umm... I'm right around the corner. Do you need a hand with that? You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

After all these years in the Sunshine State, I finally had the opportunity to see a launch from closer than Lakeland. I had an on-site meeting with a client of ours on launch day and was able to watch from about a mile west of the VAB. Truly f'ing spectacular... You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

Congratulations DSE, and good on you! I'm sure you're not only going to have great impact on your students, but also one more avenue by which to have a positive on our sport. I'm honored to share the sky with you and look forward to "being across from you" one day. Clark You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

One more of those "just one more of those Cat C prep dives" and he'd have been missing more than half a nipple. Thanks again, Andy. I know you're right there beside me. Clark You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

Thanks, guys. I appreciate it. It was a lot of bust ass, but my "stu" is the one wearing the bruises this week- especially his left hip. I think he's gonna fit his rig with "dummies" on both sides. He's also suffering from a partially detached nipple from a particularly aggressive rollover. Hey, we had to get a handle on something, right?

Heal well and quickly, BV. Back and neck injuries suck major ass- no need to tell you. On the lighter side, I hope I have the opportunity one day to hear your daughter's side of the story. She'll bust you out and then, I suspect, we'll get the "rest of the story". Did you do a thorough gear check? Clark You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

and please do get it on video cause arc flash is cool to watch - from many yards away It certainly illustrates the point well A few years ago, we had the opportunity to rebuild the electrical service/MCC/distribution in a major hospital in So. Florida. Utility's jacks never opened and the entire distribution gear vaporized as the (end) result of a short to ground caused by untrained personnel. Unfortunately, they weren't able to shed any light on the cause of this event. It is amazing that that quantity of copper and steel can virtually disappear You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

+1 from here... 400A@480VAC equates to roughly a 350 hp motor. That'll set you back a few jump tickets, amigo. And no, even with a flux capacitor, ya can't "rob" 120 volts from there. A properly located and installed CPT might get you where you want to go, but as the safety geek for the outfit I work for I'd seriously advise staying away. Also- get your NFPA 70E guide out and equip yourself with the proper PPE/AFC. sheesh... I can never tell when you guys are yankin' chains.

My mom kept mine and my brother's baby teeth in baggies and are in our baby books. I love that she did that and will never toss them.

Sheeeesh, this brings back memories... Back in the day when I was working/living in Sheffield, AL, wine, cheetos, and a porn movie were the nightly ritual- until I ended up at the walk in clinic. Apparently I developed some allergy or something. They said the wine was making my uhh, "thingy" turn orange. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

Did ya hear about the gay termite? He only ate mail boxes. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

I have a dish of fresh fruit (pear and peach) in front of me this morning. I also robbed a dollop of some very pricey and very tasty balsamic from my stash at home this AM to dip the fruit in. Yum! You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

OMG! of course i will.. i really wasn't expecting this...over the forums, no less. i'm thinking a winter wedding..december maybe Be careful there, Billy. I suspect she only wants you for your Alabama Cruise Liner. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

I buy from these people frequently. I did a quick search of their comedy stuff and found some Lewis Black, but didn't go further. You're a big Turtle... Clark You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

One of the published side effects of Chantix is "vivid" dreams. It is also the only side effect I've experienced so far. So, in the past week I've had two dreams where I attended boogies that were held entirely indoors. Packing, boarding the A/C, landing, swoop pond, drinking, you name it-INDOORS. The other thing that stands out is that in both dreams, I was about the youngest person in attendance. That is ummm... not usually the case. Clark You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

Sooo... you stepped in that, didn't you? Busted Billy- I couldn't hold a candle to your posts but you unnerstand I couldn't resist posting that one... yeah? You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

REALLY??? yup, really. Quite common but I didn't want to hang out and meet the critter that had recently passed that mess. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

ummm... not to go Waltappel or Billyvance here, but I'm guessing this is black bear shit then, eh? We stumbled across this in Northern Wisconsin in June. I figured if I hung out here long enough, someone would help me identify it. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

yup, that's the plan, unless icevideot takes me up on the offer I made him. In that case, he'll be there and I'll be ummm, "house-sitting" for him. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

Andy: I wasn't feeling the love here so I took a degree of liberty with your post... Farm, Labor Day, hmmmmm.... may I play? You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

QuoteSorry to hear about this. My prayers go out to the friends and family. I have one thing to say then I am backing out of the room slowly. I am a swooper and have been jumping for over 10years. and have never had a close call to anyone ever under canopy. With close to 4000 jumps. I started swooping with 500 jumps. They can be done safely. But you have to know when to do and when not to. For dropzones that have 180 turn limit to me is just stupid. The 180 has more blind spots than a 270 does. If your restricting the turns they should be 90 only. mmmmkay.. relative newb here, but... please explain to me how a lesser amount of turn to final (expressed in degrees of rotation leading to a final approach heading) can possibly result in more "blind spots" than that of a turn of say, 90 more degrees. Blind spots , as I understand them, are a naturally occurring chink in the human armor, and manifest themselves primarily when one maintains a head-forward/eyes forward position. If those are the "blind spots" you are referring to, please inform me when you are on the same load I'm on; I'll give you all the room you need, plus some. As far as the 180 degree turn rule in the pattern, I, again, disagree with you. It is a degree of control implemented by the DZO, S&TA, or someone with the foresight and authority to see a problem and counter that problem with the least objectionable and (unfortunately) least painful band -aid. Although it is a band-aid, it stil represents an effort. Thank you for your hospitality at your place; I look forward to jumping with all of your group again. It is not my intention to burn any bridges here... I just need to keep on the quest for good information for myself and the family I love. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

Thanks from deep down, Psychobob. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

Nadia- I was hoping you'd post that pic. And what an appropriate shirt Psycho is wearing for that duo. Our group had a blast. Big thanks and props to all those at ECSC who made it all work. It was great to see old friends and meet new ones. Hushpuppy: I'll send footage of the hoop dive in the next couple of days. I've been putting out fires since we got home Monday.
