LOL, I was surprised to see it myself! A whole quarter page (pg 8 for all you subscribers, and if your not a subscriber become one NOW! www.blueskiesmag.com) and a nice plug for my fundraising efforts! Are you speaking of the August issue? I haven't received it yet... If not I'll go back and check my July issue.

Funny enough just yesterday we pulled a canopy out of a D bag that's been sitting in the gear room for a long time and no one knew what was in it.... an Espirit 195.

I can't believe no one has said... "Pics or it didn't happen"

John Mitchell is my hero but for a different reason... [reason attached] http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?username=vskydiver

Those are things I would expect from any friend, not just a really good one. Really good friends set you up with their sister or pay for the hooker They also claim to be the driver of said crashed car when you're drunk off your ass and the cops file the accident report.

I have a Dell Mini 9 that I love. It can be had for around $200 usd from the Dell Outlet. And there is a large modding community for it. Running Ubuntu 9.04 on it right now.

Guys that do really cool things like fly fighter jets, personally rescue people (firefighters), travel around the world on a regular basis, or other things you wish you did are only intimidating when they don't care about it. If they aren't humble about it, they are just assholes

01 Suzuki GSX-R 750. I put more miles on it in it's first 4 months than most people put on a car in a year.

Find someone with a lot of issues of Parachutist...

LOL only 5k? Both schools I mentioned are an extra 7-8k but from my research I'm pretty sure I can qualify in either (I'm currently a resident of Oregon while on active duty, and if I pick Utah my enlistment in the guard will qualify me as a resident) I can only imagine the nightmares I'm going to have getting my money from the Veteran Affairs.

I feel you... I'm getting out of the military in 10 months and trying to figure out what I need to do to start school in Fall of 2010... The system is fucked up. Don't even get me started on in-state tuition residency requirements... Right now I'm stuck deciding between Portland State University and University of Utah.

I have never had an issue the few times I've carried on my rig. They do usually wipe it down with some cloth (which I assume is to check for explosives residue...) TSA Website on Parachutes (good to print) http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/assistant/editorial_1147.shtm From Vigil (couldn't find a cypres one but they look the same) http://www.vigil.aero/files/1997.pdf

Huh? Don't you mean "two" kinds of people? Nope. Well he is correct also. "10" can be replaced by "two" but it makes the joke not funny

Have you met Bolas? Nope ... but I will ... in 2 days time ... and if this freak tries to pull something funny, he's got something else coming ... I don't care how big he is ... O Well last time I saw him he was running around the bar with a bucket tied to his head... or maybe that is just the last part of the night I remember...

Aren't you curious about where your family originally comes from? Nope, I already know a bunch of the places that they do come from but there is a lot more that I don't know and never will... off the top of my head I can list Scotland, England, Spain, Native American... But like I said, it isn't important. Why does my ancestors culture mean anything to me? It's not my culture. That is not to say that those cultures aren't interesting. But I have never cared where I came from, only where I am going. Maybe because I've never lived in one area (around the country) for more than a few years, and my ideas on family also tend to be different than most people also.

That is all Eastern European... I'm just sayin' Me, I'm American... I don't particularly care about anything before that, because no matter how you cut it, America is the most diverse country.

Have you met Bolas?

It is a sad state of affairs but - you should have been doing that already. fortunately, you can leave your wallet laying around here unattended, and not need to worry for something to be gone missing..

How has no one told a binary joke yet? There are 10 kinds of people in the world... Those who understand binary and those who don't

It's a little late for that... http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=3622415;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25;#3627304 http://www.obsessable.com/news/2008/12/22/samsung-tries-to-set-world-record-for-texting-while-skydiving/

Fixed it for ya...

Deschutes Black Butte 21 Porter - a truly amazing porter, aged in whisky barrels. I have to get my hands on some of this... BBP is one of my favorite beers.

No one is asking you how... they are just making a schedule on who gets to call you when

Now is always the time to be strapping a helmet to your head... just not a camera to that helmet Now with that said there is nothing wrong with picking out a helmet now that you will use to carry your camera later. 200 jumps comes pretty fast if you jump on any regular basis.
