  1. A WINNER after only 4 tries!!!
  2. Fun is jumping. Hapiness is dinner on the patio in summer with my wonderful wife and daughters.
  3. That kind of stuff happened all the time in the office where I used to work. Is civilization doomed??
  4. Call the manufacturer and ask them if they have any slip over leg pads. I am having the same problem and called Altico today. Mike spent about a half hour with me on the phone. He maded them up today and they are already on the way.
  5. \\Sounds normal to me. Enjoy it.
  6. What does that even mean? It means I'm jumping Mike Mullens' King Air tomorrow!!! Yeee Hawww
  7. Wow!! Explanation: Expression (non-threatening) intended to convey my feeling of growing excitement.
  8. Am I going to have to explain every post?? Joe said "Midwest Legend Jimmy Coiner" would be there so I said this Arkansas Nobody (ME) was going to be there, too. It was the juxtaposition of "Midwest Legend" and "Arkansas Nobody" along with the self-depreciation of drawing attention to my lack of experience that was intended to be slightly humorous. Sorry. It won't happen again.
  9. I really don't know what you are talking about here, you seem to have lost me. If you read my post it would be rare for me to use the f-bomb so your statement is confusing to me and as far as my talent. do you even know me to make judgement on my talents, because I don't know you. I would have contacted you in a pm, but you do not have that activated in your profile. Joe Whoa!!! No offense intended. I was directing that comment at Fletch, the originator of this thread. I was referring to an earlier conversation we had. Inside joke and all that stuff.
  10. Bill, I have a PD 9 cell 230. I weigh 195. The canopy has about 80 jumps on it. How many do you think it has left? Thanks
  11. The constitution protects the individual from the tyranny of the majority.
  12. See, you said all that stuff without saying the F-word. I'm telling you, you ought to write up the boogie when it's over. You've got talent. (for writing, that is) Ken
  13. You're right, Kallend. However, how many civilians were saved by the death of him and three civilians? US Troops were apparently 5 minutes away. And the house was under US surveillance. Why not at least attempt to take him alive? Callous indifference to civilians never used to be the American way. You question is valid, but I don't know enough to answer that.
  14. Then again, maybe there's nothing we can do about WWII without a time machine, and maybe one of the lessons of the 20th Century is we've learned better than to butcher civilians to further our political ends. You're right, Kallend. However, how many civilians were saved by the death of him and three civilians?
  15. Civilians were killed by the millions in WW2. I don't here anyone bitching about that. Maybe it's because GWB wsn't involved.
  16. What's the worst? Mine's an air raid siren.
  17. I love reggae, but am confused about it's derivatives: Ska Reggaeton Dance Hall Can anyone tell me what characterizes these three styles of music?
  18. It looks like it will be too windy to jump tomorrow, but.... "You won't know, if you don't go."
  19. There was a guy I worked with years ago that made a mistake that cost me dearly. I came very close to verbally giving him what he deserved. I figured it didn't matter because I was leaving the company anyway. I knew I would never have any contact with him again Two months ago he called and told me about an incredible job opportunity that would allow me to get away from the stress factory I was working at and work from home. Between the loss of the commute time and the constant overtime, I have gained back 800-1000 hours of free time per year. I now have time to skydive and I can honestly say that the job change has been one of the most life altering events I have ever experienced. If I had told him off, it would never have happened. ALWAYS take the high road.
