  1. That would be shooting themselves in the foot. (I know, they do that alot already). I would be dropping my membership if that is the case. j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  2. I love Tony! Funny thing, I did a NASCAR driving Experience at Talladega Super Speedway this weekend. Definately not my last either. (168.99 mph was my fastest speed) I had the same sensation as my first skydive. J Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  3. A better locations for this "community center" would be Guantanamo Bay. J Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  4. My cat brings me live animals ususally birds. She like to release them in the house. She did this the last time we were gone for a week and there was bird crap EVERYWHERE! The cat enjoys watching us chase the bird around the house. She only plays with live things, has no interest in it once it is dead. I thought about getting a small kiddie pool and filling it with gold fish or guppies for her enjoy. j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  5. I was SOOOOOOO not goin there.... wanted to.. but.....nope... not goin there. LOL. It took me a while....fought it...but I lost the fight and went there. j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  6. Has Shana Richardson been nominated yet? j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  7. Skydive Twin Cities. (actually in Baldwin, WI - just past Hudson) I trained there almost 15 years ago. It is a very nice dropzone. I have never heard of Minnesota Skydiving. Looks like a skyride website and no address. BEWARE OF ANY WEBSITE THAT DOES NOT GIVE YOU A PHYSICAL ADDRESS. I don't think Minnesota Skydiving exists (as a dropzone). Good Luck.

  8. PA Yes Billy is welcome at most dz's. S&TA should lose his S&TA appointment do to bad judgement. Okay, it happens, if it really was the wind. Not the best thing to do. It's false advertising...that's the problem. Apparently there were more than a few. ROFLMA Have a nice day.
  9. It means that someone just isn't getting it and/or they are very unsafe skydiving and should take up bowling. j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  10. Well, Joel is in Iraq, and Jeffery is busy flying a Hornet, and I'm not talking the canopy or the insect. The weather is looking good for the weekend so there may be no need for a pumpkin drop. Gonna miss you Billy. You really need to make it up sometime soon. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  11. This is just a awesome time! I am soooo looking forward to it and seeing everyone from out of town. Johnny Meyers Firesworks are the BEST! Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  12. hahaha. No one has to make up shit on skyride and their affliated dz's doing bad things. Do you think all the negative factual posts are trolls? Billy and Jeff have never hid, unlike many skyride supporters on here. Maybe you are the troll here. Who are you really? j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  13. I do, and don't have a problem with it, since I don't rely on any skydiving income for housing, food, transportation, health insurance, etc. I think they need to be more concerned with the guy that "has" to make a buck off them for shelter, food, transportation, etc., but that's just my opinion. j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  14. I already pay the USPA too much. Would this organization be non profit? Would it be free? As with any job anywhere, in any industry, if you don't like the pay, go get a different job. If you don't like the company you work for, go get a different job. It is well know that if you try to make a living skydiving, you should be prepared to live below the poverty line. That is not the case for all, but many. J Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  15. Yes. I realize not all states have drivers education, but I don't think its any worse than what I had to watch in drivers ed. Why do people want to pussy foot around this? Do they not want to keep their kids alive? I hate to scare people straight but you gotta do what you gotta do. Personally I think that it should be viewed by everyone before they get their drivers license. Granted the state I live in made texting while driving illegal...it hasn't stopped. j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  16. really? did you set it and forget it or do you try to adjust it everytime? I set mine and haven't touched it again, I probably have a thousand jumps on it and have never had any problems. J Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  17. I made my very first skydive out of the Beaver back in 1997 and many jumps after that. I love that plane.
  18. Why would ANY nomal decent person want to go jump at a place that thinks it funny to advertise a picture of someone dead pet, for anything. What a bunch of sick wierdo's. What kind of people do that? Not only is it very sad, but very sickening. J Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  19. yes, still on the air but no longer plays music video's. Just a bunch of really stupid reality shows. Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  20. you may be able to accomplish all this SAFELY and considerately, but so many others cannot. I would be for a complete ban on cell phones while driving. j Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  21. We refer to them as the kids since at one time or another someone has asked us, either me or Jenn or other more "mature" jumpers if K8bug was my daughter. The best was when Jenn's son refered to Chris as my daddy. Can't wait to see you! Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  22. We have 2. I think both have been re-enforced with foam. We will bring them out. J Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  23. Billy, those excuse are pretty lame. What kind of skydiver are you to let a little back pain, family, roofing, and what not hold you back. Heal quickly Billy and as soon as the kids are big enough they can lug around the big ladder...that's what kids are for isn't it...free labor?

  24. Yeah Mark! Looking forward to seeing you. You really need to come up more often. Judy Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  25. LOL! no, I don't believe he is allowed. Howard's been there several times this year and Danny is a regular along with Alan and Trixie. Looking forward to seeing you bugman. J Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
