  1. Did you ever have to replace the batteries in your Prius? "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  2. Actually, America indicated a preference for HRC at the ballot box. The electoral college prefers Trump. America is extremely divided. What America needs is a strong enemy to unite it. Fortunately Trump is working on turning China into just that. Hmmm. It seems that America has had a strong enemy (strong enough that America can't win) for fifteen years. Why has that not united America? "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  3. Beemers "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  4. Who are "you guys"? Ethnic and racial groups insist on these divisive labels. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  5. Then this whole thread is shit-stirring. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  6. No, I'm saying the good Dr. Kallend may have jumped the gun. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy

  8. Snopes says this is not true "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  9. I came late to the party but I do not find that the quoted portions of the CDC study conflicts with the stance that Second Amendment advocates have had since JFK was shot. And there is no spittle on my monitor. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  10. I no longer recognize the country I was born in. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  11. It's them damn Catholics that's done it. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  12. No. On that jump we used sport rigs. (Stacks, no planes.) I gave up on the mesh sliders many years ago. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  13. Best thing I've seen on Facebook in months! "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  14. Stop by for the Memorial Day Boogie and get some lovin from all your buds. Who knows, maybe Richard will even let you pack! "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  15. That was a fascinating show. I find it interesting that we are still finding out things about WWII. The Germans, particularly, were astonishingly adept at warfare, and we Yanks, by contrast, were very clumsy, at first. For example, the Americans couldn't drive Rommel's corps from Africa until we out numbered them 3 to 1 and they ran out of ammo and fuel. Even then we let the Germans get away with all their tanks.

  16. Can you transfer to someplace you'd rather be? Somewhere where you could make a living jumping year round? And don't forget, Chuck, you've got lots of friends at Explore Freefall. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  17. Glad you're sober! "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  18. Had LOTS of pilot chute hesitations with my Wings container and the original pilot chute provided by Wings from the first year I had it. Once, on a CRW jump from 9500 feet, it did not open for 2000 feet! I was rocking and rolling trying to get it out, and I throw HARD every time. I finally got a precision pilot chute and have not had a problem since. Also recently I watched a friend have a pilot chute in tow for at least 1000 ft. (Got it on video.) Relatively new Wings container. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy

  20. Hopefully you just pasted someone's list; whoever made this one is obsessed. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  21. No doubt soon, the USA will send some B-2's to bomb London, our new top secret enemy. We spent all that money on the B-2 bombers, it would be a crying shame not to use them whenever we can. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  22. I don't know anything about betting. What do those odds mean in plain English? "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so." Charles Fort, commenting on the many contradictions of astronomy
  23. I saw the Leap Frogs at one of the WFC take a CRW down plane down so far that one guy damn near hit a trailer. Scared the shit out of me! Now THAT was extreme.

  24. The author seems to downplay the skill needed to land a parachute, but otherwise I think it's about right. I would not rank ordinary skydiving as an extreme sport. Swooping, CRW downplanes, even Mr. Bills make it extreme, of course. "Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so."
