  1. Maybe you should leave your car at home and take a cab when you go out. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  2. Theives need their fingers cut off not broken. Broken fingers heal. Missing fingers don't grow back. when they look at the stubs maybe they will remember why they are gone. Just my opinion. I hate theives! I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  3. I,m very surprised that any dropzone would charge you to leearn to pack. If you can't find someone to teach you for free and you want to pay money to learn, invest in Billy Webers film PACK LIKE A PRO. $20 in para gear. Or get the Survival Series which includes 5 different films with pack like a pro for $60 I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  4. Nobody asks me stupid questions when I'm in freefall or under canopy. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  5. I've just ordered a new Rat Hat from Bonehead. Because I want the helmet for this weekend and the small has to be ordered special, I ordered a medium so I can have it in 3 days. The small is for head size 21 3/4 to 22 1/2. The medium is for 22 1/2 t0 22 3/4. My head is 22 in. I'm looking for feedback from anybody out there that may be wearing one a little larger than normal. I figure that the difference will not be that extreme. And if I have to I can pad it just a bit. Also how do people like the Rat Hat overall? I know that you bake them and mold it to your head so we will see. Any comments will be appreciated. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.

  8. What did on canibal say to the other while eatin a clown? Does this taste funny to you? I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  9. Take vitamine B 3 complex morning abd night for a week. Then on the morning of your test do a B 3 and a multiple vitamine so that you have some specific gravity in your urine. Lots of water. LOTS. Cranberry juice will help also. I've never had a positive test. The best way tho is just dont smoke for a month or so. It might suck but you wont piss positive.

  10. I have to agree with MB38. SELF PACKING. Oh, and make that under 5 min. so I can make every load. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  11. Tell them that there is no such thing as a pefectly good airplane, and that is why parachutes were invented. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.

  13. I do'nt believe that child molesters can be rehabilitated. They should be executed. I had a childhood friend that grew up to be a CM. Confessed to molesting his own children. He spent maybe 6 mo. in a pre release. No real time. I grew up with him and still feel he does not deserve to live. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  14. What did the red neck say just before he died? Hold my beer, I want to try something. What ddid the red necks friend say to him just before he died? You're doing it man, you're doing it. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.

    Would you?

    If they will do it once they will do it again. I had it happen yrs ago and gave her a second chance. That was my mistake. My current wife is the best thing that ever happened in my life, but if she cheated on me, there would be no second chance and she knows that.

  16. I've never been a fair weather rider myself. Not that I like riding in inclimate weather but I lived in England for 3 years and if you dont ride in the rain, you dont ride. I also live in Montana and several years back thought I was pretty bad-ass and rode my Harley year round. Ice, snow, rain, sleet, you name it. I've gotten wiser over the years tho. Now I only ride in bad weather if I get caught in it. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  17. I'm 46 years old and my Dad turned 69 in March. If when I'm his age I am as well respected and liked as he is I will feel as though I've accomplished all that I need to in my life. I love him with all my heart. For his birthday this year my wife and I gave him a tandem skydive. Do to the weather we have had to postpone the jump. Untill yesterday that is. We got it done on fathers day. (fitting) He loved it and says he will try another one. Thanks dad for all you've done for me. He bought me my first parachute toy at the age of 6. The rest is history. I also want to thank Hod and Tina Sanders of Skydive Montana for making my dads birthday and fathers day so memorable. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  18. what a great idea, and what an idiot the person was to fall for it . Way to go. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  19. Pretty cool. Never believed that 13 and 666 crap so way to go. Oh yea, our UPS drivers licsence plate is 666, but he,s not so scary. Anyway conrats on 300 and what beautiful scenery. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  20. Last summer I was on a load in a C-206. There was a tandem and 3 jumpers ahead of me. The tandem went and 2 jumpers followed to swoop them. The jumper ahead of me was going to do a poised exit with me to dive after and swoop for a 2 way. Just as he is starting to crawl out I catch his bridle out of the corner of my eye and turn to see his pilot chute blowing behind me in the rear of the plane. I insantly grabbed his shoulder and pilot chute at the same time and pulled him back in as I had his pilot chute wadded up in my hand. I handed it to him and he shuffled to the back as I exited and he rode the plane back down. I'm thinking I did the right thing as if I had shoved him out he could hve wrapped around the tail. Any way it was sure an eye opener And I'm always looking for that kind of thing now. He was quite thankfull when he got to the ground. Probably would have bought me a beer but both of us are non drinkers. Just knowing that I kept him from being hurt or worse was a great feeling tho.

  22. My dad bought me my first parachute toy when I was about 6. I wore it out in no time flat. Then started jumping off the porch roof with a sheet untill mom put a halt to that. In 1973 I seen the Golden Knights jump at the National Scout Jamboree in Idaho. I always knew I would do it someday. In 2002 Myself, my wife and 10 other friends did our !st tandem jumps At Skydive Montana in Stevensville. Out of the 12 I'm the only one who continued. I've been completley addicted ever since. I will continue till the day I die if possible. Or untill I'm dangerous to other jumpers. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
  23. I've badly sprained both of my ankles over the years and torn ligaments on both also but only once skydiving. But because of these injuries I have weak ankles and so now I use ankle braces on both on every jump. There are some nice ones out there that your shoes will slip right over. So I get the traction of my tennis shoes but still have my support. Check the selection at Walmart. Cant remember the brand but they are black in color and consist of elastic and velcro. They work great. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.
