You can pick your point about which to rotate (Head, belly button, knee, foot), but the attached is always a good drill. Stay in the center. Make the turns crisp. Make the stops full. See the attached. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Sounds slow. That's about 330 fpm. Was in a Caravan in FL over the 4th (read hot and humid). We got ~900 - 1000 fpm for the first 4 - 5000 feet, then slowly deteriorated back to about 500 - 600 fpm above 10,000 ft. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

I dislocated my shoulder on a 3-way hybrid jump. I was ignorant. They were unskilled. I had no idea what happened, but when I looked to where I thought my arm should be, it wasn't. I thought it came off. It was my left shoulder, so I deployed my main easily. I was definitely not thinking straight. I thought that if I really put my mind to it, I could do one good flare with that arm. That was my plan for landing. It didn't work out well. Hit hard while turning, PLF'd, and rolled for a short distance. Got a ride to the hospital, waited for about an hour, then they came in, gave me Propafol. I never went out, but I didn't care. Props to MJ on that one. It is wonderful stuff. Don't know how or what they did, but they put my arm back in. Went to rehab for about three weeks and didn't get better. Went to a surgeon and he did MRIs. Everytime he saw me after that he said the same thing, "Massive tear of the rotator cuff." He loved the word massive. Surgery to repair. Did supervised rehab for about 12 weeks. Continued after that on my own. Took a full year before I could jump again. I still see small improvements and doubt I will ever be at 100%, but I am good enough. I still jump every weekend. Good luck with your rehab. The spider walk up the wall really does help. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Location for the new one? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

And, still a Chief. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

So, after pooching the first one, someone thought that doing one from a lower altitude with less time and more stress would help you nail it? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

At a large multinational aviation-oriented corporation, the technique was to call the individual on Sunday night and tell them not to come in the next day . . . or ever. "You can pick up your stuff at the front gate." All class. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

It's all incredibly flat. And the FL panhandle is longer than most people think. At least to Biloxi you may have some coastal views. Destin has some great beaches and the sand is like sugar. Passing P-Cola you could always stop at the Florabama, Jimmy Buffet might be there. Biloxi has casinos and good restaurants, so something to look forward to. Going to Dallas, you have to pass New Orleans. You are a stronger man than I if you can go through there without at least picking up a muffaletta to eat on the go. Try the Central Grocery if you do stop. West of NOLA, it just gets boring. And once you pass Baton Rouge, even worse. Swamp all the way to the Texas line. The road is a lot of causeway and flat enough to be a bowling alley. And this time of year it will be hot and humid. My vote goes to the 850 because of that stretch there. Good luck on that. If you get adventurous with the radio tuner, you may be able to find some Cajun DJ playing zydeco. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Hadn't seen anything posted about the documentary, so here it is. Jeff Tremaine (director) did a nice job on Mat Hoffman on another 30 for 30 doc, so looking forward to this one. Premieres 30 July at 8:00 eastern time. More info at this site, but also includes some spoilers. http://espn.go.com/30for30/film?page=angrysky Shit happens.

If they lower the standards for Ranger school, I hope they take a look at synchronized swimming, too. I would really like to get some of that action. RLTW Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

I've always respected the advice of Clark Howard for international travel. If you don't see what you want, you go always go to one of his boards. It's kind of like DZ.com, but with money nerds. (They never talk about wing loading. Ever.) Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Assuming he had a standard audible, one alert at 4500 to break off, one at 1500 saying too low/too fast, and one at (pick it) 3000 saying pull now. Why not pull on the second alert? Yep. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Could you define what that means? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

One for the UK fans: The Queen and Kate Middleton are out for a ride in the Queen's Bentley. Suddenly, they are stopped by highwaymen. "Give us all your jewels," they say to the Queen. "I haven't got any jewels," the Queen replies. The highwaymen turn to Kate. "You, you give us all of your jewels!" She also replies, "I haven't got any jewels with me." The robbers look at each other, make the two ladies get out of the Bentley, and steal the car. As the Queen and Kate M are walking down the road, Kate turns to the Queen and says, "Your Majesty, you did have jewels on before we were stopped. What happened to them?" The Queen says,"I took my jewels off and hid them in my vagina. And what about you? You also had jewels on before we were stopped. What happened to them?" Kate responded, "I also hid my jewels in my vagina." The Queen sighed and said, "Too bad Camilla wasn't with us. We could have saved the Bentley." Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Jumped Huey's once a month at Fort Devens, MA with the Trojan Sport Parachute club. Flew Huey's for the 25th Inf Div skydivers in Hawaii. I think they got them about the same frequency. Heard Fort Bragg was the place to be to get helo support. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Kudos to the Golden Knights for getting this done. The professional journalists on GMA? Ask the same questions as any group of wuffos. Appears to have been GoPro Day on show. They had them everywhere. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
