  1. Fuck that... Get out... Use your clearance to get a job with one of the big Defense or intelligence agencies as a contractor. Send me your resume. I can hook you up with something. 70k at an absolute minimum. Do you have Unix experience? an MCSE? any cisco experience? If so it'll be more like 90. With good unix experience it would be even more.
  2. You are right... He doesnt know shit.. He's only been at it 40 years. Hes just out to fuck everything up. Retard.
  3. Rummy is a beast.. We are lucky to have someone with his experience as the Secretary of Defense..
  4. Nair your balls! It burns like hell for a while but after the skin grows back they will be nice and smooth
  5. She is fucking several other people and is looking for an out... You are so screwed dude. I hope you didnt buy her anything expensive throught the course of your relationship.
  6. I couldnt read my altimeter my first 3 jumps in AFF... Sounds weird but I was so amped in freefall that I couldnt focus on the numbers... Needless to say I had to redo one of the jumps.. After I chilled out everything went well. Just relax some.. People kept telling me that in AFF and I didnt understand how powerful that advice actually is.
  7. If they were swooping the mouth of a volcano maybe...
  8. There may well be people who don't know how to do them or don't understand the importance. But I think there are even more people who think PLFs are not cool. Their jumpsuit might get dirty or muddy. Their buddy will probably tease them when they get back to the hangar. I realize I've made this point already, but I'm going to make it again because I think *that's* the problem, especially for licensed jumpers, not lack of training. If they are afraid to PLF because someone will bust their balls if they dont land standing up. then they do not understand the importance of it.
  9. No shit... But wouldnt it be nice if you knew what to do if you flared to high or to low? christ. My point was people do not fully understand the importance of the PLF. Which is why you see all these people healing from an incident when they flared to high or to low..... I have seen a canopy fold up at 50 ft or so... The guy under canopy was a paratrooper and he PLF'ed... He got up cursing.. I carried his ruck because the side he landed on was pretty banged up but he was ok. Most people flare at 10ft and too often break something they could have prevented with a decent PLF. I was simply asking how much time people spent in their ground course training on PLF's. Savvy?
  10. I disagree... If you have that sort of experience ie 1000+ jumps things that are wrong jump out. They no longer need to be looked for... You or I actually need to look for things that are wrong. Because it isnt second nature to us yet. Just because they seem complaciant doesnt mean they arent vigilant.
  11. Republicans arent the evil, warhungry sonsofbitches the media makes us out to be... The less government regulation the better! And No I dont want to pay for your health care! Get a job!
  12. Deterence is a purpose. Death would be a great deterent to this sort of crime. I gurantee you it would happen less if we started killing child molesters.
  13. ROFL! Just a small tube... It was in a drawer
  14. OK, well some people don't know how to take a joke. You might know more about this guy than anyone else, but most seem to think it was a joke...Maybe a joke in poor taste, but still a joke. His "Interests" section also has a clue to his nature: While I think he might very well consider fornification an interest of his....I also see it as a joke. I also doubt anyone that beats their significant other would be so stupid as to brag about it in an open forum. I also wish that anyone so stupid to beat their significant other DOES brag about it in an open forum so it can be used against them and they can go to jail and be treated just as they treat others. But in this case I think he was just joking. I could be wrong. lmao... I was kidding about the punch. I hope she chills out about it. Maybe talks to her friends and they laugh etc.... I laughed when she told me she found it... I saw it as funny. She freaked... Which was quite surprising...
  15. Do women not know men jerk off? She was really upset.... Funny thing is thats all I have... I dont have any porn mags or anything.. all she found was lube. big fucking deal right? Wrong.... She freaked out and said "If i found something like that without even looking I'm scared of what I would find if I actually looked." christ man... What should I do? I punched her in the face but that didnt solve the problem.. Advice?

    The Move

    Pack? Dig the hole? Shoot myself? Which one do you recommend, Mr. Hawkins? rl Pack, of course!
  17. cool thanks! Speaking of contact the dealers.. Do you have any in stock? lol
  18. I need a jumpsuit and I dont want to pay $400 and I dont want to wait 6 weeks.... Freefly preferably or a really baggy RW. What options do i have?
  19. Softer = Slower right? You are right there is no info on that site.
  20. So you think doing a PLF is easier facing straight forward, then at a slight angle such as 30-45 degrees? Hmmm.... Be safe Ed Its not always at a slight angle. When jumping rounds if the wind is really strong and you havent pulled your slips correctly you could still be rocking back and forth going at a 90 degree angle to the left or right... Under a square you'll be going straight ahead... It isnt terribly difficult to turn your body in that direction and i think the PLF is much cleaner having forward speed.
  21. Todays student canopies have a forward speed and approach. Sometimes not enabling the student to get into the best PLF position. I think its a little bit easier to get into a good plf position under a square simply because you are always going to be going forward like you just said... Much easier to set up a good roll. Instead of fighting oscilation while drifting to the left etc. But this is coming from my 30 square parachute jumps and 37 round parachute jumps of experience.. I could be completely wrong
