Sounds good. I wanted to do it last saturday, but I had a race on sunday and decided it was better to postpone it. I'd like to do that ASAP so I can get it out of the way and get my B & C license. Hopefully I'll have enough jumps to get the D before september. ~Chivo

On a different note... Calculus and alcohol don't mix. Never drink and derive!! LOL! ~Chivo

CAKE? Whatchoo talkin bout Willis? ~Chivo

Wow, this is the prolly the longest thread... ok... the longest thread that has no boobies!!! ~Chivo

LOL! I took a snapshot of my development environment and have that as my windows background. When the boss is coming, all I do is press to minimize all the windows. When the background is visible, it looks like I'm actually doing some work... unless they look at the buttons of IE in the taskbar. ~Chivo

DAMNIT! Its been a LONG LONG time since I had Freebirds! About 2 years (since I moved from Austin to LA). I've got to go visit my friends so I can have a few of those! Monster size! ~Chivo

Very nice post... brings back so many memories... from last weekend... and the weekend before that... and the one before that... ~Chivo

Congrats! That should be a relief... plus a lot easier to postwhore! ~Chivo

Nah, I only know enough to get me into more trouble ! LOL! ~Chivo

There's a defective piece of hardware... ...the one between the chair and the keyboard! ~Chivo

I think I know what happened... he and someone else were in a hot air balloon... they were loosing altitude so they threw everything out to minimize weight. They also threw out their clothes. Later they realized that they couldn't get enought lift and they would both die, so they drew matches. Whoever had the short match had to jump. Or something similar? ~Chivo

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!! ROFL!!!! ~Chivo

I was wondering about that same thing. How much time can you breathe the oxygen in the tank if it was full? ~Chivo

Nice, I just did 527,547. ~Chivo

If you believe in fate - Things have a tendency to work out by themselves. If not - prepare yourself for a bumpy ride. ~Chivo

Sweet! Congrats! Was that a layoff? Or voluntary permanent vacations? ~Chivo

I'm going on a trip to vegas for July 4th weekend with 7 whuffo friends. Turns out that all of them want to do a tandem jump!

That, and a copy of bullshit bingo (for the meetings). ~Chivo

I'm curious... How many of the ppl here have a webpage? ~Chivo

Hi everybody, can you post photos of you or someone you know that is wearing an FFX or a FF2 helmet? And if you don't have a FFX or FF2, I'd also enjoy watching pics of any other helmets too. Thanks, Chivo

Can you post pics when you get it? I created a new post for the pics... HERE. I'm still undecided between the FFX and the FF2. I like the FFX because its smaller and its all in one piece, plus I think it looks better than the FF2. On the other hand, the FF2 is more convenient, but it has 2 pieces, and having a 1 piece helmet is prolly safer right? Back to convenient... you can watch the videos and i-link without having to remove the camera from the helmet. What do you guys think? Am I really choosing between safety and convenience? Anybody has an FF2? Can you post pics also... if you can, post some pics with you wearing the helmet. I'm not in a hurry to buy it, since last weekend I passed the 150 jump mark, but I don't want to take too long either. So I'll probably order it when I get to 180 (probably in 4 weeks) and in the 6 weeks it takes to receive it... I'll be past the 200 mark for sure. ~Chivo

Hi Michele, after reading about it, it feels like I was there. Oh wait, I was! I enjoyed meeting you @ 10,000 ft in the Skyvan... just a few minutes before exit. Glad you enjoyed your visit to Perris. ~Chivo

If I was on a similar jump, I'm not sure if I would understand what's the problem while on freefall. How did you get rid of everybody else? What signal(s) did you use? How did you notify your friend that he had to go for silver? On a different note... shit happens. Your reaction to the problem was really good. Everybody on that dive made it safely to the ground. That's all that matters. ~Chivo

The traditional 3-leches is a cake that is soaked in 3 types of milk (whole, sweetened condensed, & evaporated), you can also add white rum and you can substitute the rum for Kalhua or for Baileys (my favorite). It is possible to find the cake in mexican restaurants. So far I had to learn how to make it because the ones I've tried here doesnt taste as good as the ones I had back home (Guatemala). Here's a list of links that have a recipe for the cake... as you can see, the recipes are not exactly the same. If you want my personal recipe I can post it later. http://www.post-gazette.com/food/19990916mailbox.asp http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_11331,00.html http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_21054,00.html http://www.recipecottage.com/mexican/tres-leches-cake02.html Enjoy, ~Chivo

There are a few... like the Dulce de Leche Cheesecake @ Cheesecake Factory or the Cookies & Cream ice cream ...but nothing... NOTHING BEATS the 3-leches (3-milk) cake with Bailey's Irish Cream. ~Chivo
