BoomerdogQuoteShots fired! Laugh
Lawyers lives matter! -
billvon>Yep- it all depends on who they want to shake down.
And whose favor they want to curry.
I see what you did there. -
I have never in my life seen so much sex spam anywhere as I have on DZ.com's mail service. You'd think skydivers were all a bunch of notorious degenerate perverts.
Oh... -
Don't taze me, bro. -
brenthutch***Not to be a douche about it, ]
Too late!
D'ohh!! -
aphid***If it wasn't for Pocahontas, we'd all be named John Smith.
That's funnier than most here can fully appreciate.
Posting, as high art form, requires doing one's homework. -
Not to be a douche about it, but Democrats refer to their party as the DemocratIC party, and the adjective form of Democrat is, also, DemocratIC. Always been that way. The ephithet "Democrat party" is a Republican asshole-ism. -

I looked up the German word for troll. Apparently, it's "troll". Go figure. -
SkyDekker***If it wasn't for the US, you guys would all be speaking German today.
If it wasn't for Europeans, you would be sleeping in a tent, sticking feathers in your hair.
You mean instead of the indigenous peoples of the American continents having been subjected to genocide? Seems like a pretty good deal. -
QuoteI've never heard a GOOD reason to automatically throw away either handle when you cutaway.
With "piggyback" equipment (both main & reserve on back), agreed.
Back when you & I were trained on chest-mounted reserves (which were free-packed, to boot), my DZs taught students to throw away the main ripcord before reserve deployment to avoid possible reserve entanglement with a main ripcord still partly in its housing. -
Skyrad***I've interviewed all 4 black skydivers in the world, and they agree that the average white guy is more more likely to get killed skydiving than the average black guy.
Black men can't jump
What about tennis? White people are a whole lot more likely to die playing tennis than black people. And those poor souls - the tennis players, that is - are supposed to be "privileged"? Hardly, but the tragedy is never reported. Where's the outrage? -
Yawn.
Troll. -
rushmc***I have to admire the way you get ordinarily intelligent people to keep arguing with you.
And here you are!
I am not! Show me a post where I said....
D'ohh!! -
The cure for careless packers is simple: once a day, they must take a high-performance canopy with a high wing loading, pack it (come hell or high water) within 3 minutes, and then jump it themselves at terminal, pulling no higher than 2500. That'll learn 'em some religion. -
QuoteSo which side are you arguing now,
What does it even matter any more? -

I agree you should talk to your CCI (or whomever would be the equivalent of an S&TA in the US).
But your mention of being a "new jumper" raises the question: are you worried that, not being a "senior" jumper, you'd be either ignored or ostracized? If so, do you trust your CCI to keep the source of his info (i.e., you) confidential? -

QuoteBut in the end that is what he proposes (backdoor)
What a dirty ole basterd!
Not that there's anything wrong with it. -
Coreeece***"I do not believe that just because you're opposed to abortion, that that makes you pro-life. In fact, I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed. And why would I think that you don't? Because you don't want any tax money to go there. That's not pro-life. That's pro-birth. We need a much broader conversation on what the morality of pro-life is."; Sister Joan Chittister, Benedictine order.
Now that's pretty low...stealing a straw man from a little old nun.
I have it on good authority that he knocked her down and stole her rosary, too. -
oldwomanc6I'm curious just what laws this guy broke by parking it there. The article doesn't say.
Yeah not very good reporting, especially given his comment on people parking their boats. -
Oh, I presume they did, too. Did they do so in writing? Not just generally, but every bit and nuance of it? Because if not, it could be an interesting he-said/she-said. And gosh!- that's what juries are for, aren't they?

Hey, I mean... consultations are free, right? -
SkyDekkerQuoteThere is no fix for the easy access to guns that exists in America.
There is a fix. There just isn't an easy or palatable fix.
Wolverines!!
Longmont City Council will take up skydiving noise
in General Skydiving Discussions
You're presuming a rational thought process. That doesn't apply to this personality type. A mere lack of funding will not stop this type of... patient. See, for illustration, the last paragraph of Post #1067
