Dude, this is a perfectly normal cost-saving feature. Just swap the pads so that the one with material remaining is on the side that was worn down. You get twice the life out of a set of pads this way. It's the same principle as running your tires under inflated so that the outer edges wear first and then over inflating them so that the center gets the wear.

And that isn't even necessary if you pick the right days. I do at least one naked jump EVERY month, even in the winter ......... in Wisconsin. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

What kind of a tattoo does a cat get? CATCH MICE TO LIVE LIVE TO CATCH MICE or LEGALIZE CATNIP Maybe? Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Thanks. That's good to know. That is in case I'm ever on page 16 of an August issue of Parachutist. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Just out of curiosity, does Parachutist pay for pictures published in association with an article? Say for instance, a snapshot with an article was on page 16 of this month's magazine and I was given appropriate credit. Just a theoretical question. -Jeff.

9 or 10 years ago, I picked up a promotional flyswatter at a county fair. It has no wire, it is one piece of molded black plastic. There is printing on the handle advertising somethingorother. Nine months out of the year, the flyswatter lives in a desk drawer, undisturbed. Undisturbed, but not idle. When I go to use it for the first time each summer, the flyswatter is coated in a very fine, rust colored powder. I clean it off, every year, and each spring, there it is, coated again. The powder emanates from the flyswatter itself, nothing else in the drawer has any of this powder on it at all. One winter I put it in a different drawer to see if that made a difference. Nope. Same thing, the flyswatter is coated, nothing else is affected at all. Anybody here have a clue as to what this phenomenon is? This happens year after year. I thought maybe some kind of release agent, but you would think that it would have run out by now. Hey, is "Ripley's Believe it or Not" still around?

Um, no, no-one stated any such "requirement". Do tell. Does it involve drinking vodka and toasting Stalin, or something? At Rantoul we had to join an AN2 jumpers club in order to be crew members so that we could jump an experimentally flagged aircraft. The jumps were termed "exhibition" jumps. Included with the membership was an official uniform. OK, it was a T-shirt with a picture of an AN2 on it. But they were "uniform". I wonder how you all worked around it. -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

And just for the record, this particular AN2 has been jumped nekked. Didja happen to notice the radio hookup? At Rantoul they had a modern radio hooked up with alligator clips to an automobile jumper pack for power. Something about different voltages. Guess that's where the "Experimental" label comes from. Did you all have to join a "club" to jump it? -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Not to mention expensive. Those things ain't cheap ! -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Here's my kid. (The one who is not Bart Starr.) -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

I have my main set with a fair amount of slack. I tend to be lazy with extending my arms. So, the brakes are set so that in my "lazy" position, the lines are "taut". The canopy has plenty of flare range so I'm not missing anything at the bottom end. -Jeff. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

It took me half a minute to figure out that she wasn't carrying a flat-based object in her left hand.

Not only is it against 8(b) of the flag code "The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground .....", it also is in violation of 8(i) which says "The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever."

And yes, it is an .............. Pic of the day Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Now is that ground spped or air speed? Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

I use the ROL pouch for my shorts. As a matter of fact, I ordered my new rig with a ROL pouch on each leg. That way, I can carry a cell phone along, too. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Interesting, I think I've read this before. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

But then it ain't a naked jump. You are just wearing an extra small jumpsuit. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Remember. If you wait until the last minute, it only takes a minute. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Excuse me but didn't you see the movie, Drop Zone? They had rigs that not only made it through airport metal detectors, you couldn't see the bulk when they all got on the plane. It was in a movie, it has to be true. Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

I don't get it. Where does the jumper sit? Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving

Red Bastien Hercules Cortez and of course, who can forget the favorite TV opponent, George "Scrap Iron" Gadaski. Did he ever win a match? Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving
