even a newer tunnel coach should be able to help you at your level. My photos My Videos
  12. I haven't gone away, yet. I'm 32% of my goal. Please consider donating. It's for a good cause. My photos My Videos
  13. THANK YOU! Very much appreciated. My photos My Videos
  14. +1 It is like getting a phone call indicating you just won a free vacation to the bahamas. Just say two words: "Not interested" and hang up. She tried that. the person called her with a new number. How creepy.... My photos My Videos
  15. Doesn't any one want to help save the boobies? Its a quick process. Don't be discouraged, you can enter you own amount in. $0.25, $1. anything is good for the cause. My photos My Videos
  16. I played a variation of it. I handed out a card with three phrases each. 3 of us played. We could talk freely with each other but could only use the phrases on the card to speak to anyone else. It was hilarious. none of the phrases were office speak. the ones I remember were. "Didn't you say(do) that yesterday?" "Should we let Jeff in on our little secret? "...or we could just make babies." "Is that why it turned blue?" We kept the game up for 6 hrs before we broke down and "let jeff in on our little secret." Well, Jeff and the other 4 ppl we worked with. My photos My Videos
  17. During interviews I actually asked one of the applicants that question I posed. "Since, you're just making up numbers why aren't you willing to give my 1000%? The last four candidates were willing to give me 110% and I can't remember THEIR names. Why should I remember yours?" He was stumped...But I was so bored with hearing the same programmed answer that they thought I wanted to hear. My photos My Videos

  19. Ok REAL ANSWER? restraining order. Tell them "look, I tried to be honest with you. I told you we are not compatible. I told you I am not interested in being friends. You've disregarded this and now, you're starting to scare me. If you contact me again I will file a harassment charge and issue a restraining order."

  20. I don't understand this thread. Now, go back and read it with sarcasm. I think you'll understand it. My photos My Videos
  21. Hey lets get it straight. Rape is no longer the acceptable term. Surprise Sex is the new LEGITIMATE term for rape. My photos My Videos

  23. REALLY? NO ONE has chimed in with "more with less." I figured in these "hard economic times" (or if you prefer, this "economic downturn,") We'd have more people that have to do "more with less" because it's "simply the nature of it." Why do WE have to do MORE with LESS when I have been doing it ALL for the last XXX(add your time), anyway? How about I maintain my standards of excellence and you threaten to cut my budget, anyway? Since, I already believe I am your "top-notch" "go-to-guy" I couldn't "squeeze blood from a stone' anymore than I could "give you 110%." I REALLY hate those "110%-ers." If you're going make up a number, why not give me 1000%? 110% sounds like a lazy person heard someone else use the term and was too stupid to "think outside the box" to come up with his own number.

  24. Longmont/Mile Hi. There's another smaller dz in fort collins. I think there's a 3rd. Maybe that the one you're talking about. My photos My Videos
  25. The craziest part of that whole thing is that they were at 1000FT. The pilots tried to break off but those women have strong grips. My photos My Videos
